2.3.4 Typical Power Consumption This section describes the typical power consumptions of each component of the QPRO modem. Table 1 is a listing of the required input voltage limits and Table 2 gives a break down of the different components of the QPRO. -
Page 12: Power Calculation
** - Relay current is 1A MAX at 25C, .5A MAX at 85C. Power usage depends on customer application. DC Input power to QUAKE QPRO modems is +6.0V to +32.0VDC. Supplied input voltages outside this range will result in damage to the modem and void the warranty. -

External GSM • GSM Serial Port - A QPRO that DOES NOT include an internal GSM module has an option to use an RS-232 serial port to communicate with an external GSM module, or it can be used as an additional serial port with the use of a custom application. For example, the AUX Port could be used for an External GSM: Pins: 5 (Rx), 6 (Tx), and GND (Pin 9, 12, 26, or 35). -

Connecting these pins incorrectly could damage the unit and void the warranty. RS-232 Ports (General) The QPRO has four (4) RS-232 serial ports. The first is the Main Transport Socket (MTS) Port, which implements QUAKE’s Communication Protocol (QCP). The second is the Logger Port. The Logger Port provides the diagnostic data for the user. -
