    SAMXT User Guide V1.5 8 The SAMXT TCP/IP Operation The SAMXT has an MCU (Microcontroller) to control the LTE module ME910C1-AU. The SAMXT can be operating in three different modes, defined by the parameter SAMMODE: -SAMMODE=0. The modem is in standard mode. When powered on, the MCU turns on the LTE module, checks its baud rate, turns on the LED and releases control of the LTE module to the connecting device.
