Note: The clock error becomes larger when VBAT is turned off and RTC circuit was supplied from the backup battery or the
external capacitor.

4.5. Serial Port and USB Interface

SIM800H default provides one unbalanced asynchronous serial ports. The module is designed as a DCE (Data
Communication Equipment). The following figure shows the connection between module and client (DTE).

Note: Hardware flow control is disable by default. AT command "AT+IFC=2,2"can enable hardware flow control. AT command
"AT+IFC=0,0"can disable hardware flow control. For more details please refer to document [1].

SIM800H module can support dual serial port function, that need execute AT command "AT+CMNRP=1"first.
Dual serial port including one full modem serial port and one three-wire serial port, pin definition is different with
standard definition of the Figure 2: Pin assignment (Top view) and Table 5: Pin description. For more details
please refer to Document [2].
Note: Only B05 and later version support dual serial port function.
