Real Time Clock (RTC) for Saving Date and Time The FASTRACK Supreme has now implemented the Real Time Clock for saving date and time when the Plug & Play is unplugged from the DC power supply through the DC power cable.
4.2.5 SIM Card Lock Feature The FASTRACK Supreme has now implemented a SIM connector having a carrier with lock. This helps ensuring the user to have proper SIM card insertion and locked before proper use of GSM network. SIM card is inserted but not locked. GSM network is SIM card is inserted and being locked properly.
Getting Started 5.1.1 Mount the FASTRACK Supreme To mount the FASTRACK Supreme on its support, bind it using the holding bridles as shown in the Figure 12 below. Figure 12: FASTRACK Supreme mounting For the drill template, refer to Figure 18.
5.1.4 Reset the FASTRACK Supreme To reset the FASTRACK Supreme, a hardware reset signal is available on pin 14 of the Sub HD 15-pin connector (RESET). The FASTRACK Supreme reset is carried out when this pin is low for at least 200 μs.
It is highly not recommended to connect directly the power supply on the battery rather than on the circuit breaker. The FASTRACK Supreme may be damaged when starting the truck if the circuit breaker is switched OFF (in this case, the truck ground and the battery ground will be connected through the FASTRACK Supreme as shown in the figure below).
FASTRACK Supreme Operational Status The FASTRACK Supreme operational status is given by the red LED status located next to the SIM connector on the FASTRACK Supreme panel. The Table 5 below gives the meaning of the various statuses available.
FASTRACK Supreme echo function ( command). ATE1 In a Machine To Machine communication with the FASTRACK Supreme, it is recommended to disable the FASTRACK Supreme echo function ( command) in order to avoid useless CPU processing. ATE0 For further information on commands, refer to "AT Commands Interface Guide"...
(*)For further information on the other possible responses and their meaning, refer to "AT Commands Interface Guide" [6]. Switch between EU/US Band(s) To switch between EU/US band(s) for the FASTRACK Supreme, use a communication software such as a HyperTerminal, then enter command.
Plug & Play initialization. Refer to "AT Commands Interface Guide" [6] for further information on AT commands. Check the Band(s) Selection To check the band selection for the FASTRACK Supreme, use a communication software such as a HyperTerminal, then enter command.
Using the FASTRACK Supreme Plug & Play Verify the FASTRACK Supreme Network Registration 1. Make sure a valid SIM card has been previously inserted and locked in the FASTRACK Supreme SIM card holder. 2. Using a communication software such as a HyperTerminal, enter the following AT commands: to enter PIN code xxxx.
Fastrack Supreme User Guide Using the FASTRACK Supreme Plug & Play If the FASTRACK Supreme is not registered, perform the following procedure: • Check the connection between the FASTRACK Supreme and the antenna. • Verify the signal strength to determine the received signal strength (refer to Section 5.5).
(1*) The command "AT+CMEE=1" switch to a mode enabling more complete error diagnostics. 5.11 Firmware Upgrade Procedure The firmware upgrade procedure is used to update the firmware embedded into the FASTRACK Supreme. That procedure consists in downloading the firmware into internal memories through the RS232 serial link available on the SUB-D 15-pin connector.
No Communication with the FASTRACK Supreme through the Serial Link If the FASTRACK Supreme does not answer to AT commands through the serial link, refer to the table below for possible causes and solutions. Table 12: Solutions for no connection with FASTRACK Supreme through serial link...
Enter again the AT command which previously caused the reception of "ERROR" message in order to get the Mobile Equipment error code. When the verbose error report method is enabled, the response of the FASTRACK Supreme in case of error is as follows: •...
If no success, try bearer selection type by AT command: AT+CBST=0,0,3 If the FASTRACK Supreme returns a "NO CARRIER" message, you may have the extended error code by using AT command . Refer to the table below for interpretation of extended error code.

See paragraph 8.2.1 for more information. 7.3.2 Protections The FASTRACK Supreme is protected by a 800 mA / 250 V fuse directly bonded on the power supply cable. The FASTRACK Supreme is also protected against voltage over +32 V. Filtering guarantees: •...
7.4.2 Autobauding Mode The autobauding mode allows the FASTRACK Supreme to detect the baud rate used by the DTE connected to the RS232 serial link. Autobauding mode is controlled by AT commands. See "AT Commands Interface Guide" [6] for details on this function.
7.4.4 Serial Port Auto shut down Feature The UART1 can be shut down when there is no activity between the DTE and the FASTRACK Supreme Plug & Play. This can help for improving power consumption performance. Serial Port Auto shut down feature is easily controlled by AT command...
Fastrack Supreme User Guide Functional Description General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) The FASTRACK Supreme provides two General Purpose Input / Output lines available for external use: GPIO21 and GPIO25. These GPIOs may be controlled by AT commands: • for a write access to the GPIO value, when the GPIO is used as an output, AT+WIOW •...
The RESET process is activated either by the external RESET signal or by an internal signal (coming from a RESET generator). This automatic reset is activated at Power-up. The FASTRACK Supreme remains in RESET mode as long as the RESET signal is held low. Caution: This signal should be used only for "emergency"...
Fastrack Supreme User Guide Functional Description 7.8.2 Speaker Outputs This connection is differential to reject common mode noise and TDMA noise. Speaker outputs are connected to internal push-pull amplifiers and may be loaded down between 32 to 150 Ohms and up to 1 nF (see details in table Speaker gain vs Max output voltage, in "AT Commands Interface Guide"...
DC power source. 7.10 FLASH LED The FASTRACK Supreme has a red LED indicator to show the status of the GSM network. For detail description of the various status, please refer to Section 5.3. However, during operation mode of Slow Standby, there will be no network registration and so the red LED indicator will always be ON.
Maximum current 2.1 A Peak at 5.5 V. (TBC) Note : The FASTRACK Supreme is permanently powered once the power supply is connected. The following table describes the consequences of over-voltage and under-voltage with the FASTRACK Supreme. Warning: All the input voltages specification described in this Section are at the FASTRACK Supreme input.
