RUT2CLOUD User’s Manual Introduction RUT2CLOUD evaluation kit has been designed by Rutronik for IoT cloud connectivity projects development and promotion. Low power Renesas Synergy S3A7 MCU and Li-ION battery charger enables the board to be used for portable and battery powered applications.
Fig. 2. RUT2CLOUD Evaluation board’s block diagram. Demo Firmware RUT2CLOUD comes with already preprogramed demo firmware for Telit modem control and sensors monitor via Micro USB port. By default GNSS module is bundled together with modem, thus it can be controlled via xL865 modem.

The “Renesas Flash Programmer (Programming GUI)” and documentation is provided by Renesas. RUT2CLOUD Board has to be set to “USB Boot Mode” before using the application. In order to do that, do the following steps: Install the latest “Renesas Flash Programmer” (it comes with drivers).

Telit GNSS Bundle Solution RUT2CLOUD demo kit’s hardware and firmware is configured to be in “Telit Bundle Solution” configuration by default. Thus Telit GNSS module can be managed using AT commands that are sent to Telit cellular module. In case the configuration has been lost, it can be restored using AT commands sequence written below.
Fig. 10. GL865 V3.1 and SL876Q5-A hardware configuration SIM Card’s Selection RUT2CLOUD Modem has two SIM cards. One is Nano SIM and another is embedded SIM. The analog switch ISL84467 is used to select between SIM cards. Embedded SIM is always selected by default every time the system is powered up.
Though the ISL9203A is capable to deliver 1.5A to the Li-ion battery, the current is decreased to 444mA in order not to overload USB host. If RUT2CLOUD board is powered from external 5V power source or more powerful USB host is used, the current may be increased by changing the resistor R7 value.
