©2010 GPS Logic LLC. All Rights Reserved.
This manual covers the operation of the GPS Logic Logic-5000 CDMA Cellular Modem.
Specifications described are typical only and are subject to normal manufacturing and
service tolerances.
GPS Logic LLC reserves the right to modify the equipment, its specifications or this manual
without prior notice, in the interest of improving performance, reliability, or servicing. At the
time of publication all data is correct for the operation of the equipment at the voltage
and/or temperature referred to. Performance data indicates typical values related to the
particular product.
No part of this documentation or information supplied may be divulged to any third party
without the express written consent of GPS Logic LLC.
Products offered may contain software which is proprietary to GPS Logic LLC or partner
companies. The offer or supply of these products and services does not include or infer any
transfer of ownership.
1.2. Modem Use
The GPS Logic Logic-5000 cellular modem is designed and intended for use in fixed,
nomadic, or mobile applications. “Fixed” assumes the device is physically secured at one
location and not easily moved to another location. “Mobile” assumes the modem is
physically secured in a vehicle and is operated when the vehicle is moving. “Nomadic”
assumes the modem is installed in a vehicle but is operated when the vehicle is stationary.
Please keep the cellular antenna of the Logic-5000 radio modem at a safe distance from
your head and body while the modem is in use (see below).
Caution: Maintain a distance of at least 20 cm (8 inches) between the transmitter antennas
and any person while in use. This modem is designed for use in applications that observe
the 20 cm separation distance.
1.3. Interference Issues
Avoid possible radio frequency (RF) interference by following these guidelines:
The use of cellular telephones or devices in aircraft is illegal. Use in aircraft may
endanger operation and disrupt the cellular network. Failure to observe this
restriction may result in suspension or denial of cellular services to the offender,
legal action or both.

Do not operate in the vicinity of gasoline or diesel-fuel pumps unless use has been approved
and authorized.
Do not operate in locations where medical equipment that the device could interfere with
may be in use.
Do not operate in fuel depots, chemical plants, or blasting areas unless use has been
approved and authorized.
Use care if operating in the vicinity of protected personal medical devices, i.e., hearing aids
and pacemakers.
Operation in the presence of other electronic equipment may cause interference if
equipment is incorrectly protected. Follow recommendations for installation from equipment
manufacturers.
1.4. FCC Notification
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following
conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must
accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance
could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user
is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

LAN: Input for standard or crossover Ethernet cable.
USB: Connection for USB Client port. USB is not supported at this time.
COM: Standard RS-232 port for debugging and maintenance only.
ANT: TNC female, primary antenna connection. See section “Antenna options” for more
information.

2.8. Antenna Options
Antennas are available for Logic-5000 radio modems installations from GPS Logic.
Page 9 of 59

2.8.1. Primary Cellular Antenna
The Logic-5000 product requires a multi-band cellular antenna for operation in the 800 MHz
band, the 1900 MHz band, and the 2100 MHz band. The primary antenna connection on the
Logic-5000 unit is a TNC female connector; therefore you must purchase an antenna with a
TNC male connector. Do not select a TNC antenna with “reverse polarity” or RP-Male.
Mounting options and cable lengths are the user’s choice and application specific.
Caution: To comply with FCC approval for this device, do not use a cellular antenna with a
gain greater than 5 dBi in the cellular (800MHz) band, or 4 dBi in the 1900MHz band.
2.8.2. RX Diversity Cellular Antenna
The Logic-5000 radio modem RX Diversity antenna has the same requirements as the
primary antenna with the exception of the connection. The RX Diversity antenna connection
on the Logic-5000 product is an SMA female connector; therefore an antenna with an SMA
Male connection is required. Mounting options and cable lengths are the user’s choice and
application specific. For best performance, separation between the Primary and Diversity
antenna should be at least 5/8 wavelength (=8 inches or 20 cm for 915 MHz).
Caution: To comply with FCC approval for this device, do not use a cellular antenna with a
gain greater than 5 dBi in the cellular (800MHz) band, or 4 dBi in the 1900MHz band.
2.8.3. GPS Antenna
The Logic-5000 radio modem’s GPS connector requires an external 3.3V GPS antenna. The
GPS antenna connection on the Logic-5000 product is a female SMA connector; therefore an
antenna with an SMA male connector is required. For best coverage, use an active antenna
with a gain >25dB. Mounting options and cable lengths are user’s choice and application
specific.
2.8.4. WiFi Antenna
The WiFi antenna connection on the Logic-5000 product is an RP-SMA jack; therefore an
antenna with an RP-SMA plug is required. Mounting options and cable lengths are user’s
choice and application specific.
2.8.5. Antenna Spacing
Referring to Figure 4 for illustration, the Logic-5000 radio modem commonly uses four
separate antennas:
“T” - Main transceiver - Constraints are the limit of 20 cm and omni-directional
factors
“R” - Auxiliary receiver – Constraints are the receiver spacing of at least 5/8 λ
(wavelength) from transceiver antenna and omni-directional requirements
