GR64 Wireless CPU
.1 About the GR64
The Wavecom Gx64 family of devices are Quad Band GSM/GPRS Wireless CPUs
operating in the GSM 850/900/1800/1900 bands.
These products belong to a new generation of Wavecom Wireless CPUs, and are
intended to be used in machine-to-machine applications and man-to-machine
applications. They are used when there is a need to send and receive data (by SMS,
CSD, or GPRS), and make voice calls over the GSM network.
The GR64 conforms to the European Union (EU) Restriction of Hazardous Substances
(RoHS) directive 00 /95/EC.
The GR64 is available in two hardware variants. Table 1 lists the hardware features for
each variant. The device is available in two hardware variants:
•GR64001. No USB interface or an integrated SIM card holder. VREF is an
output to the application.
•GR6400 . USB interface and an integrated SIM card holder. VREF is on this
variant an input from the application.
Table 1: GR64 HW Variants
Variant VREF Input USB SIM Card Holder
GR64001
No No No
GR6400
Yes Yes Yes
Each hardware variant comes in two software variants. One software variant is
designed to be controlled from a micro-controller situated on the host application.
The other software variant offers the option to run applications embedded onto the
Wireless CPU itself. When using the embedded application version the controlling
script can be run internal to the Wireless CPU, with or without the use of an external
control.
A typical application, involves a micro-controller and a Wireless CPU, in which the
micro-controller sends AT commands to the Wireless CPU via an RS 3
communications link.

. Wireless CPU in a Communication System
Figure 1 and Figure illustrate the main blocks of a wireless communication system
using the Wireless CPU. Figure 1 shows the communication system when the script is
embedded on the Wireless CPU and Figure shows the communication system when a
micro-controller is used. They also show the communication principles of the system
and the interface between the Wireless CPU and the application. The definitions in the
figures, as used elsewhere in this manual, are in accordance with the
recommendations of 3GPP TS 7.007.
The MS represents the Wireless CPU and SIM card. The Wireless CPU excluding SIM
card, is known as the ME.
The DTE (data terminal equipment) is the controlling application. This can be either an
external host or an internal embedded application.
The DCE (data circuit terminating equipment) is the serial communication interface of
the MS.

In accordance with the recommendations of ITU-T (International Telecommunication
Union - Telecommunications Standardization Sector) V. 4, the TE communicates with
the MS over a serial interface.
The functions of the Wireless CPU follow the recommendations provided by 3GPP (3rd
Generation Partnership Project) and ITU-T. 3GPP is a collaboration agreement that
was established in December 1998. The collaboration agreement brings together a
number of telecommunications standards bodies which are known as Organizational
Partners
. The current Organizational Partners are ARIB, CCSA, ETSI, ATIS, TTA, and
TTC.
3GPP specifies a set of AT commands for controlling the GSM element of the Wireless
CPU; these commands are supplemented by Wavecom specific commands.
To find out how to work with AT commands, see the AT Commands Manual.

•CBM (cell broadcast message); a service in which a message is sent to all
subscribers located in one or more specific cells in the GSM network (for
example, traffic reports)
•SMS status report according to 3GPP TS 3.40
The maximum length of a text mode SMS message is 160 characters using 7-bit
encoding. The Wireless CPU supports up to six concatenated messages to extend this
function. Concatenation is performed by the host application.
.3.3 Voice Calls
The Wireless CPU offers the capability of MO (mobile originated) and MT (mobile
terminated) voice calls, as well as supporting emergency calls. Multi-party, call
waiting and call divert features are available. Some of these features are network-
operator specific.
For the inter-connection of audio, the Wireless CPU offers both single ended and
balanced analogue input and output lines. Direct interface to the digital PCM (pulse
code modulation) bus used within the Wireless CPU is available, thus by-passing the
internal analogue circuitry. The Wireless CPUs support HR, FR, EFR and AMR
vocoders.
.3.4 Data
The Wireless CPU supports the following data protocols:
•GPRS (General Packet Radio Service)
The Wireless CPU is a Class B terminal. The Wireless CPU is GPRS multi-slot
class10 (4+ ) enabled, capable of receiving at a maximum of four timeslots
per frame (down link), and transmitting in two timeslots per frame (up link).
See section .3.5 for multi-slot allocation by class.
•CSD (Circuit Switched Data)
The GR64 Wireless CPU is capable of establishing a CSD communication at 9.6
kbps over the air.

the GR64 also supports an on-card SIM. For dual SIM support, automated SIM-
switching is available. Both 3V and 1.8V SIM technology is supported. Older, 5V SIM
technology is not supported.
A mechanical variant of the GS64 also supports an on-card SIM. For dual SIM
support, automated SIM-switching is available. Only one SIM is active at any one

Make sure to order the M M Wireless CPU(s) that are applicable to the needs of the
organization. Also, ensure that the integrator have computer or micro-controller.
The AT command manual provides the necessary command and control reference to
drive the Wireless CPU.
.5 Precautions
The Wireless CPUs are ESD protected up to ±15kV on all .8V IO pins. All other pins
are protected up to ± kV. Integrators must follow electronic device handling
precautions when working with any electronic device system to ensure no damage
occurs to the host or the Wireless CPU. In the section ‘Integrating the Wireless CPU’,
users will find more information about safety and product care. Do not exceed the
environmental and electrical limits as specified in ‘Technical Data’ section.
.6 Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
Users must follow the general usage outlined in this chapter before using the GR64
for any purpose.

• Do not attempt to disassemble the product; only Wavecom authorized
personnel should perform servicing.
.6. Radio Frequency (RF) exposure and SAR
The Wireless CPU device is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver (transceiver).
When it is turned on, it emits low levels of radio frequency energy (also known as
radio waves or radio frequency fields).
Governments around the world have adopted comprehensive international safety
guidelines, developed by scientific organizations, e.g. ICNIRP (International
Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection) and IEEE (The Institute of Electrical
and Electronics Engineers Inc.), through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific
studies. These guidelines establish permitted levels of radio wave exposure for the
general population. The levels include a safety margin designed to assure the safety
of all persons, regardless of age and health, and to account for any variations in
measurements.
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of measurement for the amount of radio
frequency energy absorbed by the body when using a transceiver. The SAR value is
determined at the highest certified power level in laboratory conditions, but the actual
SAR level of the transceiver while operating can be well below this value. This is
because the transceiver is designed to use the minimum power required to reach the
network.
The GR64 Wireless CPU device has been approved for applications where the antenna
is located > 0cm from the body. In all other configurations the integrator is
responsible for meeting the local SAR regulations.
Integrators of the GR64 Wireless CPU device are responsible for ensuring that they
meet the SAR regulatory requirements of the countries in which they intend to
operate the device, and that their documentation contains the relevant SAR
declaration, certification information, and user guidance as appropriate.
.6.3 Personal Medical Devices
Wireless CPU devices may affect the operation of cardiac pacemakers, hearing aids
and certain other implanted equipment. If a minimum distance of 15 cm (6 inches) is
maintained between the GR64 Wireless CPU’s radiating antenna and a pacemaker, the
risk of interference is limited. If the integrator’s application is likely to be situated in
the vicinity of personnel, a suitable warning should be contained in the equipment
manual to this effect.
