Checking Correct Driver Installation in Device Manager If your driver has been installed correctly, and if you connect your board to a computer, then you can see its name and port number in the Port section. For example, my tracker device is connected to COM7 (Figure 4-5, the actual sequence No. of COM maybe varied).
4.4 Turn on the tracker device Open the rubber plug at the side, press and hold power button for about 4 seconds until the power indicator (RED led on front panel) lights up. 4.5 Open serial command shell Serial Port Utility is a tool help read information and write command between PC and tracker device (TL904D). This chapter will help setup the command shell environment step by step.
Figure 4-7 4) Register Window of Serial Port Utility The main window will show as Figure 4-8, it contains 4 function regions: top toolbar, left sidebar, output region and input region; Figure 4-8 5) Overview of Serial Port Utility Choose correct COM port from left tool sidebar (Figure 4-9), the sequence No. of COM port is got when the driver of USB serial cable is installed success. 【4.3 Install driver for USB serial cable (Windows 10)】 Figure 4-9 Choose correct serial port https://www.
6) 7) Ensure ‘Baudrate’ of the COM port is 115200 bps; Click the start button ( ) on top toolbar of main window, Serial Port Utility will start listening and printing the serial communication between the PC and the tracker device. Figure 4-10 8) ‘Start’ button on top toolbar Click the input region and enter command string here, extra ‘RETURN’ key-in must require at the end of command line (or not the command will be ignored when received by the tracker device).
9) The contents on output region can be saved as file for further analyzing. Click “Settings→Log”, The saved file name and path can be changed as your prefer. Figure 4-12 Figure 4-13 open ‘Settings’ window Settings for saving log message as file 4.6 Configure parameters for data connection APN is the Name of Access Point when attach to cellular service.
1) Configure APN name configset apnname cmnet Note Please replace ‘cmnet’ with your own. 2) Check APN name configset apnname Note Please check the return apnname if it’s the same with your setting.
