Package Contents The G24 Developer’s Kit includes the Developer Board, chassis, cover and standard accessories, which enable you to better utilize the board. The kit and its components are described in Table 1-1. Table 1-1: G24 Developer’s Kit Package Contents Description Part No.
The G24 Developer Board is designed to support the hardware and software development and validation of the G24 GSM/GPRS data module. The Developer Board provides a peripheral platform to operate the G24 as a standalone product, and to easily access the G24 70-pin interface connector signals.

Initial Setup The G24 Developer Board enables connection of additional audio devices, which Important: are not supplied with the Developer Kit. These devices are described in “Configuration” on page Figure 2-4: Audio Connectors (Left Side) SIM Card To Insert the SIM Card Note: A test SIM card is provided with the G24 Developer’s Kit.
The Developer Board power On/Off switch (labeled Power ) is located at the rear of the Developer Board. The Developer Board power indicator LED is lit. 2. Turn on the G24 power by pressing the On/Off pushbutton (S110) for at least 0.5 seconds (Figure 2-6).
External DC power source (see “DC Power Source Operation” on page A single power source is used for the G24 and the board peripherals. You must connect the Developer Board to a power source, and then set the power source jumper (P204), if necessary (see “Selecting the Power Source”...
Detection circuit Important: The G24 includes an on-board protection circuit for cases in which the USB connector is connected by mistake to the Wall Mount Adapter connector (J210). If by mistake, the Mini AB USB cable is connected to J210 instead of J380, the on board Wall mount adapter is disabled, preventing unrequired load on the host computer.
Configuration DC Power Source Operation To Use an External DC Power Supply 1. Remove the Developer Board cover. When using the DC power input connectors, the Developer Board cover must be removed. 2. Attach the supplied DC input connectors to the Developer Board (Figure 2-9).
Developer Board. Disconnecting power to the Developer Board is generally used to diagnose a problem that may be caused by the board. This is independent of power supply to the G24, which will continue to receive power. The Developer Board Power jumper (P201)
Each of these serial interfaces is described in the sections that follow. RS232-1 The 9-pin, D-type RS232-1 serial port (J300) is the primary interface to the G24. The G24 UART signals are active-low CMOS-level signals (0-2.7 V), which are converted by the Developer Board to standard RS232 levels for PC communications.
Chapter 2: Developer Board and Interfaces Description RS232-2 The 9-pin, D-type RS232-2 serial port (J330) is the secondary interface to the G24. The G24 RS232 signals are active-low CMOS-level signals (0-2.7 V), which are converted by the Developer Board to standard RS232 levels for PC communications. The RS232-2 Connector...
Configuration Audio Interface The Developer Board includes analog and digital audio interfaces. The audio interface contains a speaker, alert speaker, microphone, and a headset (Figure 2-11). Speaker Connector Microphone Connector Headset Connector Alert Speaker Connector Figure 2-11: Audio Connectors Speaker The Developer Board uses an audio amplifier to amplify the speaker audio output to desired levels.
Grounding switch Audio Source Selection The microphone and speaker audio can be routed through two different sources, the G24 audio amplifiers or the G24 digital audio interface. The Developer Board includes an on board CODEC that converts the G24 digital audio data to analog audio signals.
(Figure 2-12). Figure 2-12: Antenna Connectors (external) On the inside of the Developer Board, the EXT ANT connector is connected to the G24 and the INT ANT is connected to the on-board internal antenna. April 1, 2006...
Configuration To Connect to the Internal Antenna • Connect the EXT ANT and INT ANT connectors with the additional RF cable supplied in the Developer’s Kit (Figure 2-13). Note: This is the Developer Board’s default configuration. The board arrives with the EXT ANT and INT ANT already connected.
The Developer Board contains 7 option switches that are described in the following paragraphs. Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) - S160, S161 The Developer Board can route up to 8 different analog voltage levels to the 3 G24 analog to digital converters, using the S160 and S161 switches.

GPIO8 Map to GPIO8 signal (G24 J1/42) The G24 GPIO lines can be configured both as output or input lines. The Developer Board contains 8 LEDs, marked as GPIO1 through GPIO8, that indicate the GPIO state, regardless of its configuration.
The GPIO switches have two positions: Logic High (left position, marked with "H") and Logic Low (Right position, marked with "L"). When setting a switch to "H" (default position), the GPIO line is not connected (uses the internal G24 pull-up resistor), when setting the GPIO to "L", the line is being shorted to ground.
