2. OVERVIEW

Telit’s WE866C3 is a low power, high bandwidth 802.11ac and Bluetooth 4.2 module with a small footprint that provides an easy and cost-effective way to achieve best possible wireless connectivity. Advanced LTE, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth coexistence dramatically reduces complexity designing cellular back haul with the LE910Cx 4G LTE module family, making the WE866C3 ideal for a wide range of IoT applications including commercial building automation, OEM telematics, fleet management, and video surveillance.

WE866C3 powered by the Qualcomm QCA9377-3 is a perfect companion device for Telit LE910Cx cellular modules. WE866C3 supports low-power SDIO 3.0 interface for WLAN and a UART/PCM interface for Bluetooth. WE866C3 also supports BT-WLAN coexistence and uses the 2 wire ISM-LTE coexistence interface.

The following diagram shows a basic connection of LE910Cx with WE866C3 module over

the Wi-Fi interface.

3. HARDWARE

The section describes the hardware components of the LE910Cx +WE866C3-P LTE module.

Telit Evaulation Board

The Telit Evaluation Board is a generic developer’s platform, which is designed to provide the complete development environment to the user and intended to be used with a new set of Telit IoT modules. The EVB is designed to carry an Interface Board (IFBD) via three 120-pin B2B connectors. The Telit module is mounted directly on the IFBD. Power supply and control interface to the IFBD module are provided from the EVB via the B2B connectors. Several power supply configurations, including battery charging, are available. In addition, all interfaces needed for the developers, such as SIM card holders, JTAG, UART, USB, audio, micro SD, etc., are available on the EVB main board.

The following image shows an example of the generic Telit Evaluation Board.

Figure 1: Generic Telit EVB Board

Multi Technology Interface Board

The MultiTech Interface Board TLB (aka MTB) is custom designed to interface the Telit module variant LE910Cx with the Telit Generic Evaluation Board (EVB) thus forming the complete Development Kit of LE910Cx which allows great flexibility for integrating WIFI, BT and GPS technologies with the LE910Cx

The MTB provides the mapping of Telit module signals and functions into the generic EVB signals and functions.

The MultiTech Interface Board TLB design includes the following items:

LE910Cx-WE866C3-P LTE Bundling User Guide

• LE910Cx module.

• 3x M.2 type mini card slots.

• Programmable FPGA.

• RF SMA connectors.

• Board to Board connectors for interfacing to EVB main board

• Module specific circuitry which is not part of the generic circuitry of the EVB

Power supply and control interface for the cellular module is provided from the EVB via the B2B connectors.

To monitor the temperature, a thermistor is placed on the top GND plane, close to the module which should be representative for the module’s backside temperature.

A programmable FPGA which is included in the MTB provides options for connecting very functional modem pin to the relevant peripheral M.2 cards hence enabling the most flexible way to demo interoperability between the LE910Cx module and peripheral accessories.

A typical example of this capability is in the case where 3x M.2 cards (WIFI module, GNSS module and BT module) are plugged into the M.2 slots while the FPGA is programmed to perform the correct signals mapping between the LE910Cx and the interfaces of each of the M.2 accessories.

The following images show the MultiTech Interface Board top and bottom views:

WE866C3-P M.2 Card

The M.2 card is designed to interface the Telit LE910Cx module family on an IFBD with the Telit Generic Evaluation Board (EVB) thus forming a complete Development Kit of LE910Cx.

The following image shows the top view of the M.2 card mounted with a WE866C3-P module.

The WE866C3-P M.2 card follows the below M.2 specification:

• SDIO based Socket 1

• 2230 size type

• Key type E

This form-factor card specification is intended to support Wireless Connectivity devices including combinations of Wi-Fi, BT, NFC, and/or GNSS.

5. SET UP

Prerequisites

• PC with Windows XP or higher, running a serial terminal such as TATC to communicate over the COM interface.

• One USB cable.

Start Up

1. Plug the MultiTech Board on the generic EVB as shown below.

Figure 7: EVB with IFBD on Top

2. Connect the power supply cable to generic EVB [6-15 V]. Slide the power switch to ON to power the module. The Two Orange color LED’s on the EVB board lights up to indicate a proper connection.

6. WIRELESS OPERATIONS

This section describes the use case for wireless operations in WE866C3-P module.

Wi-Fi AP Mode

6.1.1. Accessing internet through cellular hotspot mode.

The WE866C3-P module operates in AP mode. The internet connectivity for the Wi-Fi module is provided via cellular modem.

The Host MCU uses the AT commands to access the internet through the cellular connection, whereas an external STA can connect to an AP.

Routing function for the Wi-Fi module is provided by the Linux OS and is orthogonal to the data AT commands.

Figure 12: Hardware Architecture

The following example demonstrates how to access the internet through cellular AT commands:

Step 1: Prepare module for AP mode using the AT commands from Host MCU (refer 4. AT Command):

AT+CGDCONT=1,”IP”,”Example_APN”

AT+CGDCONT=2,”IP”,”Example_APN”

AT#DUALAPN=1

AT#REBOOT

// “Example_APN” should be changed to the cellular provider’s // APN. After changing DUALAPN mode, user must reboot for // changes to take effect.

// The above changes are persistent and must be done only // for the first time.

Page 25: LE910Cx-WE866C3-P LTE Bundling User Guide · LE910Cx-WE866C3-P LTE Bundling User Guide 1VV0301578 Rev. 0 Page 3 of 37 2019-01-11 USAGE AND DISCLOSURE RESTRICTIONS I. License Agreements

1VV0301578 Rev. 0 Page 25 of 37 2019-01-11

Step 2: Configure to AP mode using the following command

AT#WLANMODE=0

Step 3: Bring up the WE866C3-P module.

AT#WLANSTART=1

Step 4: Bring up a data connection in the modem side

AT#SGACT=2,1

The Linux and the host MCU will share the cellular data connection, and every STA connected to the device will be routed through the Linux platform.
