Radio Passthru
Radio Passthru allows a direct connection, using USB, to the internal radio.
Normal cellular radio operation is suspended while Radio Passthru is enabled.
Radio Passthru is generally used only in certain troubleshooting scenarios.
The hardware bypass will remain in effect until the ALEOS software resets either
via ACEmanager command or the hardware Reset button.
Note: Special drivers are required to connect to the radio. Additionally, while it is possible
to send AT commands to the radio using a terminal connection, there are software applica-
tions designed to communicate with the radio directly. If you need to use Radio Passthru,
contact your Sierra Wireless AirLink representative to obtain the needed drivers and/or
software application.
