Introduction
The Boomer-III OEM Modem Module is a radio packet modem,
intended for use on Mobitex 900MHz data communication networks.
It is primarily designed to be integrated into customer equipment as an
OEM module, for use with an Enterprise Application Server running
wireless applications or as the RF communications enabler device for
telemetry products
Messages from the end user are sent from the host/terminal through the
serial interface, and are transmitted by the modem when it is in
network coverage. Messages to the end user are received and
acknowledged by the modem, then passed to the host/terminal.
Within an area of coverage, the modem performs auto-roaming (auto-
scanning, channel selection, and registration on a new channel). The
modem operates in either battery save or non-battery save modes, as
instructed by the network and overridden by the host/terminal.
The modem interfaces to the host/terminal by using the data interface
port. The protocol supported over this link is Mobitex Asynchronous
Serial Communications (MASC).
The Boomer-III modem has the ability to contain on-board third party
applications software for embedded solutions. A Software
Development Kit (SDK) is available and described later in this manual
to assist this process.
