1 Introduction
This document describes a ready-to-use development and test environment for the Cinterion
®
PLS62-W SMT modules.
The development and test environment comprises the following hardware components
• PLS62-W evaluation module (for supported products see Section 1.1)
The PLS62-W evaluation module consists of the actual PLS62-W SMT module soldered
onto a PCB with a board-to-board connector and an U.FL antenna connector. For PLS62-
W evaluation module board schematics see Chapter 4.
• DSB75 Development Support Board
The PLS62-W evaluation module needs to connect to an adequate host device such as the
DSB75. A detailed DSB75 hardware interface description and operating instructions can be
found in [3].
• DSB75 Adapter.
The DSB75 Adapter is used to mount the PLS62-W evaluation module to the DSB75.
The purpose of this document

is to guide you through the process of connecting the hardware,
installing the supplied drivers on a Microsoft
®
Windows 7 (or Windows 8) system and getting
started with PLS62-W.
Note: The hardware components listed above as part of a development and test environment
are also mentioned in [2] as part of the comprehensive reference equipment used by Gemalto
M2M for type approval. For general development and test purposes however, there is alterna-
tive equipment available: The DSB75 may be replaced by the DSB-Mini (for details see [5]),
the DSB75 Adapter by the Starter Kit B80, either plugged onto the DSB-Mini or as a stand-
alone device (for more information see [6]).
