3.14. Operating status indication
The STATUS pin is set as an output pin and can be used to judge whether module is power-on,
please refer to Section 3.4. In customer design, this pin can be connected to a GPIO of DTE or be
used to drive an LED in order to judge the module’s operation status. A reference circuit is shown
in Figure 42.

3.15. General purpose input & output (GPIO)
The module provides a limited number of General Purpose Input/Output signal pins. The driving
capability of these pins is 4mA. Every GPIO can be configured as input or output by AT
command. For details, please refer to document [1].
