PRODUCT CONCEPT AND USAGE
As we move quickly towards the third generation mobile world, more attention
than ever is being paid to the wireless data market. We have only seen the first
steps that have been taken towards the future of the mobile information society,
but it is already clear that wireless data will be about a lot more than just web
browsing. Machine-to-machine (M2M) communication solutions are an
important part of wireless data services, making valuable information and
services available to corporations and mobile users alike. The market potential
is huge, and new applications are emerging continuously when operators,
service providers and developers are searching opportunities for growth. The
telecom industry in general is shifting towards end-to-end solutions, which
requires reliable communication and information transfer.
M2M communications give corporations the opportunity to make savings in
operational costs, enhance their customer service, and so on. Examples of
M2M applications are the remote control of utility meters or vending machines,
traffic information, industrial applications, security and surveillance, sales and
payments, fleet management, telemedicine, public services and much more.
The Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal is an M2M (machine-to-machine)
communications device with versatile interfaces and advanced functions.
Connected to different machines and devices, it provides wireless connectivity
and remote management possibilities for customer applications through its
three operation modes. It offers GPRS, USSD, high-speed data, as well as
other advanced services, over EGSM900/GSM1800 (Nokia 30 terminal) and
GSM850/1900 (Nokia 31 terminal) networks. It is a perfect fit for various
application environments for its size, versatility and reliability.
Note: The Nokia 31 terminal supports data call bit rates from 2,400 to 14,400 bps.

OPERATING MODES
Each M2M application has different needs for wireless connectivity. M2M
applications range from controlling door locks to tracking cargo. For this reason
the Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal supports three operation modes to
choose from. Selection is based on the nature of the application and the needs
of the application.
The User control mode is especially designed with mobile-to-machine and
machine-to-mobile communications in mind. One can easily control simple
applications built using the services of the Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal
with a mobile handset.
The AT command mode offers efficient point-to-point communications through
the modem capabilities of the Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal.
The M2M System mode in turn takes in full use all the advanced services
offered by the Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal. In the M2M System mode, the
Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal functions as a part of the intelligent Nokia
M2M Platform that offers seamless wireless communications for different
machine-to-machine solutions.
4.1
USER CONTROL MODE
An example of a device attached to the Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal for
wireless control would be a refrigerator. One might want to check the
temperature of the refrigerator when out of town. One could also want to check
if the door of the refrigerator was left open. It would even be possible to lock the
refrigerator door from afar. This could be done with a text message sent from a
mobile handset.
Functionality as described above could be achieved with a Nokia GSM
Connectivity terminal physically attached to the refrigerator. The Nokia GSM
Connectivity terminal incorporates a built-in service, the User Control Mode, for
device control and monitoring wirelessly, with a mobile handset. A text
message is sent from the mobile handset to the terminal, which in turn controls
the device attached to it. For example the temperature of a refrigerator can be
checked with text message sent from a mobile handset.
A refrigerator is just one example of a device or machine that can be controlled
wirelessly using the User Control Mode. Also other devices ranging from
electrical locks to lamps can be put on or off. Thus, a device that simply needs
to be put on or off can be controlled using User Control Mode. As for monitoring
devices or machines, the same applies. It can be checked wirelessly, if
something is on or off. E.g. it can be checked if a door is open or closed. Also a
device value can be checked, e.g. what is the temperature reading of a
thermometer. If the device or machine in turn has a need e.g. to make a voice

call, other modes of operation offered by the Nokia GSM Connectivity terminal
should be used for that.
It is possible to connect five devices to one Nokia GSM Connectivity terminal
for wireless remote control, and three devices for wireless remote monitoring.
For more information about the connection interface for User Control Mode,
please see Chapter 7.1.1.
In Table 1 the services offered by the User Control Mode are listed. For a
detailed technical description of the functionalities, please see Guide for User
Control Mode for Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal.

4.2
AT COMMAND MODE
Besides the User Control Mode, the Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal can also
be used as a wireless modem in AT Command mode. The AT command mode
offers efficient point-to-point communications through the modem capabilities of
the Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal. As a wireless modem, the terminal can
be used for data and fax communication when attached to a compatible PC or a
compatible device. In addition to this, the terminal can be controlled directly with
AT commands by different machines and devices, for example.
Wireless modem usage is enabled with an RS-232 data adapter connected to
the Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal; see Figure 7. The RS-232 adapter has a
connector for the standard RS-232 data cable. The RS-232 data cable is then
connected to a compatible PC or another compatible device. In addition to this,
AT commands are also available via the M2M System Connector.
All applicable ITU-T V.25ter, ETSI GSM 07.07 and ETSI 07.05 AT commands
are supported. The supported AT commands are described in the AT
Command Guide document, which is available on the Nokia 30 and Nokia 31

CD-ROM included in the complete sales package (see chapter 8.1) and in the
RS-232 data package (see chapter 9.3).
In modem use, no Nokia-specific user interface software or driver is required.
The Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal can be used with standard modem
drivers and communications applications. However, also a special modem
driver for the terminal is provided in the Nokia 30 and Nokia 31CD-ROM
included in the complete sales package (see chapter 8.1) and in the RS-232
data package (see chapter 9.3).
The Nokia 30 and Nokia 31 complete sales package includes all of the
accessories required for the terminal to be used as a wireless data modem.
Alternatively, GSM modem functionality can be achieved with the Nokia 30 and
Nokia 31 basic sales package combined with the data package and a power
supply unit. (See chapters 8 and 8.2)
4.3
M2M SYSTEM MODE
In the M2M System mode the Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal functions as a
part of the Nokia M2M Platform. The Nokia M2M Platform is a complete,
wireless end-to-end solution for machine communication; see Figure 1. It
comprises the GSM Connectivity Terminals and the Nokia M2M Gateway.

The M2M system mode of Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminaloffers many
unique benefits such as wireless bearer selection (GPRS, USSD, HSCSD
(Note: Supported by Nokia 30 terminal), CSD, SMS), ready-made protocol
stacks, separation of data transfer from the application and the possibility of
introducing new technologies without changing the application. It offers an open
interface for application developers and effective and reliable methods for
controlling the terminal and the application.
In addition to other benefits, the Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal offers
additional reliability and access control in the M2M System mode. Abnormalities
in communication can be easily detected with the help of system monitoring;
see Chapter 5.2. The Nokia M2M Platform has built-in reliability in its method
calls. Mutual authentication between the Nokia M2M Gateway and the GSM
Connectivity Terminals enables efficient access control.

Technologically, the Nokia M2M Platform is an object-oriented SW platform
based on CORBA, an open and widely accepted industry standard. The Nokia
M2M Platform is adaptable to a wide range of purposes and communication
methods and can be used in several applications. The Nokia M2M Platform
hides network complexities and is transparent to different machines, OS and
language implementation, thanks to CORBA method calls. (See Chapter 10).
In the M2M System mode, the services offered by the Nokia GSM Connectivity
Terminal are used via its M2M system connector (Figure 3) or RS-232 interface
available with RS-232 Data Adapter (see Figure 7). In the former case the
application module is connected directly, or using flat cable, to the Nokia GSM
Connectivity Terminal via the M2M system connector. In the latter case a
standard RS-232 cable can be used.

FEATURES
5.1
WIRELESS DATA BEARERS
The Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal supports five bearers for wireless data
transfer, which can be used where GSM networks support them.
-
General Packet Radio Service (GPRS)
-
High speed circuit switched data (HSCSD) (Note: Supported only by
Nokia 30 GSM Terminal)
-
Circuit switched data (CSD)
-
Short messages (SMS)
-
Unstructured Supplementary Service Data (USSD)
General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) utilises packet switched technology
where information is transmitted in small bursts of data. The GPRS mobile
station class is class B. This means that both GPRS connections and circuit
switched connections are possible, although it has to be defined which one is
used each time. The Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal supports GPRS multislot class 6, thus multiple timeslots can be used for data transfer at the same
time: 3 + 1, 2 + 2, 2 + 1 or 1+1 slots.
With High Speed Circuit Switched Data (HSCSD), the Nokia 30 is a multi-slot
class 6 terminal and offers data transfer speeds of up to 43.2kbit/s when 3+1
timeslots are in use.
Circuit switched data offers data speeds of up to 14.4kbit/s.
The Short Message Service allows the user to send and receive messages of
up to 160 characters via the Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal. The service can
deliver messages to the terminal whenever it is connected to the network, even
when the terminal is engaged on an active call. SMS is a convenient way of
passing data quickly and easily to and from Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminals.
The Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal supports also binary format SMS.
Note: The Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal supports Unicode SMS messages
for graphical character sending in AT command mode. In this case binary format
messages should be used and the encoding and decoding of messages should
be provided externally. Please see Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal Technical
Specification for more detailed information.

10/37
Unstructured Supplementary Services Data (USSD) offers reliable interactive
messaging services. USSD allows the user to send and receive messages of
up to 182 characters via the Nokia Connectivity Terminal. When USSD is used,
a session is established for the duration of the connection. This increases data
transfer reliability, as the delay is known. In addition, it shortens response
times.
With the Nokia Connectivity Terminal, it is possible to choose which bearer is
used in the application. With a wireless bearer choice, communication costs
can be optimized. When new technologies and bearers are introduced, the
onward compatibility of the Nokia Connectivity Terminal offers the possibility of
choosing from more bearers.
5.2
RELIABILITY AND ACCESS CONTROL
The Nokia Connectivity Terminal supports normal GSM encryption, GSM
security codes, AutoPIN, system monitoring and authentication to ensure the
reliability and security of the M2M application.
The Nokia Connectivity Terminal, as part of the Nokia M2M Platform, offers
reliability through a supervised data pipeline. Supervision is provided by
effective and reliable methods for controlling the terminals and the application
via CORBA method calls. Connection between the Gateway and the Nokia
Connectivity Terminal is mutually authenticated to prevent any intervention.
Additional methods for security and encryption can be completed by the
application.
With the Nokia Connectivity Terminal’s reliability features and supervision
provided by the Nokia M2M Platform, full control of a customer’s M2M
application is possible. Messages are passed to the correct destination, in the
correct form, in a way that can also be tracked.
GSM encryption
The Nokia Connectivity Terminal supports normal GSM encryption for end-user
privacy.
GSM security codes
The Nokia Connectivity Terminal supports the following GSM security codes:
-
PIN / PIN 2
-
PUK / PUK 2
-
SECURITYCODE
-
CALLBARRINGCODE
Copyright © Nokia 2002 – 2004. All rights reserved.
11/37
Security codes can be changed via the Nokia Connectivity Terminal
Configurator (see Chapter 9.6) as well as from the network and from the
application module.
AutoPIN
SIM security enables device recovery following (occasional) power cuts without
on-site intervention and helps prevent fraud. SIM security is achieved using the
AutoPIN feature. The PIN code is programmed in the terminal’s memory where
it is relayed in unusual situations. When AutoPIN is in use, the SIM card is
useless to any outsider.
System monitoring
Connection between the Nokia Connectivity Terminal and the application
module is checked periodically by live checks. Based on the live checks, the
Nokia Connectivity Terminal and the application module can be reset
automatically if the connection between them breaks. This feature only exists in
the M2M system mode (see Chapter 4.3) when traffic is sent through the M2M
system connector.
Authentication
The terminal and Gateway authenticate each other when circuit switched data
or high speed circuit switched data is used. This kind of authentication can be
used in the M2M System mode.
5.3
SUPPLEMENTARY SERVICES

APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT
In a typical M2M system the Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal is integrated to
a remote asset (device) that is monitored and controlled from a server
application. In simple systems, a person can control the remote asset via
normal GSM phone instead of using a server application.
Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal can be integrated to the remote asset via
input and output pins provided in the M2M system connector. The pins can be
set and read by a server application via in-build software interfaces of the Nokia
GSM Connectivity Terminal. Also, a person can access the signal states with
text messages.
There may be a need to process information more complex than just simple
input and output pin data. The device may produce data that must be first
processed with a certain algorithm. According the results, there may be a need
to distribute information to the server application.
Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal provides certain software interfaces and AT
commands for communicating with the server software. The intelligence
(remote application) resides in the remote asset that may include a logical
element such as a micro controller. The micro controller is connected to the
Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal via a serial interface. The intelligence can be
also close to the remote asset in a separate “bridge” element such as Nokia
Smart Adapter.
With AT commands, the Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal works as any GSM
modem. Please refer to Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal AT Command Guide
for further information about the available AT commands.
In-build software interfaces can by utilized for effective communication with the
server software and for accessing the services provided by the Nokia GSM
Connectivity Terminal. To utilize these CORBA software interfaces, some
software libraries, provided by Nokia, need to be integrated to the remote
application.

CORBA AND NOKIA GSM CONNECTIVITY TERMINAL
The CORBA (Common Object Request Broker Architecture) is a widely
distributed computing infrastructure, standardized by the Object Management
Group (OMG) consortium. In short, CORBA applications are composed of
objects which can be located within different machines. Objects have services
and they are utilized with request messages. The CORBA hides the underlying
transferring network, such as the Internet or GSM network as well as the
underlying protocols, so that a user can use functions as local procedure calls.
Object services are described with an abstract language named IDL (Interface
Definition Language). The IDL also provides the necessary information required
to develop clients that use an object's interface operations. The interface
definition specifies which member functions, data types, attributes and
exceptions are available to a client, without making any assumptions about an
object’s implementation. An IDL compiler is responsible for mapping IDL
interfaces onto the particular programming language, such as C, C++ or Java.
Thus, the programming language that is used in CORBA implementation does
not have to be object-oriented.
Example applications implemented using CORBA IDL can be found at the
Forum Nokia web pages: http://www.forum.nokia.com/m2m or
http://www.americas.forum.nokia.com.
11.1
THE NOKIA GSM CONNECTIVITY TERMINAL INTERFACES
The services offered by the Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal are defined in
the following three interface definitions:
•
Wireless Device Interface Definition
•
Embedded Terminal Interface Definition
•
IO Interface Definition
The Wireless Device Interface Definition is common for all kinds of devices. The
Nokia terminal -specific services are described in the Embedded Terminal
Interface Definition and services related to remote input/output control in the IO
Interface Definition.
The services defined in the Wireless Device Interface Definition are divided in
three interfaces: Device, ParamObserver, and EventObserver. The Device
interface has functions to handle dynamic parameters and counters. The
EventObserver interface’s services are used for providing information regarding
events like incoming calls or network connection loss. ParamObserver
interface’s functions are used in the same way, but in their case, to receive
notification of changes in dynamic parameters.
Copyright © Nokia 2002 – 2004. All rights reserved.
27/37
The Embedded Terminal Interface Definition describes GSM related operations,
such as call control, Short Message Service (SMS), supplementary services
and light indicator control functions. They provide easy access to basically all
mobile network services.
The IO Interface Definition has functions for the remote control of the M2M
System Connector’s input/output pins. The IOControlObserver interface is used
for indicating changes in those pins.
Events are available for devices connected physically to the terminal as well as
for some of the method calls. Data structures and exceptions are not restricted
and can be utilized by all devices connected to the terminal (irrespective of
whether the connections is physical and wireless).
All dynamic parameters and events of the Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal
are described in Properties Interface Definition. Configurations such as
connection settings for GPRS or SMS and led state can be set as parameter
values. Parameters, counters and events can be handled through the functions
of the Wireless Device Interface Definition.
For method descriptions of Wireless Device, Embedded Terminal and IO
Interface Definitions, please see IDL reference guide for Nokia GSM
Connectivity Terminals. For parameter, event and counter descriptions of
Properties Interface Definition, please see Properties Reference Guide for
Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminals. For the actual Interface Definitions, please
see wirelessDevice.idl, egsmt.idl, io.idl and properties.idl of Nokia GSM
Connectivity Terminals.
