On the Outside
Power Mode Switch
Low power Standby or continuous Active Power Modes are selected by a single switch position.
Ring In LED
This LED flashes when an unanswered incoming call is detected.
Power Mode LED
This green LED flashes momentarily to indicate the modem is operating in low power Standby Mode. If the LED is off, the modem is operating in Active Power Mode.
Data LEDs
Separate LEDs indicate the presence of send and receive data.
Off Hook LED
This LED illuminates when a call has been answered or an outgoing call is being made.
Carrier Detect LED
The far-end carrier detect signal is present when the LED is illuminated.
DCE Connector
A DB‑25 female connector is used to connect to the DTE. The connector is configured as a DCE device.
Power In Connector
The modem is typically powered by a 5 to 36Vdc battery/solar power source. It can also be powered by a 12Vac wall mount power adapter.
Dual Phone Jacks
A land line terminates in either of two standard RJ‑11 jacks. The other jack can be used to connect a handset to the land line.
Small Mounting Footprint
The modem can be mounted on any shelf or backboard. Mounting footprint is 4.8" by 6.6".
LPM Documentation
On the Inside
Ultra-Low Power in Standby Mode
Low power Standby Mode requires .5mA of current at 12Vdc. This makes the modem ideally suited to battery powered applications involving small solar panels.
Expanded Operating Temperature Range
The modem will operate in low power Standby and Active Power Modes over a temperature range from -40C to +72C.
Line Speeds Up to 33.6K Baud
Auto-sensing allows the modem to operate at optimum line speeds. Line conditions are determined for each call.
Multiple DTE Speeds with Auto-Baud Detect
As controlled by the user-defined profile, the DTE port can be set to auto-baud detect or assigned a fixed speed.
Error Correction and Data Compression
All commonly used error detection and data compression schemes can be selectively deployed by establishing a preferred profile.
Automatically Reverts to Standby Mode
Several timers are employed to further minimize net power consumption. With the absence of DTE data or loss of carrier, a time-out forces the modem into low power Standy Mode.
Auto-Answer and Originate Modes
The modem will auto-answer incoming calls after a predetermined number of rings. It can also be used to originate outgoing calls.
Includes ModemConfig Application Software
MICRO‑AIDE's ModemConfig Application can be downloaded and used without charge. It is used to define, install and review the modem's operating profile. Standard profiles exist for all Peek ADR devices.
