    1. Introduction

    This manual describes the contents and functions of the TCG-1450 and TCG-

    1451 equipment cases for GSM. It contains instructions for vehicle installation

    and for connecting the cases to a PC.

    Instructions on how to operate the devices contained in the cases are not

    found in this manual. They are instead found in the manuals accompanying

    the individual products.

    2. Overview of the TCG-1450 and

    TCG-1451

    2.1. Overview of Function

    The TCG-1450 and TCG-1451 equipment cases make drive testing with

    TEMS Investigation practical. The cases keep external devices securely in

    place, while greatly simplifying the task of connecting them to the PC.

    The TCG-1450 and the TCG-1451 are identically equipped, except for the

    mobile phone holders. The TCG-1450 accommodates up to four Sony

    Ericsson T610, T616, or T618 TEMS mobile phones. The TCG-1451

    accommodates up to two Sony Ericsson mobiles of the same types and up to

    two Nokia 6230 test mobiles.

    Both cases are equipped with a GPS unit, a 7-port USB hub, and an 8-port

    USB-to-RS-232 converter for connecting all external devices to the PC

    running TEMS Investigation GSM. In the TCG-1450, all connectors on the8-port USB-to-RS-232 converter will be occupied since the Sony Ericsson

    mobiles use RS-232. The GPS is therefore connected to the USB hub

    through another (single-port) USB-to-RS-232 converter that is integrated with

    the power supply unit. No such arrangement is necessary in the TCG-1451,

    where the GPS can be plugged into a free port on the 8-port converter.

    The cases are powered with 12 V DC from the vehicle cigarette lighter outlet.

    Inside the case, the power is distributed to the two cigarette lighter outlets on

    the main panel (next to the XLR-type power inlet) and to the power supply

    unit. This unit in turn supplies power to the USB hub and the mobiles. One ofthe two cigarette lighter outlets on the connector panel is used to power

    supply the GPS unit, and the other one can be used to power supply the PC

    running TEMS Investigation (via a vehicle adapter).

    In what follows, the TCG-1450 and TCG-1451 are usually referred to jointly

    as the Case (with a capital C) if no difference exists between the two models

    regarding the point under discussion. Wherever differences do exist, each of

    the cases is named individually.

    3. Installation, Details on

    Components, Handling

    3.1. Vehicle Installation of the Case

    The Case is primarily intended for installation in a vehicle for drive testing. It

    can however also be used in other environments as long as 12 V DC power

    can be supplied.

    3.1.1. Seat Mounting Kit

    3.1.2. Adaptation for Right-hand Driven Vehicles

    The mounting of the interior of the Case is adapted for left-hand driven

    vehicles. The TCG-1450 can easily be adapted to right-hand driven vehicles:

    Open the four screws located at the bottom of the case (accessed from

    the outside).

    For best possible

    support during

    driving, use the

    seat mounting kit

    to fasten the Case

    to the passengerseat. The Case is

    then kept safely in

    place by means of

    a belt wrapped

    round the seat

    and attached to

    the Case with

    snap-hooks.

    Lift the interior of the case, rotate it 180 degrees, and replace it into the

    case. Tighten the screws in the bottom.

    3.2. Power Supply

    Power is supplied to the Case through a cable that should be connected to

    the vehicle power system. The cable comes with a universal plug so that itcan be plugged into a vehicle outlet. The universal plug fits cigarette lighter

    outlets as well as 12 mm power outlets.

    The accepted input voltage range is 10.516 V DC.

    The center pin connector should be connected to the positive (+) pole and the

    outer shield to the negative () pole of the power source.

    For safety reasons the universal plug is equipped with a car-type 8 A fuse

    and an LED for fuse check. Spare fuses are delivered along with the Case in

    a plastic bag containing consumables.

    The power cable connects to an XLR-type socket inside the Case. The

    polarities are as indicated in the figure below.

    Note: This operation can only be performed on the TCG-1450. In theTCG-1451, the case lid will not close if the Nokia mobile phone

    holders are placed along the side where the case locking devices

    are.

    Note: It is very important not to supply the Case with a voltage

    exceeding 16 V. The Case cannot be powered directly by a

    vehicle with a 24 V power system.

    The total power consumption of the Case when nothing is connected to the

    two cigarette lighter outlets corresponds to a current not exceeding 2 A.

    Making use of either or both of the cigarette lighter outlets will naturally

    increase the power consumption.

    3.3. Power Supply UnitA power supply unit is installed in the Case. It incorporates five voltage

    regulators and a single-port USB-to-RS-232 converter.

    Along the right edge of the power supply unit are four connectors:

    Fan is the power outlet to an optional cooling fan. No fan is necessary in

    the TCG-1450 or TCG-1451.

    12V DC In is the power inlet to the power supply unit, and it is connected

    to the XLR-type power input. 12V DC Out1 and 12V DC Out2 are power outlets for accessories.

    Neither of them is used in the TCG-1450 or TCG-1451.

    The outlet marked USB-Hub is a 5 V supply outlet for the 7-port USB hub.

    The four outlets marked Mobile/UE are used for charging the mobile phones.

    Connection cables for charging either(TCG-1450:) four Sony Ericsson

    mobiles or(TCG-1451:) two Sony Ericsson and two Nokia mobiles are

    delivered with the case.

    WARNING: If you choose to construct your own power cable to be

    able to connect directly to a screw terminal or other kind of

    power outlet, be sure to connect an 8 A fuse in series with

    the positive (+) lead. Otherwise the two cigarette lighter

    outlets next to the XLR-type connector will be unfused,which may cause a fire hazard.

    A single-port USB-to-RS-232 converter is integrated with the power supply

    unit. This converter is used only in the TCG-1450, where the GPS antenna is

    plugged into the RS-232 port. The USB type B connector on the converter is

    connected to the 7-port USB hub.

    At the top of the power supply unit are found a 5 A fuse and an LED which

    lights up when power is applied to the Case. Note that the fuse only protects

    equipment powered by the power supply unit; it does notprotect the two

    cigarette lighter outlets next to the XLR-type power inlet. These are only

    protected by the 8 A fuse in the power cable universal plug.

    3.4. Mobile Phone Holders

    All cases are equipped with four mobile-specific holders:

    The TCG-1450 has four holders for Sony Ericsson T610, T616, or T618

    mobiles.

    The TCG-1451 has two holders for Sony Ericsson T610, T616, or T618

    mobiles, and two holders for Nokia 6230 mobiles.

    To install a mobile, just insert it in a holder of the correct type, pushing it down

    until it locks in place.

    3.5. USB Hub

    A 7-port USB hub allows the UE USB ports and the 8-port USB-to-RS-232

    converter integrated with the power supply unit to be simultaneously

    connected to one USB port on the PC.

    The USB hub is power supplied from the power supply unit.

    3.6. 8-port USB-to-RS-232 Serial Converter

    The task of the 8-port USB-to-RS-232 serial converter is to convert data and

    transfer it between the USB hub on the one hand and the Sony Ericsson

    mobiles and the GPS on the other. (These devices are equipped with an RS-

    232 port only.)

    In order for the PC to detect the COM ports of the converters, some driver

    files (delivered with TEMS Investigation) must be installed on the PC. See

    appendix A.

    Once a serial converter is correctly installed, the PC operating system will

    detect additional COM ports. These ports will be assigned the next available

  • 8/9/2019 TCG-1450 & TCG-1451 Equipment Cases -- User's Manual

    14/26

    TCG-1450/TCG-1451 GSM Equipment Case Users Manual

    10

    COM numbers; what numbers will be used depends on what ports have

    already been defined, so it cannot be predicted generally. It is possible to

    inspect and change COM numbers from the Windows Device Manager.

    The COM ports will always be detected by the PC as long as the Case isconnected to the PC, whether or not any equipment is installed in it. In other

    words, disconnecting the device connected to a converter port does not affect

    detection of the port.

    3.7. Mobile Phones

    3.7.1. Sony Ericsson TEMS Mobiles

    A Sony Ericsson mobile has a serial port to which is connected a split cable

    with two serial connectors. Of these, the one labeled TEMS is used for

    communication with TEMS Investigation. The connector labeled DATA is

    used for data services. Each is plugged into a port on the 8-port USB-to-RS-232 converter.

    Each Sony Ericsson mobile is power supplied by a charging cable which

    plugs into the serial cable (when that is connected) and whose other end is

    plugged into an outlet in the power supply unit.

    3.7.2. Nokia Mobiles

    A Nokia mobile is equipped with a USB port and is connected by a USB cable

    to a port on the 7-port USB hub. Both TEMS measurements and data servicemeasurements are transferred via USB; no split cable is used.

    The charging cable of the Nokia mobile has one end connected to the phone

    holder. The other end of the cable plugs into an outlet in the power supply

    unit.

    Note: The Case must be connected to the PC before TEMS

    Investigation is started. Otherwise TEMS Investigation will not

    detect the external devices.

    documentation.

    3.8. GPS

    The GPS unit delivered with the Case is a Garmin GPS 35 TracPak

    (GPS35PC version), a complete GPS receiver unit with embedded antenna.

    It tracks up to twelve satellites at a time, giving one-second navigation

    updates. The GPS is mounted in a water-resistant housing in order to

    withstand rugged operating conditions. Delivered with a mounted magnetic

    plate, it is suited for outside mounting for example on a vehicle roof or hood.

    Technical data on the GPS unit is provided in section 5.3. For further

    information about the product, visit the Garmin web site at www.garmin.com.

    If you need to change the earth datum setting in the GPS, please contact

    TEMS technical support.

    To install a Garmin 35 PC in the Case, two connections are required:

    The GPS is powered by 12 V DC through a power cable connected to one

    of the cigarette lighter outlets in the Case. Insert the cigarette lighter plug

    into a free cigarette lighter outlet.

    Data transfer to the PC takes place through a serial cable. Connect the

    9-pin serial connector of that cable to

    (TCG-1450:) the RS-232 port on the power supply unit

    (TCG-1451:) port no. 5 on the 8-port USB-to-RS-232 converter.

    3.8.1. Interacting with TEMS Investigation

    To establish contact with the GPS in TEMS Investigation, you must identify

    the GPS unit in the application. How to do this is explained in the TEMS

    Investigation user manual (which see).

    3.9. External Antennas

    Four magnetic mount external antennas (magnetic bases with a monopole

    radiator) are delivered with the Case. The purpose of using external

    Appendix A. Installation of Drivers for the 8-port USB-to-RS-232 Converter

    LZT 108 7075 R1B 17

    Appendix A. Installation of Drivers

    for the 8-port USB-to-RS-232Converter

    When the Case is connected to the PC for the first time, the operating system

    will ask for drivers for the 8-port USB-to-RS-232 converter. The drivers are

    found in the TEMS Investigation GSM installation directory under

    Drivers\USB_RS232.

    This appendix tells how to perform the driver installation. It assumes that you

    have previously installed TEMS Investigation GSM.

    A.1. Installing Drivers under Windows XP

    The driver installation is a two-stage process. First the USB section of the

    driver is loaded, and then the COM port section.

    Plug the Case into the PC. This brings up a help bubble, followed by the

    Found New Hardware wizard where the device name US232 USB-Serial

    Cable will be displayed.

    Select the option Installation from a list of specific location (Advanced).

    Click Next.

    Check Include this location in the search. Click the Browse button and

    point to the directory c:\Program Files\Ascom\TEMS Products\TEMS

    Investigation GSM\Drivers\USB_RS232. Click OK. Then click Next. The drivers will now be installed. Ignore any messages about drivers not

    being tested for compatibility with Windows XP; click Continue anyway.

    No further user intervention should be required. When the screen with the

    Finish button appears, click Finish.

    The installation procedure is now repeated, this time to install the COM port

    section of the driver. Walk through the wizard once more in exactly the same

    way as described above. The only difference is that the device name will be

    USB Serial Port.

    When the installation is complete, the Help bubble will inform you that the

    new hardware is installed and ready to use.

    A.2. Installing Drivers under Windows 2000

    The driver installation is a two-stage process. First the USB section of the

    driver is loaded, and then the COM port section.

    Plug the Case into the PC. This brings up a series of messages followed

    by the Found New Hardware wizard. Click Next.

    If the USB device has been detected correctly, the name of the device

    (US232 USB-Serial Cable) will appear in the wizard. On the same

    screen, there is a question What do you want the wizard to do?. Select

    Search for a suitable driver for my device. Then click Next.

    Under Optional search locations, check Specify a location and make

    certain that the other options are not checked. Click Next.

    Click Browse and point to c:\Program Files\Ascom\TEMS Products\

    TEMS Investigation GSM\Drivers\USB_RS232. Click OK.

    A screen will now appear saying that the software does not contain a

    digital signature. Click Yes.

    Windows 2000 should now find the ftdibus.inffile located in theDrivers\USB_RS232 directory. This file tells Windows how to install the

    USB section of the drivers. Click Next.

    Windows 2000 will now automatically copy the USB driver files from the

    CD to its system directory and install them. Click Finish.

    The installation procedure is now repeated, this time to install the COM port

    section of the driver. Walk through the wizard once more in exactly the same

    way as described above. The only differences are that the device name will

    be USB Serial Port and the INF file found will be ftdiport.inf.

    A.3. Multiple Cases

    It is possible to use multiple equipment cases with one PC.

    The driver for the serial converter needs to be installed only once. If you

    connect a different Case later, the installation will be repeated automatically

    for that Case.
