1 Introduction
This document describes how to use the evaluation board of UMTS<E modules and Wi-Fi modules. It
is an assistant tool for engineers to develop and test Quectel UMTS, LTE and Wi-Fi modules.
The following safety precautions must be observed during all phases of the operation, such as usage,
service or repair of any cellular terminal or mobile incorporating UMTS<E and Wi-Fi modules.
Manufacturers of the cellular terminal should send the following safety information to users and operating
personnel, and incorporate these guidelines into all manuals supplied with the product. If not so, Quectel
assumes no liability for the customer’s failure to comply with these precautions.
Full attention must be given to driving at all times in order to reduce the risk of an
accident. Using a mobile while driving (even with a handsfree kit) causes
distraction and can lead to an accident. You must comply with laws and regulations
restricting the use of wireless devices while driving.
Switch off the cellular terminal or mobile before boarding an aircraft. Make sure it is
switched off. The operation of wireless appliances in an aircraft is forbidden, so as
to prevent interference with communication systems. Consult the airline staff about
the use of wireless devices on boarding the aircraft, if your device offers an
Airplane Mode which must be enabled prior to boarding an aircraft.
Switch off your wireless device when in hospitals, clinics or other health care
facilities. These requests are designed to prevent possible interference with
sensitive medical equipment.
Cellular terminals or mobiles operating over radio frequency signal and cellular
network cannot be guaranteed to connect in all conditions, for example no mobile
fee or with an invalid USIM/SIM card. While you are in this condition and need
emergent help, please remember using emergency call. In order to make or
receive a call, the cellular terminal or mobile must be switched on and in a service
area with adequate cellular signal strength.
UMTS<E_EVB_User_Guide 7 / 44
UMTS/HSPA/LTE Module Series
UMTS<E EVB User Guide
Your cellular terminal or mobile contains a transmitter and receiver. When it is ON,
it receives and transmits radio frequency energy. RF interference can occur if it is
used close to TV set, radio, computer or other electric equipment.
In locations with potentially explosive atmospheres, obey all posted signs to turn
off wireless devices such as your phone or other cellular terminals. Areas with
potentially explosive atmospheres include fuelling areas, below decks on boats,
fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air contains
chemicals or particles such as grain, dust or metal powders, etc.

Quectel UMTS<E modules provide a USB interface which complies with USB 2.0 standard and
supports high-speed (480Mbps), full-speed (12Mbps) and low-speed (1.5Mbps) modes. The interface is
used for AT command communication, data transmission, firmware upgrade and GNSS NEMA output.
The UMTS<E EVB provides a Micro-USB interface J801 for connection with a host device. The USB
data lines USB_DP and USB_DM are connected directly to the module. The USB_VBUS line can be used
for USB connection detection and EVB power supply.

Quectel UMTS<E EVB provides one digital audio codec board interface (PCM) J501 and three analog
audio interfaces J601, J602 and J603. This chapter gives a detailed introduction on these audio
interfaces.
The UMTS<E EVB supports two different kinds of external digital audio codecs named ALC5616 and
TLV320AIC3104. The codec circuit is assembled on an independent small board which can be
interconnected with EVB by the BTB connector J501.
Customers can select different codecs according to their own application demands, and also can use AT
command to switch between codecs. Two examples are provided below. For more details, please refer to

One way is to execute AT command AT+QPOWD. This is the best and the safest way. The module will log
off from the network and save data before shutdown, but it will be powered on again after shutdown. For
more details about the AT command, please refer to document [5] or document [6].
The other way to power off the module is to press down S302/S301 button (S302 for
UC20/EC2x/EG9x/AG35/BG96 modules, and S301 for UGxx modules) for at least 0.6s.
AT+QWIFI=0 command can be used to power off Wi-Fi modules. For more details, please refer to
