Telit EVB IoT Device Development Kit ‘

This Quick Start Guide will walk you through the easy steps required to setup the evaluation board for your wireless application.
The EVB is a tool designed for engineers, programmers and developers allowing to connect and use all the Telit Modules Interfaces.
Before starting, please connect your chosen Telit module interface to the EVB.

Getting started is easy

Your Telit EVB kit contains the following:

• Main board · Socket for embedded module interface board
• Power supply adapter & power cable · Micro USB Cable
• Mini USB Cable · Cellular Antenna

The picture below shows a typical evaluation board (EVB) platform consisting of an EVB main board and a TLB (Translation Board). In the setup depicted below, a Telit LE920 module is mounted: EVB IoT Device Development Kit – Quick Start Guide

Run the EVB with your module

Install the proper PC drivers
Telit provides two different installers according to the host system architecture (x86 or x64).
In the link below you can find the available set of USB drivers https://www.telit.com/developer-zone/iot-device-prototyping-kit/ With the EVB disconnected from the PC, please run the installer package and, after the welcome screen, follow the instructions of the Windows® Wizard.

Plug the module on your EVB

Please contact your Telit representative for the list of available extension module that can be used with the EVB. Plug the module on the evaluation board, making sure that the EVB and adapter connectors are properly mated .

Connect the board with the PC

Plug the USB cable, one end of the USB port to Evaluation Board and the other end of the USB port to your PC or laptop.

Power Supply

Connect the power supply adapter and the external power cable to your board

Power On

The ON/OFF functionality and its use is depending on the used module. Please refer to the related Module’s Hardware User Guide and Interface User Guide. Typically, to turn on the module, the ON/OFF button must be pressed for at least 5 seconds and then released. The table below contains typical intervals for which the button must be pressed for some Telit modules.

On your PC, please go to Control Panel > Device Manager and check the COM port number. The screenshot below reports an example of the port composition listed on Windows 10 Device Manager.

USB Modem ports are ACM devices and can be used as AT Command interface. To identify the corresponding COM port number, just right click on one of the two Telit USB Modem entries, select Properties, then Modem tab. The picture shows the Telit USB Modem properties. In this example Windows 10 system binds USB

17 with COM9 port.
