Installation of EM Modules onto the EM2 Expansion
Board
The EM2 expansion board has a primary EM header (MOD1) and a secondary EM header
(MOD2) as indicated on the silk screen (see Figure G-5). The secondary EM header is rotated 180
degrees from the primary EM header.
There are many types of EM modules that can be installed onto the EM2 expansion board. See
the README First document for the EM module you are installing to determine if there is a specific
requirement or recommendation for which header the EM module should be installed in. If
installing a single module and if there is no specific requirement or recommendation in the
module’s README First document indicating which slot it should be installed in, install the single
module into the primary EM header (MOD1).
To install an EM module into the primary module EM slot of the EM2 expansion board, do the
following:
1. Attach any supplied antennas to the EM module.
2. Locate the two 20-pin sockets on the back side of the EM module. Note the tab on the side of
each of the 20-pin sockets. This tab denotes pin 1 and aligns with the 20-pin headers on the
EM2 expansion board that contain slots near pin 1 for the tab. See Figure G-5 for details.

3. Align the two 20-pin sockets on the EM module over the 20-pin headers on the EM2
expansion board that are within the primary EM silkscreen.
