Put the main alarm drive to the safe place so you prevent the manipulation. DO NOT PUT it to the metal
cupboard, the radio signal wouldn´t get through the metal.
The window/door sensor: insert the battery into the part „A“. The magnetic sensor sends the signal to the
central drive if the two parts move away from each other to more than 2 – 3 cm. Attach the part „A“ onto the
entrance door/window and the part „B“ of the sensor onto the doorframe. You can check out the correctness of
the installation by opening the door – the red warning light will go on.
PIR sensor – insert the battery into the PIR sensor. PIR sensor uses the infrared technology for movement
detection. It is necessary to ensure that no small animals (dogs, cats, birds, and so on) will move in the guarded
compound. Do not place the sensor where the sun shines on it or where the switching heaters (heating
appliances, hotplates, heaters, storage heaters) on it. Place it into the guarded room under the ceiling to
prevent unwanted manipulation. The PIR sensor coverage is 5 - 12 metres, the range width horizontally
110°/vertically 60°.
Before the sensor installation, check if the sensors coverage and range meet your requirements.
Continue with the alarm installation as it is described in the part 7. The alarm configuration (User guide).
Installation guide:
1. Inserting the SIM card into the alarm
Press the yellow point on the device with the nib or another tip. The SIM card holder will slide out. Insert
the SIM card into it and slide it back. Make sure that the SIM card´s metal contacts are downwards. Now
press the SIM card holder back into the device. Before inserting the SIM card into the alarm, use it first in
the normal mobile phone and make these steps:
- Delete the PIN code
- Delete all the saved numbers, if there are any on the SIM card
2. Connecting the antenna
Screw the antenna carefully onto the main drive. Do not leave it too loose and do not screw it too tight
either!
3. Connecting the power supply
Connect the power supply adaptor that must have the voltage in the range 9V - 12V DC and must provide
the current over 1000 mA into the alarm main drive. The signal LED diode on the alarm will go red for 20
seconds. It waits for the connection of the detectors to the main drive during this time. After 20 seconds
the LED signal will blink orange, which means that the main drive checks the SIM card and searches the
GSM net. After finishing this phase the signal LED diode will change to the slowly blinking green colour,
which means that the telephone numbers were saved into the alarm and the device is turned on to the
active alarm mode. If the signal LED diode stays shine with continuous green colour without blinking it
means that the telephone numbers weren´t saved and the device is turned on without the activated

alarm. You can get connected to the main drive by dialling or sending the SMS and program it by manual
inserting the telephone numbers.
4. Connecting the siren to the alarm
Connect the black wire to the grounding (GND) and the red wire to the siren.
5. Connecting the wire sensors
There are three connectors available for connecting the wire sensors. The inputs are independent and
they aren´t coded as different zones. When the sensors are activated, the alarm sends an SMS: Wired
Activated (1~3) (wire sensor activated (sensor number)).
The sensors must be the N0 typ (they are open in the normal state).
There can be used more sensors on one input if their contacts are connected to the alarm by series.
There can be connected any number of the wire sensors onto the alarm inputs if their total resistance
doesn´t exceed 220 ohms.
6. Connecting the switching devices (household appliances)
There are three outputs with the open collector （O1, O2 and O3) available and one internal relay is with
the phone control option. The internal relay is activated if the alarm triggers and it can be
deactivated/reactivated by the telephone commands or SMS messages. It is possible to use them for
example for switching on the external lights.
ATTENTION! The relay contacts are dimensioned to the current 6 A, so it is not possible to connect the
device directly over the input power 1000 W (it will cause the contacts damage). Connecting the device
with the higher input power (e. g. convector heater) is necessary to solve by using the external contactor
or the output relay.
BlackRed

45
The outputs with the open collector can be used directly if the device permits it, or they can control the
relay. Connect the antiparalel diode to the relay coil. These outputs can be controlled only by the
telephone commands or the SMS messages.
Notes to the cabling: for controlling the household appliances
The control box has four conductors:
- Two yellow conductors AC for connecting to the household appliances
- GND (grounding), +12V DC conductor for connecting to the power supply of the direct current 12V
DC (power adaptor)
7. The alarm configuration
On the back side of the alarm, there are 10 connecting places with these labels:
- I1, I2, I3: 3 connectors for the line input, each connector can be linked up to the ground or open
for the alarm activation.
- O1; O2: 2 output connectors can be controlled by the calls or SMS for the purpose of setting. If the
output on these connectors grows, the warning lights OUT 1 or OUT 2 will go on (dilatants should
use this function with caution!).
- SPEAKER (O3): this connector is for the voice output (loudspeaker), where its other end is
connected to the grounding. These connectors can be controlled by the phone commands or SMS
messages. If this function is available, the warning light OUT 3 will go on the panel.
- RELAY1, RELAY2: These two connectors will close up for 3 minutes after the alarm notification.
You can start power the camera at the alarm activation by using them. The function can be
deactivated using the order 16#1# or anytime by sending the SMS or dialling the number (94#1# or
94#0# ).
- SIREN: This output provides the signal tone of the siren and it is necessary to connect the siren to
it where the other cable of the siren is connected to the earthling.
- GND: grounding
Description of the signal LED warning lights
The LED warning light shines red 20 seconds after switching the device on, where the wireless sensors can
be connected to it at this time. If the sensor recoding is successful, the red warning light will blink. After
20 seconds the warning light will blink orange. It searches the GSM net in this time. If the orange light
doesn´t stop blinking, it means that the SIM card is wrongly inserted or that the GSM net is unavailable or
that its signal is low. If the warning light shines continuously green, it indicates that there is no saved
telephone number on the SIM card. If everything is all right, the LED warning light will blink green (Full
activation) or it will blink quickly green (Partial activation) or it will stay shining with the continuous
green colour (Deactivation). When the alarm triggers, the LED warning light will blink red and the alarm
will start sending the SMS and dialling the numbers.

46
- OUT1/OUT2: if the alarm output O1 is under the voltage (+5V), the warning light OUT 1 will go on; if the
alarm output O2 is under the voltage (+5V), the warning light OUT 2 will go on.
- SPEAKER: if the loudspeaker in the alarm main drive is working, the warning light Output3 will shine,
which means that you can hold a conversation with the base.
- RELAY: if the two relay outputs on the main drive are connected the relay warning light will go on.
- ALARM: if the siren is working, the siren warning light shines as well.
- MONITOR: if the wiretap function is active, the monitor warning light is also switched.
- STATUS: the alarm status.
- POWER: the alarm power supply.
How to set up the telephone numbers and SMS in the device?
EVOLVE Sonix is possible to control comfortably also using your smartphone:
- Android – EVOLVE Sonix (Google Play)
- iPhone – EVOLVE Sonix (App Store)
You can set 5 groups of the telephone numbers and 7 SMS types by sending the message into the alarm.
The format of the command is always: password#operation code#content#
Examples:
- 123456#51#13905950001# will save the telephone number for the first group into the alarm
- 123456#52#13905950002# will save the telephone number for the second group into the alarm
- 123456#53#13905950003# will save the telephone number for the third group into the alarm
- 123456#54#13905950004# will save the telephone number for the fourth group into the alarm
- 123456#55#13905950005# will save the telephone number for the fifth group into the alarm
There are seven preset SMS types available, but you can change them. The first five messages are for
setting the wireless detectors for the zones 1-5. The sixth message is for the wireless detectors of the
zones 6-16. The seventh message is for the wire ports I1, I2, I3.
- When the first wireless sensor connects, this SMS will be send: Wireless Activated (01)
- When the second wireless sensor connects, this SMS will be send: Wireless Activated (02)
- When the third wireless sensor connects, this SMS will be send: Wireless Activated (03)
- When the fourth wireless sensor connects, this SMS will be send: Wireless Activated (04)
- When the fifth wireless sensor connects, this SMS will be send: Wireless Activated (05)
- When the sixth up to sixteenth wireless sensor connects, this SMS will be send: Wireless Activated
(i); i=6-16
- When the seventh wire sensor connects, this SMS will be send: Wire Activated (i); i=1-3, for the
alarm ports 1-3
You can send the message for overwriting the existing seven types of the SMS to the alarm. Each message
can have 24 characters of the English alphabet at the maximum:
- 123456#81#The front door opened# will save the first SMS message that is sent after connecting
the first wireless detector
- 123456#81#The middle door opened# will save the second SMS message that is sent after
connecting the second wireless detector
- 123456#81#The back door opened# will save the third SMS message that is sent after connecting
the third wireless detector

47
- 123456#81#The front window opened# will save the fourth SMS message that is sent after
connecting the fourth wireless detector
- 123456#81#The back window opened# will save the fifth SMS message that is sent after connecting
the fifth wireless detector
- 123456#81#The middle window opened# will save the sixth SMS message that is sent after
connecting the sixth wireless detector
- 123456#81#The attic entrance opened# will save the seventh SMS message that is sent after
connecting the first wire detector on the ports 1 - 3
How to test the alarm main drive?
When you turn on the alarm main drive and it is unactivated, the green LED warning light will shine
continuously on it. You can change it to activated state using the remote control or by sendind the SMS
message (123456#1#1#) where the LED warning light will start blinking green.
a. In the activated mode with the blinking green LED warning light connect the input ports (I1, I2,
I3) or disconnect the connected wire or activate any wireless detector or press the distress
button on the remote control. The alarm should automaticly send the SMS message and dial one
of the saved numbers.
b. The SMS message is sent before dialling the telephone number. If the SMS function was
deactivated or limited, only the phone numbers will be dialled. You can finish this process using
the remote control.
c. When the alarm triggers and dialling the telephone numbers starts, you can answer the call
straight without the necessity entering the password and turn off the alarm from the distance or
reset the device. By pressing the 3#1# you switch on the siren and by pressing 3#0# you turn it
off; by pressing 4#1# you can eavesdrop what´s happening in the room and by pressing 4#0# you
end the eavesdropping; by pressing 93#1# you can talk to the intruder by the alarm, where you
can turn this function off by pressing 93#0#.
d. When the alarm triggers and dialling the telephone numbers starts, you can answer the call
straight without the necessity entering the password and end dialling other numbers from the
distance. It only takes to press the buttons 1#1# or 1#2# on the phone, and therethrough you
switch over the alarm back to the activated mode.
e. When the alarm triggers, you can also, in case that you are around, turn off the alarm by the
remote control.
f. The device has the inner battery and it will send the message ‘external power failure’ or
‘external power recovery’ in case of the power failure and after that the resumption of the
power supply (from the grid).
How to control the alarm main drive?
a. By sending the SMS to the SIM card number that is inside of the device. Send to the alarm the SMS in
this form: 123456# and put one of the control command behind the symbol #;
b. Dial the SIM card number that is inside of the device. Call the alarm number and enter the password
123456# and put one of the control commands behind the symbol #:

the base drive (activated, deactivated, alarm); if the sent SMS is the real description
d. By sending the command it is possible to check out the actual state of the device.
e. When the failure of the external power supply occurs the alarm sends for information the SMS
message “Power changer off”. After the resumption of the external power supply the alarm will send
for information the SMS message “Power changer on”.
How to use the remote control?
The remote control has four buttons:
- The full activation: this activates the alarm for the situation when nobody is at home. All the sensors
are active and the green warning light will slowly blink on the alarm main drive
- The deactivation: this deactivates all the sensors and also the main drive, on which the green warning
light will shine continuously
- The partial activation: this activates the alarm for the situation when somebody is at home and so the
inner sensors are deactivated and only the outside sensors stay active. The people inside can
comfortably move without activating the alarm, but whoever would try to break into the house from the
outside he/she will activate the alarm
- The alarm (SOS button): this activates the immediate emergency alarm, e. g. in case of hold-up, in
situation when the alarm is turned off in the deactivated mode. The red warning light will blink on the
alarm main drive and the system will trigger the alarm, send the SMS and dial the preset numbers
How to add more sensors?
You can add other sensors as e. g. wireless door sensors, PIR sensors, gas and smoke detectors and so on,
to the alarm main drive.
A) The added sensors cooperate with the modes both Full activation and Partial activation:
When you activate the GSM module the LED warning light on the device will go red for 20 seconds. That
indicates that the process of code clearing is going on. In this time you can switch on other sensors and
the red warning light blinking will confirm you that they were successfully paired to the main drive. The
coding mode will end automatically after 20 seconds and the alarm will switch over to the working mode
where the LED warning light on it will change at first to yellow and then to green.

50
B) Adding the sensors in the inner protective zone (the sensors in this zone work when the mode Full
activation is active; if the alarm is in the mode Partial activation the inner sensors don´t work):
When you activate the GSM module the LED warning light on the device will temporarily go red. Press the
button “reset” for one second. The LED warning light will change the colour to orange for 20 seconds now.
That indicates that the alarm is in the mode of learning the codes of the inner protective zone. In this
time you can switch on other sensors of the inner protective zone and the blink of the red warning light
will confirm you that they were successfully paired to the main drive. The coding mode will end
automatically after 20 seconds and the alarm will switch over to the working mode where the LED warning
light on it will change at first to orange (searching the GSM nets) and then to green.
Note: If the four wireless sensors for the zones 1 – 4 are connected to the main drive then the newly added
sensor will be stated in the alarm as the fifth zone.
How to cancel the lost sensors?
In case that the paired sensors are lost you can encode them from the alarm main drive so they would not
affect the alarm functioning. Press and hold the pressed button “reset” and on top of that press the
button of power supply (the alarm switch on). The beep will be heard and the LED warning light will start
blinking as the confirmation that the reset of the device was successful. All the registered sensors were
deleted from the alarm main drive. Now recode again using the procedure described above only those
sensors that are available. The system reset will not affect the content of the preset SMS messages.
