Go to the Touchsafe Pro Master Panel (ID 1), Logon as an Engineer or Manager and select the GSM Modem
option…
Accept Call From: If the telephone number of the engineer is entered into this test box and an engineer
makes a mobile call to the panel, the number will be compared to the incoming call and if there is a match,
the panel will initiate an IP connection to the Remote IP Address.
Remote IP Address: This is the number of the Router connected to the internet in the initiators building.
By default this is set to 82.69.230.11. If required, this can be changed to an IP address chosen by the
Engineer. If the IP address has been changed and Aidcall are required to connect, then the user should
select the “Connect To Aidcall”checkbox. This will override the IP address shown in the box above it.
In the event that a different entry is required, it is possible to add a file to the “Site”directory on the SD
card called “AidcallIP.txt”. This file can be set to the required IP address e.g. 10.23.10.45.
If this is done, checking the “Connect To Aidcall”checkbox will result in an IP connection being made to the
address contained within the file.
SIM Number: This is the number supplied with the SIM card that is inside the GSM Modem and must be
entered manually from the documentation supplied with the SIM. This is the number that the Engineer will
call to initiate a connection.
APN Details: The unit should be supplied with a CSL Dual Comm SIM. If this is not the case, the APN details
of the SIM should be entered in the ”APN Details”box. The information above the APN Details box
indicates the signal strength of the GSM Modem coverage with respect to the GSM network.
Sessions: This will normally be set to 1 when a connection is in progress. Failure to close a connection in a
controlled manner may result in this value being incremented each time a connection is made and not
closed down in a controlled manner. If this number reaches 32 the unit will not connect until the modem
has been powered down and back up or the Reset button has been pressed.
If the Modem is detected by the panel, the CONNECT button will be enabled and the Signal Strength will
show a valid value. As an alternative to an Engineer dialling into the panel, the CONNECT button can be
pressed and that will start a connection.
