11. Trouble shooting in GSM mode
Pro bl em Sol uti on
The GSM is not sending SMS after
programmed
- Check the SIM card you used with unit.
Try to send SMS with the same SIM from
your mobile phone.
- Try to replace the antenna
- Check the local GSM signal level
The GSM is used to work fine, after a
while not responding and not sending
SMS
- The SIM provider (like Orange, Vodafone)
has poor radio coverage in the region.
- Try other provider (with better GSM
coverage) SIM card.
- Change the antenna location
- Other option is to use high gain GSM
antenna.
- Check that the SIM card has funds to
support SMS sending
- The GSM modem received thunder hit and
requires software and hardware reset, or
been damaged. Requires factory repair
I replaced the SIM in the GSM and
notice unstable unit
New SIM in most cases must be activated
by the SIM card provider and load with
some money (for sending SMS and dial) in
order to work properly.
Call the SIM provider or check the SIM in
your working mobile phone if can call and
send SMS
