GsmAlarm+A
GsmAlarm+X
The embedded antenna is located under the front panel. This omnidirectional
antenna can work properly if the front side of the device is not shielded by metallic
frames (i.e.: the GsmControl+A is installed inside a metal cabinet).
An external dual-band antenna must be connected to the RF interface, implemented
as a 50 FME male coaxial jack at the end of a short RG174 cable stub exiting from
the top side of the device. The antenna must fulfil the requirements given below:
We recommend a VSWR max of 1.5:1 although a VSWR max of 2:1 can be accepted
without affecting performance and certification.
The DC impedance is floating but there is no problem when using antennas that
present a short to ground.

This device should be installed only by qualified personnel. Carefully read the
instruction manual in its entirety and keep it safe for future reference.
It is essential to know the information and comply with the instructions given in the
manual to ensure the fitting is installed, used and serviced correctly and safely.
This RF unit is not designed for and intended to be used in portable applications
(within 20 cm or 8 inches of the body of the user) and such uses are strictly prohibited.
This unit is not authorised for use as critical component in life-support devices or
systems unless a specific written agreement has been given.
If incorrectly installed in a vehicle, the operation of GSM device could interfere with
the correct functioning of vehicle electronics. Verification of the protection of vehicle
electronics should form a part of the installation.
Regulations must be considered to operate a vehicle’s light or horn on public roads.
No complex software or hardware system is perfect.
Bugs are always present in a system of any size.
In order to prevent danger to life or property, it is the responsibility of the system
designer to incorporate redundant protective mechanism appropriate to the risk
involved.
All units are 100% functionally tested. Specifications are based on characterisation
of tested sample units rather than testing over temperature and voltage each unit.
Contrive disclaims all liability for damage to the fitting or to other property or persons
deriving from installation, use and maintenance that have not been carried out in
conformity with this instruction manual, which must always accompany the fitting.
The GsmAlarm+ is an industrial DIN rail GSM modem for the supervision and control
of remote inputs and outputs by means of enhanced features available through GSM
network.
Industrial standard interface and an integrated SIM card reader mean it can be used
rapidly, easily and universally to quickly implement new applications in telemetry,
telematics and remote control. All interfaces are integrated in the housing.
The connections are suitable for use in domestic and industrial environments.

none, pulse, toggle, reverse,dtmf
Clip feature is disabled, nothing happens on incoming calls from registered users.
Selecting this mode, incoming voice (or fax) call from registered user will turn on
the output for the time set in .
Incoming voice (or fax) calls will toggle the output on to off or vice-versa.
A ringback will be issued only when an output is turned on.
If the user waits online, after the time specified in GsmAlarm+ will answer,
playing a low tone after output release or four high tones after output activation.
No ringback will be issued in such case.

WARNING
The simplest way is to put your SIM card into a cellular phone and
program it so it won't ask for the PIN. The SIM card is 'open' and
someone could steal the SIM card, use it and read the information inside.
GsmControl+ comes with a default PIN = (four zeroes).
Put your SIM card into a cellular phone and program the PIN using the
given number.
Using com port and running on Microsoft® Windows®
PC you can modify the default PIN on both GsmControl+ and SIM card.
If you insert a SIM card that asks for a PIN number different from
that stored into GsmControl+, the device will not operate.
If you enter the PIN 3 times incorrectly, SIM card will lock up and you
must provide the PUK (PIN Unblocking Key).
Add Users (group 0)
Store first supervisor
Remote control is allowed to registered users only.
It's possible to add, modify or delete subscribers
from the SIM card phonebook using any GSM
mobile phone or SIM card reader/writer.
Following operating instructions provided by
phone manufacturer insert the SIM card into the
SIM card holder, turn on the phone and scroll the
option menu to enter the SIM card Phonebook edit
mode.
Enter the users name and telephone number using international format.
Insert the SIM card into the device SIM card holder and turn on the power supply,
the unit is ready to operate.
Although it is not mandatory to store a supervisor, you may add a supervisor who
then has additional special commands only available to him (advanced manual).
To store the first supervisor, once the unit is operative, issue the following SMS:
start character
system PIN (default = 0000)
supervisor’s name to be stored
optional email address
end character
Example:
The telephone number of SMS sender is automatically collected from the
incoming call presentation (thus the telephone number must be kept visible) and
will be assumed as the first supervisor’s telephone number.
First supervisor will be stored at position 401 and the unit will send back a
confirmation or error SMS.
Dots are allowed ONLY within the email address field.
It’s possible to use both and @ characters before the domain name.
SMS delivery failure is usually less than 1% but you must keep in mind
that a message could not arrive and you cannot complain with your
