DESCRIPTION
The engineer-friendly GS3050-A analogue inter-
face provides total confidence in all security and
surveillance applications. It can be simply and
cost-effectively intergrated with all alarm sy-
stems, and can substitute the PSTN line comple-
tely, in zones where the GSM Service is provi-
ded, and where hardwired telephone devices
cannot be installed (mountain cabins, beach bun-
galows, etc.).
The GS3050-A manages two-way voice and
Central station communications, and all the tele-
phone-control functions normally provided by te-
lephone diallers.
The performance of this device greatly depends on
the selected GSM Network, and signal strength.
The GS3050-A supports CONTACT ID, 10 bps,
20 bps protocols and, in areas with optimum si-
gnal strength, SIA and CESA protocols, all of
which transmit properly over the GSM Networks.
The GSM signal strength is of utmost importance,
the GS3050-A should not be located in places
where the GSM signal is weak (e.g. only one
signal strength LED ON), as communications will
be at risk.
The GS3050-A can manage up to 8 SMS Texts,
and provides a remote control feature that will al-
low Users to turn ON the 5 Outputs over the pho-
ne.
Due to the characteristics of GSM Networks, the
GS3050-A cannot be used as a modem for fax or
data transmission, or for Teleservice operations.
The GS3050-A is housed in a tamper-protected
metal casing, with built-in status display.
INSTALLING THE GS3050-A
The GS3050-A should be located in a safe dry
place, away from radio transmitters and similar
devices. When choosing the placement, remem-
ber that the GS3050-A requires a 13.8 V_1 A
min. power supply (usually from the Security sy-
stem).
The GS3050-A must be Earthed, and equipped
with standby battery (see Figure 4).

The GS3050-A provides 4 Alarm channels for SMS
and Telephone Dialler functions. These channels
refer respectively to terminals 15, 16, 17 and 18
(L1, L2, L3 and L4), and can be activated by Posi-
tive signals (transition from MM

Negative signals (transition from positive to MM
MM
M â).
Use the on-board Jumpers P2 [17] and P3 [18] to
set the standby polarity of Input pairs L1-L2 and
L3-L4 (refer to Table 2). This setting is strictly
linked to the Input standby polarity (refer to “PRO-
GRAMMING THE SIM VIA PC” or “PROGRAM-
MING THE SIM VIA CELLPHONE”). In position a
the Inputs will be activated by positive signals
(áá
áá
á or L) whereas, in position b the inputs will
be activated by Negative signals (ââ
ââ
â or H).
A 13.8 V_1A power supply must be connected
to terminals 19-20 (+ 12V –) of the GS3050-A.
GThe GS3050-A must be connected to a
standby battery.
See the Wiring diagram in Figure 4.
OPERATING PRINCIPLES
The GSM Interface facility takes priority over the
Dialler facility (Voice and SMS). Therefore, if a
line-sharing device (connected downstream to
the Interface) requires the line, any ongoing cal-
ls communications (Voice or SMS) will be inter-
rupted, and the calls from the line-sharing device
(e.g. Security system) will be sent. When the line-
sharing device hangs up, the Dialler facility (Voi-
ce or SMS) will restart the calls communications.
NOTE - SMS Communication facility takes
priority over Voice Call facility. Therefore
SMS texts will be sent before Voice calls.
GSM INTERFACE FACILITY
This operating mode will allow all calls and data
transmissions to be carried on the PSTN line du-
ring standby status. However, when the voltage
on the PSTN line (terminals LE) drops below 3 V
for a period ranging between 10 to 45 seconds
(the time depends on the device that is connected
to terminals LI), the GS3050-A will simulate the

PSTN Line and switch the connected telephone
device to the GSM Network for a full 15 minute
interval. At the end of this interval, it will check
the PSTN line:
—if restored, it will switch back to the PSTN;
—if not, it will remain connected to the GSM
Network for a further full 15 minute interval. This
operation will be repeated until the PSTN line is
fully restored. The GS3050-A will not switch du-
ring ongoing calls.
The simulated line will provide the line ring volta-
ge for incoming calls, and will decode DTMF dial-
ling (the GS3050-A is unable to decode Pulse dial-
ling).

The Red INCOMING CALL LED RR
RR
R will go ON

GS3050-A Interface) receives a call on the SIM-
CARD number.
The GS3050-A has a seven-segment LED display
that will indicate: Programming status; Line enga-
ged status; Active Line (PSTN or GSM); Number
called Interface mode (refer to Table 5).
The speed at which the numbers appear on the
display depends on the dialling speed of the con-
nected telephone device.
Table 4 contains the descriptions of all the LEDs
located on the frontplate.
SMS DIALLER FACILITY
The GS3050-A can operate as an SMS Com-
munications and/or Voice Dialler.
The SMS Dialler facility will send preset text
messages to the programmed telephone numbers.
This facility is activated by Alarm signals on the 4
Input Channels.
NOTE: Only 2 messages can be preset for each
channel (the Activation and Restoral messages).


SMS Communications
The preset SMS communication will be sent
when the associated Alarm event occurs on
the Alarm line.
Alarm lines (that have triggered SMS
communications) must be restored to
standby, otherwise, they will be unable
to signal new Alarms. This feature preven-
ts the system from sending an SMS communi-
cation more than once for the same Alarm.


Priority - If several Alarm events occur
contemporarily, the SMS communications will
be sent in accordance with the
chronological order of the Alarms.
Interface - The GSM Interface facility takes
priority over the SMS Dialler facility. Therefo-
re, if a line-sharing device (connected down-
stream to the Interface) requires the line, any
ongoing SMS communications will be interrup-
ted, and the calls from the line-sharing device
(e.g. Security system) will be sent. When the
line-sharing device hangs up, the SMS Dialler
facility will restart the communications.
GS3050-A DIALLER FACILITY
GNC2/VOX Voice Board required. If this
facility is used the calls will be sent via
GSM even when the PSTN line is present.
The Dialler facility will be activated by Alarm si-
gnals on any of the 4 Input channels. Once activa-
ted, the Dialler will call the programmed telephone
numbers, and send the associated messages.


Voice call activation
Voice calls will be sent when Alarm events
occur on channels that have been duly pro-
grammed with Voice messages, and at least
one telephone number.
In the event of an Alarm on one of the Input
channels, the GS3050-A will perform as fol-
lows (see Figure 5).
1. It will dial the first telephone number on the
Telephone numbers list.
2. It will check for the ‘Number busy’ tone, and
GSM Network ‘Trouble’ (bad signal) before
proceeding with the call. In the event of either,
it will abort the call and go to the next telepho-
ne number. In this way no time will be lost in
dialling engaged numbers.
3. If the line is free and the handshake is valid
(refer to the “Send message after ...” option),
it will send the associated voice message.
firealarmresources.com

11
ENGLISH
If the line is free but the handshake is inva-
lid, it will end the call and go to the next tele-
phone number on the list.
G The GS3050-A will wait up to 40 seconds
for a valid handshake.
4. It will repeat the message 4 times before en-
ding the ‘Successful’ call.
The call will be considered ‘Successful’ after
the second message announcement.
GIf other events occur during the dialling
phase, the relevant messages will be sent
during the ongoing call.
This will not occur if the ‘Call successful
number’ option is enabled.
GThe Input channel cannot generate fur-
ther call cycles until it has been restored to
standby.
Priority Channel - If several Alarms occur
contemporarily Alarms, channel 1 will take prio-
rity, and Channel 1 calls cycle will be sent
first. The other channels will be dealt with
chronologically.
Interface - The GSM Interface facility takes
priority over the Voice Dialler facility. Therefo-
re, if a line-sharing device (connected down-
stream to the Interface) requires the telepho-
ne line, any ongoing Voice Dialler facility calls
will be interrupted, and the calls from the line-
sharing device (e.g. Security system) will be
sent. When the line-sharing device hangs up,
the Voice Dialler facility will restart the inter-
rupted calls.
NOTE: SMS communications take prio-
rity over Voice calls. Therefore if the sy-
stem is programmed to send both the
SMS communcations will be sent first.
ACTIVATING RESERVED OUTPUTS VIA SMS
The GS3050-A can be set up to control one or
more of the 5 Outputs via SMS. The communica-
tion text must include the Access code, Output
String and the required action (On Off), as follows:
##
##
#Code##
##
#String=ON=ON
=ON=ON
=ON to activate the Output
##
##
#Code##
##
#String=OFF=OFF
=OFF=OFF
=OFF to stop the Output
The Access Code can have up to 4 alphanumeric
characters (including spaces), whereas, the String
can have up to 10. The String must be entered on
the telephone pad in the same way as it is written
in the ‘Control SMS’ column on the ‘Outputs’ page.
The following example shows an M communication that
will turn ON the HEATING system (Access code PR73).
#PR73#HEATING=ON#PR73#HEATING=ON
#PR73#HEATING=ON#PR73#HEATING=ON
#PR73#HEATING=ON
NOTE: Some GSM Networks provide feedback
messages to confirm that SMS communications
have been received. If this service is not availa-
ble, you can set up one of the Input channels to
provide the feedback message. For further detai-
ls refer to the ‘Output Page’ section.

This section describes the programming procedu-
re via the GS3050-A Software Application (runs
under Windows™), and provides a detailed de-
scription of all the programmable parameters.


Introduction
To access the Programming phase, proceed
as follows:
a) insert the SERV Jumper [16], or
b) trigger an Alarm on a Channel with the
‘Serv’ attribute (Service Channel).
If you access ‘Service’ mode, via the Service
Channel, the system will allow any ongoing te-
lephone call to finish, before stopping the call
cycle and activating the ‘Service’ mode. If the Ser-
vice Channel utilized is Channel 1, any ongoing
call will be interrupted, the call cycle stopped and
the ‘Service’ mode activated immediately.
During the Programming phase:
a) all the LEDs on the GS3050-A frontplate
will turn OFF;
b) ‘P’ will appear on the display;
c) the SMS communications and GSM Calls
will be stopped;
d) the OC Outputs will be forced to standby;
e) the GS3050-A will switch to the Land line.
A GSM-LINK cable (accessory item) is required.
The 3-pin connector must be connected to con-
nector [9], and the DB9 to the computer COM port
(refer to the ‘Menu Bar’ section for the Setup).

PROGRAMMING THE SIM VIA CELLPHONE
IMPORTANT: The successful outcome of the manual
pro rammin phase depends on the type of cellpho-
ne used. Ensure that the cellphone saves the SMS
mesa es in the intended order (i.e. the first SMS
messa e in slot 1, the second in slot 2 and so forth).
If you chan e an existin SMS, ensure that it is retur-
ns to the same slot in the memory.
This section describes how to program the SIM
CARD. For the parameter descriptions, refer to
‘PROGRAMMING THE SIM VIA PC’.
Work carefully through the following steps:
NOTE - The term ‘Empty Message’ in this
section means a message slot with no text.
If your Cellphone does not save empty
messages enter at least one character (e.g.
a full stop or a hyphen) in the message slot.
1. Insert the SIM-CARD then turn your Cell-
phone ON.
2. Program the telephone numbers. Up to 8
telephone numbers can be saved on the SIM-
CARD for the Dialler facility. These numbers
can be saved in the same way as you usually
firealarmresources.com

20 GS3050-A - GSM Dialler and Interface
save numbers in your Mobile Phonebook.
However, instead of entering a Name, enter
‘TELNUM’followed by the Telephone number
position (1 ... 8).
TELNUMx
x represents the position number (1 ... 8).
3. Create and save an ‘Empty’ message (messa-
ge no. 1). The GSM Module will write the Fir-
mware release automatically in this message
slot. This text must not be Edited or Deleted.
4. Create and save a message (message no. 2)
for the Dialler facility programming fields.
If the Dialler facility is not used, save message
no. 2 as an ‘Empty’ message, then go to step 5.
The Dialler facility manages 4 channels, each
channel is associated with a Dialler Trigger
Input (at Factory). You can assign 1 Alarm
message, and up to 8 Telephone numbers to
each channel, as follows:
AVx=myyyyyyyy;
x represents the Channel (1 ... 4)
m represents the Voice message (1 ... 8)
y represents the Telephone number, pro-
gram this value as ‘1’ or ‘0’.
If you enter ‘1’, the Voice message will be
sent to the corresponding Telephone number.
If you enter ‘0’, the Voice Message will not be
sent to the corresponding Telephone number.
Set up the SERV function as follows:
AVx=SERV;
x represents the Channel (1 .... 4).
WARNING: If you set up a ‘SERV’ Channel, all
the values in the SMS Dialler programming field
must be zeroed: ØØØØØØØØØØ (see step 7.).
You must complete ALL the programming
fields. If you are not using all the Chan-
nels you must void the unused Channels
(Redundant Channels) by entering an
empty value (e.g. Voice message no.1 to
NO Telephone numbers =1ØØØØØØØØØ).
In the following example, Channel 1will send
Voice message no. 5to Telephone number 8.
Channel 2 is set up as the ‘SERV’ Channel,
and Channels 3 and 4are ‘Redundant’.
AV1=500000001;AV2=SERV;
AV3=100000000;AV4=10000000;
A semicolon (;) must close the programming field.
5. Create and save a message (message no. 3)
for the OC Outputs.
If you wish to use the Factory default pro-
gramming (refer to Table 3), save message
no. 3 as an ‘Empty’ message.
The GS3050-A has 5 OC Outputs. You can
associate one or more of the events shown in
Table 3 to each Output, as follows:
OSx=yy,zz,ww;
x represents the OC Output (1 ... 5).
yy,zz,ww represent the Event acronyms (re-
fer to the following Table).
FP P TN Down
FG G M No ervice
BC Communication Trouble with G M Module
CO Outgoing Call
CI Incoming Call
G G
G G
G All 7 events must be assigned to the
Outputs. Each Output can manage more
than one Event. Each Event can be
assigned once only.
In the example Output no. 3 (O3) will be activated by
PSTN Down (FP), No GSM Service (FG).
OS3=FP,FG;
A comma (,) must separate each event, and a
semicolon (;) must close the programming field.
6. Create and save a message (message no. 4)
