1.0 General characteristics
This manual contains instructions for installing and using Elkron communicators models CT10-
M and CT11-M. Most characteristics are in common to both models. The instructions refer to
both models unless otherwise specified.
CT10-M: works on GSM cellular telephone networks via a GSM module only
CT11-M: works on GSM cellular telephone networks and
traditional PSTN telephone networks
You can receive alarms, make checks, send commands and have
immediate voice feedback anywhere you are on any type of tel-
ephone (traditional or cellular). If you are using a cellular telephone,
you can also receive clear information in text messages.
For maximum flexibility, the association between events and desti-
nation telephone numbers can be freely programmed. The telephone
network to be used for each number (GSM and/or PSTN - CT11-M
model only) can be selected.
A network availability check function is provided. The system will
automatically switch to the other network (CT11-M only) in the case
of tampering or anomalies. Furthermore, useful information, such
as approaching SIM card expiration, technical failures (e.g. black-
outs) and telephone failures (e.g. network failures), can be sent.

3.4 SIM CARD SETTINGS
• Activate the prepaid or subscription SIM card using a cellular telephone.
SIM CARD SETTINGS
1. Ensure that the SIM card has a suitable margin of credit for ensuring operation of the
GSM module.
2. Make note of the last time the card was recharged to set the SIM expiration date (see
“SIM card expiration” menu in this manual).
3. Eliminate the need to key a PIN code in (using a cellular telephone).
4. Set the correct date and time (see menu).
SIM card insertion
3.5 FIELD COVERAGE TEST
The GSM field coverage can be tested before fastening the device to the wall.
1. Insert the SIM card.
2. Close the inputs if the telephone numbers have already been programmed.
3. Connect the battery using the wires provided.
4. Wait for the CT10-M initialisation procedure to end (the letter “I” will appear on the left
of the display).
IMPORTANT:
The field coverage in the installation point may be insufficient if initialisation is not
completed in a reasonable time (30 seconds after switching on). The message “Searching
network…” will appear.
5. Press buttons C + 4 to access the “View system state” menu.
The FIELD and GSM NETWORK values are refreshed every 7 seconds.
The point offering the best reception (indicated by the field notches) can be identified in
this way.
There are different types of SIM cards, identified by their power supply
source: 5V (obsolete), 3V and 1.8V (the most widely used and available).
The ELKRON dialer CT10/CT11-M manages the 3 volt and 1.8V SIMs.
Should you have any doubts, please contact your mobile phone carrier
to ascertain which SIM they use.
In the cases that the SIM is not inserted, or the PIN code request isn’t disabled
and in the case that the SIM is of the wrong type, the message “SIM KO” will be
displayed and the dialer will be automatically reset.

5.2 DESCRIPTION OF THE INPUTS
IN1 and IN2 ALARM INPUTS
• There are 2 single-shot alarm inputs.
• They can be programmed as N.O. - N.C. - TERMINATED or NOT USED (see “Instal-
lation menu”).
• The inputs can be programmed individually as 24h/24h (always active and instanta-
neous) or subjected to ON status of the communicator (TC command, see IN3).
• An input subjected to ON status (AND TC) can be programmed as INSTANTANEOUS or
TIMED (5sec./15sec./30sec./60sec./90sec).
IN3 INPUT (TC)
• IN3 input is configured as a TC (Trigger Control) command. It can be programmed as
N.O., N.C. or TERMINATED. IN1 and IN2 switching will not be recognised and the alarm
communication procedure will not be activated if level +12Vdc (TC ON) is present on
IN3. If on the other hand the level is 0Vdc (TC OFF), the switching of inputs IN1 and IN2
will generate a cycle of telephone calls. This operation can be useful if the communicator
is connected to an Elkron alarm control unit with a TC programmed output that by
default provides a high level (+12V) when the system is off and a low level (0V) when it
is active. Connect input IN3 to output TC of the Elkron control unit to automatically
enable/disable alarm transmission according to the active/inactive status of the control
unit.
• A later transition from ON to OFF of the TC command, i.e. following a new activation of
the system, will cause the “alarm memory” to be cleared.
• NOTE: Conventionally, condition 0V = TC OFF and +12V = TC ON is provided when
the TC input is programmed as N.O. (normally closed).
5.3 DESCRIPTION OF THE OUTPUTS
U1 and U2 FAILURE OUTPUTS
• These electrical outputs are dedicated to signalling FAILURES. They normally output a
+12Vdc signal, which is down when the output is signalling. Two types of failures are
controlled, namely “TECHNICAL FAILURES” and “TELEPHONE FAILURES”.
•Output U1 is dedicated to “technical” failures. It switching indiscriminately for:
-No power supply or external power supply under the minimum stated value for
longer than 2 hours (terminals 6 and 7).
-Low battery, i.e. power under a threshold of 10.8Vdc for longer than 120 seconds.
- No power supply/power back and low battery events are managed in the following
way:
1. No Power supply: the “POWER SUPPLY/BATTERY” LED on the front panel goes out
after approximately 10 seconds. After a 2 hour time-out, U1 switches to blackout
and makes the technical failure calls to the enabled telephone numbers (voice and/or
text message).
2. Power supply back: the “POWER SUPPLY/BATTERY” LED lights up after approximately
10 seconds and U1 is reset. No calls are made.
3. If the battery power drops under the 10.8V threshold, the “POWER SUPPLY/BATTERY”
LED will blink, the U1 output will switch to low battery and the technical failure calls will
be made. U1 will be reset when power supply comes back but the “POWER SUPPLY/
BATTERY” LED will continue blinking to indicate that the low battery event has been
detected. This LED is switched of manually by clearing the System Status menu
memory. Note that low battery status can only be detected during a no power
supply.
Specific calls with dedicated voice message can be associated to telephone
failuSpecific calls with dedicated voice/text message can be associated to technical
failures.

(((ELKRON))) - CT10-M / CT11-M
10
•Output U2 is dedicated to “telephone failures” and indiscriminately switches in the following
cases:
-No PSTN telephone line (CT11-M only)
This condition is determined by the negative outcome of the PSTN line test (see
paragraph 8.10). The output is reset if the telephone line is detected during the
following test.
-No GSM network
This condition is determined by prolonged absence of GSM field coverage. The output
is automatically reset when the field coverage is detected.
-No connection to GSM module
This occurs when there is no communication between board and GSM module for
longer than 2 minutes. The output is automatically reset when the interface is
established again.
No SIM card or SIM card not read
-The output is automatically reset when the presence of a SIM card is detected.
Telephone FAILURES are also signalled by the LED on the front panel which blinks fast.
The LED will blink slowly after the condition which caused the failure is restored to
indicate that the event has been stored in the memory.
The memory signal can be cancelled manually by means of “Clear Data” in the Wieving
System Status menu (see pag.20)
The probability of positive call cycle outcome is proportional to the number of
programmed telephone numbers. For this reason, YOU ARE ADVISED TO PRO-
GRAM MORE THAN ONE TELEPHONE NUMBER.
ELKRON declines liability of provisional or permanent non availability of
the GSM cellular network which can effect the possibility of making calls
and sending programmed text messages.
U3, U4, U5 OUTPUTS
• U3 and U4 outputs are electrical while output U5 consists of a free exchange C-N.C.-
N.O. relay. U3 and U4 present 0V when de-energised (+12V active). The relay dedi-
cated to U5 is de-energised. The outputs can be programmed as: Not Used, Associated
to inputs I1 and I2 or Controllable (remotely or locally by menu).
1. An output programmed as Not Used will be always de-energised.
2. An output programmed as Linked to an input (I1 or I2) will be activated according
to the associated input conditions. It can be programed as maintained or timed (5
sec/10 sec/30 sec/60 sec/90 sec).
• Associating an output to an input makes the output activate (switch) and return to de-
energised condition in different ways according to the type of associated input.
- If the associated input is 24h, the output will activated (switched to +12V) when the
associated input status changes from de-energised condition.
- Two cases are possible if the associated input is programmed as AND TC:
. With TC OFF, input status change will activate the associated output. Furthermore,
if the input is programmed as delayed, the associated output will be activated at
the end of the delay.
. With TC ON, input status change will be ignored. Consequently, the output will not
be activated.

(((ELKRON))) - CT10-M / CT11-M
11
-Resetting of an output can occur in different ways according to the programming:
· If the output is steady and associated to a 24h input, it will stay up until the user
code (or engineer code, where enabled) is entered by means of the keypad.
· If the output is steady and associated to an input in AND with TC, transition of
the TC to ON will instantaneously reset the output. Alternatively, this can be ob-
tained by entering the user code (or engineer code, where enabled) on the key-
pad.
· If the output is timed, it will reset to stand-by at the time-out also according to
the methods described for steady outputs (keypad codes and TC inputs) if waiting
for time-out is not required.
. The output will not switch if the associated input is programmed as Not Used.
3. If an output is programmed as Switchable, maintained or timed, refer to Chapter
6.7 “ANSWERING SERVICE AND REMOTE CONTROL OPERATION” for details. NOTE:
Only the status of “Switchable outputs” can be varied by means of the “Switch
Output ” menu.
5.4 TELEPHONE ANOMALIES
· The communicator can check the outcome whenever a cycle of calls is made. A telephone
anomaly occurs when over 80% of the calls in each cycle, on GSM and/or PSTN networks,
are not answered (or were not completed due to GSM transmission problems).
· The LED will light up with fixed light on the front panel of the communicator when a
telephone anomaly is detected. Normal operation will be reset when at least 20% of the
calls in a following cycle are completed.
· The LED will then blink slowly after the condition is restored to indicate that the event
has been stored in the TELEPHONE ANOMALY memory. The memory signal can be
cancelled manually by means of the “Clear data” in the Wieving System Status menu.
NOTE: the anomaly can be reset ahead of time by manually making and correctly
completing a test call.
5.5 CYCLE HISTORY
FAILURE and ANOMALY events are stored in an archive with the total number of cycles to verify the
reliability of the communicator in time. See “Viewing system status” for viewing the cycle history.
5.6 SAFETY RULES
• In accordance with EN41003 standards, a SELV* 12V- power source (derived from
apparatus compliant with EN60950 or EN60065 standards) must be used to safeguard
the device and the communications network.
• U3, U4, U5 outputs where interfaced with hazardous voltage circuits (lights, boilers,
etc.) must be disconnectable by means of relays or similar devices. These must be
wired externally to the device, possible allocated in a specific electrical panel or enclo-
sure.

5.7 EXAMPLE OF CONNECTION
• Example of not-balanced inputs referred to positive and U5 switchable output (relay)
controlling a 230Vac load.
The relay must be wired out of
the communicator for safety
standard requirements

6.1 ALARM PROCEDURE
1. Alarm status is tripped when input I1 or I2 switches from de-engerised according to
the programmed mode (N.C., Balanced, N.O., 24h, AND TC, instantaneous or de-
layed). The “ALARM MEMORY” LED will blink.
2. At the same time, the communicator will send alarm signals (voice and/or text mes-
sages) to the programmed telephone numbers associated with the alarm input. In
the case of CT11-M, alarm signals will be sent on the programmed telephone network
(see “Telephone number/network association” menu).
3. The call cycle can be stopped locally by entering the user or installation code (where
enabled) on the keypad. If the input which generated the event is associated to the
TC, the call cycle can be stopped by a barring command received on input I3 (TC
ON). Note that the communicator can complete the call in progress during barring.
4. The procedure is repeated for all telephone number to which inputs are associated
(see “Input programming”).
5. The communicator will call each associated telephone number three times. If answer
check is programmed (PSTN), a telephone number which does not answer will not be
called back (CT11-M only).
6. After ending the telephone cycle, the alarm memory LED will continue to blink and the
inputs generating the event can be viewed in the “SYSTEM STATUS” menu.
7. Stored information will be automatically reset at the next transaction of the TC input
from ON to OFF, i.e. following a new system activation or manually by means of the
“SYSTEM STATUS” menu.
6.2 GSM VOICE CALL CYCLE
• Following an alarm, a voice call is made to each telephone number (the GSM network
must be enabled for CT11-M). A basic message (10 sec.) is followed by the specific
message related to the event: input, output or failure. Other specific messages will be
added if other events to which the telephone number which is receiving the call is
associated occurs at the same time.
• The voice message will be repeated three times to each telephone number. After this,
the call will be ended and the other programmed numbers will be called. A tone allowing
the user who is listening to the message to enter the “Lock code” (12 in DTMF, see
paragraph 6.6 “STOPPING THE CALL CYCLE”) will be sent at the end of each voice
message. If the call cycle is not locked, the cycle will continue with the next number. The
programmed telephone numbers are called in sequence from the first to the last, for a
total of three cycles.
Three calls are made to each number to provide a wider margin of confidence that a call
will be received correctly. The following anomalies may occur during the voice call cycle,
both to fixed and mobile network numbers:
1. No answer or busy tone from PSTN network telephone:
The communicator will repeat the message sequence three times and the telephone
will be called three times.
6.0 Operating principles

(((ELKRON))) - CT10-M / CT11-M
14
2. GSM network temporarily down with consequent impossibility to make calls:
The commutator starts the procedure by calling the first telephone number. The call is
immediately interrupted and marked as “failed” since there is no GSM network recep-
tion. The communicator will make another attempt to call the same number if this is
the only programmed number. Otherwise, the communicator will go to the next
number and so forth. Three attempts will be made to call each telephone number
supposing that GSM network reception is restored. At this point, the call cycle will be
marked as “done”. If GSM coverage is not restored in time, the telephone failure
output will be switched (see paragraph 5.3 “Description of outputs”). The “Telephone
failure memory” LED on the panel will blink for time-out or stay on fixed if the cycle
was not completed. CT11-M will repeat failed calls on the PSTN line, if enabled (auto-
matic back-up function, see paragraph 6.4).
3. GSM call to unavailable number (cellular telephone off, busy, no answer or
answering service on):
The communicator cannot detect these conditions for which the call will be consid-
ered “done” and the cycle will continue normally.
6.3 PSTN VOICE CALL CYCLE (CT11-M only)
• A voice call is made to each telephone number associated to a programmed PSTN
channel following an alarm. A basic message (10 sec.) is followed by the specific mes-
sage related to the event: input, output or failure. Other specific messages will be added
if other events to which the telephone number which is receiving the call is associated
occurs at the same time.
• The voice message will be repeated three times to each telephone number. After this,
the call will be ended and the other programmed numbers will be called. A tone allowing
the user who is listening to the message to enter the “Barring code” (12 in DTMF, see
paragraph 6.4 “STOPPING THE CALL CYCLE”) will be sent at the end of each voice
message. If the call cycle is not locked, the cycle will continue with the next number. The
programmed telephone numbers are called in sequence from the first to the last, for a
total of three cycles.
• In the case of tones and active answer check, call outcome will depend on line tone
detection (see “Installation menu”, paragraph 8.10).
The tone and reply test while a call is being made on the PSTN line may be
affected by the possible periodical connection of the GSM module.
6.4 VOICE CALL BACKUP (CT11-M only)
• A back-up function has been implemented to additionally reduce the risk that an event is
not reported because of problems concerning one of the two telephone networks (GSM
or PSTN). The main reasons for automatically activating back-up can be:
- temporary lack of GSM network coverage
- no answer from PSTN call user following a call from a GSM call user
- no PSTN network (if tone check is enabled).
In these cases, the programmed voice call sent to a certain telephone network will be
automatically sent to the alternative network.

(((ELKRON))) - CT10-M / CT11-M
15
6.5 SENDING GSM TEXT MESSAGES
• Text messages are always sent three times to an associated telephone.
NOTE:
The communicator will send the default message “<COMMUNICATOR......>” if no
specific messages are programmed by means of the “SMS editor” program (see para-
graph 8.9) and text message transmission is enabled.
No backup call will be made if the text message cannot be sent (no field coverage).
6.6 STOPPING THE CALL CYCLE
• The call cycle can be stopped by dialling 12 in DTMF (called “Barring code”) on the
telephone receiving the voice call.
• Voice messages can be barred as shown below.
• The call in progress and the remaining call cycle (voice and text messages) will be
completed if the “Barring code” is entered.
• If the input that caused the alarm is subjected to TC, the call cycle in progress is barred
when the TC switched to ON.
• The call cycle can also be barred locally by means of the keypad by entering a valid code
(user code or ENGINEER code, where enabled).

6.7 ANSWERING SERVICE AND REMOTE CONTROL FUNCTION
• Various devices can be switched on and off remotely (e.g. air conditioner, lights, irriga-
tion system, etc.) by sending DTMF commands to any telephone and switching the
communicator outputs which are programmed as remotely controllable (U3, U4,
U5). If enabled, the communicator will answer incoming calls at any time, except for
when it is making alarm calls. To remotely control a device, call the CT10-M/CT11-M
GSM number or PSTN number (CT11-M only) and wait for an answer. GSM calls will be
answered after at least six rings (heard by the caller). PSTN calls will be answered after
a programmable number of rings (2-4-8, see paragraph 8.4).
• Answers are notified by a tone allowing the caller to dial the USER CODE (in DTMF)
within 30 seconds. A confirmation tone will be heard after each digit. A sequence of
three confirmation tones will be heard at the end of the code if the code is correct.
Otherwise a long error tone will be heard. Three attempts to enter the correct code can
be made before the call is ended.
• The remote control can be used to switch the required outputs (see sequence in the
following figure) after the code has been accepted. This operation requires a three-digit
code:
- 5: defines the type of “output switching” command.
- 3 or 4 or 5: defines the output number to be switched
- 1 or 0 is used to activate or deactivate the required output.
The communicator will give priority to an alarm triggered during the remote control
procedure. No on/off commands will be accepted and a WRONG CODE BEEP will be
output. Hang up.
• Each remotely controllable output can be programmed as maintained or timed.
- Status changes follow the command if the output is maintained.
- The on command (1) will activate the output and the timer while the off command
(0) will anticipate the time-out (if this has not already occurred) if the output is timed.
• The user has one minute from code recognition to complete the remote control opera-
tions. If no codes are sent by this time-out, the communicator will end the call in
progress and clear the line.
• The communicator will send a short confirmation tone after receiving each remote
control. A longer tone will be heard in the case of the following errors:
- programmed output other than “remotely programmable”
- wrong code
• If the code is accepted, the communicator will send the voice message recorded by the
user to confirm implementation of the control.
•At this point, the user will need to enter the “5” code again to switch other
outputs (or the same output) at the end of the voice message
NOTE: You are advised to deactivate the “ANSWERING SERVICE” function provided
by the GSM operator.
• SKIP ANSWERING MACHINE MESSAGE (CT11-M only)
Connect to the communicator as follows if an answering machine is fitted on the PSTN
line used by the CT11-M:
- call the PSTN telephone number
- wait for a single ring tone
- hang up quickly
- call the number again
