1. Installation
Find a suitable place where to mount the GSM gateway following these guide lines:
Make sure the GSM coverage is good before the GSM gateway is mounted.
Place the Gateway near a window if possible.
Make sure the LEDs on both sides are visible.
Make sure there is a power source, 230 VAC or 12-24 VDC reachable.
Connect the antenna. Place the antenna as far away from the Gateway as possible.
The antenna can be placed on any magnetic metal surface.
Connect the FältCom ECII™Flex to the Phone input.
Use the 122033 Modular cable and the terminal connector if required.
1.1 PIN code
Note: The GSM gateway must always be turned off before inserting or removing the SIM card. Please
see section “Turn off the GSM Gateway” before removing a SIM card.
Choose whether the PIN code should be activated or deactivated.
1.1.1 PIN code deactivated
Use a mobile phone or other equipment to deactivate the PIN code on the SIM card.
1.1.2 PIN code activated
The PIN code must be set to “1234”. Use a mobile phone or other equipment to set the PIN code to
“1234”.
At startup the GSM Gateway will automatically change the PIN code to a random 4-digit code to
prevent misusage of the SIM card. If the SIM card is to be used later; use the PUK code to unlock the
SIM.
1.2 Startup
Start the GSM Gateway:
Gently insert the SIM-card into the GSM unit as shown in the pictures above.
Make sure the cut corner of the SIM is on the left side and the connector pads facing down.
Connect the power cable.
The startup might take up to 30 seconds before the GSM Gateway has established a
connection with the GSM network. For information on how to understand the LED indications,
please see section 2 and section 3 below.
1.3 Turn off the GSM Gateway
1. Remove the DC power connector from the GSM Gateway.
2. Push the RESET button with a short push to turn the unit off.
1.4 Change SIM card
If the SIM-card needs to be changed; the new SIM-card must have “1234” as PIN-codes or have the
PIN-code deactivated.
1. Turn off the GSM Gateway; remove the DC power connector from the GSM Gateway.
2. Push the RESET button with a short push to turn the unit off.
3. Remove the old SIM and insert the new SIM as shown in the pictures above.
4. Connect the power cable.

4. Battery
The battery is supervised in two different ways. The first “low battery voltage indication” is activated
when the battery voltage is too low for any reason. The second is a “battery fault alarm” activated
when the battery capacity is too low and it is time to replace the battery.
In case there is a battery alarm/low battery voltage indication, the GSM Gateway will change the dial
tone; see section Technical Data for information on Dial tone battery alarm specifications. The
emergency alarm will detect the new dial tone and send a battery alarm to the receiver. See section 5
SMS functionality or 6.2 Setup for information on how to turn the Dial tone battery alarm off.
4.1 Low battery voltage indication
A “low battery voltage indication” is activated if the battery voltage drops below 4.6 VDC when the unit
is powered by the battery.
The indication is sent by SMS. Please view SMS functionality for information on settings or how to use
the USB connector and FältCom Manager Software.
If the unit is powered by the battery and the battery voltage drops below 4.0 VDC the GSM Gateway
will shut off to prevent permanent damage of the battery. These voltage levels are not programmable.
4.2 Battery fault alarm
A “battery fault alarm” is shown by a red LED, see section 2 above, and by a change of the normal dial
tone, see section 5.2 below.
The first battery test is made after 48 hours and the following every 24 hour. During a battery test a
load is connected to the battery and the battery voltage measured. A battery test lasts for 5 (1) minutes
and if the voltage drops below 4.4 (2) VDC during this time a “battery fault alarm”is activated.
A battery test will not be performed when the GSM Gateway is powered by the battery. An active
“battery fault alarm”is automatically reset after a passed battery test.
Normally the battery will last 2-4 years but this is very much depending on the surrounding
temperature and how much the battery is used. When the battery is failing, simply replace the battery
with an equivalent type, replacement batteries are available from FältCom sales. Other types of
battery might damage the GSM Gateway.
A polyswitch fuse is integrated in the battery package to prevent it from damage in case of high
temperatures. The fuse is automatically reset when the temperature is normal again.
(1) 5 minutes is the default setting. The time is programmable via USB (FältCom Manager).
(2) 4.4 V is the default setting. The levels for the “battery fault alarm”is programmable via USB
(FältCom Manager) or via SMS by the distributor.

5. SMS functionality
Note: The symbol means new line.
5.1 Low battery voltage indication
It is possible to generate an SMS when a Low battery voltage indication occurs; the functionality is
activated by sending an SMS to the GSM Gateway. The SMS must include the telephone number and
an alarm text. The SMS is not case sensitive. See picture below for an example. In the example below
the battery alarm level is not changed.
SMS to GSM Gateway SMS from GSM Gateway
The GSM will acknowledge a correct programming by returning a SMS as above.
In the example below the battery alarm level is changed to 4.0 V (4000 mV).
SMS to GSM Gateway SMS from GSM Gateway
The GSM will acknowledge a correct programming by returning a SMS as above.
In this example a Low battery voltage indication will generate the following SMS from the GSM
Gateway:
SMS from GSM Gateway
It is possible to generate an SMS (Bares) when the battery voltage gets above the set voltage level.
This function is activated by sending an SMS to the GSM Gateway. The SMS must include an
appropriate text. The SMS is not case sensitive. See picture below for an example. Bares SMS is
always sent to the same number as Balarm.

SMS to GSM Gateway SMS from GSM Gateway
The GSM Gateway will acknowledge a correct programming by returning a SMS as above.
In this example when the power to the Gateway is reestablished and the battery voltage is above the
set voltage level the following SMS from the GSM Gateway:
SMS from GSM Gateway
Both functions described above are switched off by sending the following SMS to the GSM Gateway:
SMS to GSM Gateway SMS from GSM Gateway
The SMS is acknowledged with a SMS from the GSM Gateway.
The Battery replaced SMS (Bares) function described above can be switched off separately by
sending the following SMS to the GSM Gateway:
SMS to GSM Gateway SMS from GSM Gateway
The SMS is acknowledged with an SMS from the GSM Gateway.
5.2 Dial tone battery alarm - Dial tone 2
The Dial tone battery alarm indicating a battery fault alarm, to the lift phone is default activated but can
be turned off. In case the function is deactivated the GSM Gateway will always use normal dial tone
when the line is taken off-hook.
To deactivate the Dial tone battery alarm (dial tone 2); send the left side SMS to the GSM Gateway.
The Gateway will return the answer on the right side.

5.3 Status
Get current status of the GW by sending a “Status” SMS. The SMS must contain the SMS Access code followed
by a new line and the word Status. The default Access code is 1111 and can be changed using the FältCom
Manager SW. If the access code or the request command (Status) is incorrect the GSM Gateway will not answer
the SMS.
