Product Information
The GSM 3G Keypad incorporates a professional industrial grade GSM engine that
receives calls at its SIM number, as any ordinary GSM phone. The system operates in the
GSM module Quad-band 850/900/1800/1900/2100Mhz and 3G frequencies.
To give an example, if your SIM has a phone number 07228 9810555, this is the number
you call to open the gate. The system has a memory where you will store the numbers of
people enabled to open your gate (up to 60). When the Gate Opener receives a call, it will
check the calling number. If the number is in the list you have prepared, it will reject the call
and open the gate.
The advantages of this over other systems are that you do not have to leave the car to open
your gates. Therefore, avoiding weather or safety issues. Furthermore, you don't need to
carry around a separate remote device or indeed replace it if it were to get lost!

INSTRUCTIONS
Powering 3G GSM Keypad
Connect 12 volts to the input connector as per figure 1. Once power has been applied the
blue network LED light will flash once every second. Once a signal has been found the
green ready LED will come on and stay on indicating the unit is now ready for use.
Signal Strength
To help make sure that you place the unit in a suitable position you can text the unit to see
how much signal strength the dialler is receiving. Simply text the units number the
command
#SIGNAL#
The dialler will perform a test on the signal strength. You will receive a text telling you a
signal strength score between 0 up to 30 we strongly recommend that you place the unit
where you can receive a signal strength score of at least 10. You will find that with a score
of less than 10 will make the unit unreliable.

simcard into the holder ensuring that the clipped corner of the simcard lines up with the
clipped corner of the simcard holder.

How to use the 3G GSM Gate Keypad
To open the gate, use your mobile phone or landline to dial the simcard number within the
unit. It will ring once. The unit will automatically hang up, this prevents any call charges
being incurred. The relay will then pulse for a period of time, this is the unit sending a
signal to your gate control board to open the gate.
Relay Pulse Time
The unit has an adjustable relay pulse time for the phone call activation. The relay will
either pulse for 3 seconds or 9 seconds. This is because some gate control boards require
a very quick pulse whereas others require a slower pulse.
To change the pulse time you can send the following text command
#SLOW# To set the relay pulse time to 9 seconds
#FAST# To set the relay pulse to 3 seconds
The default setting is fast.
Texting the Gate to Lock Open
If you need to keep the gate permanently open, you can text the unit #OPEN#
To close the gate using text commands please send the text
#CLOSE#
IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ
Please note some gate systems do not have the facility to allow the gate to stay open.
Please refer to your gate control system manual for further information.
SIM Active Function
The unit has a built in “SIM Active” function. This monitors the activity on the simcard and if
it has been inactive for 6 weeks it will send a phone call to a pre-recorded number. This will
then eliminate the issue of SIM’s getting shut down if they are unused for 3 months.

Program Keypad Entry
The gate keypad allows you to gain access by using the built in keypad using a 4 digit
code. Up to 50 codes can be stored within the system. You programme the keypad codes
via SMS message then give the code to those you trust to access the gates. They simply
need to punch in the 4 digit code to gain access in the future. The codes can be any
combination of 4 digits you choose. Below is an example of how to programme the code
in.
Example: #4073#STORE# This adds a keypad code
#4073#DEL# This deletes a keypad code
If the code is accepted you will hear 4 beeps. If you make an incorrect entry you will hear
a singular long beep and you will need to start again.
Keypad Tone Settings
The keypad tone sound can switched on and off via a text command.
#BEEP=ON# Turns the keypad tone sound ON
#BEEP=OFF# Turns the keypad tone sound OFF
The default setting is ON
Keypad Reset
To reset keypad codes only please send the text #KEYPAD=RESET#
