INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ
PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU DISCONNECT THE POWER WHEN YOU FIT THE SIM
CARD THEN PLACE THE SIM CARD WITH THE CLIPPED CORNER
FACING OUT WARDS. PLEASE SEE PICTURE ABOVE.
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, by texting 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 the unit will be unreliable.
You can purchase a 3 metre antenna booster from the website www.gsm-activate.co.uk to
give the unit better signal strength.
1. Slide back the sim door and lift it up.
2. Slide the simcard into the door making sure that the clipped corner of
the simcard lines up with the clipped corner of the simcard holder.
3. Close the sim door.
4. Slide the sim door to lock the simcard in place.
—------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When you first switch the unit on the red and blue led will come on for 3 seconds.
The blue led will then go out leaving just the red led on.
When the unit finds a signal the red led will go out and the blue will come on and
must stay on before you can operate the unit.

The RED LED will flash 6 times to indicate that the reset has been successful.
How does the Auto-Dialer work?
The Auto-Dialer has two alarm inputs and one 10 amp relay output. When an input is
activated the blue led will start to flash 6x times this indicates that alarm signal has been
triggered.
INPUT 1: (te x t mode ) When activated it will automatically send a text message to 3 pre-
programmed numbers that you have programmed into your Auto-Dialer. The text message
will say (“ALARM”).
INPUT 2: (Ph o n e c a ll mo d e ) When activated it will automatically dial out to 3 pre-
programmed numbers. After dialling the numbers it will hang up after 6 ring tones. This will
prevent any call charges being made to the simcard.
AUTO RESET:
This will happen automatically when the input trigger is reset. The Auto-Dialer will then be
ready for the next trigger input.
*You will receive a text acknowledgement “MESSAGE
STORED” once the unit has changed the message.
NOTE
You can only use a maximum of 30 characters including spaces for your
customised message.

RELAY OUTPUT:
This unit has a 10 amp relay output which can be used to turn on external equipment
such as an alarm bell or lighting. The relay is programmed to come on when the Auto-
Dialer has been triggered for a period of 30 seconds.
Note
Please make sure you have credit on your simcard to receive text messages and
acknowledgments.
Depending on how busy your telephone network is at the time it may take some time to
receive a text acknowledgement.
The unit has a “sim active” function which monitors the activity on the simcard. If it has
been inactive for 6 weeks it sends a text to a pre-recorded number. This will then
eliminate any issues of the simcard getting shut down if they are unused for 3 months.
New SIM cards will need registering before they can be used. Full details of how this is
done can normally be found in the SIM card pack. It will normally require that the SIM
card is inserted into a mobile phone, a number dialled and instructions followed. Details
of how to do this can be found on the SIM card provider’s web site or by calling their
customer services. Please use one of the following SIM card providers (Vodafone,
TMobile, O2 or Orange).
We do not recommend using 3 at this present time
