GSM pager for cars with an installed car alarm
Main features for this mode:
• Sending SMS messages automatically after the inputs have been
activated and sending information SMS messages to up to 4
mobile phones.
• Dialling pre-programmed phone numbers after input activation
and giving an acoustic warning signal.
• Monitoring the vehicle‘s movement via GPS (Global Positioning
System).
• Passing data to the central monitoring station.
• Remote immobilization (blocking the circuit) via SMS instructions.
• Remote control and programming of the CA-1803BT from a mobile
phone.
• Hands-free calling and remotely listening-in to a space (receiving of
any incoming calls and dialling up to 4 pre-programmed phone
numbers).
• Extension of functions via the CR-11A module, for example, operating
an independent car appliance via SMS (12V only).
• Internet access and configuration from the www.GSMLink.cz web site.
1 Before installation
The CA-1803BT GSM pager should only be installed by a professional
installer. It is designed to be installed inside a car. A voltage supply of 12V
or 24V is required with a negative ground connection. During the first
power-up, the value of supply voltage is read and the inputs are set to
default settings.
Disconnect the car battery before starting installation. For airbag-
equipped cars, no person is allowed to stay inside the car while handling
the battery. Disconnecting the battery can cause a reset of some of the
car’s devices (e.g. clock, default settings etc.). Avoid drilling into the metal
parts of the car body. The manufacturer is not responsible for damage
caused by any incorrect or unsuitable application of the product.
For crimping, special purpose tools should be used. If you do not use
some of the cables, cut them off at a distance of 10cm from the connector,
insulate them properly and tie them into a bunch.
For cars with a voltage supply of 24V, the following restrictions
apply to car alarm installation:
1. It is not possible to connect a hands-free set of type HF-03.
2. When used for acoustic signalling, the SIR output is switched to the
power supply voltage. Consequently, this output switches to 24V, so it
is necessary to use a siren of type SA-606-24V (instead of the SA-530
which is supplied in the standard package).
2 The wiring
• Yellow – output siren – switches to +12V (24 V) / max. 1.3 A for 30
seconds after input activation (optional).
• Grey – instant activation. It reacts to connection or disconnection
from ground The reaction time is 70ms.
• White – input INP. It reacts to a connection or a disconnection from
the ground The reaction time is 3 seconds.
• Blue – signals that the ignition key is turned on. Reacts to +12V
(24V). When you are installing it inside a car, make sure that a voltage
is present in the connecting wire while starting. The activation of input
INP is blocked during the ignition key input activation and, if installed, a
hands free set can be used.
• Green – LED indicator – should be installed in a visible place on the
dashboard.
• Black – ground – connect to the original grounding point.
• Red – power supply +12V (24V) - connect directly to the battery. The
power should be turned on only after a thorough check of the whole
installation has been made!
• Orange – back-up battery – connects to a back-up battery of type BB-
02 (capacity 450 mAh, consumption up to 20 mA.). This feature is
optional.
• 2x Brown – immobilization circuit (max. 8A constantly, 12A
intermittently).
• Pink – output AUX – bus communication for modules CR-11A
It is possible to attach a hands-free set of type HF-03 1. Using this you are
able to phone via the GSM pager, and also to remotely listen-in after the
immobilization circuit has been blocked. The HF set connects to the RJ
connector on the front side of the car alarm unit.
3 SIM card insertion
1. Make sure, that the PIN number on the SIM is disabled. If the SIM
card does not allow you to switch the PIN off, set the PIN to 0000.
Remember (note down) the phone number of your SIM card. It is
recommended to delete all original records in the SIM card’s phone
directory.
2. Insertion of the SIM card: using a thin object, press the yellow peg
in order to pull out the SIM card holder (the front side of the unit),
1these accessories are optional
insert the SIM card into the casing with the conducting contacts facing up
and push the casing back carefully up to the sticking point.
3. Install and attach the GSM antenna– (the GSM pager must not be
connected to a power supply unless a GSM antenna is connected !!!). The
antenna is equipped with an adhesive tape and has to be stuck onto the car’s
window. The antenna must not be installed to metal parts. The antenna should
not be installed close to the pager or near other electronic devices. It is
recommended to install the antenna in a place where it is not easily visible (like,
for instance, on a tinted part of the window). Clear and dry the spot carefully.
4. Install provided GPS antenna - place the antenna so that it will not be
shielded by metal parts of the car. It can be installed just under the top part of a
dashboard (turned with the black plastic cover upward) (the antenna can be
shielded by plastic materials). Wrap both connectors using plastic sticky tape as
they are connected to GND.
5. Check the wiring and connect the power supply. A flash of the indicator and
a beep of the siren (if connected) indicate connecting to the GSM network. Wait
until the indicator turns off (up to 1 minute). After that the CA-1803BT is logged
in to the GSM network.
If the flash does not disappear within 1 minute, it means that the login
process failed. If such a case occurs, turn off the power supply, pull out the
SIM card, ensure that the SIM contacts are clean, insert the card into a
mobile phone and check, whether a connection can be established in that
particular place. Also make sure that the SIM card‘s PIN is turned off (or that
it is set to 0000). If the mobile phone connection check is successful, return
the SIM card to the GSM pager and repeat the whole procedure. At least 10
unused positions for phone numbers are required in the SIM card memory.
4 After turning the power supply on
In order to use the functionality of the GSM pager according to your needs you first
have to set up its logic and behaviour by the RESET command. Subsequently,
phone numbers and other optional parameters should be set up and an RC-8x key
fob can be enrolled. The set-up can be done in the following ways:
• ·by editing a record in the SIM card phone directory (it is the simplest
setting method but limited to some functions only, see table 5.1). These settings
(which determine the devices‘ behaviour) are read from the SIM card after each
powering up of the car alarm. After the initial powering up of the new car alarm
with a new (blank) SIM card, configuration records (names) are created in the
SIM card’s phone directory and the default values set. But in the case that the
alarm had been set before and a new (blank) SIM card is inserted then the
stored parameters are copied from the internal memory to the SIM card. This
will help you after SIM card changing. You can perform basic settings of some of
the car alarm’s functions by pulling the SIM card out of the alarm (after the
power supply has been disconnected) and subsequently inserting it into a
mobile phone where you assign numbers to the names of functions displayed in
the phone directory from the SIM. See table 5.1 for setting the car alarm’s
optional parameters. Settings from the SIM card are read after its insertion and
powering up.
• via the Internet page www.GSMLink.cz which is the most convenient
way. To register there you need the registration code printed on the
warranty card and the master code (factory default is MASTER). For more
information, see chapter 10.
• by sending command SMS messages via a mobile phone, see table 5.1.
Using the CA-1803BT as a GSM pager, it is necessary to set RESET EN 3.
You can perform it by an SMS instruction “MASTER RESET EN 3” which
has to be sent to the GSM pager’s SIM card number. Performing a RESET
is indicated by 4 beeps. The factory default is RESET 0 without any function
assigned, except that the immobilization relay switches on after the ignition
key has been turned on. It is possible to put the GSM pager to RESET 0
mode also in the case, that its functionality should be cancelled entirely.
By carrying out a RESET, you delete all the GSM pager settings as well as
all the previously enrolled remote controllers and wireless sensors.

GSM pager CA-1803BT „Athos“ 2/6 MHF56801
5 Enrollment of remote controls
Up to 4 RC-8x remote controllers can be enrolled. This mode only allows
the controllers to operate the HF-03 hands-free set.
Steps to enroll controllers:
1. Turn the ignition on (power supply assumed).
2. Send the SMS instruction MASTER LEARN RC
3. The GSM pager beeps 3 times (if a siren is connected) and an LED
starts to flash.
4. The RC-8x controller is enrolled by pressing buttons and
simultaneously for approx. 3 seconds (at first, the LED has to flash quickly,
then a single long flash should appear). A siren chirp confirms the enrollment.
By enrolling the first remote control all other remote controls previously enrolled
will be erased (so enroll all the controllers intended for use, one by one).
5. Exit enrollment by turning the ignition off. The GSM pager confirms the
enrollment by sending an SMS message to authorized phones TEL1 to
TEL4.
If no siren has been connected, it is necessary that after finishing the enrollment
you verify that all key fobs are enrolled. Pressing any button on the RC-8x
controller causes a LED of the GSM pager to flash.

8 Controlling the alarm
8.1 Use of the original remote control
The Athos is active (armed) when the car is locked using the original remote
control and disarmed when the car is unlocked using the original keyfob. If
the door lock is opened using the key an alarm is triggered. For interrupting
the alarm, the car must then be unlocked using the original keyfob. In some
car types, the car must be locked again, first using the key and then unlocked
using the original keyfob to interrupt this alarm.
8.2 SMS control from an authorized phone
The SMS commands AM and DM can be used but they do not change
the door lock status. They just change the Athos status.
Text SMS Description
IMO STOP (immobilize) the vehicle (after turning ignition key off)
UNIMO Unblock (mobilize) the vehicle
STATUS Reply with status information, e.g. GSM pager reports:
Time: 27.01.04 13:04, Status: Armed, Unblocked, Ignition
of“.
HELP The car alarm will reply with a brief list of SMS instructions.

e - ringing tone volume 0=mute to 9= max., (5)
f – ringing sound 0 to 9, (1)
GPS Sends information about the latest detected location using
GPS coordinates (Global Position System)
SIREN To activate the siren for 30 seconds
• The instruction must contain spaces (e.g. HF 105551).
• If an SMS instruction is sent from an unauthorized phone, it is
necessary to put a user code before the instruction (default is USER).
Again, a space is necessary. Example: USER IMO
• SMS instructions are not case-sensitive. Only basic ASCII can be used
in the SMS instruction texts.
• If the SMS text contains the % sign, then the following text will be
ignored. Characters %% in the message stop processing the
following text. Using these characters is suitable when sending an
SMS from an internet gateway which adds more text –
advertisements etc. When using the % character it is always
necessary to insert the Master or User code followed by a space
before the command itself.
• SMS instructions can be renamed. Example: It is possible to replace
“IMO“ by “BLOCK“.
• The parameters in bold are factory defaults.
8.3 Phone calls by handsfree set (HF-03)
If the HF-03 hands free set is installed, it is possible to receive calls and
to dial pre-programmed phone numbers DIAL x. When the ignition key
is on, an RC-8x allows you to operate the hands free set. A voltage of
+12V is required on the ignition key input when a call starts or ends. The
call is done via the car alarm’s SIM, the handsfree set is not usable for
other phones.
Incoming calls – to answer them, press any button on the RC-8x
remote control. By pressing any button again, the call will be terminated.
Calls can be automatically answered, see the HF instruction manual.
Outgoing calls – when the ignition key is on (i.e. when a voltage of
+12V is present on its input), the RC-8x allows you to call up to 4 pre-
programmed numbers (see the configuration table).
If the ignition key is off (i.e. no voltage of +12V is present on its input), all
incoming calls are automatically rejected. If the car is immobilized all calls are
automatically answered (it is possible to listen in).
8.4 Alarm
When an alarm is triggered, the siren output will be switched for 30 sec.,
warning SMS messages will be sent to all phones (TEL1 to TEL4).
Subsequently, these phones will also be called by the GSM pager. If
automatic location is turned on, a request for location detection is sent.
The LED indicates the alarm for 2 minutes. To activate inputs subsequently,
an interval of at least two minutes is required.
To stop the alarm, disarm the alarm by pressing the button on the
remote control.
Example of an alarm SMS:
Your car reports: Alarm, INP activation, Time 10.12.04 01:45
9 Editing SMS texts
The SMS texts (alarm information and instructions) are factory pre-
programmed. However, it is possible to change these texts using a
mobile phone or via the www.GSMLink.cz internet page. This makes
communication convenient for the user.
To change text by mobile phone, send an SMS as below. A single SMS
enables you to specify changes to several texts. Terminate each text
with a comma:
MASTER TXT zz,text,zz,text,…
where: zz is the text index (see following table)
text is your new text – up to 30 characters, full stop (dot) or
comma cannot be used in the text, spaces are allowed
Example: MASTER TXT 03,BLOCK PLEASE
Text numbers 01 to 26 are instructions requiring a MASTER code for
their modification. If you modify these texts, you change the instructions
which the GSM pager will respond to. For example, replacing “STATUS”
with “STATE PASSWORD” will cause state detection to be only
obtainable by “STATE PASSWORD”. This way you can insert a
“password” into the texts which prevents misuse. All other texts are of
informational character and correspond to particular events, states and
input names. This allows you to adjust the names to a form which suits
you well. For example, “INP 1” can be replaced with “bonnet” etc. Texts
can be replaced using the MASTER code as well as the USER code
(optional).
A convenient way for text modification is to use the GSMLink web
page, see paragraph 11. (11)

10 Functions related to GPS
An integrated GPS (Global Position System) allows the car alarm to
provide information about car location with a high precision. The location
can be obtained upon an SMS request or via the GSMLink internet web
page. A service for regularly sent location information is also available.
The car alarm is capable of recording all the car’s locations into internal
memory while the car is being used (optional).
Records can be used for statistics about car use (route listing etc.). The
information is also partially available via the GSMLink internet page.
Fully-fledged use is possible using a special service only. In that case, a
central monitoring station is required with information being automatically
downloaded. For more information, consult the manufacturer or visit the
http://www.jablotron.com/web page.
10.1 Location detection using GPS
Using a GPS instruction, you can instantly detect the car’s location. The
car alarm responds with the coordinates of the latest known location. If
the current location is not available at the time of reception of the
instruction, or if the car alarm does not change its global position for a
while, the latest location stored in internal memory is sent. Therefore,
messages are supplemented with GMT (Greenwich Mean Time). The
value corresponds to the time of detection related to the prime meridian.
In addition, information about altitude, velocity and local time of the GSM
network is provided. To monitor the car temporarily, you can use the
GPS ON instruction which makes the alarm send information about

GSM pager CA-1803BT „Athos“ 5/6 MHF56801
location after every 1km of distance moved (limited to 15 messages). In
addition, information about location can be sent automatically after an
alarm has been triggered (see the DIP switches description).
An example of an instruction sent from an authorized phone: GPS ON
An example of response: Car alarm reports: Location: (GMT:3.12.10:35)
50*43.495N;15*11.253E;515;50, Time:3.12.05 11:35

515 altitude (approximated)
50 current velocity
TimeCas:3.12.05 11:35 current local time
10.2 Time zone setting
To adjust the time information to local time, time zone setting is possible.
The car alarm adds/subtracts the time shift, expressed in hours, to the
GMT time (for middle Europe: +2 hours in summer time, +1 hour in
winter time). This instruction is only available with the MASTER code.
Instruction: MASTER TIME ±xy
xy is the time shift in hours -3,-2 …+1,+2 relative to GMT
`
MASTER TIME GSM
turns on automatic setting via incoming SMS.
10.3 Integrated Bluetooth module (BT)
A Bluetooth module is supplied as a built-in part of the CA-1803BT car alarm.
The module allows the car alarm to communicate with nearby devices
equipped with Bluetooth connectivity. For devices like PDAs, MBAs or
mobile phones, such communication can make use of navigation software
running on these devices. When disarmed and with the ignition key on, the
car alarm sends GPS coordinates via the BT which can be used for
navigation. The car alarm authorization code for device-pairing is 0000. The
ignition key must be on during the pairing process.
If the car stands still for more than 10 minutes, GPS data transmission
may start with a delay of up to 1 minute.
11 Internet remote access
The web site www.GSMLink.cz enables remote control (to users) and
setting (to installers) of the GSM pager.
To get internet access to an installed and powered car alarm you will
first be asked to register your car alarm on the first page. You will find a
unique registration code for your car alarm on the warranty card.
12 Central monitoring station communication
The GSM communicator allows central monitoring via GPRS data protocol.
The central monitoring station (CMS) gets arming, disarming and alarm
information. It also regularly checks the communication link to the car after it
is armed. So if anyone tries to tamper with GSM communications, it will
indicate an alarm at the CMS.
13 Additional features
13.1 Remote siren activation
You can operate the siren remotely by the SIREN instructions. These
instructions are accepted from all authorized (stored) phone numbers.
Commands are also accepted from any unknown phone number if they start
with the USER code.

13.3 Pre-paid SIM card balance
It is recommended not to use prepaid cards in the car alarm. If you have
no other choice than prepaid cards, you can enable the CREDIT
instruction by the following sequence:
MASTER CREDIT uuu..u xx yyy zz
where: uuu…u is the provider’s code to obtain the balance
xx is the time period (in days) for regular checking
yyy is the threshold level below which the balance is
reported to the user (TEL1)
zz is the position of the first digit of the balance in the reply
SMS from the provider
• After this sequence has been sent once, the GSM pager will check
the balance automatically every xx days and if the balance is lower
than yyy the user will be notified (TEL1)
• If the CREDIT instruction is enabled in the above way, the user
can also obtain the current balance by the instruction CREDIT
• To disable the automatic balance checking set the time period “xx”
to 00.
13.4 Roaming
If you travel abroad and your SIM card supports roaming, the pager will
work there too except for the LOCATOR and CREDIT functions and the
GPRS data communication which will not be available.
13.5 Reset GSM
If you need to disconnect and then reconnect the GSM module to the GSM
network, then use the command “MASTER RESET GSM”.
This does not affect any settings and is typically used for GPRS activation or
charging up credit. This command always requires the Master code.
13.6 Service instruction
The DINFO instruction allows you to obtain current settings, information
about the quality of the GSM signal, the registration code for GSMLink
devices and some other parameters. This command always requires the
Master code.
Example of instruction: MASTER DINFO

AUX bus – this mode allows you to connect up to four CR-11A modules
to the bus. This enables you to extend car alarm functionality via the
power output. There are two outputs available: A and B. They can be
operated by pressing two buttons together on the key fob RC-8x (see
instructions to CR-11A), or using SMS instructions. This allows you to
operate independent heating, refrigerators, flashing lights etc.). The car
must not be immobilized by use of this module, because the output
reacts to incoming SMS instructions in every state of the car alarm, in
particular, while the car is on the run, thus possibly not under the user’s
control which could cause a traffic accident.
Instruction Status
AUXA (B) Relay switches on for 1 second
AUXA ON (OFF)
AUXB ON (OFF)
ON - Switch on permanently*
OFF – Switch off permanently*
AUXA xxM in xxxS
AUXB xxM in xxxS
xxM – numeric value of requested
duration of the relay to be switched
on, in minutes
xxxS – as above, in seconds
Example of an instruction to switch B relay on for 30 seconds:
AUXB 30S
* Maximum switch-on time is 60 minutes.
* If a relay (A or B) is switched on while arming, it will be switched off. In
addition, the A relay, when switched on, will also be switched off while
disarming.
15 The back-up battery and voltage monitoring
To handle an absence of supply voltage in the car (disconnecting the
main battery, deliberate damage etc.) the car alarm is equipped with a
BB-02 backup battery. The battery supplies the car alarm when no
supply voltage is present (for 5 hours minimum). Except for the acoustic
siren, the BB-02 backs-up all the functions of the car alarm. The car

GSM pager CA-1803BT „Athos“ 6/6 MHF56801
alarm is supplied with a small current from the BB-02. Fully charging a
fully discharged battery requires 5 days. In the case of a supply voltage
outage, the BB-02 starts to generate a voltage either for the outage
duration or until it is completely discharged. While testing it or being
handled, it is possible to protect the backup battery from being
completely discharged by briefly shorting the BB-02’s terminals (the BB-
02 has to be disconnected from the power supply). This causes
disconnection of the electronics inside the back-up battery. In the case of
switch-over to BB-02 operation (after a voltage drop under 8.5V or after
complete disconnection of the battery), an SMS will be sent with
information about backup battery operation. An SMS will also be sent
after the recovery of the main power supply voltage (at least 10
minutes).
16 Emergency RESET
In the case of an emergency, when no installation MASTER code is
available, it is possible to perform an emergency RESET of the car alarm
even without the code. Such a reset causes the car alarm to be set to
factory defaults, including access codes (stated in the manual). Caution:
all pre-programmed numbers, Locator parameters, DIP and SET
parameters will be deleted. You perform an emergency reset as follows:
Turn the power supply (including back-up battery, if any) off. Pull the SIM
card out of the car alarm and insert it into a phone, enter “RESET” as a
name into the SIM card’s phone directory, and enter “0” for the
corresponding phone number. Insert the SIM card back into the car
alarm and turn the power supply on. The reset is indicated by 4 beeps.
