Memco Memcom GSM 452 850 User manual

The Memcom GSM Terminal provides the interface between the Memcom Lift Emergency telephone and the mobile
telephone network. This guide assumes that the Memcom has already been installed. The installer/customer needs to
provide a suitable SIM card to activate.
Installation
Memcom GSM Gateway
Installation Guide
The GSM terminal would normally be installed in the lift motor room or lift shaft with the Memcom on top of the lift car or
inside the car operator panel. The antenna should be mounted where a good signal can be received; this may require a
risk assessment of antenna position.

Connections to Memcom
Ref No. 452 850 (GB) Version 8

GSM IG V08 (GB)
The battery-backed +12V supply from the Memcom is available using the power breakout cable provided. The +12V core
is sleeved red, the 0V core is sleeved black. This is then connected to the travelling cables to take the power supply to
the GSM terminal. The maximum resistance for each core is 1ohm. Use more cores in parallel if it is a very long run and the
resistance is higher than 1ohm.
Note: If a battery-backed +12V power supply is available at the GSM installation point then this may be used instead,
a current of 0.5A peak would be required. Note that unless this supply is monitored then the system may not be EN81
compliant.
The Memcom PSTN connections are wired so Pin 1 of the 1st Memcom is connected to Pin 1 of the next Memcom and so
on. Pin 1 of any Memcom is connected to the GSM “TIP” on the terminal block.
Similarly, all the Memcom Pin 2 connections are wired together and then to the GSM “RING” input. Do not swap over any
connections as problems with the Memcom and the GSM will occur.
