1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Mobeye ThermoGuard is a battery operated GSM module used to send out an alarm
after a triggered input or - if external power supply is used- after a power failure.
The Mobeye ThermoGuard is pre-programmed with standard action-reaction patterns. To
change this behaviour please refer to chapter 4.
The factory settings of the Mobeye ThermoGuard cause following reactions:
- In case of a temperature alarm, the Mobeye ThermoGuard sends an alarm SMS text
message and calls to the phone numbers as programmed. The SMS message contains
the text ‘Temperature too high’ or ‘Temperature too low’, followed by the measured
temperature.
- As soon as the temperature gets back to a value inside the range, an SMS text message
is sent to the set telephone numbers containing the text ‘Temperature OK’.
- In case one of the inputs is activated by a sensor, the Mobeye ThermoGuard sends an
alarm SMS text message and calls to the phone numbers as programmed by the user.
- In case the temperature and/or the inputs remain in the alarm status, the Mobeye
ThermoGuard repeats sending the SMS alarm message every hour.
- In case the temperature sensor is removed, the Mobeye ThermoGuard sends an SMS
text message to the administrator (first telephone number) containing the text
‘Temperature sensor not connected’.
- In case the batteries need to be replaced, the Mobeye ThermoGuard sends a ‘battery low’
SMS text message to the administrator.
- In case an external power supply is used and a power failure occurs, the Mobeye
ThermoGuard sends a ‘power failure’ SMS text message to the administrator. In case the
power is restored, the Mobeye ThermoGuard sends a ‘power restored’ SMS text message
to the administrator.

2. GETTING STARTED
To get started with the Mobeye ThermoGuard at least the following steps need to be taken
in following order:
1. Place SIM card (with PIN code 0000 or without PIN code)
2. Connect the temperature sensor to the unit
3. Place the batteries
4. Enter the program mode
5. Program at least one telephone number (administrators’ number)
6. Set a minimum and/or maximum temperature limit
7. Arming/disarming the system
These steps are further explained in this chapter. After these steps the module will be
operational.
2.1 PLACE A SIM CARD
Open the enclosure with the 4 screws and insert a SIM card into the module. Push the
black cover outward slightly to open the holder. Before installing the SIM card should have
PIN code "0000", or be free of a PIN code.
(A PIN code can be changed or removed by putting the SIM card in a mobile phone and change or
remove the PIN in the security menu.)
NB: make sure the SIM card is inserted before the batteries are placed. In case of a SIM
card change, please first remove the batteries (and remove any other external power
supply).
2.2 CONNECT THE TEMPERATURE SENSOR TO THE UNIT
Plug the external temperature sensor into the metal socket and press it firmly.
2.3 PLACE THE BATTERIES
Place the two batteries (CR123) in the module. Use the +/- indication for the correct
placement. The green LED will flash to indicate that the module is not configured (at least
one telephone number should be programmed).
2.4 ENTER THE PROGRAM MODE
Directly after placing the batteries, the Mobeye ThermoGuard switches to the program
mode. First the GSM module establishes network connection. During this time the LED
flashes 2 sec. on/1 sec. off. Within 10-30 seconds the connection is established and the
status LED starts flashing 1 sec. on/1 sec. off (or ‘on’ in case the first telephone number
has been configured).
The Mobeye ThermoGuard returns to the program mode by pressing the on/off button
during 5 seconds, until the LED starts flashing (or turns to ‘on’).
As long as the unit is in the program mode, the status LED is on (or flashing 1 sec. on/1
sec. off if the module has no configuration). During the first 3 minutes, the GSM module
remains open, ready to receive SMS commands. After 3 minutes a time-out occurs and the
GSM module switches off in order to save the batteries. The unit returns to the low power
operational mode.

4
2.5 PROGRAM AT LEAST ONE TELEPHONE NUMBER
The Mobeye ThermoGuard is able to send messages up to 5 telephone numbers. The first
telephone number belongs to the administrator. Technical messages (like “battery low”) are
sent to the administrator only. Without the administrators’phone number, the Mobeye
ThermoGuard cannot not function.
When the ThermoGuard is in initial (factory) status and the batteries are placed (so the
LED is flashing), the administrators’number is programmed by calling the telephone
number of the Mobeye ThermoGuard using the administrators’ phone. The unit will
recognize this number and store it as administrator (telephone no. 1). The administrator will
receive a confirmation SMS text message including the security code. This code is needed
to program the other settings in the unit.
NB: for this way of programming the number recognition in the administrator’s phone must
be ‘on’. To program or change the administrators’ number by SMS command, please refer
to 4.4.1.
2.6 SET A MINIMUM AND/OR MAXIMUM TEMPERATURE LIMIT
A separate high and/or low limit for the temperature can be set. Both limits can be set
between -20 and +70 ºC. Negative values are entered by placing a “-” in front of the value.
Positive values start with a “+”. Each entered value shall contain 3 positions (except 0, use
“0”).
To enter a temperature limit, be sure the ThermoGuard is in program mode. Send an SMS
text message to the ThermoGuard with following content:
SMS command lower limit: 1111 LTL:xxx
SMS command upper limit: 1111 HTL:xxx
Be aware of the space after 1111; replace xxx by the temperature limit.
Example: text SMS message 1111 LTL:+02 for setting the lower limit to 2ºC.
2.7 SWITCHING ON/OFF
After the previous steps, the Mobeye ThermoGuard is ready for use.
It is armed (switched on) automatically. The green LED blinks once in 3 seconds.
In order to switch off (disarm) the Mobeye ThermoGuard:
- Press the on/ off button at the upper side for 1 second. The green LED switches off to
indicate the armed status.
In order to switch on (arm) the Mobeye ThermoGuard:
- Press the on/ off button at the upper side for 1 second. The green LED blinks once in 3
seconds (or permanently in case of an external power supply) to indicate the armed
status.

3. USE OF INPUTS AND EXTERNAL POWER SUPPLY
3.1 USING THE INPUT(S)
It is possible to connect external sensors to the inputs. As a standard reaction after a
triggered input, the Mobeye ThermoGuard sends an SMS text message to the preset
numbers and calls these numbers.
Insert the 2 wires of an external sensor through the hole of the enclosure to the inside part
and next in the two connectors of input 1. It does not matter which wire is connected to
which connector. If necessary the wires can be extended up to 5 meters using appropriate
wire material.
When using a second input, connect this to input 2.
As default the inputs are programmed as Normally Open (NO)
contacts. This means the inputs are triggered in case the input is
closed during at least 1 second. In case the contact should be
Normally Closed (NC), please refer to paragraph 4.4.7. In case a
sensor should be activated shorter or longer before evoking an
alarm, please refer to 4.4.8.
3.2 USING EXTERNAL POWER
Although the Mobeye ThermoGuard is designed to run on
batteries, it is possible to use an external power supply. In this
mode the module is always in connection with the GSM
network and therefore always in program mode. In case the
power fails, the batteries take over the functioning and the
administrator is informed by an SMS text message. The
module continues operating albeit in the low power mode. This
means the GSM module switches off and only establishes
network connection in case it needs to send out an alarm, test
message or battery low alert.
Connect the external power adapter (or any other regulated
12VDC power supply) to the power input of the connector:
- V+ (black lead with white stripe) to “+”
- Ground (black lead) to “-“

4. EXTENDED OPTIONS
To program the Mobeye ThermoGuard, the GSM module must have network connection. In
case only batteries are used, first switch the unit to the program mode. Next send SMS
commands for the configuration.
All settings are stored and will be kept in the unit, even in case the power supplies are
removed.
4.1 PROGRAM MODE
Directly after placing the batteries, the Mobeye ThermoGuard switches to the program
mode. First the GSM module establishes network connection. During this time the LED
flashes 2 sec. on/1 sec. off. Within 10-30 seconds the connection is established and the
status LED starts flashing 1 sec. on/1 sec. off (or ‘on’ in case the first telephone number
has been configured).
The Mobeye ThermoGuard returns to the program mode by pressing the on/off button
during 5 seconds, until the LED starts flashing (or turns to ‘on’).
As long as the unit is in the program mode, the status LED is on (or flashing 1 sec. on/1
sec. off in case the module has no configuration). During the first 3 minutes the GSM
module remains open, ready to receive SMS commands. After 3 minutes a time-out occurs
and the GSM module switches off in order to save the batteries. The unit returns to the low
power operational mode. In case the unit is connected to an external power supply, the
ThermoGuard has network connection all the time and the unit is in program mode all the
time.
The program mode is interrupted by pressing the on/off button during one second until the
LED switches off. The unit is switched off completely (disarmed).
4.2 THE SECURITY CODE
For configuration activities the security code of the Mobeye ThermoGuard must be used.
The initial security code is ‘1111’.
In this manual this code is referred to as <CODE>.
4.3 PROGRAMMING THE SETTINGS BY SMS
The settings are programmed by SMS text messages.
- Be sure the ThermoGuard is in program mode (please refer to 4.1).
- Send an SMS message with following content:
<CODE> <command>
- Do not forget the space character between <PIN code> and <command>.
- The commands are case sensitive.
- Several commands may be combined in one SMS message (with a maximum of 160
characters) by placing a # between the commands.
<CODE> <command1>#<command2> ...... #<commandN>
The green LED blinks 3 times to indicate the successful configuration. In case of an
incorrect command, the LED flashes 5 times.
In 4.5 the complete scheme with SMS commands is listed

4.4 POSSIBLE GENERAL SETTINGS
This paragraph describes the general settings for the ThermoGuard.
4.4.1 Phone numbers
The Mobeye ThermoGuard is able to send alarm messages up to 5 phone numbers. The
first telephone number (TEL1) belongs to the administrator. Only this number receives all
system messages. The other phone numbers (including the administrator) only get the
alarm messages.
To set or change telephone numbers:
SMS command 1st telephone number: <CODE> TEL1:<tel. number>
SMS command 2nd telephone number: <CODE> TEL2:<tel. number>
.... similar for TEL3...TEL5
To delete telephone numbers:
SMS command delete 1st telephone number: <CODE> DEL1
.... similar for DEL2...DEL5
In case a foreign number needs to be entered start with 00 follow by the country code (e.g.
0031612345678).
4.4.2 Set high and/or low temperature limit
A separate high and/or low limit for the temperature can be set. Both limits can be set
between -20 and +70 ºC. Negative values are entered by placing a “-” in front of the value.
Positive values start with a “+”. Each entered value shall contain 3 positions (except 0, use
“0”).
SMS command lower limit: 1111 LTL:<temperature>
SMS command upper limit: 1111 HTL:<temperature>
4.4.3 Identification text
It is possible to add a standard identification text (NAME) to all messages sent out by the
Mobeye ThermoGuard. The alarm messages are a combination of the name and the alarm
text.
A user defined identification has a length of maximum 20 characters. The default
identification text is ‘Mobeye’.
SMS command identification text: <CODE> NAME:<free text>
4.4.4 Alarm notification type: SMS or SMS + call
As default behaviour, after an activated input the Mobeye ThermoGuard notifies by SMS
text message followed by a telephone call (beep signal). The combination of SMS text and
the call increases the chance of getting the attention of the contact persons. It is possible to
disable the call (OFF), so that only an SMS message will be sent. The default alarm
notification type is ON (SMS + call).
SMS command alarm notification type: <CODE> CALL:xxx

4.4.5 Alarm text
Unique alarm texts can be programmed into the Mobeye ThermoGuard. User defined texts
have a maximum length of 20 characters.
Following default texts are programmed:
Temperature below min. temp. <TEXT1>: Temperature too low:
Temperature above max. temp.<TEXT2>: Temperature too high:
Temperature restored <TEXT3>: Temperature OK
Triggered input 1 <TEXT4>: Alarm 1
Triggered input 2 <TEXT5>: Alarm 2
SMS commands text 1: <CODE> TEXT1:<free text>
SMS commands text 2: <CODE> TEXT2:<free text>
.... similar for TEXT3...TEXT5
4.4.6 Temperature delay time
The temperature delay time defines the duration a temperature limit is violated before an
alarm is initiated. If the temperature returns to the non-alarm status within the delay time, no
alarm is sent. The time can be set between 0 and 999 minutes.
As default, the temperature delay time is set to 0 minutes.
SMS command temperature delay time: <CODE> DELAYTEMP:xxx
4.4.7 Input type
The input type defines the character of the inputs IN1 and IN2. This can be Normally Open
(NO) or Normally Closed (NC). In case an input is set to NO, the alarm will be triggered as
soon as the terminals of the input are closed. If the input is set to NC, the alarm is triggered
in case the connection between the input terminals is broken. The default input type is set
to NO.
SMS command input type input 1: <CODE> TYPEIN1:xx
SMS command input type input 2: <CODE> TYPEIN2:xx
4.4.8 Input delay time
The input delay time defines the time that the input are triggered before an alarm is
initiated. If the input returns to the non-alarm status within the delay time, no alarm is sent.
The time can be set between 0 and 999 seconds.
As default, the input delay time is set to 1 second.
SMS command alarm delay input 1: <CODE> DELAY1:xxx
SMS command alarm delay input 2: <CODE> DELAY2:xxx
4.4.9 Alarm repeat time
In order to emphasize the urgency of the alarm messages, all alarms can be repeated. As
long as the alarm status has not returned to the inactive status, the SMS alarm will be
repeated after the ‘alarm repeat time’. In the repeated temperature alarm message the
actual temperature is mentioned as well, to follow the temperature development. The time
can be set between 0 and 24 hours. As default the alarm repeat time is set to 1 hour.
SMS command alarm repeat time: <CODE> REPEAT:xx
