1. INTRODUCTION
The Mobeye MS100E is an easy to install measure, control and alarm module that will
send alerts using the built-in GSM communication module. It has inputs for sensors and
signals. The Mobeye MS100E can also switch external devices that are connected (e.g.
by SMS text message). To use the Mobeye MS100E you will need a SIM-card. This can
be a prepaid or post-paid card.
The Mobeye MS100E has following features:
•In case one of the inputs is activated by a sensor, the Mobeye MS100E sends an
alarm SMS text message and calls the phone numbers as programmed. The SMS
message contains the text ‘Mobeye alarm 1’ or ‘Mobeye alarm 2’.
•As soon as the inputs leave the alarm status, an SMS text message is sent to the set
telephone numbers containing the text such as ‘Mobeye Input 1 OK’or ‘Mobeye
Input 2 OK’.
•If the sensor and/or the input remain in the alarm status, the Mobeye MS100E
repeats sending the SMS alarm message every four hours.
•The outputs can be switched by an incoming SMS command from an authorised
telephone number.
•If a rechargeable external battery is placed and a power failure occurs, the Mobeye
MS100E sends a ‘power failure’ SMS text message and calls the phone numbers as
programmed by the user. When the power is restored, the Mobeye MS100E sends a
‘power restored’ SMS text message to the numbers.

2. TO GET READY IN SEVEN STEPS
To get started with the Mobeye MS100E seven easy steps are needed.
1. Place the SIM card
2. Connect a sensor to the input
3. Connect the power supply
4. Connect the back-up battery (optionally)
5. Enter at least one phone number
6. Check the settings
2.1 PLACE THE SIM CARD
To use the Mobeye MS100E a SIM card from any network is needed.
On this SIM card, the PIN code security needs to be disabled or 0000. If
you have a SIM card with PIN code, you can disable or change this
using any mobile phone and change the PIN code security. Please
consult the manual for that mobile phone for the procedure.
The SIM card needs to be inserted before the power is connected.
When using a prepaid SIM card, take note of the available credit.
Additionally it is wise to set a recurrent test message so the card will be
used at least once a month.
•Open the back cover.
•Insert the SIM card in the holder. For opening/closing, move the
cover slightly.
2.2 CONNECT A SENSOR
Open the hole in the enclosure and 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 (press the orange pins for connecting the
wires). It does not matter which wire is connected to which connector. If
necessary the wires can be extended using appropriate wire material.
If the sensor should be closed in normal situation (and be opened in the
event of an alarm), the input type should be changed (please refer to
paragraph 5.10).
2.3 CONNECT THE POWER SUPPLY
The Mobeye MS100E is designed to run on an external power supply (9-32VDC). The
module will always be in connection with the GSM network. This gives following features:
possibility to receive power failure messages (using a back-up battery) and the possibility
to perform remote actions, such as arm/disarm, switch the outputs, ask status reports
and to program it via SMS-commands.
IN1

4
Connect the external power adapter (or any other regulated 9-32VDC
power supply) to the power input of the connector (press on the
orange pins for connecting the wires):
•V+ (black lead with white stripe) to “+”
•Ground (black lead) to “-“
If using the Mobeye mains adapter (Mobeye article 10027):
The black wire with the white line is “+”, the other black wire is “-“.
After inserting the SIM card and connecting the power, the Mobeye
MS100E will perform a self test taking 1 minute. During the test, the light is red.
If the light is flashing red, a problem with the SIM card is detected. A reason could be no
SIM card was placed, or the PIN code security of the SIM card was not disabled.
Using external power, the module is always in connection with the GSM network and
therefore in program mode.
2.4 CONNECT THE BACK-UP BATTERY
For back-up power, in the situation that the external power was
cut, a rechargeable Mobeye battery can be connected.
Attach the terminal of the battery to the white connector. The
battery can be fixed with tie wraps or Velcro.
If the power falls out, the unit will keep sits functions and a power
failure message can be sent. The GSM module remains open
and the sensor inputs remain active. The back-up battery is able
to power the module for at least 24 hours.
Close the Mobeye MS100E using the 4 screws.
2.5 PROGRAM THE PHONE NUMBERS
The Mobeye MS100E is able to send messages up to 5 telephone numbers. The first
telephone number (TEL1) belongs to the administrator. Technical messages (such as
battery low) are sent to the administrator only. Without the administrators’ phone
number, the MS100E cannot function.
When the MS100E is in initial (factory) status (so the LED is flashing green), the
administrators’ number is programmed by calling the telephone number of the Mobeye
MS100E using the administrators’ phone. The unit will recognize this number and store it
as administrator (TEL1). 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 4.2.
A confirmation melody is played. The Mobeye MS100E is ready to use.

2.6 CHECK THE SETTINGS
The settings can be sent to the programmed telephone number as SMS text message by
sending a request to the unit. In this way you also check the correct working of the SIM
card.
Upon sending the command, the Mobeye MS100E returns an SMS text message to the
originator of the request.
SMS command list settings: CODE SET?
Example (code 1111 is factory default): 1111 SET?
Within ca. 30 seconds the programmed phone number will receive the list with settings.
2.7 ALARM MESSAGE CONFIRMATION
When the sensor of the system is activated, it will send an alarm notification. First an
SMS text message is sent to all programmed alarm numbers; next a phone call is made
to the numbers. When you answer the phone, a beep tone is heard.
Confirm using “1”
It is possible to confirm the phone call by answering the phone and pressing “1“. The
other alarm numbers will not be called afterwards.
2.8 CONTROLLING THE OUTPUTS
The relay outputs can be switched in two ways:
1. Automatically after an alarm (see 6.1)
2. After an incoming call or SMS text message from an authorised telephone
number (or, in case this option was set, unauthorised) (see 5.14 and 5.15).
If an output pulse time was set, the relay outputs will switch back automatically.
If the pulse time was set to “0”, they shall be switched back manually (see
5.16).

3. SENSORS AND DEVICES
Several external sensors can be connected to the two inputs. The Mobeye MS100E can
also switch external devices connected to it via the outputs after receiving an SMS
command (or phone call).
The Mobeye MS100E has a 9-32V power input for connection to an external power
source.
Please find below the architecture of the main unit.
Inputs
External sensors can be connected to the inputs. Upon closing (or opening) an input, the
Mobeye MS100E will send an alarm message to the set alarm numbers (factory default:
SMS and call).
Outputs
The Mobeye MS100E has two outputs (O1 and O2).These relay outputs can switch
external devices. The maximum load is 2A/30V per output.
They can be switched after an alarm or by remote control (see 5.14).

4. CONFIGURATION METHOD
The settings in the Mobeye MS100E can be adjusted by SMS commands. All settings
are stored and will be kept in the unit, even in case the power supplies are removed.
4.1 PROGRAM MODE
As soon as the unit is powered and finished the start-up, the Mobeye MS100E in
program mode and ready to receive SMS commands.
4.2 HOW TO PROGRAM BY SMS
- Be sure the unit has external power and the GSM has network connection
- Send an SMS message with following content:
- The CODE stands for the installation code. Factory setting is “1111”.
- Do not forget the space between CODE and COMMAND.
- The complete scheme with SMS commands is listed chapter 7.
- 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.
A confirmation melody is played to indicate a correct command. In the event of an
incorrect command, a beep is heard.
Or: both commands in one message:
Example:
1111 TEL2:[phone]#CALLALARM:OFF
Example: To set the SMS to OFF (just call):
1111 CALLALARM:OFF
Example: To program a telephone number at memory position 2:
1111 TEL2:[phone]

5. CONFIGURATION POSSIBILITIES
This chapter describes the possible settings in the Mobeye MS100E.
5.1 INSTALLATION CODE
The installation code is the 4-digit code for switching on/off and programming the
settings or activating the special functions. Factory default is “1111”. It is possible to
change the code to any 4-digit number. Please change the code to make the unit more
secure.
5.2 TELEPHONE NUMBERS
Up to five telephone numbers can be programmed in to the Mobeye MS100E. In the
event of an alarm the Mobeye MS100E first sends an SMS text message to all numbers,
next they are called. It is possible to confirm the call, after which the other numbers will
not be called anymore.
Note: the first telephone number is required, the others are optional.
5.3 SMS ON/OFF
By default, the Mobeye MS100E sends alarm notifications via text message and calls to
the preset contact persons. By turning off the SMS, the unit will only call after the
sensors send an alarm.
5.4 CALL ON/OFF
By default, the Mobeye MS100E sends alarm notifications via text message and calls to
the preset contact persons. By turning off the CALL, the unit will only send an SMS text
message as alarm notification. It is not possible to switch off both the SMS and the call.
5.5 INTERVAL TEST MESSAGE
The Mobeye MS100E can send test messages. Through these ‘keep alive’ reports you
will be informed about the status of your Mobeye MS100E. You can set the interval
between the test reports. This is adjustable between 0 (no test reported) and 30 (every
30 days a test message). Note when MS100E is battery-operated: the interval of 1 day
will result in a daily test message; the exact time between the messages will be about 24
hours.
The smaller the interval between the test reports, the shorter is the battery life. The test
message only works if the system is on.
5.6 SET ACTUAL TIME AND DATE
If the system is to be armed automatically, the internal clock time needs to be correct.
Some Telecom providers offer this in the network, to be synchronised by the Mobeye
MS100E during the start-up and after sending test messages. It is possible to set the
time and date manually. To view the clock time, send a list of the settings to the first
programmed phone number (CODE SET?).
5.7 AUTOMATIC TIME-BASED ARM/DISARM
The MS100E can be armed and/or disarmed based on a daily time schedule. The first
telephone number needs to be set before the arming and/or disarming time can be set.

9
5.8 IDENTIFICATION TEXT
It is possible to add a standard identification text (NAME) to all messages sent out by the
Mobeye MS100E. 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’.
5.9 ALARM TEXT
Custom alarm texts can be programmed. These texts have a maximum length of 20
characters.
The following texts are programmed as factory default:
Power failure TEXT2: power failure
Power restored TEXT3: power restored
Triggered input 1 TEXT4: alarm 1
Triggered input 2 TEXT5: alarm 2
Restored input 1 TEXT6: Input 1 restored
Restored input 2 TEXT7: Input 2 restored
5.10 INPUT TYPE
The input type defines the character of the inputs IN1 and IN2. This can be Normally
Open (NO) or Normally Closed (NC). If 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 if the connection between the input terminals is broken.
The default input type is set to NO.
5.11 INPUT DELAY TIME
The input delay time defines the time that the inputs 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 delay time can be set between 0 and 999 seconds.
As default, the input delay time is set to 1 second.
5.12 INACTIVE TIME
The “inactive time” defines the time the movement sensor, input 1 or input 2 is not active
after an activation. If the time is set to “0” (minutes), the input is active again immediately
after returning to the non-alarm status. If the time is set to e.g. 30 minutes, the input
remains inactive for the first 30 minutes. If the input is again (or still) activated after these
30 minutes, a new alarm message is sent. The inactive time can be set between 0 and
60 minutes.
As default, the inactive time is set to “5” for all inputs.
5.13 POWER FAILURE DELAY TIME
The power failure delay time defines the time that the power fails before an alarm is
initiated. If the power is restored within the delay time, no alarm is sent. The delay time
can be set between 0 and 60 minutes. As default, the delay time is set to 1. Take care
that a back-up battery needs to be placed in order to receive a power failure alarm
message.

10
5.14 AUTHORISATIONS AND REMOTE CONTROL
By sending SMS commands remote control actions are possible, such as arming,
disarming and switching the outputs. As prerequisite for remote control the ‘controlling
telephone number’ needs to be authorised. A maximum of fifty numbers can be
authorised via SMS command. If it is not clear what memory positions are available, it is
possible to add a new number by the SMS command ‘ADDTELA’. The new number
takes the first free position.
To receive a list with the authorised numbers, please refer to 8.3.
SMS-commands for remote control (no code is necessary, numbers need to be
authorised):
Arm: ARM
Disarm: DISARM
Switch on output 1: O1ON
Switch off output 1: O1OFF
Switch on output 2: O2ON
Switch off output 2: O2OFF
5.15 UNAUTHORISED SWITCHING OF OUTPUTS
Although the Mobeye MS100E is designed to only switch the outputs by an incoming
SMS (or call, see chapter 6) from an authorized phone, there is also an option to let them
be switched by any incoming call/SMS, without being authorised. To disable the need for
authorised numbers, the 'authorization' option can be set to OFF. Default is ON.
5.16 DURATION OF OUTPUTS: SWITCH OR PULSE TIMES
If an output is used, the time this output is activated can be set between 1 and 9999
seconds. If the setting is set to 0, the output does not return to its previous state
automatically. An authorised number can switch it back by the SMS command O1OFF or
O2OFF. In the factory settings the duration of the pulse time for the outputs is “10”.
5.17 INITIAL STATE OUTPUT
In the factory settings the outputs are set to “open” (NO); they close after e.g. the SMS
command "O1ON". This initial state can be set to “closed” (NC).
5.18 RESET TO FACTORY SETTINGS
It is possible to reset the Mobeye MS100E to factory settings.
•Remove power adapter (and battery if present)
•Restore the power source and keep the reset button pressed for
about 15 seconds until a short melody sounds followed by 3
beeps.
•Release the button when the LED flashes
After several seconds a short confirmation tone is heard. The
installation code is also reset to 1111.

11
6. ACTION RULES
The alarm message and behaviour of the outputs of the Mobeye MS100E are
programmed by action-reaction patterns. These so-called Action Rules are pre-
programmed, according to the needs of many applications. However, it is possible to
change these action rules (for advanced users only!).
The trigger + related reactions are called an “action rule”. Each action rule may contain 3
reactions. A maximum of 15 action rules can be programmed.
6.1 PRE-PROGRAMMED ACTION RULES
In the factory defaults following action rules are pre-programmed:
