1. Introduction
Congratulations –you just bought the best. The OmniSite system provides two-way
communications using our patented WINGS™ (Wireless Information Network Gateway Standard)
over a cellular network. The low cost of the OmniSite method makes remote monitoring very
affordable, and allows our devices to operate on GSM networks worldwide. OmniSite takes pride
in having the most complete coverage and the best reputation in the industry.
1.1 Overview
OmniSite wireless monitoring devices provide a low cost wireless
system for remote monitoring, measurement, and data collection
anywhere, wherever there is GSM service, worldwide. OmniSite
relies on a combination of cellular telephone and web-based
technology.
The OmniSite SmarteLight is a combination remote monitoring
device and visual alarm beacon that utilizes the cellular network to
transmit to a central server. The SmarteLight is installed at your
equipment and sends a wireless signal to the local cellular tower.
That signal is bounced to OmniSite’s web interface, where customers
can log on - any day, any time, from any computer - and see how the
equipment is operating. The SmarteLight contains a halogen light
bulb that emits a very bright light that serves as a visual alarm
notification.
A “call out” list is setup online so when an alarm is triggered at your
equipment the operators identified in the “callout” list are notified
immediately. These notifications may be sent as text messages,
emails, or phone calls to either cell or hard-wired phones.
The SmarteLight must be installed in an area that has GSM coverage.
Installers should verify the coverage prior to installation. Once
activated, the unit automatically connects to the nearest cell tower.
Whenever the alarm input changes state, the SmarteLight will
transmit this information to the tower, the information is then sent
through a gateway to the internet and finally on to OmniSite’s
servers. The servers update the SmarteLight’s status on the
GuardDog website.

6. Power Management
6.1 Primary Power Loss
If primary power is lost, the system transmits an alarm indicating a primary power loss condition.
While primary power is lost, the system will run on the backup battery until all alarms are
transmitted or a maximum of 2 minutes even if the alarms were not successfully transmitted
during the maximum time period. (This behavior assumes that a backup battery is present and has
sufficient voltage to keep the system up.)
If the primary power is restored before the system shuts down, it transmits an alarm indicating a
primary power normal condition. If primary power is restored after the system has shut down, it
transmits a normal heartbeat call that will indicate a primary power normal condition.
6.2 Backup Battery Monitoring
The SmarteLight utilizes a non-rechargeable lithium battery (OmniSite P/N: SL-BAT-9V-A1). When
the backup battery voltage drops to 6.0, a low battery alarm condition is transmitted. When the
backup battery voltage drops to 5.0, the system switches off the battery so the module can no
longer run on the battery. If this the system has switched off the battery with no primary power
present, the system will power off.
7. Disabling the Module
The module can be disabled by connecting the “Disable” wires together. Once they are connected
and after a 5 second delay, the system will be disabled. When the system is disabled, it will send a
disable notification. While disabled, the unit will not transmit any input state change alarms nor
any battery or power alarms. The system can be enabled by disconnecting the “Disable” wires. Use
this feature to prevent false alarms during field maintenance.
Preliminary Version

SmarteLight v1.0 Manual
Revision: 1.1 Page 11 of 17 OmniSite
If primary power is lost while the system is disabled, the system will not run on the backup
battery. This feature is to allow for service of the module without unnecessarily draining the
backup battery.
8. Input Alarms
Input state change alarms are transmitted when voltage is detected and removed from the “Alarm
Signal” wires. There is 5 second alarm delay before an alarm is transmitted. Although the
SmarteLight has only one alarm channel, several field alarms can be wired in series or parallel to
supply a “general” alarm.
9. Output Relay
The output relay is controlled by issuing “Output 1” commands from the GuardDog website. This
output can be used to remotely turn on/off equipment, reset an alarm, or silence a horn. The state
of the relay output is preserved between power cycles.

10. GuardDog Setup
10.1 Callout List
The first step is to set up your Callout List. Login to your GuardDog account and proceed to
Setup>Callout List.
Here, you set up your recipient library and your general callout lists.
*For more information on how to setup your callout lists, please use the Help Pages found on
GuardDog.
10.1.1 Recipient Library
There are three different types of recipients that can be used for notifications:
Phone
These recipients will be called by our system and any active notifications will be read to them by
an automated system. During the call the recipient will be given the option to acknowledge the
notification and stop the callouts. This is done by pressing the "star" (*) key. The only thing
required for these recipient types is a phone number.
You can enter this phone number in any format as long as the area code and phone number are
listed. For example you could enter the phone number as [phone] or 317-885-6330 or even
3178856330. You can use any combination of dashes, parenthesis and spaces to enter the number
however you're comfortable.
Email
These recipients will receive an email for each active notification. Any valid email will work. If you
are using Email recipients we recommend placing these at the top of your callout list with a delay
of 0 minutes to make sure you receive your emails before a phone recipient acknowledges the
notification.
SMS (Text Message)
These recipients will receive a Text Message for each active notification. To setup an SMS recipient
just type in the phone number and choose the carrier for the number using the carrier dropdown.
Preliminary Version

SmarteLight v1.0 Manual
Revision: 1.1 Page 13 of 17 OmniSite
If your carrier isn't listed you can contact them directly, most carriers provide an email that can be
used to message your phone. Just use the provided email as an email recipient. If you would like
your carrier added to our dropdown, contact technical support with the email information from
your carrier.
Note - There is no option to acknowledge notifications from SMS messages - this will need to be
done from the Notfications page or through the toll free number (1-888-947-1212) using your
voicepin (Both phone and email notifications provide a way to acknowledge the alert).
**Note - Unfortunately, our system is unable to call voice pagers. Most pagers can be contacted
through email or text messaging and we encourage you to use these recipient types for your pager.
Pagers that don't provide this type of functionality can usually be upgraded for free or very
cheaply. Contact your carrier or pager provider to find out more.
To add a recipient, click the “Add Recipient” button at the top of the Recipient Library.
If you already have added recipients and you would like to add additional contact methods for a
specific contact, you can click the next to their name in the library.
You will need to provide the following information:
Name
This is the name of your recipient and will determine how the recipients are grouped in the library.
It’s best to put first and last names here.
Type
This specifies how this recipient will be contacted (Phone, Email, or SMS)
Label
This helps distinguish between your recipients and allows you to specify what kind of phone,
email, or SMS it is. (If it is an office phone, you’ll put “Office” there. If it is a work cell then put
“Work Cell”, “Home or Personal Cell”, “Home Email”, “Work Email”, etc.)
Number/Address
For Phone or SMS types put the phone number of the recipient. For email types put the email
address.
Carrier
This column is ONLY used for SMS types (It will be grayed out for all other types). You will need to
specify your phone/texting device’s cellular carrier. If your carrier isn't listed you can contact them
directly, most carriers provide an email that can be used to message your phone. Just use the
provided email as an email recipient. If you would like your carrier added to our dropdown,
