Overview
Ontech GSM 9040 is a removable unit that controls, alarms and monitors via the GSM mobile
network. The unit is powered by 230 V and starts up automatically when it is plugged into a 230 V
socket. The unit is also equipped with an internal backup battery. All communication with the unit is
handled with SMS. In the Android app the SMS is sending and receiving in the background.
The unit has a 230 V outlet that can be turned on and turned off remotely. When it is turned
on it can be set to automatically be switched off after a set time between 1 second and 99
hours. It can also be set to switch on when an alarm sensor is activated, the Auto Relay
function. A special function, the Garage Opener switch on the 230V for one second if the
incoming call matches a mobile number that is pre-set to the user list in the Garage Opener
function.
The unit has two wired alarm inputs. They can be set to opening (Normally Closed, NC) or
closing (Normally Open, NO) function. All types of alarm sensors with either closing or
opening function can be connected to the unit. For example fire alarms, PIR, magnet
switches, level guards etc. The unit sends an SMS to all mobile numbers on the Alarm list. Up
to 9 different mobile numbers can be programmed in the Alarm list.
The unit has a built-in temperature sensor that has an accuracy of +/- 2 degrees C when the
230 V outlet switch is turned off. At request the temperature is reported. If a radiator is
connected to the outlet 230 V the unit can be used to regulate the temperature in the room
with the Thermostat function.
The unit can be set to alarm if the temperature is rising above or drop below a preset
temperature value. This temperature alarm can also be combined with the Auto Relay
function so the 230 V outlet switches on if there is a temperature alarm.
The unit is equipped with a backup battery. The purpose of this is to send an alarm if the
main power fails. This alarm can be set with a delay of up to 40 minutes. If the main power is
restored within the set delay, there will be no alarm sent. When the main power returns
after an alarm a message about this will be sent from the unit.
The unit can be updated to the latest firmware by downloading it from www.ontechgsm.com
and connect the unit with your computer with the cable attached.

Start up the unit the first time
SIM-card
The unit needs a SIM-card that works in the GSM (2G) mobile network.
The size is a mini-SIM card. This card is approximately 25*15 mm. Also the size called micro-SIM can
be used if a mini-SIM adapter is used.
It is important that the pin code function is disabled on the SIM-card. A pin code is often activated by
the network operator. Deactivate the pin code in a mobile telephone. Se the manual for the
telephone.
Some prepaid SIM cards has a voice message that is played the first time the SIM-card is used. This
message is blocking all the SMS function in Ontech GSM 9040 and must be removed. Put the SIM—
card in a mobile phone and make a voice call that is answered and the voice message is removed.
Prepaid SIM-cards can be used. Have in mind that it is only valid for a certain period of time if it is not
used and not refilled. It can also use up all money and then the Ontech GSM 9040 cannot send any
message or alarm. We strongly recommend that you register the prepaid SIM-card at the network
operator´s web site so you can handle the card via Internet.

settings. All this takes about one minute. An SMS is sent to the telephone to confirm that the
settings has been stored (Settings successfully updated).
Important! If you want to change a number in the alarm list you must also write in all the other
numbers in the Alarm list. The unit will only store the information in the last Alarm list sent.
Activate and deactivate the alarm function
When the unit starts up by connecting it to a wall socket the alarm function is not activated by
default. To activate the alarm function you must send a command to the unit, see Control the unit on
page 16. To deactivate the alarm function you must also send a command.
The power fail alarm is by default activated. If you want to deactivate it, use the command Powerfail,
see Functions on page 12.
Acknowledge alarms
When an alarm has been sent after an alarm sensor has been activated you must acknowledge the
alarm before the unit will send another alarm message. No alarm sensor shall be active when the
alarm is acknowledged. See how to do this under Control the unit on page 16. You can also
acknowledge the alarm by pushing the button on the unit.
Temperature alarms cannot be acknowledged. The unit automatically reset the alarm when
temperature reach the set temperature plus or minus one degree.
Powerfail alarms cannot be acknowledged.
Wired alarm sensors
Different types of wired alarm sensors can be connected to Ontech GSM 9035. The unit has two
alarm inputs. Default setting is Normally Open (NO). If the alarm sensors you connect are of the type
Normally Closed (NC), you have to set this, see Functions on page 12.
Alarm cable
An alarm cable are delivered together with the unit. It is connected in the Modular 4/4 connector
marked Alarm. Use the alarm cable to connect alarm sensors.
The four wires in the cable:
Plus 3,8 V –Yellow
Alarm input B –Green
Alarm input A –Red
Minus/ground –Black
Important! The 3.8 V output is only for the alarm circuit and cannot be used to power an alarm
sensor.
Connecting wired alarm sensors
The pictures shows how the alarm sensors shall be connected. The plus wire is connected to one
output of the alarm sensor relay and A or B are connected to the other output.

Figure 2 Two alarm sensors Normally Open Figure 3 Two alarm sensors Normally Closed
Important! If the unit is set to Normally Closed function and only one alarm input is used, the other
must be connected with a wire to the 3.8 V wire. If this is not done, the unit will interpret this as the
circuit is open and thus send an alarm message.
Delay of wired alarms
You can set an alarm to send the alarm after a pre-set time. This is practical if you have an alarm
sensor on your outdoor and have to open it before you can turn of the alarm, see Set functions on
page 14.
Alarm from a wired alarm sensor
When an alarm sensor is activated an SMS will be sent to all numbers on the Alarm list. Android
telephones with the app installed will also receive a graphic presentation in the app.
Alarm SMS
An alarm SMS contains information about the alarm.
The example in the table below says that both of the alarm inputs A and B has been activated in the
main unit (ID no 1) and that the alarm sensor connected to the B input still is activated.
NB. There will be more information in the SMS.
