Pacific GSM PGM1-3G User manual

PGM1-3G
Micro 3G Communicator
Instructions: November 1, 2017, refers to the firmware version: 0.32EN
Pacific GSM company expanded its range of miniature
communication module for 3G version of popular GSM dialler
PGM1. PGM1-3G is available in a plastic enclosure with wiring for
quick installation. –PGM1-3G is designed to be built into other
devices to monitor status or control devices remotely or can be
used as standalone alarm with ARM/DISARM function.
Through PGM1-3G module can be remotely controlled
such as lighting, pumps, garage doors and gates or reboot servers.
May indicate a malfunction Alarms or loss of liquid in tanks,
emergency conditions, or simply using a suitable sensor to watch
object or temperature limits with thermostat function.
All easily through standard mobile phone.
PGM1-3G module is a fully pre-programmed, for most common
function (alarm report), you just call the unit SIM number from
phone which you want to contact if a PGM1-3G input connected to
GND, PGM1-3G will send you confirmation SMS with saved
number and that is all. If the PGM1-3G input will connect to a GND
the stored number will receive SMS "Alarm Activated". If you need change setting for different application or
customize name of the unit and input, please refer manual below.

New Zealand Pre Pay SIM Card Activation
1) It is recommended to only use new Nano SIM cards with no data stored. The PGM1-3G has been tested with Nano SIM cards
provided by Vodafone NZ, Spark NZ, 2Degrees NZ, Telstra AU, Optus AU, Vodafone AU, AT&T USA, T mobile USA
2) Place the new SIM card in an existing mobile phone.
3) Make a call to 777 Vodafone, *333 Spark or 200 2Degrees and follow the voice prompts to set up your PIN number to activate
the service and SIM, then it's ready to use.
4) We recommended register SIM online to manage SIM quick and easy any time. Registration process is quite quick. Click
on the Register for my account tab from the www.vodafone.co.nz, www.spark.co.nz or www.2degreesmobile.co.nz website
and to follow the prompts and fill in the required details. Wait to receive a validation TXT to complete the registration.
5) Insert the SIM card into the Communicator.

PGM1-3G Communicator Installation
The Communicator PGM1-3G series is user friendly and easy to set up.
1) Before connecting the power, connect the corresponding GSM antenna.
2) After connecting the power supply and SIM card, the module will go undergo a self-test cycle. While in this cycle, the Status
and Network Led’s continuously on. After unit successfully connects to the network the blue Network LED will flash and green
status led will be off. Now the unit is ready for programming.
3) Send TXT report command to the unit 1234 stat? If the command was correct, you will receive a TXT confirmation contain-
ing network signal strength. If the network signal is not sufficient (below 40%), the move unit to better network signal area or
use of an external boost aerial AN-05.
The Communicator PGM1-3G series is a fully pre-programmed from manufactory, just call the PGM1-3G SIM phone number
from phone which you want to receive in future report, the PGM1-3G will automatically save called number under position 1
(NUMBER1).
From this moment if the input connected to GND for more like 6 sec. the PGM1-3G module will send the pre-programmed SMS (Alarm:
Activated) to this number, you can easily add additional phone numbers (up to 6) via simple SMS command. Output can be operated via
default commands 1234 OUTPUT ON or 1234 OUTPUT OFF
Newer remove SIM card or aerial when power is connected!

SMS commands
Principles for using SMS commands:
The PGM1-3G Communicator can be programmed via TXT message from any mobile phone from any network. All commands and
setting must always start with a four digit security PIN, pre-set by the manufacturer to 1234. The PIN is followed by a space and the
appropriate TXT command. It is necessary to adhere to correct spacing (PIN –space –command –space –indication)
-PIN space command space indication -
Examples: 1234 arm or 1234 ARM (arming the unit)
All commands are confirmed and acknowledged by the 3G Communicator with a reply TXT confirmation. Even if the command was
incorrect the unit will send an error message.
•SMS commands are not case sensitive. Eg. command to determine the status, you can send STAT? / stat? / STat?
STAT?
Determines the current status of the communicator (Network operator, signal strength, temperature)
NPIN
Changes the password for. Example.1234 NPIN 1111 changes the original password to1111.
DEVNAME
To program a device name
INNAME
To program a name of input

exceeding the upper limit is possible if the temperature drops below 29 ° C and lower limits when it goes above
19 ° C (set hysteresis).
* The temperature can be monitored in the range of -20 to +99.9 ° C.
Reset a forgotten password:
If you forget the password for SMS, you can reset default password (the default password is 1234) as follows:
- Send SMS to the SIM number in PGM1-3G, which contains only IMEI number. ( IMEI number can be located on 3G module)
- No password or command only IMEI number.
- Wait until the PGM1-3G blue LED will flash quickly (SMS was received)
- Disconnect power from PGM1-3G within 20 seconds.
- PGM1-3G password is restored to 1234
- If the power not disconnect within 20 seconds after PGM1-3G receive an SMS with the IMEI number, password will not be restored.
Guidelines for Safe and efficient use:
Please read this information before using your PGM1-3G Communicator. These instructions are intended for your safety. Please follow
these guidelines. If the product has been subject to any of the conditions listed below or you have any doubt as to its proper function,
make sure you have the product checked by a certified service partner before using it. Failure to do so might entail a risk of product
malfunction or even a potential hazard to your health or property.
Recommendations for Safe use of product:
•Always treat your product with care and keep it in a clean and dust-free place.
•Do not expose your product to liquid or moisture or humidity.
•Do not expose your product to extreme high or low temperatures.
•Do not drop, throw or try to bend your product.
•Do not attempt to disassemble or modify your product. Only authorised personnel should perform service.
•Do not use your product in an area where a potentially explosive atmosphere exists.
Antenna:
The PGM1-3G Communicator has an antenna. Use of antenna devices not marketed by Pacific GSM Limited specifically for this model
could damage your PGM1-3G Communicator, reduce performance, and produce SAR levels above the established limits (see below).
Radio Frequency (RF) Exposure and Specific Absorption Rate (SAR):
The PGM1-3G Communicator is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is turned on, it emits low levels of radio frequency
energy (also known as radio waves or radio frequency fields).
Governments around the world have adopted comprehensive international safety guidelines, developed by scientific organizations,
through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. These guidelines establish permitted levels of radio wave exposure for the
general population. The levels include a safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health, and to
account for any variations in measurements. Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of measurement for the amount of radio fre-
quency energy absorbed by the body. The SAR value is determined at the highest certified power level in laboratory conditions, but the
actual SAR level of the 3G Communicator while it is operating can be well below this value. This is because the 3G Communicator is
designed to use the minimum power required to reach the network. Variations in SAR below the radio frequency exposure guidelines do
not mean that there are variations in safety. While there may be differences in SAR levels among 3G Communicators, all Pacific GSM
communicator models are designed to meet radio frequency exposure guidelines.
