Warnings
Ropam Elektronik devices are part of a full alarm system, whose working effectiveness depends on
the quality and technical condition of all devices (detectors, signaling devices), cabling, etc. included
in the system. The user is obliged to periodically test the operation of the alarm system. It is
necessary to check whether the control panel reacts to the violation of individual detectors (PIR, reed
switches, etc.) or signaling devices (external and internal) and notifications. The detailed method of
system control is determined by the installer that the system has designed. Periodic system
maintenance is recommended (with device status check, back-up power supply, system operation,
messaging, etc.).
Ropam Elektronik is not responsible for the correct operation of operators and GSM network
infrastructure used for alarm and remote control messages. It is advisable to use a GSM operator that
guarantees min. Two BTSs of the given system location with GSM communication. In addition, we
recommend using such services and subscriptions available on the market that guarantee correct
operation (human factor minimization, eg blocked outgoing calls due to lack of funds in the account,
allow for full configuration of the GSM track (for example, disable advertising services).
We do not recommend using national roaming operators!
In addition, it should be noted that the services guaranteed by GSM operators are voice services
(VOICE) rather than SMS, so important information should be transmitted via voice calls and the exact
identification of the event takes place in the SMS (eg VOICE + SMS, CLIP + SMS).
For service like e-mail transmission it is recommended to create a independent e-mail account (eg.
Alarm@domena.pl) in a proven provider e-mail accounts. Sharing of data to an SMTP server from a
private account can result in unauthorized access to these accounts.

- for controlling the GSM thermostat, it is necessary to start the function of temperature measurement
and thermostat.
To control the DTMF phone, the smartphone must be able to generate DTMF tones during a phone
