LOAD 10 program installed, connected to
the module RS-232 port;
remotely: computer with the D LOAD 10 program installed, connecting by means of
GPRS.
Display providing information on the module status and facilitating programming by means
of buttons.
RS-232 port to allow:
local programming by means of computer with the D LOAD 10 program installed;
connection to the alarm control panel or computer as an external modem;
integration with the INTEGRA control panel;
working in conjunction with the STAM-1 / STAM-2 monitoring station;
updating the module firmware.
Capability of remotely updating the module firmware by means of GPRS (modules
with built-in GSM u-blox LEON-G100 telephone).
Powered with 12 V DC (±15%).
3. Typical module applications
The extended functionality of GSM module enables it to be used for a variety of applications.
This section presents typical examples of its application. Some of them are capable of being
combined with one other.
3.1 Backup communication path
Fig. 1. The module working as a backup communication path.
When connected to the telephone line output (T-1 and R-1 terminals, and in the GSM-4 –
also a suitable socket), the devices are capable of making telephone calls via analog
telephone line or GSM network. You can select which communication path will be the primary
one. If the primary communication path is malfunctioning, the module can automatically
switch over to the backup one.

SATEL GSM-4/GSM-5 5
3.2 Supervision / control of devices
Fig. 2. Module supervising operation of the devices connected to inputs and controlling
operation of the devices connected to outputs.
The change of status of the input to which the supervised device is connected may result in:
sending event code to the monitoring station (GPRS / CSD / SMS reporting);
notification (messaging) about the event by means of voice, SMS or CLIP message.
The inputs can be bypassed locally (by means of buttons, one of the module inputs or the
keypad of telephone connected to the telephone line output) or remotely (by means of SMS
messages or telephone keypad (DTMF)).
The devices connected to the module outputs can be controlled locally (by means of buttons,
module inputs or the keypad of telephone connected to the telephone line output) or remotely
(by means of SMS messages, telephone keypad (DTMF) or CLIP).
3.3 Simulation of monitoring station
Fig. 3. Module simulating the monitoring station.
The module can forward the event codes received from the control panel to the monitoring
station by means of GSM network. Which reporting link will be used to send the event code

and when the module will acknowledge receipt of the code to the control panel depends on
the module configuration.
3.4 Integration with INTEGRA control panels
Fig. 4. Module working in conjunction with the INTEGRA control panel.
When connected to the INTEGRA control panel, the module offers the following benefits:
GSM network as the primary or backup communication path;
transmission of event codes to the monitoring station via GSM network;
messaging via GSM network, including SMS messaging (for the INTEGRA Plus
control panels, an additional feature is available: messaging by means of SMS
messages, whose content corresponds to the description in event log and thus the
installer does need to define it);
remote programming of the control panel from a computer with D
LOAD X program
installed (with a fast data transfer due to GPRS);
remote management of the alarm system from a computer with G UARD X program
installed (with a fast data transfer due to GPRS).
The module can control connection with the INTEGRA control panel.
If communication with the GSM module is to be effected through the RS-232 port, the
local programming function in the INTEGRA control panel must be disabled.
3.5 Working in conjunction with STAM-1 / STAM-2 monitoring station
When connected to the STAM-1 / STAM-2 monitoring station, the module makes it possible
to receive event codes sent in the form of SMS or CLIP message. If used in conjunction with
the STAM-2 monitoring station, the module also enables the monitoring station to receive
CSD data transmissions containing the event codes and to send SMS messages.

3.6 Working in conjunction with PBX stations
The module can work in conjunction with the Private Branch Exchanges (PBX) as an
additional external telephone line. It can be used to make outgoing calls to the mobile phone
numbers and thus optimize the costs incurred.
4. Description of the module
4.1 Description of the electronics board
Description of the terminals:
OT1...OT4 – OC type outputs (shorted to ground when active):
OT1 -controlling output.
OT2 - controlling or monitoring trouble signaling output (see: "OT2 -
mon.trbl." p. 29).
OT3 - controlling or telephone line trouble signaling output (see: "OT3 -
t.l.trbl." p. 29).
OT4 - telephone line trouble and/or GSM network login problem signaling
output (see: „OT4 - only GSM" p. 29).
+V – power supply output (12 V DC ±15%).
IN1–IN4 – the module’s inputs.
-V – common ground (dedicated to external devices supplied from +V output).
The -V and GND are dedicated terminals for different applications and must not be
electrically connected.
+12V – power supply input (12 V DC ±15%).
GND – common ground.
– protective terminal of telephone communicator (connect only to the PE
protective circuit of 230 V AC mains).
T-1, R-1 – telephone line output (connection for alarm control panel, telephone set or
another device provided with telephone dialer).
When making a telephone call, the module changes the DC voltage polarization on
telephone line output (T-1 and R-1 terminals), thus enabling individual charging of the
phone calls.
TIP, RING – telephone line input (analog PSTN line).

technology.
