This manual describes how the GSM-X and GSM-X-ETH modules should be installed. For
further information related to the modules, including their configuration and operation, please
refer to the full version of manual, available at www.satel.eu
1. GSM-X module installation
Disconnect power before making any electrical connections.
It is not advisable to power up the module if the antenna is not connected.
The installation to which the module is to be connected should be provided
with:
2-pole disconnector,
short-circuit protection with a 16 A time delay circuit breaker.
The GSM-X module should be installed indoors, in spaces with normal air humidity. When
selecting the mounting location, remember that thick masonry walls, metal partitions, etc. will
reduce the range of radio signal. It is not advisable to install the module in close vicinity to
electrical installations, because this can result in malfunctioning of the device.
1.1 Preparing the cabling
Run the cables to be used for connecting the module with other devices to the module
installation place. Do not lay the cables in immediate vicinity of the low-voltage electrical
network wires, especially those used for supplying the high-power equipment (such as
electric motors).
It is recommended that unshielded non-twisted cable to be used.
1.2 Installation of enclosure
The GSM-X module is sold complete with the OPU-2B enclosure.
Fig. 1. Opening the OPU-2B enclosure.

2 GSM-X SATEL
The module can also be installed in SATEL’s OPU-4 P enclosure. It is recommended
that you use this enclosure, if you are planning to install the GSM-X-ETH Ethernet
module on the electronics board or the module is to be supplied from a power supply
unit connected to the APS connector (e.g. APS-412). If the module is installed in the
OPU-4 P enclosure, skip the description below and follow instructions contained in the
enclosure manual.
1. Loosen the screws locking the enclosure cover and remove the cover (Fig. 1).
2. Put the enclosure against the wall and mark the position of mounting holes.
3. Drill holes for wall plugs (screw anchors) in the wall.
4. Make an opening or openings in the enclosure base for lead-in cables.
5. Run the cables into the enclosure.
6. Using wall plugs (screw anchors) and screws, fasten the enclosure base to the wall.
Select wall plugs and screws specifically intended for the mounting surface (different for
concrete or brick wall, different for plaster wall, etc.).

Description of terminals
IN1…IN4 – inputs.
COM – common ground.
OC1...OC4 – OC type outputs (shorted to common ground when in active state).
AUX – +12 V DC power output.
+12V – power input (12 V DC ±15%).
– protective terminal of telephone communicator (to be connected only to the PE
protective earth circuit of 230 V AC mains).
R-1, T-1 – analog telephone line output (for connecting a telephone or a device fitted with
telephone communicator, e.g. control panel).

4 GSM-X SATEL
RING, TIP – analog telephone line input (from telephone provider).
1.2.3 Antenna
The GSM-X module is delivered with an antenna installed inside the enclosure. The antenna
can be replaced with an external antenna mounted on the enclosure or at some distance
from it. If this is the case, you will need the IPX-SMA adapter.
Using the antenna mounted at some distance from the enclosure is recommended wherever
thick masonry walls, metal partitions etc. may decrease the range of radio signal at the
module installation place.
The antenna must not be installed in parallel to low-voltage electrical wires, or it can affect
performance of the antenna.
1.3 Connecting the analog telephone line
The module works only with the analog telephone line.
Do not connect any other telephone device between the module and the
incoming telephone line.
Let the user know how the module is connected to the telephone network.
Connect the incoming telephone line to terminals TIP and RING (Fig. 4). Any telephone
devices located in the premises (telephone, fax, etc.) can be connected to terminals T-1 and
R-1.
If the ADSL service is used on the premises where the module is installed, the module should
be connected after the ADSL filter, and the other devices using the analog telephone line
should be connected to the module (Fig. 5).
To protect the telephone communicator against over-voltage, connect the terminal to the
protective earth conductor (PE) of the 230 V AC mains. To make the connection, use
a conductor with ≥0,75 mm
2
cross-section. Never connect the terminal to the neutral
conductor (N).
Fig. 4. An example of module connection to analog telephone line (telephone connected to
the module).

module).
1.4 Connecting the devices to the inputs and outputs
1. Connect the devices whose operation is to be monitored by the module to the input
terminals.
2. Connect the devices which are to be controlled by the module to the terminals of OC type
outputs.
The sum of currents drawn by devices powered from the AUX output must not exceed
300 mA.
1.5 Connecting the RS-232 port
If the module is to work in conjunction with the INTEGRA / INTEGRA Plus control panel,
connect together the RS-232 ports on module and control panel. To connect the module
PIN5 connector to the control panel RJ connector, use the RJ/PIN5 cable offered by SATEL.
Fig. 6. Connecting the RS-232 ports on module and computer. Shown on the left is PIN-5
plug. Shown on the right is DB-9 female connector (solder side view).

6 GSM-X SATEL
If the module is to work in conjunction with the STAM-2 monitoring station, connect the
module RS-232 port to the port of computer on which the cards are installed. If the computer
has a RS-232 port, make a connection according to Fig. 6. If the computer has a USB port,
use the USB-RS converter available from SATEL.
1.6 Connecting the power supply and starting the module
The module may be powered from the control panel, from an expander with power supply, or
from a power supply unit. SATEL offers power supplies (e.g. APS-412), which can be
connected to the APS connector on the electronics board.
When the supply voltage drops below 9.8 V, restart of the module occurs.
The required output current of power supply is at least 500 mA (provided that no
device is powered from the module AUX output).
1. Depending on the selected method of module powering, connect the power supply unit to
the APS connector or connect the power leads to the +12V and COM terminals (use
flexible conductors with a cross-section of 0.5-0.75 mm
2
, or rigid conductors with a cross-
section of 1-2.5 mm
2
).
Never connect power supply to APS connector and terminals at the same time.
2. Power up the module. The module will start up.
1.7 Connecting the computer to the module
Connect the computer to the module USB MINI-B connector. Having connected the computer
to the module, you can:
configure the module by using the GX Soft program. You can download the GX Soft
program from the www.satel.eu website. It can be installed on computers with WINDOWS
VISTA/7/8/10 operating system. See full manual for more information.
update the module firmware (see full manual of the module).
1.8 Installing the SIM cards
You can install up to two nano-SIM cards in the module.
1. If PIN code(s) is / are required by the SIM card(s), use the GX Soft program to program
the code(s).
2. Power down the module.
3. Insert the SIM card / cards into the socket / sockets (Fig. 7).
Fig. 7. Installing the nano-SIM card.
4. Power up the module. Logging the telephone into the GSM network may take a few
minutes.
If the module is to send data in GPRS technology, it is recommended that you use SIM
cards with a dedicated tariff plan for M2M (machine-to-machine) communication.
If the programmed PIN code is invalid, the module will report a trouble. Programming
a correct PIN code will clear the trouble.

SATEL GSM-X 7
Restarting the module with a wrongly programmed PIN code three times will block the
SIM card. To unblock the SIM card, remove it and insert into a mobile phone. Then,
enter the PUK code.
2. GSM-X-ETH module installation
The GSM-X-ETH Ethernet module enables the GSM-X module to be expanded by adding the
Ethernet link.
The device is designed to be used only in the local area networks (LAN). It must
not be connected directly to the public computer network (MAN, WAN). For
establishing connection with public networks, use a router or xDSL modem.
1. Use the GX Soft program to configure settings of the GSM-X-ETH Ethernet module (see
full manual of the GSM-X module).
2. Power down the GSM-X module.
3. Install the GSM-X-ETH Ethernet module in the connectors on the GSM-X module
electronics board (Fig. 8).
Fig. 8. Installing the GSM-X-ETH module on GSM-X module electronics board.
4. Connect the Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 connector on GSM-X-ETH module. Use a
100Base-TX standard compliant cable, identical to that used for connecting computers to
the network.
5. Power up the GSM-X module.
