Seneca Z-GPRS3, Z-UMTS, Z-LOGGER3
PRELIMINARY INFORMATION
CAUTION!
Contact your telephone provider for information on GSM and GPRS service costs. It is best to
quantify log and SMS costs before setting up and installing Z-GPRS3, Z-UMTS OR Z-LOGGER3.
The use of Z-GPRS3 and Z-UMTS in data roaming (for example, abroad with an Italian SIM card)
may generate unexpected costs. Contact your telephone provider for further information.
IN NO CASE MAY SENECA OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE HELD LIABLE FOR ANY INCOMING DATA OR
PROFIT LOSSES DUE TO INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL CAUSES (INCLUDING
NEGLIGENCE) CONNECTED WITH THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE Z-GPRS3, Z-UMTS OR Z-
LOGGER3, EVEN IF SENECA WAS INFORMED OF THE POTENTIAL OF THESE DAMAGES.
SENECA, ITS SUBSIDIARIES OR AFFILIATES OR GROUP PARTNERS OR DISTRIBUTORS AND SENECA
DEALERS DO NOT GUARANTEE THAT THE FUNCTIONS FAITHFULLY MEET THE EXPECTATIONS AND
THAT Z-GPRS3, Z-UMTS, Z-LOGGER3, THEIR FIRMWARE AND SOFTWARE ARE FREE OF ERRORS
OR FUNCTION UNINTERRUPTEDLY.
SENECA HAS TAKEN THE UTMOST CARE AND CAUTION IN DRAFTING THIS MANUAL. HOWEVER,
IT MAY CONTAIN ERRORS OR OMISSIONS. SENECA SRL RESERVES THE RIGHT TO MODIFY
AND/OR VARY PARTS OF THIS MANUAL TO CORRECT ERRORS OR TO ADJUST TO PRODUCT
FEATURE CHANGES WITHOUT ANY PRIOR NOTICE.
CAUTION!
-Contact your telephone service provider for GSM and GPRS service costs especially when using
Z-GPRS3 and Z-UMTS with a sim issued by a country other than the one in which it is used
(international roaming).
-It is best to estimate telephone costs before setting up Z-GPRS3 and Z-UMTS.
-The cost of each SMS is set by the telephone service provider.
-Internet send/receive costs can be tied to Kbytes sent/received, a monthly ceiling included in a
package or internet connection time. Contact your telephone service provider for further
information.

USER MANUAL –Z-GPRS3, Z-UMTS, Z-LOGGER3

-For internet connections whose costs is associated with connection time, please remember that
communications are active for an amount of time that depends on the number of log rows to be
sent. Typically, a 2 Kbyte data log takes about 10-15 seconds (in GPRS mode) to be sent in
addition to the time necessary to establish the connection (from 5 to 30 seconds) and the time
due to any server login attempts.
-When use PPP the internet connection is ALWAYS ON
-Check the data quantity sent via internet and SMS before using Z-GPRS3 and Z-UMTS.
Please remember that mobile phone service providers also consider the entire communication
that permits file transmission (and thus data transmission overhead, the number of connection
attempts, etc.) and not just the dimensions as data traffic in each transaction.

SEAL is a graphical environment that allow you to configure the datalogger and to create simple
automation without knowing any programming language.
For more info refers to the SEAL help, SEAL is available for free download at address:
http://www.seneca.it/en/linee-di-prodotto/software/seal/
Others manuals, quickstart and examples on SEAL are availables on the SEAL RTUs sections on website.
6. SWITCH ON, AND SWITCH OFF THE RTU
RTUs are equipped with back-up batteries (internal UPS) to perform programmable actions in case
of blackout.
Switch ON:
1 ) Supply power to the RTU via screw terminal or via BUS IDC10
2) The Board will boot-up (led PWR will flash)
Switch OFF:
1) Unplug the Power supply (from terminal or from BUS IDC10 )
2 ) The board is powered by internal UPS
3) Press the button PS1 until the led PWR will flash fast.
4) Release the button, the board will power off.
7. SUPPORTED SIM CARDS (ONLY Z-GPRS3 / Z-UMTS)
Z-GPRS3 and Z-UTMS support the following types of SIM CARDS:
