CHAPTER 1111111
1. Overview of the Serial GSM Gateway
Smartsavy‘s Serial GSM Gateway‘s are a family of rack mountable devices that provide for local and remote
serial device access, and building management in a single appliance.
The Serial GSM Gateway family creates a 1 to 4 serial switch which can support up to four serial devices
such as routers, switches, PABX‘s, radio‘s etc. All external serial devices are then accessible via four different
console access methods. The access methods are Local Serial connection, Local USB connection, Remote
GPRS connection and Remote LAN connection (Pro Model Only) and each method displays an easy to use
software menu. A good analogy would be a KVM device, except in this case only serial data is switched. The
Serial GSM Gateway is unique in that it extends the serial console port to the end user over four different
communication mediums, which are: Local Serial Port, and Local USB Port using a terminal or a PC with
terminal emulation software, Remote Internet over GPRS Port, and Remote LAN Port (PRO version only) using
a PC or Smartphone with telnet virtual terminal connection software.
Smartsavy‘s Serial GSM Gateway family also creates a building management and telemetry solution. Built-in
General Purpose Input and Output (GPIO‘s) ports are provided, to connect external devices to the Serial
GSM Gateway, these sense and react to the outside environment. Connection of external devices such as
movement sensors, sirens, generators, lights, door locks, flood sensors etc... Provide for building automation
and management with comprehensive alerting and management available on the local and remote consoles
as well as SMS.
Location awareness is available via GPS technology. Site location co-ordinates can be requested via a simple
SMS message to the Serial GSM Gateway and a response SMS with GPS navigator compatible co-ordinates.
This feature is especially helpful to large organizations with many remote sites.
This chapter contains the following sections:

Serial GSM Gateway Features and User Configurable Settings
Note The Serial GSM Gateway family is available as either a Standard or a Professional model. Serial GSM
Gateway model names with a STD suffix are standard Serial GSM Gateway‘s. Serial GSM Gateway‘s
with a PRO suffix are Professional Serial GSM Gateway‘s. In this document, model names will only be
used when a feature is only available on the respective model referenced. If the model name is not
used, both models, STD and PRO, are to be treated as a single model and share the same feature.
The model of the Serial GSM Gateway can be identified by viewing the device information displayed at
the top of the logon, main menu screens and from the ―Show MAC Address‖option located in the
―Device Functions‖menu.
The Professional model will have the letters ―PRO‖as a suffix on the model description, and the MAC
Address will have a valid MAC address. See Figure 1-2 for example.
The Standard model will have the letters ―STD‖as a suffix on the model description, and the MAC
Address will have the letters ―N/A‖. See Figure 1-3 for example.

16
Description of Consoles
The Serial GSM Gateway has four options to connect to its Menu. These options are:
Local Access - USB or SER RS-232
Remote Access –LAN or GPRS
Note The USB and SER options enforce the use of Hardware Flow Control (RTS/CTS). If Hardware
Flow Control is not used in your session connection, the Serial GSM Gateway will not respond with
the logon prompt.
Note The USB, SER and LAN options all share an internal RS-232 communications bus. You are able to
access the Serial GSM Gateway menu using all three options one at a time or simultaneously.
The GPRS option will disable the USB, SER and LAN options when in use.
Note Most Terminal Emulation and Virtual Terminal Emulation applications can be used. Smartsavy
recommends the use of ―PuTTY‖. ―PuTTY‖is available either by download from the Internet or as an
installation package located in the embedded CD Rom of the Serial GSM Gateway.
The Serial GSM Gateway embedded CD Rom hosts a number of installation packages for
―PuTTY‖ that support ―PuTTY‖versions for PC, Symbian® and Microsoft® Windows Mobile™. Refer
to the Serial GSM Gateway Hardware Installation Guide to access the installation packages.
Local Access
USB Console - The USB console is a USB to RS-232 Bridge. On installing the provided drivers as
described in the Serial GSM Gateway Hardware Configuration Guide , a COM Port
names ―Smartsavy Serial Port‖ will be available to your Terminal Emulation
Application.
SER RS-232 Console - The SER console is a RS-232 to RS-232 bridge. No drivers are required,
but to use this option you require a functional COM Port to be available to
your Terminal Emulation Application.
Terminal Emulation application Settings - When establishing a connection from your Terminal
Emulation application to either the USB or SER consoles, The Serial GSM Gateway
factory default COM Port settings are:
9600 Baud
8 data bits
No parity generated or checked
1 stop bit
Hardware flow control (RTS/CTS)

Serial GSM Gateway Software Configuration Guide
Copyright © 2009-2010 Smartsavy Limited. All rights reserved.
17
Remote Access
LAN Console (PRO Model ONLY) - The LAN console is an Ethernet to RS-232 Bridge. No Drivers
are required, but to use this option you require your PC to be connected and
functional on your LAN and the Serial GSM Gateway LAN port is able to be
contacted from your PC. You will also require a Virtual Terminal Emulation
application (TELNET). The LAN console functions as a Terminal Server on your
network.
Virtual Terminal Emulation Application settings - When establishing a connection
from your Virtual Terminal Emulation application to the LAN console, The Serial
GSM Gateway factory default settings are:
IP Address: 192.168.1.1
Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 0.0.0.0
TCP Port: 23
GPRS Console - The GPRS console is an Ethernet to RS-232 Bridge. No Drivers are required, but to
use this option you require a GSM SIM card that is functional and able to establish a
connection to your mobile network provider using GPRS services.
Internet access from your PC and a Virtual Terminal Emulation application is
required.
The GPRS console works in two modes: Server and Client.
Server Mode - Server mode allows you to specify the IP address of the Serial GSM
Gateway in your Virtual Terminal Emulation application and connect to the Serial
GSM Gateway menu much the same as the LAN console. The Serial GSM Gateway
will only connect and listen on the Internet for an inbound connection when
instructed by the customer either by SMS or selecting the Server option from the
Serial GSM Gateway menu when accessed from a local console. The Server
functions as a Terminal Server on the Internet.
Client Mode –Client mode allows the Serial GSM Gateway to establish the
connection to your Virtual Terminal Emulation application. This mode will require
your PC to have a valid Internet IP address. Your Virtual Terminal Emulation
application becomes the Terminal Server on the Internet. The Serial GSM Gateway
will only establish the connection once the customer has instructed the Serial GSM
Gateway to do so. A Valid IP address for the Host PC is required to be given to the
Serial GSM Gateway either by SMS or the Client option from the Serial GSM
Gateway menu when accessed from a local console.
Virtual Terminal Emulation Application settings - When establishing a connection
from your Virtual Terminal Emulation application to the GPRS console, The Serial
GSM Gateway factory default settings are:
IP Address: Provided by the mobile network operator (DHCP) and supplied
to the customer either in SMS message or on screen if using
local Serial GSM Gateway console
TCP Port: 23
Note GPRS Server mode may require your mobile operator to unblock inbound TCP
connections to the Serial GSM Gateway. Consult your mobile network operator.
GPRS Client mode may require reconfiguration of your network. Configuration
changes such as NAT and firewall may be required. Consult your local network
administrator.

Establish a connection to the LAN Console (PRO model only)
Follow these steps to establish a connection to the Serial GSM Gateway LAN console:
Note ―PuTTY‖ application is used for this section.
Note Factory default settings for the Serial GSM Gateway LAN console are used for this section.
IP Address: 192.168.1.1
Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 0.0.0.0
TCP Port: 23
Note Smartsavy provides a utility called “LAN Finder” that is located on the CD Rom menu. The utility
will search your LAN for all Smartsavy devices and return their current network configuration. The
utility uses a broadcast message to 255.255.255.255 which may be affected by your local network
configuration. See your local network administrator to check if broadcasts are configured on your
network.
Step 1 Open ―PuTTY‖ application. You will be presented with the ―PuTTY Configuration‖screen.
