1. INTRODUCTION
TBox20 is a compact monitoring and control device for remote objects with support for
Short Messages (SMS). The device is configurable through internal WEB server interface via
GSM network and RS232 interface. Multiple users can interrogate TBox20 or be notified on
configurable events.
2. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION
•Power 24V ±10% (for the model TBox20-2401)
•Wireless modem: Quad Band GSM (850/900/1800/1900MHz)
•4 digital inputs (“0” (false) 0 – 1V, “1” (true) 2-24V, terminal blocks)
•2 analog inputs. (0 – 10V max 15V, 0-20mA max 30ma, terminal blocks)
•4 relay outputs (~250V, 7A, terminal blocks)
•Interfaces RS232 (RJ45 connector) and GSM GPRS (antenna MMCX connector)
•Alarm message service via SMS, E-Mail
•Protocols HTTP and SMTP
•Configurable through internal WEB server interface
•Watchdog controller
•Operating temperature range from -20°C to +55°C
•DIN Rail Mounting
3. MECHANICAL INTEGRATION
3.1. PACKAGE CONTENTS
3.1.1. TBox20;
3.1.2. Serial cable PORT1 (one connector – female COM port, another – RJ45);
3.1.3. GSM antenna (MMCX connector);
3.1.4. The CD with Software and User’s Manual.
3.2. DIMENSIONS
The plastic case of TBox20 is light and suitable for fitting with electronic instruments that can
hook to the DIN EN 50022.
When a place for TBox20 is being planned, it should be considered that GSM antenna, which is
supplied in your package, should NOT be placed in metal case. The supplied antenna usually has
2,5 meters length cable, so if you plan to mount TBox20 into a metal case, please mount the
antenna outside the metal case. If cable length of 2,5 meters is not enough, contact our sales
department to order antennas with longer cables.

3.3. FRONT PANEL
PWR – Power LED turns on when power is applied to Tbox20. It also shows the device’s working
status:
•LED ON;
•LED blink low (0.2s ON, 0.6s OFF) – the device is registered in GSM network;
•LED blink high (0.4s ON, 0.4s OFF) – the device transmits via GSM network.
ERR – Error LED turns on when the device has faulty working conditions.
RX – Indicate the receiving data to the device via serial port.
TX – Indicate the sending data from the device via serial port.
DIN – Indicate the digital input’s voltage “true” level.
ROUT – Indicate the relay output status.
RS232 – Standard serial communication port.

Pin name Description
AIN 1 -
AIN 1 +
Analog input 1. Input voltage range is from 0 to 10V (max 15V) or input current
range is 0-20mA (max 30mA).
AIN 1 -
AIN 1 +
Analog input 2. Input voltage range is from 0 to 10V (max 15V) or input current
range is 0-20mA (max 30mA).
DIN 1 Digital input 1. This input is optically isolated by two different voltage levels: 0…1V
– false; 2…24V – true.
DIN 2 Digital input 2. This input is optically isolated by two different voltage levels: 0…1V
– false; 2…24V – true.
DIN 3 Digital input 3. This input is optically isolated by two different voltage levels: 0…1V
– false; 2…24V – true.
DIN 4 Digital input 4. This input is optically isolated by two different voltage levels: 0…1V
– false; 2…24V – true.
┴Digital input ground. It is separated from module ground (power supply,
analog input) because digital inputs are optically isolated.
+24V
0V
Device power. Voltage is 24V ±10% DC. Power consumption:
Stand by mode ~50mA@24V, peak up to 300mA@24V. As switched power
regulator is used inside, the smaller the voltage, the bigger the current and
vice versa (power consumption remains about the same)

Start/Programs/ Teltonika/Tbox20
directory. To open the program, click the
icon on the taskbar.
5.3.4. Select serial port number to which
Tbox20 is connected.
5.3.5. Write to TCP/IP Port number “5000”.
5.3.6. Click the link http://localhost:5000 and
Internet explorer window will run automatically. There you will see Tbox20
application.
5.3.7. You can find possible port to which is connected TBox20 device by pressing the
button Autodetect. After you need to select detected COM port with record Box.
Sign - (Com2-) – port 2 not exist. Sign + (Com4 Box+) port 4 exists, connected to
TBox20 and currently it is active (+). Record COM1 without sign and “Box” – port

exists. If “..” with COM port number, then the port is busy. Maybe it is opened by
another program.
6. DATA CONFIGURATION
Data configuration is executed by the internal WEB server application. You need to connect
Tbox20 to PC and the server program should be run (see section 5.3).
