1.2 Wiring
◼Preparation
Take the 4 spacer fastening tabs (which are provided to the device), and place them into the
PCB holes of the Easy2S and the safety box where you want to install the device.
Prepare a screwdriver, the 2 terminal blocks
provided with the device, and the stripped
wire pair necessary for connection, with
appropriate distinctive colors (power
connector –e.g. black-red, input-output wire
pairs –e.g. black-blue, alarm input –e.g.
black-white).
◼Connecting the inputs
The Easy2S has two input lines (IN1, IN2),
where sensors can be connected by connecting its wire pairs, in accordance with the standard
connection method shown below, by fixing the blanked cable wire pairs for each input.
In case of voltage inputs make attention to the order of polarity (+/-), the assembly must be
done according to the inputs line titles (on PCB board).
Take care for the proper position of the input line jumpers.
The device is able to detect wire cut on its input lines.
The inputs may also be used against sabotage purposes –e.g detecting the opening of the
alarm system enclosure / top cover (by connecting a magnetic switch wires to the device).

8
In voltage input operation mode, the input lines can be activated with 5-24V DC voltage, in
opposite way these are inactive.
The proper operation mode must be configured as well with the EasyTerm application.
The inputs can be configured seperately - to operate as a voltage or contact mode for the related
input. These settings can be installed by the closing the related jumper pairs, besides the input
terminal block –according to the input line nr. titles.
Jumperable input modes (with the JP1, JP2 jumpers):
•Contact mode
oThe input line jumper pairs - approach from the connector side (lower two
pins must be closed)
oThe ground point of the input lines (-) are common
oThe wiring of input lines has independent polarity

•Voltage mode
oThe input line jumper pairs –approach from the LED’s side (upper two jumper
pins must be closed)
oGalvanically divided and independent input lines
oMake attention to the polarity when wiring!
The device on the photo is configured to contact input mode (e.g. for safety sensors)
(the jumpers are closed by pairs at lower 2-pins position)

Signal levels:
•Input high signal level: 2-24V
•Input low signal level: 0-1V
•Current in active status (for the Easy2S inputs): 0.33mA
•Current in active status (for the further IO-expansion board inputs): 1-12mA
When the input were activated (IN1, IN2) the INx titled LEDs are signing the active (closed)
status during the operation, with the proper light and colour. See LED signals part.
In case of using the IO -expander board, further 6 pcs of inputs are available (IN3..IN8), which
have the same operation and configuration possibility as listed here above.
In case of using the Easy2 IO -expander board, further 6pcs inputs are available
(IN3..IN8). Their operation and configuration are the same as we described for the
main board. The IO-expnader inputs can be activated with 2-32V voltage.
◼Connecting the relay output
One switchable output device can be connected to the relay output (OUT) of the mainboard),
according to the next figure. Connect the blanked cable wire pair to the OUT title output line’s
terminal block (by sliding the companion piece and inserting the stripped wire pair, then fixing
the screws).
Through the relay output a 2A - 120VAC or 1A
- 24VDC voltage can be switched. When
activating the output line (OUT), the OUT LED
–beside the output - indicates the active
(closed) position with the appropriate
color/light - during the operation.
Attention!
Always switch off power supply before the wiring!
Check that the metal parts of the connected wires are not touch to each other!
The Easy2 IO - expander provides further 3 outputs (OUT2..OUT4). Their operation and
configuration is the same as we described.

11
◼EOL resistor
For the detection of wire cut, you have use and connect a 10kΩ resistor by parallel to
the sensor contact.
◼Connecting the alarm line (ALARM line)
The alarm system can be connected to the ALR input through a wire pair, thus it will be able to
forward its alarm signals –in Contact ID format –to the remote dispatcher centre.
Connect the cable wire pair to the ALR title Alarm
line’s terminal block (by sliding the companion piece
and inserting the stripped wire pair, then fixing the
screws).
When activating the output, the ALR LED –beside
the output - indicates the active (closed) position with the appropriate color/light - during the
operation.
◼Installing the IO-expansion board (optional)
The Easy2S
®
firmware can handle the IO-expander board also (extension for 6pcs plus of inputs,
and 3pcs outputs). Therefore for the IO-board further parameters are available in the device
fiwmrare and they are also configurable by the EasyTerm
®
configuration tool.
◼Connecting the power supply
The 8-24V power-supply voltage (typically 12V power
adapter, or 24V DC power supply) can be connected to the
PWR input. When connecting the power cables, the
device will be immediately started to operating, when the
PWR LED will indicate it with the appropriate color/light.

12
Attention! Don’t forget to insert the SIM-card previously –see Chapter nr. 2.
Pay close attention to polarity of cables! The right side of the PWR connector is the positive (+),
the left side is the negative (-)!
1.3 Operation LED signals
The status LEDs are helping to understand the current operation of the device.
GSM: GSM/GPRS status LED - red
The GSM LED is lighting when the device tries to build the cellular network connection, and it
is lighting of flashing until the TCP/IP connection is active on the network.
The numbers of the LED flashing sequence signs the current signal strength (RSSI) of the
wireless network (more flashing means better signal).

STA: Status LED - yellow
The STA LED assures information about the current operation. It twill be active only if the GPRS
signal transmission permitted. In this case from the beginning of the signal transmission the LED
starts to flashing.
It has 3 operation modes:
•lighting continuously: the last GPRS signaling was succesful
•with 3 second of breaks * number of flashing (the light interval period is half a seconds),
failure code (see later)
•Turned off: GSM operation mode, no error
Failure codes –for signing the device opreation troubles –in case of a failure, read the
Chapter nr. 9!
•0 flashing –in case of using the GSM operation mode
•1 flashing - Module failure
The serial connection is not operating properly between the module and the Easy2S®
board. After 1 minute, the device automatically tries to restart the module.

14
•2 flashing - SIM card failure
Possible reasons:
ono SIM card inserted
oSIM card pinpad contact error
The device in this status will not continues its initialization, the receiving of serial port
commands is still active (for doing the parameter settings). After 1 minute, the device
automatically tries to restart the module.
•3 flashing - PIN authentication failure
Possible reasons:
owrong PIN code
oPUK code (security code) is necessary to give in
The device in this status will not continues its initialization, the receiving of serial port
commands is still active (for parametrizing). After 5 minutes, the device automatically
tries to restart the module.
•4 flashing –The device cannot login to the cellular network
Error during the network registration. After 5 minutes the device restarts the modem
and retries.
•5 flashing –the GPRS is allowed (GPRSEN=1), but the device cannot login to the
2G/3G/4G network
Possible reasons:
owrong APN settings
othe GPRS service is inactive for the SIM card
olow signal strength
othe RADIUS server is out of operation
omaintenance/service tasks by the M.O.

15
•6 flashings –the device is registered to the cellular network, it has an IP address, but
cannot login to the server
Possible reason: the primary and the secondary server is not available/accessable
Visible sympthoms:
•the opening of the TCP/UDP port was not succesful (e.g. wrong server
settings applied),
•unsuccesful data sending
•timeout when tries to receive data or wrong answer
The signal will be active, until the device will be succesfully signaling to a server.
IN1, IN2: Input #1, #2 is active - green
When the input is active (if the 2 pair wire closed; or in case of voltage the power voltage is 5-
24VDC) then the INx LED will light according to the related input.
OUT: Output is active –yellow
The output active indicator OUT LED shows the status of the primer-side of the relay. When the
output is active (the relay pair of wires are closed), then the output OUT LED will light.
MDM RDY: Modem stand-by –red
During the inicialization the MDM LED blinks quickly (approx. twice per seconds). When the
modem is already accessible and operating and has an active communication on the GSM
network, then it will flashing with less frequency.
Main important lights:
•not lights: the module was turned off
•longer periodic flashing: 600 msec filling in / 600 msec filling out: the module not
registered to the network (possible causes: no SIM card, PIN authorization failure,
network search is in progress, login is in progress, etc.)

16
•periodic short flashing: 75 msec filling in / 3 sec filling out: normal operation,
connected to the GSM network
•continuously lights: voice call active (e.g. during GSM signal transmitting)
ALR: Alarm center active - green
When the device connected to the alarm center it shows the status of the the alarm line (Tip-
Ring). Lights: speaker pulled on, not lights: speaker put down or alarm center not presented.
PWR: Power voltage active - green
Signs when the Easy2S is under power and voltage and operating. When it is not lighting, the
device is powered off and has no active power source.
1.4 Operation requirements

Chapter 2. Installation of the device
To install the Easy2s
®
device, follow the next steps.
When the device was already installed, jump to the Installation part and check the current firmware
version of the device (SWVER value in the EasyTerm application). The version should be V2.1
R08C1 or newer. If it is older, then IMMEDIATELY redfresh the firmware!
2.1 Installation on site
It is a logical step to place and install the device to a protected position - as usual placed into a safety
alarm center’s box or other protected area.
IMPORTANT! Take care that the device IS NOT under power voltage, so this must be turned off
and the LEDs lights are should not lighting or flashing before continue the following steps!
1. Mount a 2G/3G/LTE antenna (according to the module) as it can be seen in the picture to the
SMA connector (2), until it sleeves.
In case of wired antenna place the magnetic antenna to fixed position –i fit is possible in
vertical direction (and polarisation) –and then connect the antenna cable to the device.
2. The SIM card must be inserted or removed only in turned off status of the Easy 2 device!
3. For inserting the SIM, slide the 2G, 3G or
LTE compatible SIM card (which is
provided by the Mobile Operator) into
the aluminum SIM tray of the device.
The SIM chip must look down, the MO
logo looks upside, the card’s cutted edge
looks to the PCB (as it is shown on the
picture). Push the card until it seize -
while the a click noise will be heard (then it will be fixed).

19
(If it’s needed you can remove the card by pushing the SIM –but only after you’ve turned
off the device!)
4. Wire the required inputs –e.g. use them for connecting sensors –by wiring the cables pairs to
the input terminal block (4) (IN1, IN2) as it was already described before.
It is possible to monitoring the devices safety by using the sabotage protection feature: connect
the cables of the magnetic switch of the safety box’s cover (detection of opening) to the input
line of the Easy2S .
5. Wire the cable pair of the switchable external device to the OUT titled input terminal block (7)
connector. You can connect a siren or gate opening circuit or key switch to the output line.
6. If you would like to use the device as an alarm center signal transmitter (as it is operating by
default), then connect the alarm center to the alarm input line (ALR titled) (no. 8).
7. You can setup the operation of the input lines by its jumpers (5) behind the input lines (IN1,
IN2). The operation mode of the input line can be contact or voltage.
8. Connect the 12V/24V DC power by the power chord of the alarm center (or by a power adapter
(12V DC 1A) to the power plug’s terminal block (no. 3. - PWR titled).
Then the device will be under voltage, turned on and operating. The LEDs (6) are flashing
according the current operation –as listed in chapter 2.2.
By default the device is operating as a GSM/2G-3G-4G alam center signal transmitter. (You can
reconfigure the device for different operation mode).
2.2 Turning on the device
After starting the Easy2S
®,
ca. 40-50 seconds are required from to the operate on the cellular
netwirk, which will be signed by the status LEDs according to the following sequence.
•When the power voltage added, the devices turns on. The PWR LED continuously lighting
by green.
•If the input(s) are wired then the IN1, IN2 LEDs are continuously lighting by green.

20
•Then later the MDM RDY LED blinks a several times by red, that the GSM modem is
started.
•Soon the STA LED will be lightning intermittently a few times –by yellow colour - (3-times
in a second with some breaking between the light-sequences). Then the device loads and
initializes the system firmware.
•Then the GSM LED blinks by red a few times intermittently, which means that the GSM
modem network registration has started.
•The yellow lighting of the STA LED signs that the network registration was succesful and
the first life signal of the device were already transmitted.
•Then the device is operating related to the configuration parameter settings and it sends
data through and life signals through the network periodically.
•For the further LED status signals see the LED signals table.
When you will notice any different operation of the device, check the Problem troubleshooting part
of the Chapter nr. 9!
Warning!
When your device was already installed, check the current firmware version of the
device (SWVER value in the EasyTerm application). When the version is not V2.1
R08C1 or newer then IMMEDIATELY change it for the firmware!
If you need to turn off the device:
The device can be powered off by removing the power input cables (unplugging the cables from
the PWRpower input (3) or disconnecting the connected power supply).
Wait 10 seconds between disconnecting and reconnecting the power supply, and
switching on the device again.
