Ensure there is good mobile phone signal on

site first and check which network is best.

Take care to ensure you have selected the

proper hardware (2G or 2G+3G model)

Set up on a bench in workshop BEFORE

going to site. Program the unit in the comfort

of your work bench and call technical support

should you have questions.

Power Cable

GSM intercom systems use more than 5 times the power of traditional hard wired intercoms
during a call, especially in lower reception areas. Therefore power cable that works ok on hard
wired systems may not work on this product. Please refer to the power cable guide below,
otherwise manufacturers warranty WILL be void.

To avoid such problems, it is recommended (and is good practice) to locate the power supply as
close to the transmitter as possible. This avoids power cable noise and interference and enhances
the lifetime of the product.

Powering Up

Perform a final check of wiring and ensure the antenna is connected before switching on the
power. Once the power is switched on, the power LED should illuminate.

TIPS:
My GSM LED is still searching…

-Check the SIM card is registered and can make a call in a phone (standard voice & text SIM).

-Check the SIM card is seated correctly. Power off, clean the contacts on the SIM and the GSM
unit, and reinsert the SIM.

-Check power cable distance and thickness.

-Change network.

-Fit an external high gain antenna, keep high, away from metal objects and shrubs. Avoid sharp
bends on antenna cable.

0.12mm e.g. CAT5 & alarm cable (not recommended)

1.0mm2 (6 metres MAX)

0.75mm2 (4 metres MAX)

0.5mm2 (2 metres MAX)

confirm before sending the string. The intercom should then

reply with a signal level between 1 and 31.

1-12
Poor

13-20

Medium

21-31
Good

For good performance, signal level on 2G should be at least 13.
On 3G products it should be no less than 10.

TIP: If signal is lower than recommended, then take IMMEDIATE

action. Change network if possible, or use an optional high gain
antenna. Check power cable is within recommended
specification. (Poor power cable can lower reception).

5. Pass Codes

CAUTION: Take care when changing pass codes. There are
2 levels of 4-digit code (both must be different):

1. Engineers/Programmers code (default 9999)

2. Access/user code (default 1234)
You may wish to change both from their defaults for security.

Restore the app to using default codes (does not
restore the intercom)

Enter new programmers code (default 9999)

Enter new user/access code (default 1234)

If changing default codes, then you will now need to update
the client list before you can do any further programming.

If the 1234 user access code is changed, then you will
also need to change it on the home owners app.

SMS Strings:

9999#01XXXX# (X=new programmers code)
9999#02XXXX# (X=new user access code)

6.Relay Times

Relay default trigger times are 1 second. Use this feature
to change a relay for a longer time perhaps for a magnetic
door lock or to make one relay a momentary relay and the
other a 1 hour relay for example.

SMS string for relay 1:

9999#50XXXX# (X=time in seconds, 1-9999)

SMS string for relay 2:

9999#51XXXX# (X=time in seconds, 1-9999)

Enter time in SECONDS then press SAVE to send
SMS

TIP: Iphone users will be taken to SMS screen to
confirm message. Android devices will auto send the
SMS.

SMS string for entering text to display:

9999#79XXXXXXX# (X is any text message you wish to

display on the phone. E.g. Gates Opened)

9. Auto Relay Trigger Times

Create up to 40 automatic time clock events to trigger or
latch/unlatch gates (depending on gate system setup).
For auto closing gates, send latch command at the desired
opening time, followed by a separate unlatch event to close at
the desired closing time.
For step-by-step operated gates (non auto-closing), then send
a momentary trigger command at the time required to change
the state of the gates from open to closed or closed to open.

1. Pick the type of event (momentary/latch/unlatch)

2. Choose the days

3. Enter the time in military 24hr format without colon
E.g. 8.30am = 0830. 11:10pm = 2310.

11. Clock Sync

The unit has an internal time clock counter, which reads the
time from an incoming SMS message, and uses this to
calibrate its time clock.

For power failure events, this feature allows the unit to send a
SMS to itself after a power failure.

Simply press the button and the app will send a SMS string to
the intercom storing the phone number from the SIM card
inside memory.

TIP: Use this if your area experiences regular power cuts and
your client is using timed features.

Note: Using this feature will cause the unit to be busy for 2-3
minutes after a reboot. Please be patient with programming
etc after a re-boot.

9999#86telephonenumber#

Pass code

Function code

Phone number of the SIM

card in the intercom

TIP: 9999#86*# will delete this number again

11b. Daylight Saving

For regions where there is a 1 hour time shift for daylight
saving, it can be useful to have the intercom send itself a
SMS every set number of days to re-synchronise the internal
clock. The intercom will do this anyway each time a SMS is
received.

Set the number of days between SMS message
sending (depending on carrier provider, this may be
chargeable to the customer).

12. Do not disturb

This feature allows the push button on the intercom to be
active during pre-set times, and ignore button presses all
other times.
Use this screen to set the ACTIVE times and days for the
button.

Quick enable/disable button

Select start and finish times for the button to work

12b. After Hours / Out of Hours

If you have activated the do not disturb feature, the push
button will not call anyone after the pre-set time threshold.
However, sometimes it is useful to have the intercom call a
different number after hours. For example, in commercial
premises it can call the office phones during business hours,
and then call a security guard after hours.

1.Enter phone number to call after hours.

2. Enter button number (enter 1 for single button
system)

Troubleshooting

Please see faults in order of most common…

1: Not detecting network (blue light flashing 5 times in search mode, no green CPU light).

A: SIM card not detected. Power off, remove, clean sim contacts and re-insert and power on
again.
A: SIM card inserted wrong way round. Check manual for correct orientation.
A: SIM is a data sim, or has not been activated.
A: SIM has no signal in the area.
A: Antenna not connected.
A: Too many sharp bends on antenna cable.
A: Antenna mounted too low or inside metal enclosure.
A: Power cable from 24v psu is too long or too thin. Refer to manual for guidelines.

2: Not responding to SMS messages and not making outgoing calls.
A: No credit on SIM card.
A: Power cable not within spec. Refer to manual for guidelines.

3: Not triggering gates or lock when activated from phone.

A: Check relay with multi-meter.
A: Check relay 2 with multi-meter. If relay 2 works but relay 1 does not, then relay 1 may be
defective.
A: Check power cable is within specifications according to this manual.
A: Check if it works by SMS. Try latching a relay then use the status button to check if the relay is
latched. If that works, problem could be the phone being used, or low signal strength at the
intercom.

3: Poor sound or buzzing

A: Ensure there is no spare antenna cable inside the call point with the intercom. Straighten
excess cable.
A: Install the antenna further away from the intercom.
A: Check the power cable is within guidelines of this manual.

4: Home owner app not working correctly

A: Check the settings on the app has the intercom SIM number and pass codes entered correctly.
