1. INTRODUCTION

Transmitter LX20G is a modern, microprocessor device for data transmission
in real time, capable of simulating a telephone line (PSTN) with the transmission in the GSM voice channel. In case of telephone line failure or by selecting the appropriate prefix the device is able to perform a voice call to the monitoring station, allowing you to transfer data from the control panel via the Contact ID (DTMF) or SIA (FSK). There are also available other channels of transmission: GPRS and SMS.
LX20G transmitter provides the highest security of data transmission through up to four channels of transmission: PSTN / GSM VOICE / GPRS / SMS. The primary purpose is to use the device as a security systems transmission module in PSTN and GSM voice channels. LX20G transmitter works with all most popular alarm systems. The addition of a packet data transmission (GPRS), can reduce the cost of the alarm systems. This device provides an opportunity to send text messages to private mobile phones.
An advanced encoding methods like a 256 bytes encoding key and AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) provides for security of data transmission. As a result reception of this transmission is possible with OSM.Server monitoring receiver system. Furthermore there is possibility to transmit not coded messages that are to be comprehensible by reception solutions and also by GPRS Server software.
Programming of receiver is possible:
o Locally on computer and with recommended “GPRS transmitter
configurator” software
o Remotely - via GPRS connection
- via SMS commands
- via transmission on CSD canal

4. QUICK START PROCEDURE

NOTE : Do not insert SIM card before the first programming of transmitter as it may block the card if PIN code is required for the card.
This chapter is purposed for users that possess experience regarding GPRS data transmission systems and who work with OSM.Server server. Other users shall skip this chapter and go to chapter 5 of this Manual.
As many users possess protected facilities spread at vast locations, local programming of transmitter is not always available (with computer keyboard and programming cable).
Two phases comprise programming in this option:
a) sending to transmitter of main parameters (with SMS) that enable connection
to communication server (OSM.Server system).
b) full configuration of device with remote programming (GPRS transmitters
configurator and OSM.Server).
Quick start procedure:
a) insert into device SIM card with PIN code 1111 or without PIN code. b) connect power supply for module, c) send to SIM card number with SMS parameters related to connection of
device to communication server (OSM.Server)
d) waiting for moment, when device indicates connection to server
Note: Connection to server is possible if the device was registered into it. Registration procedure has been described in OSM.Server Operation Manual.
e) complete, remote programming with GPRS transmitters configurator.
SMS text message shall provide the following information:
<transmitter’s service code>SERVER=<server address>PORT=<server port>
APN=<access point name>UN=<user ID number> PW=<user password>
Where:
: space (every parameter shall be separated with space – blank character)
<transmitter’s service code>: factory settings -1111
<server address>: address of communication server purposed for collection of
transmitter signals e.g. 89.123.115.8 In case address is provided as domain e.g. block.autostrada.com, SMS message shall include DNS1 parameter (address of main DNS server)
<server port>: Number of port in server that receives messages from a device <access point name>: defines access point name to GSM network.
If private network is used, SMS message shall provide the following parameters: UN=<user ID number> and PW=<user password>. Exemplary SMS is as follows (if we use public network and provide server address as IP):

5. OPERATION

Default communication mode of LX20G device is voice channel over GSM network. A device can be also configured to maintain communication via GPRS network or SMS messages. Communication mode is configurable – see chapter 7. for more information. As a result the transmitter may be used only at the territory covered with mobile phone operator network.
If status of inputs is the same as programmed one (NO or NC) a device stays in a rest. Change of status on any input results in immediate signal transmitting of this event by the device.
In case of voice channel communication mode there is possibility to choose 2 signalling formats: ContactID or SIA.
Note:
Each device input (from IN1 till IN2) may be individually defined as on open one (NO) or closed one (NC). It means that when in NO, input shorting will be an active state and, a non-shorting will be an active state in NC.
To avoid an excessive cost of use related in particular to false alarms a device possesses a programmable analysis of inputs.
All inputs respond only to states change which means that transmitting will follow only if an active state is on input and maintains during programmed minimum time. Maintenance of active state longer than a minimum time will result in single indicating. Another input activation (another transmitting) is possible only after input reached based state.
Number of messages sent in SMS mode is limited (limit includes also text massages or answers to orders sent by user).This function provides for cost reduction by limiting messages e.g. in case of damage of sensor connected to any input. After passage of programmed time new messages will be sent but only in a number determined by the user.
Text message on events sent to private phone numbers may be edited.
All programmable parameters are saved in memory and in case of voltage drop that are not lost. Supply of power starts the transmitter with saved settings.

This function save on disc any information from configuration wizard window. After activation of function a dialog window appears with request to provide file name. Default data is saved with CMI extension (Configuration Memory Image).
6.3.4. File -> Language
Allows for selection of any available languages (determined in attached exterior language files).
6.3.5. File -> Connections
Before programming of devices, a connection type shall be defined. It is possible to do it with two methods:
- locally
- remotely.
6.3.5.1. Local connection
Local connection means that configuration software (namely computer on which is installed) is directly connected to proper terminal of transmitter. Connection is possible owing to special wire and through RS-232 serial port.
To program device or make any other operations (e.g. reading of device settings, firmware amendments, etc.) it is necessary firstly to define connection parameters.
It is possible to do so with the above window that is available after activation of
connection from Main Menu and selection Configuration tab or after clicking on icon on fast access bar and clicking on RS-232 tab.
Define: Name of connection e.g. Locally Choose serial port e.g. COM 4

parity (none), stop bytes (1)
Click [Add] button to confirm settings and save connection (settings are inserted into table). Since that time a remote connection to device, reading and saving of parameters in LX20G memory is possible.
Note : Remote configuration with CSD canal is possible if option of CSD data sending has been activated both for SIM card inserted into a device and SIM card installed in GSM modem. Beside, LX20G transmitter must enable to pick up data calls (see GSM modems authorized phones)
Programming with CSD is also possible if OSM.Server system has been installed, and minimum one GSM modem is connected. If device has been entered onto server list (factory number and SIM card telephone number –See OSM.Server Operation Manual) it is possible to use link via OSM. It is possible if device is not connected to the OSM.Server via GPRS. During programming procedure (with GPRS link- See above) a question will be displayed if user want to use a modem connected to the server. After confirmation procedure will follow as in case of other programming channels.

6.3.6. File -> Automatic device settings backup

All configuration settings including reread from devices and saved on devices are to be automatically saved on hard disc. If during installation on configuring tool settings have not been changed, files will be saved as follows: C:\Program Files\ EBS\KonfiguratorLX\configs\LX20G _20000 Catalog LX20G_20000 contains all files in respect of LX20G with factory number of 20000 programming. The name contains date and time of operation and its type (saving/ reading). Files have cmi extension.

7. PROGRAMMABLE PARAMETERS

Parameters available in configuration program are divided into groups: Access, Transmission, Inputs/ Outputs, Monitoring, Restrictions, SMS Notifications, Link control, RS-232, Phone line, Dialer and Firmware. Each of these groups will be described in detail in next part of this manual.

7.1. ACCESS

7.1.1. Parameters

7.1.1.1. Device mode
Depending of user preferences, a device may operate in 1 out 3 modes (available from scrolled list):
o GPRS & SMS: GPRS standard transmission (TCP/IP Protocol), and if any
problems follow with this link it automatically SMS mode will follow.
o SMS: Transmission only in SMS mode, without trial to establish GPRS link. o GPRS: GPRS standard transmission (TCP/IP Protocol), and in case of any
problems with this link no transmission will follow.
o Serverless: no transmission to the server is possible, remote communication
possible only via SMS notifications to the user or dialer

station that the device is in operation mode. In this field you can determine how often this message will be sent (in seconds) .
7.1.1.3. SMS mode after unsuccessful attempts
Define number of reconnections to server. If during all reconnections fail the device will go into SMS mode. In this mode LX20G will try to make connection with server, according to interval defined in clause 7.1.3.3
7.1.1.4. SMS test time
This function is analogical to GPRS. It is activated when problems with GPRS transmission follow when the device automatically goes into SMS mode (it relates to operation mode in SMS). Usually it is undesirable to send text as SMS so often as with GPRS transmission. Parameter this allow for significant extension of distance between tests (time in minutes) or completely interlocking of this option.
7.1.1.5. Server phone number
If GSM modem is connected to server application (e.g. OSM.Server) enter in this field its number. Any SMS will be sent to this number if transmitter has got problems with GPRS transmission. If this field is left blank or 0 was entered, the transmitter will be operating exclusively in GPRS mode.
Note : This field will be inactive if device is to operate in GPRS mode.
7.1.1.6. Sends events via SMS immediately
In case of GPRS connection lost device will send SMS reports immediately, even if the LX20G isn’t in SMS mode yet.

7.1.2. APN Parameters

7.1.2.1. APN

7.1.2.2. User ID
When using public APN , user ID is mostly not required. For private APN this parameter shall be obtained from operator (it is impossible to be granted access to GPRS network without it).
7.1.2.3. User password
When using public APN , user ID is mostly not required. For private APN this parameter shall be obtained from operator (it is impossible to be granted access to GPRS network without it).
Note : Private APN provides for higher system security.
7.1.2.4. DNS1 and DNS2
It determines address of main and backup DNS server (Domain Name System). If IP server address has been entered in form of domain it is required to provide minimum one DNS address.

7.1.3. Main Server Parameters

7.1.3.1. Server IP Address
It is address of receiver of monitoring system (OSM.Server) or computer where “Communication Server” software has been installed , e.g. 89.123.115.8. This address may be provided in domain name of server, e.g. module.gprs.com. In this case it is required to provide minimum one address of DNS server.
7.1.3.2. Server port
It determines server port that was selected in server for collection of data from transmitter.
7.1.3.3. Interval between subsequent connection attempts
Programmable and equipped with SIM card device will try to make automatic connection with server. In this field you define interval (in seconds) after which next connection will follow if the previous connection failed.
7.1.3.4. Number of connection attempts
In this filed you determine how many times device will try to make connection to server. If connections fail, LX20G after execution of some connection will start procedure of connection to back up server. This option is active only if we define parameters of backup server.
Page 25
LX20G_Manual_en_v2.1
Page 25 /
69
7.1.3.5. Order of connection to servers
Mark this check box means, that the device will try in first order to connect to primary server, without regard on definition of parameters for backup server (in peculiarity of number of connection attempts).

7.1.4. Backup server parameters

7.1.4.1. IP server address
It is IP address of second (backup) receiver of monitoring system (OSM.Server) or
computer where “Communication Server” software has been installed , e.g.
89.130.125.82. This address may be provided in domain name of server, e.g. monitor.gprs.com. In this case it is required to provide minimum one address of DNS server.
7.1.4.2. Server port
It determines server port that was selected in server for collection of data from transmitter.
7.1.4.3. Interval between subsequent connection
If device can not connect to primary server defined this after exhaustion for him number of attempts, it will begin realizing the procedure of connecting to backup server. We in this place define space of time (in seconds), after which test will connecting renewed if previous finished with failure.
7.1.4.4. Number of connection attempts
In this field you determine how often device will try to make connection to backup server. If connections fail, LX20G after execution of some connection will back to procedure of connection to primary server.
7.1.4.5. Disconnect after time limit
If you mark this choice field the device will disconnect from back up server after passage of set time. Further operation depends on defined parameter Order of connection (See clause 7.1.3.5). If this option is active the device reconnects to the primary server. If this option is not active the device firstly completes connection to backup server procedure and if this fails, the device will try to connect to the primary server.

7.1.5. ACCESS

7.1.5.1. Service code
It provides security against unauthorized access. It is being used during programming of device and during remote controlling (in TCP/IP or SMS mode). Factory setting is 1111. During the first starting of device (programming) it shall be changed. Code may consist of up to seven alpha numerical characters.
Page 26
LX20G_Manual_en_v2.1
Page 26 /
69
7.1.5.2. Installer code
Allows restricted access to the parameters of device. When installer code is used following groups of parameters are unavailable: Access, Transmission, Restrictions, SMS notifications, Link control, RS232, Phone line and Dialer. Choosing
unauthorized groups of parameters in “GPRS transmitter configurator” causes error
notification. Default installer code: 2222
7.1.5.3. PIN of SIM card
As a device operates via GSM network, SIM card is indispensable and it may be received from phone operator. Before the first use PIN code of SIM card shall be programmed for operation in given transmitter. PIN code is indispensable for automatic system launching. In case of card without PIN code, it is possible to enter any value e.g. 0000. If you enter wrong PIN number after inserting card and switching on transmitter, the system will not launch and you may be able to use card after entering PUK card only (with use of any GSM mobile phone). Factory setting of PIN in LX20G transmitter is 1111.

7.2. TRANSMISSION

For the purpose of maximum security of transmission, data is encrypted with AES key. This option may be used for GPRS and SMS transmission. After selection of encrypted transmission you may use your own code (256 bytes – signs 0-9 and A-F) or use default settings. Selection of not coded transmission means device operation similar to PX transmitters.

7.3. INPUTS/OUTPUTS

Transmitter has got 2 signal inputs and additional input for sabotage signal switch­key connection. Module is equipped with three outputs: indicating sabotage and two additional ones. In/Out option enable programmable configuration so that transmitter operates pursuant to requirements of the user. All inputs of the device are 24 hour alarm inputs.

7.3.1. Inputs configuration

For every input the following settings shall be determined respectively.
7.3.1.1. NO/NC
This parameter allows us to determine the steady state of the input. Change of this state results in sending information on alarm. Allowable NC and NO input. NC input shall be shorted to ground. Actuation follows after decay. NO input remains open. At this moment of shortening to ground activation follows.
7.3.1.2. Delay [ms]
This parameter means minimum time for change maintenance at input so that it would be detected by transmitter. Factory setting is 400ms.
7.3.1.3. Lock
Page 28
LX20G_Manual_en_v2.1
Page 28 /
69
With this option you can lock any input of module, and as a result condition
Event: automatic input lock
Event: automatic input unlock
Limit: N = 2 input changes during Tb time (3rd change activates input lock)
Tb
Tb Tb Tb Tb
Input activation and deactivation
Input activation and deactivation – no reaction
Temporary input lock
Events send to server
Event: input active
Event: input not active
- Locally there can be 2 x N – 1 input activations. In summary average number of activations during defined period of time will be preserved.
- N and Tb parameters may be set per input
changes on this input will be ignored and will not be reported to monitoring station. Lock may be persistent or temporary.
In case of temporary lock – user can set lock time and number of input state
changes after which lock occurs. Lock time is counted from first input state change.
Both types of lock can be deactivated by SMS or GRPS command (RLIMIT
command)
Temporary lock may be deactivated by SMS or GPRS command (RLIMIT command).

7.3.2. Partitions

Partitions are configured using 3.Inputs/Outputs->Partitions tab.
Page 29
LX20G_Manual_en_v2.1
Page 29 /
69
7.3.2.1. Partition arming input
Using this, partition arming input can be selected. To selected input, arming device (remote controller receiver output or electronic keyboard NO/NC output for instance) is connected. When this input is armed, partition is armed (after Exit Time, see below). When arming input is disarmed, partition is disarmed.
7.3.2.2. Inputs assigned to partitions
Assigning input to partition means that it is monitored only when partition to which input belongs is armed. Input can be assigned up to one partition. Arming inputs can not be assigned to any partition. If input is not assigned to any partition, it acts as 24 hours input – it is monitored regardless of partitions state.
7.3.2.3. Delayed inputs
Here, delayed inputs can be selected. Delayed input switches on associated outputs, ie. generates alaram, after Entry time after it is armed, but only when partition to which input belongs will not be disarmed before Entry time period.
7.3.2.4. Exit time
Partition exit time. Partition inputs will be monitored when this configured time elapses after partition input had been armed.
7.3.2.5. Entry time
Time after which alarm will be generated after delayed input had been armed and partition to which delayed input belongs will not be disarmed

7.3.3. Outputs configuration

Tab Output 1 (OUT1)” , „ Output 2 (OUT2)” and Output 3 (OUT3)” specify conditions of switch outputs. Settings for all outputs are identical so they will be described in one chapter.
7.3.3.1. Activation mode and timing
Thanks to this option you may choose output operation mode. There are two operation modes available:
o Bistable - connection follows for indefinite time- up to the moment of
disconnection of power for module or remote command which switches output off,
o Monostable - connection follows for time defined by user - every 100ms.
7.3.3.2. Conditions
Defines conditions for activating both of outputs. User can set following conditions:
o No connection to server (immediately after detection); o No GSM signal (immediately after detection); o Detection of incoming call from defined telephone number; o Dependent on state transitions from non-active to active of one of the inputs.
Outputs can be also activated by internal watchdog, which can be configured in “Link control” group.

7.3.4. Advanced outputs control

The user is able to determine an alternative course of action to go over basic outputs configuration function described in 0 . In the “Advanced outputs control”
Page 31
LX20G_Manual_en_v2.1
Page 31 /
69
you may define separately the behavior of each of the outputs, depending on events taking place. Advanced outputs control” differs from the existing basic “Outputs configuration” by:
o it is possible not only to turn on but also to turn off the output o output can be activated temporarily for specified amount of time o there is a complete list of events for which you can define the behavior of the
output
Note: where possible, use either the basic configuration of outputs (0 ) or with an “Advanced outputs control”!
In particular, the basic configuration of existing options: “No connection to server (immediately after detection)”, No GSM signal (immediately after detection)and Dependent on state transitions from non-active to active of one of the inputsshould not be used with their replacements [Off] Server”, [Off] GSMand [On] Input x.
7.3.4.1. Output 1/Output 2/Output 3
These columns define which signals are to influence the status of a specific output. Possible choices are:
o Do Nothing – output status will be not changed (default action) o Turn on output – output will be permanently turned on o Turn on output temporarily – output will be turned on for an amount of time
specified by parameter 7.3.4.2 Time of output activation
o Turn off output – output will be turned off
Press the [Reset] button to assign the action “Do Nothing” for each event.
Page 32
LX20G_Manual_en_v2.1
Page 32 /
69
The output state does not change if the current state of the output coincides with the result of the action.
7.3.4.2. Time of output activation
Parameter defining amount of time for which the output is to be turned on for the functions of advanced outputs control.
Page 33
LX20G_Manual_en_v2.1

69

7.4. MONITORING

Thanks to this option you may determine which of available signals generated by the device shall be transmitted to monitoring station.
NOTE: “Configuration changed” event refer to configuration changes made
by SMS or GPRS commands.

7.4.1. The use of non-volatile memory of the own events

This setting protects the memory of the own events before deleting eg. if restart or power loss. If you select “Enable non-volatile events FIFOcauses:
o Nothing event generated by the device should not be lost. o All of the events are reported to the OSM Server with the time stamp with
resolution of 10msec.
o All events are sent to the Server chronologically. o Command FLUSH=0, deletes only the events stored in the non-volatile
memory and generates the event EVENT_FIFO_FLUSHED.
o The function skip the initial states does not work. o The function of limiting the number of sent SMS can not give large benefits.
If you don’t choose “Enable non-volatile events FIFO”:
o Restart of the transmiter causes the loss of all unsent events. Events that will
not be lost:
Page 34
LX20G_Manual_en_v2.1
Page 34 /
69
o EVENT_CONFIGURATION_CHANGED o EVENT_SERVICE_BEGIN o EVENT_SERVICE_END o EVENT_INCOMING_DATACALL_BEGIN o EVENT_INCOMING_DATACALL_END o EVENT_FIRMWARE_CHANGED.
o To OSM Server is sent information abort the occurrence of the event and the
number of occurrences without giving a time (eg. A violation of input 2: 14 times).
o Events may be sent not in chronological order, even though the transmiter is
trying to send earlier, the events which occurred first.
o Command FLUSH=0, deletes only the events stored in the volatile memory
and generates the event EVENT_FIFO_FLUSHED.
Regardless of choosing the option “Enable non-volatile events FIFO”:
o If in the memory are unsent messages from the control panel and the
memory will be disabled by changing the configuration, unsent events can be sent when the memory will be enabled again.
Memory related events:
o EVENT_FIFO_FAILURE – when queue is damaged. o EVENT_FIFO_OVERFLOW – when queue is overflowed. o EVENT_FIFO_FLUSHED – when queue is cleared by remote command
FLUSH=0.

7.4.2. GPRS On / GPRS Off

In this column you define signals that are to be reported to monitoring station with GPRS transmission. There is possibility to send information on alarms (input state change from rest to action status) and on returns of input state from action to rest (normalization). To transmit any signal you should only click it (proper square on your right). Click on [Clear] button to remove all marked signals. Click on [Invert] button to change markings to contrary.
Page 35
LX20G_Manual_en_v2.1
Page 35 /
69

7.4.3. SMS On / SMS Off

In this column you define signals that may be reported at monitoring station with SMS messages – when there is no connection with server over GPRS. There is possibility to send information on alarms (input state change from rest to action status) and on returns of input state from action to rest (normalization). To transmit any signal you should only click it (proper square on your right). Click on [Clear] button to remove all marked signals. Click on [Invert] button to change markings to contrary.

7.4.4. Skip initial state

This option allow for locking of sending of information on status of active inputs at power connection. Information on inputs will be sent to server after the first change from inactive to active status. For the events Power and Battery no selection Skip initial state will cause sending information about the power supply / battery on boot device regardless of the power supply / battery state.

7.4.5. Power loss

One of device additional options is monitoring of power supply voltage. As short voltage drop may follows at some facilities, it is possible to avoid reporting by entering time after which information will be sent. Value of this parameter means that voltage drop shall follow within this determined time so that device recognizes it as real voltage drop and that information might be sent.

The transmitter controls buffer contents in respect of meeting of determined criteria. It is performed with the following order: selected character, time, number of characters. Discharge of buffer (transmission) follows if one criteria is fulfilled.

7.8.3. Advanced port options

7.8.3.1. Disable data receiving
This option allow for lock of data received from device connected to RS-232 port of transmitter. It is used in case of failure or situation when LX20G is being used to control the device.
7.8.3.2. Disable data sending
This option allow for lock of data sending to device connected to RS-232 port of transmitter. This prevent accidental or unauthorized controlling of the device.
7.8.3.3. Half Duplex mode
This option provides for automatic lock of data receiving (via RTS) if transmitter begin to send data to the device.
7.8.3.4. Tests of device connection to port
If the device connected to transmitter port generates periodical connection tests, these tests may be under LX20G control. To provide for that (after this option activation) enter text message and define frequency (in “Test presence every [s]” option). Additionally user may determine if text messages will be sent to server. If this option was not selected it is required to make sure that while the device connected to transmitter port is not sending text message to transmitter, LX20G sends to
server due message (See chapter 7.4 MONITORING -> Tests RS-232).

7.9. PHONE LINE

The device is equipped with an external, city telephone line. It may be used to transmit data from an alarm control panel. Additionally transmitter may collect information from an control panel using its a phone communicator, and next
transmit them via one of the available routes: PSTN / GSM / GPRS / SMS. The
mentioned below parameters shall be defined for proper operation of the device.
Page 48
LX20G_Manual_en_v2.1
Page 48 /
69

7.9.1. Phone line

This tab is provided to determine settings of telephone line.
7.9.1.1. Line connected to the control panel…
This feature allows you to select the default connection for the control panel.
After selecting:
o PSTN – terminals T1-R1 are connected to PSTN line, terminals T2-R2 are not
connected
o GSM – terminals T1-R1 are connected to GSM line, terminals T2-R2 are
connected to PSTN line
7.9.1.2. Routes of the transmission for the control panel
The user is able to determine which lines and what order will be used for subsequent failed call attempts to the monitoring station. Using the drop-down lists specify the order of routes of transmission: PSTN, GSM and GPRS / SMS. The algorithm works as follows:
I. When lifting the handset by the control panel transmission route is determined
by the following criteria:
a. If prefix code was used (see 7.9.2.1 Forcing the line) the route is
chosen to be a line which is assigned to the given code.
b. If prefix code was not used the line is chosen by the user-defined
sequence for which no failure occurred. For PSTN and GSM see 7.9.1.3
Page 49
LX20G_Manual_en_v2.1
Page 49 /
69
Criteria for lines failure detection for calls to the monitoring stations, for GPRS / SMS failure is determined by the current state of connection to the server.
II. After selecting the line transmission is performed:
a. For PSTN and GSM control panel obtains direct access to the
transmission circuit of PSTN or GSM.
b. For GPRS / SMS data are received and cached in memory of
transmitter, control panel receives a positive confirmation of transmission. Immediately after the transmitter relays data via GPRS / SMS.
III. Control panel gets a busy signal when:
a. Prefix code was not used at given moment and failure occurred for all
defined routes.
b. Prefix code was used and the chosen route is broken.
IV. If the transmission for the selected line: PSTN or GSM fails (a missed call, no
acknowledgment of transmission) error counter is incremented for the line.
7.9.1.3. Criteria for lines failure detection for calls to the monitoring
stations
This function determines the conditions under which the line should be considered as defective, and after what time attempt to re-use the line. It is possible to determine the conditions for the PSTN and GSM lines. Configuration is to set the following:
o Number of failed connection attempts by the control panel - after how many
unsuccessful attempts recognize the line as defective
o Attempt to return to the line after a time - the time from the moment a fault
occurs until the line can be reused
o PSTN line failure detection time - voltage drop on the phone line for a period
lasting longer than a defined minimum amount of time will be considered a failure of PSTN line
7.9.1.4. Allow incoming PSTN calls
If you want to allow incoming PSTN calls to the control panel (terminals T1-R1) with a PSTN line select this option.
7.9.1.5. Allow outgoing connections to PSTN
Select this option to allow outgoing PSTN calls from the control panel (terminals T1­R1) to phone numbers other than the numbers of the monitoring station.
7.9.1.6. Report off-hook condition
If a phone set is connected in parallel output of control panel communicator (to terminals T1-R1 of transmitter), picking up of a phone prevent from exchange of data between an control panel and a transmitter. There is possibility to control this
Page 50
LX20G_Manual_en_v2.1
Page 50 /
69
situation. Choice of this option result in sending a report to monitoring station if time of picking up the phone exceeds determined time limit.
Note: This operation of this device follows if it works with new protocol. If transmitter is to work in emulation PX mode (See chapter 7.2) the above mentioned situation will result in sending “No telephone line” message.
7.9.1.7. Report “intervals too long”
This option is being used if in configuration PSTN line- LX- Alarm Control Panel there are not other telecommunication devices. If such device will be connected and telephone number will be dialled (and a call will follow) after expiry defined time limit (counted since conclusion of last digit dialling) the transmitter sends a message. This operation prevents unauthorised installation of additional devices.
Note: This operation of this device follows if it works with new protocol. If transmitter is to work in emulation PX mode (See chapter 7.2) the above mentioned situation will result in sending “No telephone line” message.
7.9.1.8. Generate dial tone
Some alarm control panels require that during a receiver picking up a tone of dialling was actuated. To enable cooperation with a transmitter it is possible to make a transmitter to generate such tone.
7.9.1.9. Generate Call-ID for incoming GSM voice calls
Check this option to turn on generation of Call-ID signal for incoming GSM voice calls.
Note: To connect Jablotron's SP-02 speaker phone, please use following diagram (in parallel with SP-02 device and T1/R1 terminal connect 330kΩ/0,6W resistor).

7.9.1.10. Detect of-hook after
The default value for the delay detection off-hook 100ms. You can define your own delay value by choosing option "After" and giving the number in milliseconds.
7.9.1.11. The use of non-volatile message queue from the control
panel
Wybór tego ustawienia zabezpiecza pamięć ze niewysłanymi zdarzeniami od centrali
alarmowej przed skasowaniem np. w przypadku restartu lub utraty zasilania.
If you select „Enable non-volatile control panel messages FIFO”:
o The message received from the control panel and the time of message
reception are stored in non-volatile memory and next reported to OSM server.
o Command FLUSH=4, deletes only the events stored In the non-volatile
memory and generates the event EVENT_FIFO_FLUSHED.
If you don’t choose „Enable non-volatile control panel messages FIFO”:
o The message received from the control panel is stored in volatile memory.
The reception time is not stored. The message and sending time from the transmitter are reported to OSM server.
o Command FLUSH=4, deletes only the events stored in volatile memory and
generates the event EVENT_FIFO_FLUSHED.
Regardless of choosing the option Enable non-volatile control panel messages FIFO”:
o Każdy komunikat od centrali alarmowej jest raportowany do serwera OSM w
osobnej ramce / osobnym SMS.
o If in the memory are unsent messages from the control panel, the newly
dialled phone number will not be accepted.
o If in the memory are unsent messages from the control panel and the
memory will be disabled by changing the configuration, unsent events can be sent when the memory will be enabled again.

7.9.2. Prefix codes

7.9.2.1. Forcing the line
Using the prefix code the user has the ability to enforce the use of the denoted line for outgoing calls.
Possible parameters to configure:
o The prefix for the current (working) line – do not force changes in the line, it
is used as if prefix code were not used at all to override the line
o Prefix for PSTN – forces the PSTN line
Page 52
LX20G_Manual_en_v2.1
Page 52 /
69
o Prefix for GSM – forces the GSM line o Prefix for GPRS/SMS – forces the GPRS/SMS transmission
7.9.2.2. Time since last dialed digit after the number
Due to the multiplicity of numbering systems transmitter in order to determine whether the dialed number is complete starts to measure time from the last dialed digit. When the fixed number of seconds elapses transmitter considers the number as complete and tries to make the call.
7.9.2.3. Advanced -> Replacing outgoing prefixes for GSM line
The user can define what the prefixes automatically replace the other for outgoing GSM line. This function may be helpful if a dial is different for PSTN and GSM lines.
Editing procedure is as follows:
o Click on the button [Add] to add a new entry in the table above o For the field [From], [To] and [Number of digits of the dialed number]
provide the values
o Continue adding entries as needed (up to 5 entries) o If there is need to change order of the entries - use the arrow buttons on the
right side of the table
o With buttons [Delete] and [Delete All], respectively delete the selected row in
a table or all rows.

7.9.3. First and Second phone number

To provide for proper cooperation between a transmitter and a control panel in DTMF mode determination of some parameters is required. The below described functions are analogous to the both telephone numbers that may be saved in the device memory.
7.9.3.1. DTMF phone number
This is a number that has been saved in memory of an alarm control panel. If the panel is to transmit information on an event it shall dialled this number. Transmission of this information via GSM (GPRS) will be possible if this number will be identical as a number entered into the transmitter.
7.9.3.2. Handshake delay
This defines time after which a transmitter generates confirmation to an alarm control panel for correct phone number dial. Default setting is 2.0 sec. European Standard determines this value at 0.5 to 12.5 sec.
7.9.3.3. Protocol
Select protocol of data transmission used by an alarm control panel and that is acceptable for monitoring station. Available options: ContactID, Ademco Fast, and DTMF.
Note:
Page 54
LX20G_Manual_en_v2.1
Page 54 /
69
1) [Enable SMS sending] option may be used for all protocols that means that in case of no GPRS connection, data will be sent via SMS (if this mode will be accessible).
2) [Disable CRC checking] option may be used for ContactID and Ademco formats. Some control panel generate improper messages regarding a control sum for transmitted data, the device is not able to confirm collection of data, and as a result the panel tries to send them again (until execution of all determined trials). Select this option to avoid the above mentioned.
3) In case of DTMF protocol we gain access to specific parameters used to generate some control signals.

7.10. DIALER

This menu is related to communication in voice channel with ContactID (DTMF) or SIA (FSK).
NOTE: Please bear in mind that communication in voice channel can be set to work in parallel with GPRS/SMS transmission. It can be important issue for bill expense management.

Removes selected automatic temporary locks. Parameter is decimal number made from 9-bit word: A9 … A2, A1, where A1 means TAMPER, A2 INPUT 1 and A9 INPUT8. EXAMPLE:
RLIMIT=7 removes locks on inputs: TAMPER, IN1, IN2 RLIMIT=1 remove lock on input TAMPER
DT=YY/MM/DD,hh:mm:ss
Sets date and time in the transmitter; must be putted in a specific format (see the table on the left)
FLUSH=x
Flushes events buffer, where x is:
0 – primary dialer’s events buffer 1 – secondary dialer’s events buffer 2 system events history
All the dialer’s events are being saved always in the buffer 0, but in the buffer 1 only when the option “Both receiving
stations must acknowledge events” has been chosen.
Note: DESC, CMD, GETSTATUS, GETPARAM, GETCFG commands require separate SMS, so one command with only one SMS.

Logging to GSM
Description LED Diodes
Green (A)
Red (D)
GSM range = 8 GPRS mode
GSM range = 6 SMS mode
LED diodes (4), mounted directly on printed circuit, are purposed to show current condition of the device.

10.1. LOGGING TO GSM NETWORK

Once SIM card has been inserted into the device and power supply was turned on logging to GSM system follows.

10.2. GSM RANGE

Flickering of a green diode indicates GSM signal (1-8 flickers). Device operation mode is signalled with a green diode on during 2 seconds once the range was detected. If after signalling range diode will not flash for 2 seconds the device is in SMS mode. Range indication is interrupted during data transmission, and after sending of data again GSM range is being indicated.

During programming bootlader operating is indicated. If error follows during updating there is bootloader in device and another programming of device is possible.

10.7. SIM CARD ERROR

In case of SIM card problems, device states this with A and B LEDs

10.8. SYSTEM ERROR

During operating errors may follow. Any error is indicated by constant flashing of a red diode and mostly it means communication problem with modem or SIM card.

10.9. GSM SIGNAL QUALITY

Press the “GSM signal” button to get information about GSM/GPRS signal. Quality of
the signal will be shown on the LEDs A – D as follows:
a) if signal quality is less than 3 or there is no coverage of GSM network, then
LED D will be lit
b) if signal quality is greater than 3 or equal to 3, then LED A will be lit c) if signal quality is greater 15, then LEDs A and B will be lit d) if signal quality is greater 20, then LEDs A, B and C will be lit e) if signal quality is greater 25, then LEDs A, B, C and D will be lit
For two first points the transmitter might not work correctly.
