1. INTRODUCTION
Transmitter GPRS type PX200N is purposed for data transmitting from electronic
security systems of facilities and other technical devices with the use of GSM
mobile phone network.
Data transmission follows via GPRS or SMS.
Due to many settings a transmitter may be applied with many systems of various
requirements. The device is basically purposed for data transmission from security
systems installed in detached houses and in small business facilities.
Additionally PX200N transmitter has got input for connection of an alarm control
panel’s phone communicator. This provides for a cheap system of data
transmission.
Communication with a monitoring station follows by GPRS/SMS mode. This device
provides an opportunity to send text messages to private mobile phones.
An advanced encoding methods like a 256 bits encoding key and AES (Advanced
Encryption Standard) provides for security of data transmission. As a result
reception of this transmission is possible with OSM.2007 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 Transmitters
Configurator” software
o Remotely : - via GPRS connection (or SMS).
- via SMS commands
- via transmission on CSD channel

because it can cause permanent damage of output.
Don’t connect power supply when GSM antenna isn’t connected, because it
can cause permanent damage of GSM/GPRS modem.
After careful connections examination a battery may be connected (to +AKU and
GND terminals) and then power may be switched on for transformer and
programming procedure of transmitter may begin (See chapter 6).
PX200N_Manual_en-1.11i7 Page 10 / 58
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.2007 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.2007 system).
b) full configuration of device with remote programming (GPRS transmitters
configurator and OSM.2007).
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.2007)
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.2007 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>.
PX200N_Manual_en-1.11i7 Page 11 / 58
Exemplary SMS is as follows (if we use public network and provide server address
as IP):
1111█SERVER=89.123.115.8█PORT=6780█APN=general.t-mobile.uk
█
UN=█PW=
Where:
█: space character
PX200N_Manual_en-1.11i7 Page 12 / 58
5. OPERATION
A device maintains communication via GSM-GPRS network. If any problem follows a
device automatically switch to SMS mode (if this mode has been programmed
before-See chapter 7 “Programmable parameters”). 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.
Note :
Each device input (from IN1 till IN8) 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.
PX200N_Manual_en-1.11i7 Page 13 / 58
6. CONFIGURATION PROGRAM
6.1. INITIAL REMARKS

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
PX200N_Manual_en-1.11i7 Page 16 / 58
Click on [Add] button to confirm settings. Connections shall be saved (and inserted
in table). From this time on program shall enable wires connection with device and
reading, and saving of parameters in memory will be possible.
6.3.5.2. Remote connection
As provided above the device and software makes for complete configuration with
GPRS link or CSD channel. This programming mode requires definition of linking
parameters.
GPRS linking
Activate file in Main menu and select Connection function (or after clicking on
icon on fast access bar) and click on GPRS tab to carry out configuration of this
mode.
On screen the following window shall appear:
Define:
Name of connection e.g.: Remote
Select name of analyzer e.g.: Primary
Enter analyzer address e.g.: 87.128.125.8
Enter port on which analyzer operates e.g. 7000
Click on [Add] button to confirm settings. Connections shall be saved (and inserted
in table). From this time on program shall enable remote connection to device and
reading and saving of parameters in memory shall be possible.
Notice: The following parameters: analyzer name, analyze address, port
relate to settings of OSM.2007 receiver of monitoring system. Remote
programming is available only if above mentioned device (or software) is
used.
CSD connection
Activate file in Main Menu and select Connection function (or after clicking on
icon on fast access bar) and click on GSM Modem tab to carry out configuration of
this mode.
On screen the window shall appear where it is possible to define:
PX200N_Manual_en-1.11i7 Page 17 / 58
Name of connection e.g. Remote CSD
Serial port where GSM modem is connected (e.g. Wavecom Fastrack)
PIN code of SIM card installed in GSM modem e.g. 1111
Serial port parameters: amount of bytes/sec. (e.g. 115200), data bytes (8),
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 transmitter 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, transmitter must enable to pick up data calls (see
7.5.2 GSM modems authorized phones)
Programming with CSD is also possible if OSM.2007 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.2007 Operation
Manual) it is possible to use link via OSM. It is possible if device is not connected to
the OSM.2007 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\PX200N_20000
Catalog
PX200N
_20000 contains all files in respect of
PX200N
with factory number
of 20000 programming. The name contains date and time of operation and its type
(saving/ reading). Files have cmi extension.
6.3.7. File -> Exit
Finishes program operation.
PX200N_Manual_en-1.11i7 Page 18 / 58
6.3.8. Operations -> Read
Function reads data saved in memory of GPRS module. Exchange of data follows on
port selected in section “Select Connection Type” (See below description of option
”Configuration”). Correct reading is confirmed with message on a screen. Data
downloaded from device may be saved on file (see clause 6.3.3) and use for other
devices.
To use this function it is necessary to define type and parameters of connection.
E.g. for local connection the following view is displayed:
where:
Connection kind - serial port to which module is connected
Access code- service code of transmitter
Detailed description of connections configuration is included in clause 6.3.5.
6.3.9. Operations -> Send
This function is analogical to the above one, at the same time it enables data saving
into EEPROM module. Correct saving is confirmed with message on a screen.
