Setting up system for the first time:
Please ensure the SIM card does NOT have a PIN number or is locked has been
ACTIVATED with the network provider, insert into SIM slot on the back (see
page 4) and power the unit up.
When the unit is first powered ON a mobile (cell phone) number must be set for
initial programming. This phone number is called the “Initial Owner”.
You must wait for the LED to be slowing flashing (EVERY 3 seconds) before
sending any commands. Please wait a few minutes, as the unit will set autoband and other details for the country.
IMPORTANT:
For all text commands, spelling

Set Battery Alarm Trigger Voltage
Command:
Where XX.X can be between 8 and 30 volts
The system responds with:
The low voltage alarm has been set to XX.X volts and the alarm has been reset
This system monitors the battery by calculating the average value of the supplied voltage over
the previous 1 minute period. Once this average has been detected to be below the set value
for the programmed time it sends a text message to inform all masters. The inclusion of the
running average helps protect the system from detecting inaccurate readings during periods
of increased load.
If no value (XX.X) is set the system responds with:
Because no value was specified the voltage alarm has been set to 11.5 volts and the
alarm has been reset
If the value (XX.X) is outside the settings the system responds with:
Because the value is out of range the voltage alarm has been set to 11.5 volts and
the alarm has been reset

Detailed explanation of Input delays:
On Delay:
This delay is used when the input turns ON:
Example : If input1 has an ON delay of 10mins, when Input1 turns ON the unit will wait 10
minutes then send the following text message “
If the input turns off before the programmed time delay expires the input is reset and the time
starts back at zero.
If the input is linked to an output it will also state the linked output has also been turned on
Off Delay:
This delay is used when the input turns OFF:
Example : If input1 has an OFF delay of 10mins, when Input1 turns OFF the unit will wait 10
minutes then send the following text message “
If the input turns off before the programmed time delay expires the input is reset and the time
starts back at zero.
If the input is linked to an output it will also state the linked output has also been turned on

Appendix Two: SMS-2 Application Notes
Simple Shore Power Monitoring
n inexpensive and effective means to monitor your vessel’s shore power connection is to purchase a
12v DC power supply as typically used to power cordless phones or video games - the type normally
available at retailers and electronics suppliers. This unit is plugged into a conveniently located 120/240v
C outlet on-board your vessel and wired as shown in the diagram below (fig. 1). Name this Input Shore
Power using the Command on page 10. If shore power is lost, the SMS-2 will send a text message to all
“Masters” saying “Shore Power has turned off”. To avoid any nuisance text message’s caused by a
tripped breaker, or someone temporarily using your power outlet, you should set the
Input (a 15 minute delay is appropriate for most situations). To set the delay, simply send a text
command “Change Shore Power off delay to 15 min” as shown on page 11.

Intruder Alarm Systems
The following configurations define possible solutions for intruder alarms. Like all
other alerts provided by the SMS-2, these should be disabled prior to you entering
the premises. This is easily accomplished by issuing the text command:
when leaving the premise, simply issue the text command:

When the alarm has been triggered you can reset it by sending the txt:
If you want to connect a siren and/or flashing light to output1 then:
Send command text: Link Sensor to output1
Send command text: Change output1 to Siren
When the unit detects movement you will receive a text message and the siren and/or flashing
light will turn On.
“The input Sensor has been turned on and is now latched. Linked output Siren has also been
turned on”
When the alarm has been triggered you can reset it by sending the txt:
or the siren can be turned off by sending the command: Turn siren off
Note: The command: Reset sensor will still need to be sent to reset the system even though the
siren has been turned off (to unlatch the sensor Input).

Door and Window Alarms
Alarms sensors for doors and windows generally consist of magnetically held
switches. The contacts are normally-closed (NC). If a door/window is opened the
circuit is opened generating an alarm. An alarm is also generated if the wire is cut
between the sensor and the monitoring system opening the circuit. This prevents an
intruder from defeating the alarm system by merely cutting a wire. The wiring
diagram for the window/door switches is similar to the motion detector and the same
basic commands are used to set up the motion detector.
SMS-2
Input 1 or 2
Send command text: Change input? to Door Sensor
Send command text: Make Door Sensor latching
Send command text: Make Door Sensor active open (sensors are normally closed and go open
when activated)
When the unit detects movement you will receive the following text message:
“The input Door Sensor has been turned on and is now latched”
When the alarm has been triggered you can reset it by sending the txt:
If you want to connect a siren and/or flashing light to output1 then:
Send command text: Link Door Sensor to output1
Send command text: Change output1 to Siren
When the unit detects an intruder you will receive a text message and the siren and/or flashing
light will turn On.
“The input Door Sensor has been turned on and is now latched. Linked output Siren has also

Air Conditioners / Heating
Different brands of Air-Con’s use different means of remotely turning On and Off.
Type1:
If the brand requires that the Output to be turned On and left On then you can use
either Output 1 or 4.
eg. Turning the output relay On will start the Air-Con and turning the relay Off will
stop the Air-Con.
1. Change the Output name as per page 12:
Naming Inputs and Outputs and Changing Names
4. Turn output On as per page 15:
Turn an Output ON or OFF
4. Turn output Off as per page 15:
Turn an Output ON or OFF
Type4:
If the brand requires that the Output be pulsed On and Off to turn the Air-Con On and
pulsed On and Off to be turned Off. The SMS-8 has a special command for this type.
1. Connect the Air-Con to Output1
2. To turn On send : Air On (Output1 will pulse On and Off trigging the Air-Con On)
3. To turn Off send: Air off (Output1 will pulse On and Off trigging the Air-Con Off)
Type4: Heating
If the brand requires that the Output be pulsed On and Off to turn the Heating On and
pulsed On and Off to be turned Off. The SMS-8 has a special command for this type.
4. Connect the Heating Input trigger to Output1
5. To turn On send : Heating On (Output1 will pulse On and Off trigging the Heating)
6. To turn Off send: Heating off (Output1 will pulse On and Off trigging the Heating
Please Note: This special command only works with Output1
