Notices

Emergency Calling

This GSM Gateway must be used with Customer
Equipment that routes an emergency call to
triple zero (000) via other Network interfaces.

Guarantee

The GSM-Route BRI is supplied with a 1-year
return to base warranty which covers any defect
in manufacturing and design. No other
warranties whatsoever are given. If a faulty unit
is required to be returned within the terms of the
warranty contact your local dealer. TelecomFM
or its agents shall accept no liability for any error
or damages of any kind resulting from the use of
this document or equipment it relates to. No
responsibility is assumed by TFM or its agents
for the use or reliability of the GSM-Route BRI
when used in a situation or with other equipment
not supplied or specified by TFM. The wording
in this document may change from time to time.
Please refer to the web site www.telstrom.net for
the latest release.

Intended Use

The GSM-Route BRI is intended to be
connected to the customer’s ETSI standard basic
rate ISDN terminal equipment (PBX) and
optionally to an ETSI standard basic rate ISDN
network (NTU).

The GSM-Route BRI will auto detect if an ISDN
circuit is present. If GSM-Route BRI detects that
an ISDN circuit is not available, the unit will be
configured for this setting.

The GSM-Route BRI will Auto detect Point to
Point or Point to Multi-Point on connection of an
ISDN circuit.

The GSM-Route BRI will direct outgoing calls
either over the Mobile Network or the ISDN
network according to its configuration. The
configuration it is shipped with is to direct all
mobile prefixes to the GSM network. In order to
change this, refer to the programming section.

Incoming calls from the GSM network will be
directed to the customer’s terminal equipment.

Power Failure

In the event of loss of power to the unit, the
ISDN lines connected through the GSM-Route
BRI, will connect the customer’s terminal
equipment by means of a “Metallic” by-pass
mechanism.

Mobile Signal Failure

In the event of the loss of the GSM network the
unit may be configured to reroute the calls over
ISDN.

ISDN Signal Failure

In the event of disconnection from the ISDN
network, calls which were routed across the
mobile network will continue to do so.

Power Supply

The GSM-Route BRI operates from a nominal
100-240v. AC supply, 47-63 Hz.. The Power
Supply Unit (PSU) supplied with the GSM­Route BRI is fully compliant with: UL1950,
TUV EN60950, BS7002, CSA22.2. Ensure that
you use the power supply reference part no.
KWM24F-OX01, as supplied.

Warning: Do not attempt to work on the
GSM-Route BRI with the mains connected.

Safety Instructions

Failure to follow all instructions may result in
improper operation of the GSM-Route BRI
and/or the risk of electrical shock. All
installation personnel should consult the
information contained in this manual before
attempting to install this product. All installation
engineers should adhere to the following
instructions:

1. The GSM-Route BRI should only be installed

or maintained by qualified PBX personnel.

2. The GSM-Route BRI should only be installed

according to the instructions in this manual.

3. Do not attempt to connect the GSM-Route

BRI whilst the associated PBX is in use.

4. Do not attempt to install the GSM-Route BRI

during an electrical storm.

5. Use caution when installing or modifying

ISDN lines when connecting to the GSM­Route BRI

6. Connect the power supply lead to the GSM-

Route BRI before switching on the power.
(see figure 2)

7. Ensure that the GSM-Route BRI is bonded to

Safety Earth Ground using the earth cable
provided. (see figure 2)

Positioning

•

on, or near an exterior wall,

•

close to a window

•

on the top floor of the building.

• at

least 1 metre away from other sensitive

electronic equipment.

•

mount antennas vertically with a minimum

distance of 330mm away from each antenna.

(see figure 1)

The signal strength will be degraded if you

install the GSM

•

on walls that contain a large amount of

wiring, steel, or metal construction material.

•

on walls with unusually thick masonry.

•

in metal buildings or in rooms with large

areas of metal.

•

for a GSM base station. After a short

while they will flash according to signal

strength.

Go off hook and access the t

unit. Dial a GSM number (the unit has

been pre programmed with all GSM

prefixes to route via GSM) and you

should hear a tone “Diddley Doo”!

Installation and User Guide

Mounting the GSM-Route BRI

1. Neatly locate and mount the GSM-Route BRI

using the supplied fixing template.

2. Open the cover by pushing the two clips in at

the bottom of the case.

3. Connect the Safety Earth Ground.

4. Connect Antennae(s) (see figure 1)

5. Insert SIM cards into the SIM holders (see

figure 2)

6. Power up the unit. When the power is

connected the amber LED 3 will be lit and the
unit will initialise.

• When the GSM Module(s) are connecting

to a network its status LEDs 24 & 25 will
produce long flashes (600ms/600 ms
On/Off).

• If the GSM module has no SIM card

inserted its status LEDs 24 or 25 will flash
‘SOS’ on its associated LED.

• When a GSM module has logged onto a

network its status LEDs 24 & 25 will
produce short flashes (75ms/3s On/Off).
(refer to figure 3)

• The signal strength on Module 1 is

displayed as LED 18 and Module 2 is LED

19. (refer to figure 3)

• If the Basic Rate ISDN interface is

activated the status LEDs 20 & 21 will
produce short flashes (75ms/3s On/Off).

• When the Terminal Equipment Interface is

activated the status LEDs 22 & 23 will
produce short flashes (75ms/3s On/Off).

Testing the GSM-Route BRI

Go off hook and access one of the trunks
connected to the BRI Route GSM and:

1. Make an outgoing test call over module 1.

Once Connected the Red Status LED
corresponding to the channel being used will
come on. The Green Status LED for module 1
will come on showing that the call has been
routed correctly. A confidence tone will be
heard at this stage.

2. Make an outgoing test call over module 2,

once connected the Red Status LED
corresponding to the channel being used will
come on. The Green Status LED for module 2
will come on showing that the call has been
routed correctly. A confidence tone will be
heard at this stage.

3. Make an incoming call to each GSM module.

Installation Scenarios

There are four scenarios for installing the BRI
Route GSM depending on your specific scenario

A.

Installed from the TE port to the PBX. The
PBX handles the least cost routing of calls.
(refer figure A.). LEDs 22 & 23 should
blink red (refer figure 2.)

B.

Installed as scenario A, but only the ISDN
clock/sync is received from the ISDN
network to the NT port. In this setup voice
calls are NOT carried from the ISDN
network to the unit and usually the NTU on
the wall has two mirrored TE ports, one
going to the PBX and one going (Providing
clock) to the NT port on the BRI Route
GSM. (refer figure B.) Note: requires
setting to Track Mode, refer to setting
ISDN Synchronisation. LEDs 22, 23
should blink red (refer figure 2.)
Note: When the GSM Route BRI is
functioning normally, and it detects that
there is no ISDN connection on the NT
port, it then uses an accurate internally
generated clock. This accurate clock
cannot be synchronised with any ISDN
connections if it is not connected to them.
When the GSM Route BRI is forced into
Track mode, you can plug an ISDN “NT”
or S0 trunk connection into the NT port of
the GSM Route BRI. This will then use the
clock synchronisation from the ISDN NT
Network connection (ignoring the B and D
channel information).
