Using the Optional App 

Android and Iphone users can download an optional app called 

GSM-GATE

. This app performs 3 

main functions.. 

1) 

Speed dials your intercom when the trigger button is pressed. 

2) 

Sends pre-configured SMS messages to latch and unlatch the relay. 

3) 

Allow the user to check status like reception level and status of the output and input. 

 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Send the SMS as shown, and the unit will reply showing the status 
of the input limit switch (if used), and the relay.. 
 
This example shows that the input sensor is in OPEN state, and the 
relay is OFF. 
If the relay is latched, then the status will change to ON. 
If the input limit witch is closed, the status shown will change to 
CLOSED. 
 

TIP

: If there is not a physical limit switch fitted to the door or gate, 

then the status input will always show OPEN.
