Signal Strength Test 

LEDs SS1 and SS2 provide a signal strength indication. Signal strength is indicated as shown in 
Figure 15

Roaming SIM option 

Secure units with software versions K20P60A20P62 and above will support a Redcare 
Roaming SIM. 

A roaming SIM will allow the unit to connect to another GPRS network under the following 
conditions. 

  Failure of registration with the current cell base 

  Failure of receipt of an expected routine GPRS poll from Redcare’s ESP within the 

expected time.  

  Failure of acknowledgement to a new alarm 

A unit with a roaming SIM will look for a GPRS network with better than -75dB signal strength at start up. 
Signal strength LED (SS1) with briefly flutter each time the unit attempts to roam to another network.
