b) Product Status and Mode
The product has the following modes:
“Alarm Enable”:
This mode is entered by the text message command “ALARM ENABLE”, pushing and holding the left button and, depending on configuration,
e.g. via a call. Whether or not the alarm is active can only be seen by a status text message.
Only in this mode can the product send text messages independently and without any customer interaction, and perform a recall - depending on
configuration. This only takes place when an activated alarm source recognises an alarm incident (vibration, PIR, microphone, etc.). Only in this
case, all phone numbers in the device phonebook (not that of the SIM card) will receive the corresponding alarm text message.
“Alarm Disable” (regular mode):
This mode is also designated the “regular mode” that is entered after the product is switched on. In this mode, GSM costs may only arise when
customer interaction triggers it. The product only sends out text messages when a text message with the correct PIN was received first. The
device will only call on direct command anymore (button,...) from the customer. The product then also cannot trigger an alarm.
Call (incoming):
The product’s reaction to an incoming call is defined by the function “INCALL”. The basic setting is rejecting the call to save energy. To be able
to use the product as a phone, for example, the “INCALL” function must be set in the mode “CALL”. For more information on this, see the
corresponding chapter.
USB connection:
While a USB connection is active (i.e. with data communication to the PC), the GPS-receiver cannot be used.
For a passive USB-connection, in contrast (e.g. when connecting the device to a USB mains adapter), the GPS receiver remains active at all
times. The remaining functions are not affected by any USB connection.
c) Notes on Use
• There is no prescribed usage position.
• When using the USB or jack socket, observe that there is enough place for the plugs. Lateral forces on the plugged-in plugs can lever the
sockets from the PCB and thus cause irreparable damage, loss of warranty/guarantee!
• To ensure the device function, choose a usage site where the GMS network reception is as good as possible.
• The setup site should be protected against overheating of the device, excessive moisture and dust.
• The product should be taken to a site where object vibration can be measured (for use of the vibration alarm).
• The product must not be subject to continuous strong vibrations (vibrating machines, direct motor/chassis contact).
• The product is not protected against weather and therefore must be installed inside.
d) Firmware Update
A firmware update is performed via the USB interface at a PC with Windows operating system. For this, the PC software for the product is
needed that can be found in the download area for the product at www.conrad.com.
• New firmware versions are a voluntary service by Conrad Electronic SE and its partners and mainly serve product maintenance. There is no
legal claim to this.
• Performance of a firmware update is connected to a certain risk. If the transmission is interfered with during the update process, this may
cause the module to no longer function (including update function). In this case, the customer must return the product to the customer service
with the note “FULL FIRMWARE UPDATE”. The costs for a firmware update must be assumed by the customer. Whether any costs arise and
how high they are is indicated in a previous cost estimate.
