How to use the 2G/3G Beam Alarm

Once you have positioned the beams, installed the simcard and programmed the
numbers the system is ready to use.

The GSM Wireless Beam Alarm has two modes, alarm mode and auto mode.

Alarm mode: 

you have to arm the alarm manually each time when required via a text

message command or via the keyfob provided.

Auto mode:

 the alarm is always armed. You should choose which mode is more suitable to

your application.

These modes are selected by sending the following text messages

#

Mode

=

1

Auto Mode

#

Mode

=

2

#

 

Alarm Mode (default)

The default setting is alarm mode, to get an alarm notification when the beam is triggered,
you will need to arm the alarm first via text message or key fob

Arm Via Text Message

To set the alarm to ON you will need to send the text message

#

ALARM

=

ON

This will activate the alarm

#

ALARM

=

OFF

#

 

This will deactivate the alarm

It is important to remember that once the alarm has been triggered you will need to reset
the alarm by sending the text command 

#

ALARM

=

ON

#

 to reactivate the alarm or activate it

using the key fob.

Arm Via Key Fob

The key fob works best when used with the siren provided as you will get the audible alert
whenever you arm or disarm the alarm.

Press button A on the key fob 

Arms the alarm and siren will beep twice

Press button B on the key fob 

Disarms the alarm and the siren will beep twice

Again it is important to remember that when the alarm has been triggered you will need to
reset the alarm using either the text command (above) or by using the fey fob.

In auto mode, the key fob and text message are disabled, the alarm is always
Active , after the alarm is triggered it will automatically reset  to active after 20 seconds

In the event of a power loss the unit will remember if it was armed when power is restored

How to use the Relay Output

The relay has been programmed to trigger the siren for 60 seconds in the event of an
alarm activation. Once the text message and call has been received you can stop the siren
sounding by pressing B on the key fob.

If you do not require the siren to sound in the event of an alarm activation but require it so
that you hear the key fob activation you can turn the siren off by Dipswitch 1.

Dipswitch 1 ON = Siren is turned ON

Dipswitch 1 OFF = Siren turned OFF

If you require the ability for the relay to be independently activated like older versions of
this alarm, please contact us on 01798 861346
