Overview
The CNS-4G Cellular Notification System has been designed as an early warning or
situational awareness device. The Gateway can be triggered by any of our Intellicam
Sensors as long as the ID is ID-1 or ID-2. You can program any Intellicam sensor for
ID-1 or ID-2. The CNS-4G comes standard with 2 each IR-904 Passive Infrared Sensors
that are pre-programmed with a
“Hard”
ID-1 and
“Hard” ID
-2. The Gateway can be
triggered by an unlimited number and type of sensor as long as they are an ID-1 or an
ID-2.
Once you have established your perimeter using one or more of our Intellicam sensors,
check to see if you are within communication range (covered in Chapter 4). Make sure
that you are receiving a good cellular signal (covered in Chapter 3). Now that you have
established all the necessary communications, your system is now ready to start sending
the pre-programmed SMS text messages to the appropriate
recipient’s
cell numbers. Up
to six different cellular numbers can be programmed in to the Gateway for simultaneous
notifications.
Depending on the location and cellular coverage, it can take anywhere from 30 seconds
to two minutes for the CNS-4G to connect to a cell tower and transmit the SMS
message. During heavy traffic times it can take longer, but the advantage of using SMS
text messaging is, the message will go through.
SIM/UIM Card Installation
The CNS-4G
supports normal SIM/UIM only, so if you’re using a Micro SIM or Nano SIM
card, you may need to use a Micro SIM or Nano SIM to Normal SIM adapter. Make sure
your Gateway is powered off, then use a needle-like object (such as a paper clip) to
push the button near the SIM/UIM card holder, it will eject out immediately. Insert the
SIM/UIM card into the card holder and insert the SIM and card holder into Gateway and
make sure it is seated securely. If the SIM/UIM card is not properly inserted, the
“Alarm
LED will illuminate on the Gateway.
Warning
: Never install SIM/UIM card when the Gateway is powered on!
Warning:
Be sure the antennas are connected and the SIM card is installed,
before installing the batteries or connecting to external power!
