SIM card reader and pushbutton
Insert SIM card into GSM-R5-Tx (see the picture). Proper insertion is indicated by
mechanical clicking noise. Push and release to remove the SIM card from GSM-R5-Tx.
Press shortly the button to change the output
Y2(OUT) status. Press the button for 5 seconds (or
longer) to switch the GSM-R5-Tx to sleep mode
(this feature is available when supplied from
battery only). Sleep mode is canceled when GSM-
R5-Tx is again supplied from power supply. When
the main power supply is connected, press the
button for 5 seconds (or longer) and the unit will
restart.
Mini USB connector is used for a configuration with SeaConfigurator.
Antenna is connected using SMA connector. GSM-R2-T is equipped with SMA female
connector. It means that antenna has to be equipped with SMA male connector.
Impedance is 50
Ω.
6.5
Accumulator
GSM-R5-Tx is equipped with a 3.7 V stand-by Li-Ion accumulator. After power failure,
the device is able to operate in normal mode for about a day (the duration depends on
how much it is used).The accumulator can be used for supply of inputs

Recommended connection.
7.
Configuration
GSM-R5-Tx is configured with SeaConfigurator either via the USB connector (miniUSB
cable) or through the GPRS connection. This configuration program can be downloaded
for free from
(search for „Configurator“) and install it on
your
PC.
GSM-R5-Tx is shipped with a factory configuration that meets the most common
requirements, so it is possible to use the device even without SeaConfigurator. Simply
send the first SMS from the main user's phone number under the
“
First time startup
”
chapter.
Some parameters be changed
via SMS, see chapter „Command List“.

GSM-R5-Tx Control
8.1
Control output by “ringing”
GSM-R5-Tx is set by the manufacturer to switch ON an output Y2(OUT) for 4 seconds
based on ringing from any phone number. This pulse is useful e.g. for opening of an
entry gate. Test this function by a call to GSM-R5-Tx
from your mobile phone (it’s
important to send a valid command SMS to GSM-R5-Tx from your mobile phone if have
inserted a “new” SIM card to GSM
-R5-Tx first).
GSM-R5-Tx rejects a call and then immediately generates a pulse on an output Y2(OUT).
8.2
Remote control via SMS
GSM-R5-Tx is controlled via SMS of the GMS network. Text SMS are in form:
PASSWORD space COMMAND space COMMAND
Commands are separated by a space and are not case sensitive.
Password
Password is the main security element in control of
GSM relay
5
. SMS with commands
will be accepted from anyone who knows the password. The password is a string of
digits (it can be any length from 1 to 20), Which the SMS message must contain, or
else it’s ignored. Because the text before the password is ignored, SMS messages can
also be sent from the SMS gateways. We recommend changing the password to
something different. Password can be changed either through SeaConfigurator or with
SMS message.
Default password is:
1234
Command
This part of the message defines the desired action of the device. Multiple commands
separated by a space can be inserted into one SMS message.
The command can consist of multiple parts. For example, when it comes to output, it
consists of its name „Y2“ a
nd an action (e.g. ON, OFF, etc.). If the naming of the output
is not specified, the output with the lowest sequence number is used (for the
GSM
relay
5
it is the socket). The
ON
and
Y2 ON
commands are therefore equivalent.
In addition, a parameter (e.g. pulse length, required temperature, etc.) may be given
behind the command. There must be space between the command and its parameter.
Most used commands (more in chapter “List of commands“)
Examples:
1234 ON
an appliance connected to output Y2(OUT) will be switched on
1234 Y2 ON
an appliance connected to output Y2(OUT) will be switched on
1234 OFF
an appliance connected to output Y2(OUT) will be switched off
1234 TEMP 5
set and activate the temperature regulator function to +5 °C
1234 PULSE 3600
output Y2(OUT) will be switched ON and than after 1 hour will
be switched OFF (Note: if an output is already switched on, it will
be just switched off after 1 hour)
Confirmation
If a
command message
contains a valid password (access code) the GSM-R5-Tx sends
back a confirmation message which informs if a command was accepted. If you don’t
want a confirmation message (e. g. when sending a command SMS from the Internet
GSM
gates) add a command “NOBACK”
.
Example:
1234 Y2 ON NOBACK
GSM-R5-Tx will switch on an appliance connected to
output Y2(OUT) but no confirmation message will be sent back.
8.3
Status message
The status message is send whenever the command message contains a valid password.
Example: 1234 Y2 ZAP
If it is not disabled the STATE message will be appended to the message about
execution. State message contains following information:
Status message example
Explanation
GSM-R5-Tx: Y2 ON SUCCESS
Command confirmation: to switch ON Y2(OUT)
Power=Powered
State of power(from battery or from source).
Temp=28’C
Actual temperature on a temp. sensor T1
is 28°C.
OUT=on
State of output Y2(OUT) is ON.
IN=on
State of input X3(IN) is ON.
Sig=58%
GSM signal level is 58%.
Note: If any input or output is disabled (by SMS or by
SeaConfigurator), it won’t be
mentioned in STATE message.
8.4
Macros
Built-in macros with variables
You can use macros listed in the macro list in the event text. These macros are used
when you want to create your own status message. In this case, be sure to cancel the
„state message reply“ option in the „General Settings“ section.
Examples:
SMS with text: „
Temperature is low,
[Y2].“ Will be sent as „
Temperature is low,
Y
2=ZAP.“
SMS with text „output is ON([A1N] is [A1V]).“ Will be sent as „output is ON
(TEMPERATURE is 18,1
°C).“, where „input name“ A1 is TEMPERATURE and „units“ are
in °C.
Macros in incoming SMS
If you need to simplify a regular repeating command or a summary of commands
(including even the parameters), create a macro. For example, create a macro: „FIRE“
with text „Y2
TEM
P 25“. If you then send an SMS with the text „FIRE“, output Y2 (OUT)
will be regulated by the temp. Sensors at 25 ° C.
Macros in sent SMS
For example, you can define the macro „N1“ with the text „My Station is Best in the
World“ to help you work on creating text in sent SMS. Then just use the text „[N1]“ in
the outgoing SMS.
