6 Installation guide
6.1 Mounting
•
Test the GSM signal strength with your mobile phone. It may happen that the signal
strength is not sufficient in the desired mounting place. In this case the planned
installation place can be changed before mounting the device.
•
Do not mount the unit in places where it can be affected by strong electromagnetic
disturbances (e.g. in the vicinity of electric motors, etc.).
•
Do not mount the unit in wet places or places with high degree of humidity.
•
The wires connected to the contact terminals should not be longer than 3 meters!
•
Connecting the GSM antenna: the GSM antenna can be fixed in the FME-M socket
found on the panel. The antenna supplied with the module provides good
transmission under normal reception circumstances. In case of occasionally
occurring signal strength problems or/and wave interference (fading), use another
(directed) type of antenna or find a more suitable place for the module.
6.2 Putting into operation
•
Disable PIN code request, voicemail and notification in SMS about missed calls on
the SIM card placed into the module.
•
Enable caller ID sending service on the SIM card at the GSM service provider.
•
If caller identification is used, this service must be enabled on the SIM card
placed into the module (a few types of SIM cards do not have this function
enabled by default).
•
Check the SIM card to be placed into its case properly.
•
Check the antenna to be fixed properly to the
Compact-GSM module.
•
Check the wires to be connected as instructed by the wiring diagram.
•
The device can be powered up. Make sure that the power supply is sufficient for the
load of the module. The quiescent current of the module is 50mA, however it may
increase up to 200mA during communication and relay control.
