4 Installation
guide
4.1 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.
Connecting the GSM antenna: the antenna can be connected to the FME-M
connector. 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. The antenna should be
placed (outside the box, in case of installing the unit into a metal box) where the
measured GSM signal is the highest possible.
4.2 Putting into operation
Disable PIN code request and voicemail on the SIM card placed into the module.
Enable caller identification and caller ID sending services on the SIM card at
the GSM service provider
(a few types of SIM cards do not have these services
enabled by default).
Check the SIM card to be placed into its case properly.
Check the antenna to be fixed properly to the GSM Pager3 Z6.
Check the wiring to be done according to the wiring instructions.
The device can be powered up. If the module is used as an auxiliary transmission
device besides an alarm control panel, then make sure that power supply is
sufficient at the load of both the control panel and the Pager. The quiescent current
of the module is 100mA, however it can reach up to 500mA during communication
.
