USB
The Gate is equipped by USB port for direct control of GSM
module Siemens TC35 (or MC35 or MC39 for GPRS) via
virtual COM port. The Gate you can further use ordinary GSM
modem for data transmission, internet connection or for SMS
messages.
When unit is working as GSM modem then is busy for voice
connection. When you pick up the line you will hear busy tone.
The unit is monitoring data transmission by modem. The data
transmission can not be permanent therefore the unit stays in
data mode 10 seconds after finishing of data transmission.
Then is going back to Voice mode (calling).
The same is when you are calling over unit. It is busy for
data transmission.
The optional sw supply to unit for sending and receiving
SMS messages is SMS mail. It is working under Outlook,
Outlook Expres, Opera etc. And you can work with SMS as
with normal e mails. ( see manual for SMS mail). It works in
batches and allows programm communication interval (1 to 99
minutes) to Mini Gate for sending and receiving SMS. Due this
we avoid situation that unit is permanentlky blocked by data
mode for voice communication.
Further functionality of USB is monitoring Mini Gate
operation. It is possible record even incoming calls includes
time and CLIP, signal strength, etc..
