REMOTE COMMANDS
If enabled, it allows you to interact with the control unit with GSM remotely using a telephone
line or SMS messages. The control unit must be fitted with an active SIM Card, without PIN
code.
Warning: if you use a prepaid SIM, make sure that it has not expired and that it has sufficient
credit. If you do not use the GSM network for a long time, the network operator may have
deactivated voice calls and/or SMS services.
It is recommended that you test the GSM and the credit at least every three months
Please refer to the "troubleshooting" table for details about possible faults.

SMS Commands
In order to accept SMS commands, the number placing the call must be included among
those stored in the central unit, and obviously must not be hidden. If the number is not
included in the list, or is hidden, the central unit will ignore the request.
Privileges to operate the central unit are guaranteed using the same ID-password system
used to perform authentication on the central unit keypad. All commands require
authentication, with the exception of status requests and the scene.
Level 2 users can send SMS commands.
Commands are sent using coded SMS messages, to which the central unit replies with a
response SMS or clear confirmation, unless it has been specifically instructed not to send a
response.
A separate SMS must be sent for each command.
The general structure of the command is:
[command] [what] [mode] [user + PIN]
Command

Arm

Zone name
Home-mode
Away-mode

Scene # (1-10)
Status
The answer/confirmation SMS is as follows:
Zone A (*) Away-mode
Zone B Away-mode
Zone C Home-mode
Zone D Home-mode
- The star (*) indicates a zone anomaly: the detail of the anomaly is explicated in the
central unit or by connecting to free@home;
- Up to 4 zones, the control unit sends 1 SMS;
- Beyond the 4 zones, the control unit sends 2 SMS;
- The technological zone (24h) will not be listed as it is always active.
When an unknown or incorrect SMS is sent, the control unit answers with an example SMS of
the correct syntax, as follows:
Example:
Arm ZoneA Home-mode 111111
Disarm ZoneA 111111
