PROGRAMMING
GsmAlarm-420 parameters can be divided into two groups. First group – user phone numbers which
are stored in SIM card memory. User phone numbers can be programmed by using standard mobile
phone of any type (see Ch. 5.2.1) or remotely, sending SMS message with the phone numbers of
users to GsmAlarm-420 (see Ch. 5.2.2).
Second group – parameters, defining system operation algorithms, names of protected zones and
programmable outputs. These parameters are stored in the memory block of GsmAlarm-420 device.
The parameters of the system can be programmed by sending SMS message (see Ch. 5.3). It is
recommended to change the SMS password at the end of programming (see Ch. 5.4)
If GsmAlarm-420 is used for protection, five user numbers can be programmed: ALRNR1, ALRNR2,
ALRNR3, ALRNR4 and ALRNR5. These users can arm/ disarm the system, calls will be directed and
SMS messages will be sent to these users. If only one user exists, he must be programmed under
ALRNR1. GsmAlarm-420 will send SMS messages to this specific user in case of main power
supply loss or if an unknown number calls the system. If armed mode is turned on or off by turning
the switch ON/OFF GsmAlarm-420 dials and SMS messages are also directed to the first user. Other
four user numbers are not obligatory.
In case GsmAlarm-420 is used only for gate control it is not necessary to program ALRNR1-
ALRNR5. Up to 250 user numbers, with the possibility to control the outputs C1, C2, and BELL with
a short call, can be programmed in this case. Any name can be ascribed to user. Output operation
mode has to be M04 or M05 (see Ch. 5.3.2.1).
After programming of user numbers - programmed system parameters, names of inputs and outputs
(see Ch. 5.3).
5.1.
USER NUMBER PROGRAMMING WITH STANDARD MOBILE PHONE
Insert SIM card into a standard mobile phone. Enter user name into SIM card number book using
capital letters e.g. ALRNR1 and corresponding phone number. We recommend enter the number with
international code. (E.g. +370....)
If GsmAlarm-420 is used for gate control, number of extra user numbers can be as large as fits into
the SIM card (up to 250). Any name can be ascribed to user.
Important:
It‘s important to note that while programming SIM card memory should be active (not phone
memory!). Otherwise the user number will be recorded in the mobile phone memory used for
programming and the SIM card will remain empty.
After having programmed all user numbers, it is recommended to check whether SMS service centre
number is programmed. Simplest way to check: send any SMS from the phone used for
programming. If it is sent successfully we can be sure that SMS centre number has been programmed
correctly. Otherwise, program SMS centre number following the mobile phone’s user manual. SMS
centre number can be learnt from GSM service provider.
After completion of programming and checking whether SIM card PIN code request is switched off,
take the SIM card off from the mobile phone.
