11 Internet remote access
The web site
www.GSMLink.cz
enables car alarm remote control (to
users) and setting (to installers). The following features are enabled:
To get internet access to an installed and powered car alarm you will
first be asked to register your car alarm on the first page. You will find a
unique registration code for your car alarm on the warranty card.
11.1 Reset GSM
If you need to disconnect and then reconnect the GSM module to the
GSM network, then use the command “MASTER RESET GSM”.
This does not affect any settings and is typically used for GPRS
activation or charging up credit. This command always requires the
Master code.
12 Central monitoring station communication
The GSM pager allows central monitoring via GPRS data protocol. The
central monitoring station (CMS) gets arming, disarming and alarm
information. It also regularly checks the communication link to the car after it is
armed. So if anyone tries to tamper with GSM pager communications, it will
indicate an alarm at the CMS.
13 Additional features
13.1 Car battery low voltage reporting
The GSM pager checks the voltage of the car battery. If the voltage is too
low (10V) it will notify users via an SMS message. This avoids complete
discharging of the car battery if you forget to turn off your lights etc.
13.2 Back-up battery
The car alarm can be backed up by a BB-01 battery. Thus, the car alarm
can keep sending information when the car battery is disconnected. Back up
time is provided for several hours. The manufacturer recommends regular
BB-01 checking once a year. The battery should be replaced every two years.
Low back-up battery voltage (below 4V) is reported to the user via SMS
(change the battery in this case).
13.3 Voltage drop detector
The built-in voltage drop detector can trigger an alarm if an electrical
device in the car is turned on while the car is armed. The sensor activates
10 minutes after arming (if enabled).
13.4 Entrance delay acoustic indication
The siren can indicate arming and disarming by beeps (see DIP
parameter setting). The siren will also indicate the triggering of a wireless
detector which provides an entrance delay (by a single beep). This way
you can be reminded not to forget to disarm your car alarm after you
open the garage door etc.
13.5 Limited number of alarms
If any sensor (input) repeatedly triggers alarms then this particular input will
be bypassed automatically after the third alarm (it will remain bypassed until
the car alarm is disarmed).
13.6 Car location
If your GSM provider offers a location service, you have to activate the
LOCATOR command after installation by the following SMS sequence:
MASTER LOCATOR xx…x
where:
MASTER
is installers code
xx...x
is provider’s sequence to obtain the position of
the car alarm SIM card (check with your GSM
provider for details)
After this sequence has been sent successfully once, the car alarm
memorizes the parameters and from this moment on you can obtain the
location of the car by just sending the instruction LOCATOR.
Note: GSM location service may not be available in some countries.
13.7 Pre-paid SIM card balance
It is recommended not to use prepaid cards in the car alarm. If you have
no other choice than prepaid cards, you can enable the CREDIT
instruction by following sequence:
MASTER CREDIT uuu..u xx yyy zz
where:
uuu…u
is the provider’s code to obtain the balance
xx
is the time period (in days) for regular checking
yyy
is the threshold level below which the balance is
reported to the user (TEL1)
zz
is the position of the first digit of the balance in the reply
SMS from the provider
•
After this sequence has been sent once, the car alarm will check the
balance automatically every xx days and if the balance is lower than
yyy the user will be notified (TEL1)
•
If the CREDIT instruction is enabled in the above way, the user can
also obtain the current balance by the instruction CREDIT
•
To disable the automatic balance checking set the time period “xx” to 00.
13.8 Roaming
If you travel abroad and your SIM card supports roaming, the car alarm
will work there too.
13.9 Siren activation
If you are searching for a stolen car, you can operate the siren
remotely by the following SMS instructions:
MASTER SIREN
turns the siren on for 10 minutes
MASTER SIREN ON
siren on permanently
MASTER SIREN OFF
siren off
To avoid misuse of this option, only an installer can switch the siren on.

1 Before installation
The CA-1202 should only be installed by a professional installer. The
manufacturer assumes no liability for damages caused by incorrect
installation or use of this product.
The Athos car alarm is suitable for cars with 12 V and negative grounding.
The main unit is designed for installation in the passenger cabin.
Disconnect the car battery
before starting installation;
study the car
owner manual first.
Avoid drilling into the metal parts of the car body.
Note:
Use only proper crimping tools and parts to make connections. Cut
all unused wires and insulate them properly.
The thin wire which leads directly out of the central unit is the remote
control and wireless detector antenna. The location of this wire affects the
communication range. Place the antenna on a suitable plastic surface so
that the other wires do not screen it.

3 SIM card insertion
1.
Make sure, that the
PIN password on the SIM is disabled
. You can
do this using a mobile phone (e.g. for NOKIA: MENU, SETTINGS,
SECURITY SETTINGS, PIN CODE REQUEST, OFF). If your SIM card
does not allow switching the PIN off, change the PIN to 0000.
2. Activate the SIM card
if necessary (see provider’s instructions),
ensure that it works
(by a mobile phone) and
record its phone number
.
3.
Using a thin pointed tool, press the colored button to release the SIM
cardholder.
Insert the SIM card into the holder
with the gold contacts
facing up and then reinsert the holder.
4 GSM antenna installation
DO NOT switch the power on before the GSM antenna is connected
.
The provided antenna is adhesive and should be attached to the car window.
The antenna should not be obstructed by any metal part. It is recommend to
install the antenna in a place where it is not easily visible (tinted part of the
window, behind the mirror etc.). If the car has an original GSM antenna installed, it
can be used (if the connector is different, use an appropriate adapter).
5 Initial powering-up of the alarm
Make sure, that the GSM antenna is connected, SIM card inserted and the
wire harness installed properly. Then connect the power (car battery). The
LED indicator will turn on and the siren will make a short chirp. Wait until the
LED turns off (up to 1 minute).
If the LED starts to flash, no GSM network was found. In such a case turn the
power off, remove the SIM card and try to use it in a mobile phone (at the
place where the GSM antenna is). Check also if the PIN protection is OFF (or
set to 0000). If the SIM card logs into network successfully, reinsert it in to the
alarm and repeat powering-up
.
After the alarm is powered, you have to:
a)
Select Mode 2
by command
RESET EN 2
b)
Enroll remote controls and wireless detectors
(if used)
c)
Set the programmable features
(phone numbers, DIP, SET, etc.).
These can be done by:
•
SMS instructions
– see table 6.1.
For example sending SMS:
MASTER
RESET EN 2
to the car alarm will select Mode 2.
•
Internet page: www.GSMlink.cz
is the most convenient way. To
register there you need to know the registration code (printed on the
warranty card) and the master code (factory default is MASTER).
•
SIM Card phone directory editing
(see table 6.1 for list of features
which can be programmed this way). After the initial powering-up a list of
parameters is created in the SIM card phone directory. If you then insert
the SIM card in to a mobile phone, you can set particular features (by
entering numbers to the created list). The entry for Mode setting is not
automatically created, but it is possible to make a new entry name:
RESET EN and number: 2. Data entered this way are read by the car
alarm after the SIM card is reinserted. For security reasons it is erased
after reading.
6 Enrollment of remote controls and detectors
Up to 4 RC-4x remote controllers and up to 8 JA-60 wireless detectors can be
enrolled to the car alarm (after Mode 2 is selected by the RESET EN 2 instruction).
