Configuration and operation
You have to first configured it to be able to enjoy the product’s full functionality. The configuration
is done by means of SMS commands sent from a mobile phone to the device (or to the SIM
card number used).
Once configured, you can activate, deactivate and query the device or change its settings from
anywhere with SMS commands.
a) General notes
This product is not a conventional alarm system. Equipped with GSM and GPS, it features
increased functionality and is thus more complex. Next we will discuss the key points that you
should know and follow when using the product.
•
This manual describes all the functions and much more.
•
All SMS responses used here are just examples. The actual situation can be different. The
examples are used to illustrate what information in which format and in which notation you
can expect.
b) Operating mode
The alarm system knows only two operating modes:
“ALARM ENABLE”
Only when this mode is activated, the product can send alert messages autonomously and
without interaction.
This alert is sent only if an activated alarm source detects an alarm event (vibration, voice or
noise or a person moving near the motion sensor PIR). Only in this case, all phone numbers
listed in the phone book of the device (not the SIM card) will receive an alert notification.
“ALARM DISABLE”
In this mode, the device is passive and no monitoring function is running. The alarm system can
send SMS but it cannot trigger an alarm.
