The external power supply and battery status is show by the blue LED (see also
LED
indicators
).
PLEASE NOTE!
While you are handling with the 230 VAC power be aware to fullfi ll all national
and international security standards as required.
If you need to switch off the device it is not enough to unplug the external
power supply unit, as in this case it will be still powered by the internal battery.
To complete switch off the unit you have to unplug the external PSU and the
Reset button
The reset button has two different functions:
Short activation
The actual alarm will be resetted.
Long activation (10 seconds)
The system will be complete resetted and restarted. All programmed data will not be
deleted.
Putting into service
After connection of the external power supply the device will fi rst check the SIM
card. If no card has been installed, or if it is broken or cann't be recognized by
the unit, the red LED will start to fl ash quickly. In this case the SIM card has to be
changed.
If everything is OK the device will start the initialisation procedure and login to the
provider. This can take some time about 30 to 60 seconds. During this time the red
LED will fl ash quickly. After succesful login the red LED will fl ash slowly.
Battery
The bulid in NiMH battery is continously tested by the Helpy GSM. If it will dein-
stalled or fail the device will rise an appropiate alarm. The fi rst time this procedure
will take place 6 hours after fi rst activation. During the procedure the battery will
be discharged over a load for several hours. If after the test the battery capacity will
be below a defi ned level an appropiate alarm is rised. The discharging test will not
take place or will be interrupted if the device is missing the external power supply.
Furthermore the battery is protected against deep discharge. The battery should
be changed anyway all 2 to 4 years depending on the installation enviroment and
usage. In case of substitution only the same or a equivalent battery must be used to
avoid damage on the product.
PLEASE NOTE!
The battery should be changes in any case after 7 years.
