ALARM SUPPORT

Alarm reporting is supported by group of different parameters. First section is used to define the relations needed for alarm to be triggered. The second section is used to report alarm.

11.2.1

IN Parameters

Alarm and reset input can be triggered in 4 different ways. The status of the input can either be normal closed (N.C) or normal open (N.O.) with positive (+ 12V) or negative (GND) voltage.

When you need the input feedback information it is possible to receive SMS when input returns from alarm to normal position. To receive return SMS use IN=4, 5 or 6.

⇒

IN = 0 – Normal Open – triggered with negative voltage (GND)

⇒

IN = 1 – Normal Close – breaking negative or positive voltage loop

⇒

IN = 2 – Normal Open – triggered with positive voltage (+ 12VCC)

⇒

IN = 3 – Input disable

⇒ IN = 4 = IN = 0 + input reset SMS

⇒ IN = 5 = IN = 1 + input reset SMS

⇒ IN = 6 = IN = 2 + input reset SMS

TN parameters

Telephone numbers for remote alarm reporting are listed as TN parameters. Remote alarm reporting on GSM-VAC4+ is done via SMS messages or VOICE call.

GSM-VAC4+ makes a voice call, send alarm notification SMS message or both. If the corresponding name ends with the letter “V” only VOICE call is made and if the name ends with the letter “M” only SMS message is sent.

MAIN and BATT parameter

GSM-VAC4+ can send an SMS message in case of the main power failure. SMS message is sent to user. You can also program how long the unit can stay without power before sending this message.

GSM-VAC4+ can control battery level and sends 3 SMS messages when following voltage level on battery is reached: 11.5V, 10.5V and 9V. It sends the “Low Battery” and battery level in volts SMS message together.

The low battery level can be detected when the unit works without main power supply.

Should the battery power rise again above 11,5V GSM-VAC4+ sends an SMS message with the following text: “Low Battery restored”.

NOTE

The “Low battery” event is send when the GSM-VAC4+ operates only with a backup battery and it is not connected on the Main Power Supply.

Parameter MAIN determines time out control after which the GSM-VAC4+ will send “Main Power

Lost alarm”. Time can be set between 1 and 9999 seconds.

Parameter BATT determines time out control after which the GSM-VAC4+ will send Battery power level notifications. Time can be set between 1 and 9999 seconds.

OS parameters

GSM-VAC4+ device has 4 open collector outputs and each of them can be programmed in a different way: as a bi-stable or mono-stable (pulse) output. The programming time is in seconds

and can be set from 2-9999 seconds.

Typical connection for the output:

⇒ OSX = 0 – Selected output is disabled

⇒

OSX = 1 – Selected output is in bi-stable toggle mode

⇒ OSX = 2 – Selected output is in mono-stable pulse mode (pulse time is set to 2 seconds)

Where X is one of the output numbers from 1 to 4.

IT, AR and IB parameters

With these parameters user define the number of alarm events that can be triggered in chosen interval before the systems goes in bypass mode (blocks sending alarm events to telephone numbers).

IT – parameter defines the interval (in seconds) in which maximum AR number of alarm can be triggered.

AR – parameter defines the maximum number of alarms trigged in IT time

20

Alarm SMS reporting

The default message text is English, but it is possible to change language with LNG parameter. In addition user can customize a short SMS message text for each alarm input.

Each message is built from 3 parts and user can write the first (User Location) and the second

(alarm event) part of the message. Unit adds the third part (alarm event description) automatically.

Language of the 3rd part may be changed by LNG parameter. The message is stored in the SIM phone book so you should add any number for correct operation.
