    Furthermore you will be able to remote interact by sending appropriate SMS that will pilot the opening/closing of the outputs. Pocket AL I/O has been designed to operate with the networks of all the GSM operators both directly and in roaming mode.
  • Page 9: Installation

    Before going on with the configuration, it is necessary to complete the hardware installation of Pocket AL I/O. Connect the sensors to the input contacts of Pocket AL I/O and then connect the eventual devices to be remote piloted to the output pins. When Pocket AL I/O receives the configuration messages, it will store the current situation of that input as “non alarmed”...

If you want to control the 230V bulb through the open collector output of Pocket AL I/O, you must connect to Pocket AL I/O an external relay and a protection diode for the internal transistor. In this case it is necessary to build a little external circuit inserting a 1N4007 or 1N4148 diode and then to connect a proper relay.
  • Page 11: Relay Outputs

    Pocket AL I/O supports both active and passive 4-20mA sensors. Passive Sensors Pocket AL I/O manages passive sensors that have a maximum power of 12V. Connect the sensor between pins 3 and 4 or between pins 5 and 6 of the 6 PIN terminal board.

    • At the first power on check the status of Power and Status led. • After few seconds Pocket AL I/O will register to the GSM network and the Power led will start blinking; the Status led will give the indication of the signal.
  • Page 15: Configuration

    Pocket AL I/O is setup with simple configuration commands through the RS232 serial interface (terminal emulator set at 115200bps, 8, N,1) or through SMS messages using a standard mobile phone, to the SIM card number inserted in Pocket AL I/O.
  • Page 16: Description Of Configuration Messages

    When sending the SMS, the GSM network may communicate to the Services Center that the message has not been delivered: in these cases Pocket AL I/O will go on with the next number. Once the user list is over, it will wait for 1 minute and it will try again with the unsuccessful numbers.

    GSM service. In these cases the GSM operator may disable the device from the GSM cell to which it is registered (ETSI 070905) cutting off Pocket AL I/O. For this reason Pocket AL I/O makes an automatic search of the GSM network. It is also possible to set the periodical update for the registration to the GSM network.

    1)GasAlarm OFF 3.5. ANAlOG INPUTS CONfIGURATION Pocket AL I/O can read the values of two analog inputs where it is possible to connect analog sensors that operate with 4-20mA power. To each single contact you can associate an input mnemonic name, 2 threshold values that can define 3 or 2 zones and the detection interval.
  • Page 22: Sms Alarm Messages

    3.6. OUTPUT CONfIGURATION Pocket AL I/O is equipped with four digital outputs (Open Collector) and two relays outputs to remote interact after an alarm signalling, for example to open or to close a tank valve after the detection of exceeded level.
  • Page 23: Outputs Status Modification (Sms Messages)

    After Pocket AL I/O receives the command, it will modify the output current status into the opposite status for the period defined by x. When the period defined by x is over, Pocket AL I/O will automatically restore the previous status. Pocket AL I/O will notify the output current status after the automatic restore, then after x seconds.
  • Page 24: Backup Battery Configuration

    Pocket AL I/O factory configuration (default) foresees that when there is no power the device immediately turns off (disabled battery). The user must set the battery management as needed. Pocket AL I/O can be set so that when there is no power, the battery becomes operative for a set time (from 1 to 60 minutes).
  • Page 25: Standby Management

    For particular needs you can also leave Pocket AL I/O always in Standby status. In this way, as you will not be automatically informed, you can verify the inputs status by remote querying Pocket AL I/O with the #TEST# message described in the next paragraph.

    STATUS: OFF = Pocket AL I/O disabled in Standby condition Pocket AL I/O will send the current status of all the set contacts. If the requested information cannot be inserted in a sole SMS, it will be necessary to send multiple SMS. The contacts that haven't been already set will not be inserted in the configuration.
  • Page 29: Management Through Ring

    4. MANAGEMENT THROUGH RING Pocket AL I/O can be set to perform some actions when it receives a phone ring. This operating mode, if compared with the SMS one, is free of charge as Pocket AL I/O will manage the action associated to the phone ring without answering the call.
