In case of the detection of an intruder, the Mobeye Argos will send an SMS text message to your phone(s). The Mobeye Argos will also call the phone numbers in order to be sure the message is not missed. It is also possible to set on the siren sound.
Insert the four lithium 3,0 volt batteries (CR123). When replacing the batteries, all settings remain unchanged. After inserting the SIM card and the batteries, the Mobeye Argos will perform a self test taking 1 minute. During the test, the light is red.
The light turns red shortly and an indication tone is started. This repetitive tone will last during the exit delay of 60 seconds. As soon as the acoustic signal stops, the Mobeye Argos is active. - If the code is entered incorrectly 3 times, the indicator turns red and the Mobeye Argos will be blocked for 10 minutes.
4. INTRUDER ALARM: BASIC FUNCTIONS The Mobeye Argos settings can be changed via the keypad. First the method of programming is discussed, next the explanation of the settings. This chapter describes the settings for the ‘all-in-one’ basic system. Advanced options like using the external inputs, outputs, or external power supply can be found in chapter 7 and further.
Press “21” -> light turns green Press “OK” First the light flashes red (interval ca. 1 sec). As soon as the light turns green, the Mobeye Argos is able to receive SMS-messages. To program the custom text, send an SMS in following structure: 1111 NAME:myowntext - ‘1111’...
No entry indication is set as the factory default. It is possible to hear an indication beep during the entry delay. This can be used as a reminder that the Mobeye is in active mode. It is also possible to just let the LED indicator flash a few times, as an indication for the user.
The built-in temperature sensor may have a standard deviation of the actual temperature. In this case, the deviation will be similar at all temperatures. It is possible to correct the temperature deviation in the Mobeye Argos. In the SMS setting summary, you see the reported temperature. If a correction is specified, it is processed in the displayed temperature;...
Press “512” Press “OK” The Mobeye Argos now switches on the GSM module and searches for all available networks. It also checks the network strength of the SIM card provider in the device. As soon as the GSM network is found, the light will turn green.

Warning In the event of a weak signal, the Mobeye Argos can still be used, but there is a risk that messages cannot be sent or will be received with a delay. In case of no signal, it is advised to try a different network.
(like an alarm or incoming call). And although the Mobeye Argos is designed to run on batteries, it is possible to use an external power supply in order to report power failure and to remotely control the system.
8. INPUTS External sensors can be connected to the inputs. Upon closing (or opening) an input, the Mobeye Argos will send an alarm message to the set alarm numbers (factory default: SMS and call). Replace white 2) Insert the 2 wires of an external...
8.6 PIR SENSOR ON/OFF If the inputs are in use, it could be useful to de-activate the integrated movement sensor (PIR). The Mobeye Argos will then cease activating alarms when movement is detected until this function is reinstated. As factory settings the PIR is ON.
9. EXTERNAL POWER SUPPLY Although the Mobeye Argos is designed to run on batteries, it is possible to use an external power supply (9- 24VDC). In this mode the module is always in connection with the GSM network. The advantage of external power is the longer battery lifetime, to receive power failure messages and the possibility to perform remote actions, like arm/disarm, switch the outputs, ask status reports and to program it via SMS-commands.
9.4 POWER FAILURE DELAY TIME The power failure delay time defines the time that the power fails before an alarm is initiated. If the power is restored within the delay time, no alarm is sent. The delay time can be set between 0 and 60 minutes. As default, the delay time is set to 1.
10. OUTPUTS The Mobeye Argos has two outputs (O1 and O2).These relay outputs can switch external devices. The maximum load is 2A/30V per output. Output 1 is free to use for an external device. Switching the relay can be done in several ways: after an alarm, upon arming, upon disarming or remote (via SMS or call).
The reason why output 1 is switched can be configured. Choices are: switch by remote control (RC), switch when arming the Mobeye Argos (ARMED), switch when disarming the Mobeye Argos (DISARMED), switch upon an intruder alarm (alarm on PIR, IN1 or IN2), switch upon a temperature alarm (temp). For remote control (switch via SMS-commands, please refer to 9.5), the senders’...
Please contact Mobeye for more information. It is also possible to connect the Mobeye Argos to an alarm receiving centre (ARC), if this ARC has an SMS receiver. Please contact Mobeye for more information.
Enter “21” Press “OK” First the light flashes red (interval ca. 1 sec). As soon as the light turns green, the Mobeye Argos is able to receive SMS-messages. After five minutes there is a time-out and a beep is heard. Leave the program mode earlier by pressing “OK”...
14. REPORTS AND LISTS The programmed settings and the Mobeye Argos status can be requested as SMS-text message via the keypad or SMS-command (for SMS: be sure the unit is in program mode). 14.1 STATUS REQUEST The status can be requested via ‘CODE menu 501 OK’ or by sending an SMS with the content:...
