5. Optional liquid cell 12.0V battery: Can be plugged into G031 for backup power. Installation 1. Download and install the APP https://www.quark-elec.com/downloads/APPs/ 2. Select G031 location: location must be indoors and not exposed to water or high humidity. 3. Connect the relays outputs (if required): check relay setup for whether you want relays in normal open (NO) or normal closed (NC) position.
Quark-elec Manual Introduction The G031 series remote controller is a versatile device which can be attached to many electronic devices in homes, offices, plant or wherever required. It includes three independent relay switches and two digital alarm inputs. It allows operators to control/monitor remote temperatures or equipment using SMS (Short Message Service) via the GSM network.
Quark-elec Manual Enclosure The enclosure is made of IP56 Insulation Class 2 plastic. External dimension: 145 x 90 x 41 mm. 5 of 28 https://www.quark-elec.com 2018...
Quark-elec Manual 4. Power connections 4.1. 12.0V DC power connection The G031 module can be supplied by 12.0-24.0V DC power. Connect a 12.0V DC power supply to the power input screw terminals and switch on the power supply. The red system LED will flash at 1 second intervals once the system has finished initialization.
Quark-elec Manual 5. Status LED’S The device has two working LED’s to notify the user of its operations. Blue Network LED – Blue LED will flash at start up as it looks for a network signal. Once a signal has been found the LED will flash much slower, every 3 seconds.
Quark-elec Manual 6. Preparing SIM card Please ensure: The SIM must operate on the GSM (2G) network. Most network providers provide 2G cover, check with your supplier. There is credit on the SIM (we recommend automatic top-ups) The SIM is not PIN protected ...
Quark-elec Manual 6.3. Registering additional SIM controllers You can add up to three additional control mobile phones. When adding additional numbers to the unit you must enter them in the correct format used by the Network service provider of the SIM that you have entered into the G022.
Quark-elec Manual 8. Alarm function connections G031 has two external alarm input connectors and various inputs can be connected to them. For example, door/windows sensors, smoke alarms, carbon dioxide detectors, motion sensors, thermostats, temperature/wind detectors, and moisture detectors. Using these sensors/detectors, G031 can be setup as a protection/alarm and response system.
Quark-elec Manual Relays The G031 has three digital output relays for connection to the equipment to be controlled. The relays can be setup in normal open and normal closed positions. Depending on the relay setup you choose will determine how the G031 operates. For example a cooling setup must be setup using Normal closed. For a heating setup it must be setup in normal open.
Quark-elec Manual 9.3. Relay working mode (relay 1 and 2) The G031 allows for two different working modes: self-lock control latching control Self-lock allows for the usual function of the relay where a command from the operator or the device to change is needed.
Quark-elec Manual 9.4. Latching mode settings Working in latching mode, operators can configure G031 with different action times for Relay 1 and Relay 2 by setting the delay time jumpers. action timer set as:12 seconds action timer set as:9 seconds...
Quark-elec Manual 10. Temperature monitoring & control The G031 has three attached temperature sensors each with a corresponding relay. They can be used to control three individual zones via GSM /APP. These industrial standard sensors provide typical accuracies of ± 0.5°C over the −55°C to +125°C (-67°F to +257°F) temperature range. Its stainless steel probe head makes it suitable for any wet or harsh environment.
Quark-elec Manual 10.2.Relay wiring and temperature settings example There are two ways to set temperature ranges using either the APP or GSM text commands. This chapter provides examples for both methods. APP Temperature Settings: To use the APP to set temperature ranges; navigate to ‘OTHER’ in the bottom right hand corner of the APP.
Quark-elec Manual 11. App on Android The G031 APP provides a touch sensitive, user friendly interface that will write the text messages for you and send them from your mobile device to control the G031. The app allows for up to two G031 devices to be controlled from a single mobile operator.
(for 2 different G031 devices). Enter the telephone number of the SIM card that you inserted into the G031 where it says ‘Device 1’ in the app. If you have 2 QK-G031 devices then you can enter the second SIM card number where it says ‘Device 2’.
Quark-elec Manual 11.2.Register SIM cards G031 allows one mobile phone to function as the main controller and up to 3 additional phones to function as control terminals. The following interface allows the operator to register, delete and check the SIM card numbers: ...
Quark-elec Manual 11.4.Check relay working mode G031 has three individual relays which support two working modes, self-lock and latching control. When working in latching mode, the relay will action a command from a user determined amount of time (depending on the time setting on the jumpers on the board. See chapter 11.4) and then reverts back to the previous state.
Quark-elec Manual 11.6.Control panel The control panel provides the main operating interface for turning relays on and off and setting timers. By clicking ‘ON’ in the app, a message will be sent to the G031 turning the specific relay on. This is the same for the ‘OFF’...
Quark-elec Manual 11.7.Alarm log The alarm log page will show all the alarm alerts and when they were activated. The app will store these logs within your mobile device. Alarm log: once alarms have been triggered this page will become populated with your alarm trigger times.

Quark-elec Manual Disable Temperature alerts: This command stops temperature alerts being sent to the controllers. The G031 will still automatically initiate the corresponding relay once Temperature range is exceeded. However the notifications for temperature changes will be disabled. Enable temperature alert: this command enables temperature alerts being sent to the controllers.
Quark-elec Manual 12. Command and response SMS list Remember that all SMS text commands must always be sent using CAPITAL letters. Do not add spaces or any other characters. Function Command Note Register SIM cards Register main SIM card 88888888 Register the main mobile terminal with G031 module by sending ‘88888888’...

Quark-elec Manual Timer Set time on QK-021/022 SThhmmss# For example, by sending ’ST153000#’, the Where hhmmss is the operator set G031 time as 15:30:00. G031 will return the message ‘Time setup successful’ to current time accept this setting. If the operator sends the wrong time format, G031 will return the message ’Time setup failed’.

Quark-elec Manual Temperature senor Check the temperature DQWD G031 will reply with the sensor temperatures on the sensors and the relay on/off setting temperatures similar to the following; ‘Ch1:25[15to27], Ch2: Off [21to32], Ch3:26[25to36]’.This sample message indicates that, sensor 1 is measured as 25℃, and relay 1 is set to switch on at 15℃...
Quark-elec Manual Mains/Battery power supply Mains power dropout If the main power supplier drops out, G031 warning will automatically switch to using the backup battery and the following message will be sent to the operator: ‘Main power has been lost’. G031 is now powered by battery only.
