VIERLING ® 3. Starting-Up ECOTEL The following points must be clarified when starting operations for the first time: • SIM card (card agreement or prepaid card) • PIN for the SIM card • Receiving conditions/ antenna location • Installation at the assembly location •... -
Page 12: Pins
VIERLING PINs ® When operating ECOTEL C6, there are two different PINs. The first PIN secures access to the SIM card (SIM-PIN) while the second PIN ® protects ECOTEL C6 from being used by unauthorized persons (SMS- PIN). 3.2.1 SIM-PIN ®... -
Page 13: Sms-Pin
VIERLING 3.2.2 SMS-PIN ® The SMS-PIN prevents unauthorized use of ECOTEL C6 over SMS. When the PIN identification function is activated, a PIN is required for controlling outputs and querying inputs, and it must appear at the ® beginning of every SMS sent to ECOTEL C6. -

VIERLING designated in the configuration. Otherwise, the control-command will not be processed. Furthermore, the CLIP function in the mobile phone (or fixed network phone) must be activated. TTENTION CLI-identification will function only if ones own telephone number is forwarded (CLIP). Not every telephone is capable of forwarding its own telephone number. -
Page 26: Status Query With Calls
VIERLING SMS PIN-identification serves as protection against unauthorized status query. If the PIN-identification has been activated for status query with SMSs, then control-SMSs must always begin with the SMS-PIN. Examples for control-SMSs: • • (SMS PIN-Identification) 1234,S=? Example for status... -
