and press the "Send" button in the App.
●
Once you hear a double beep from the sounder you know the unit has
successfully received the configuration message. If the configuration
SMS was not received within two minutes you will hear five short beeps
from the sounder to signal that the setup did not complete successfully.
● If the configuration completed successfully you will receive a
"Setup complete" SMS on the mobile device that was used to send
the configuration message to the unit.
●
The unit will then enter Run mode where it will begin monitoring the external
temperature for alarm breaches. This can be confirmed by pressing the
status button for one second and checking that the LED's operate as per
the LED Flash Sequences.
Please note that the unit will not respond to button pushes once the setup
sequence has started.
The length of time required for the unit to register on the mobile network can vary
and is dependent on the unit having sufficient signal. If the unit is unable to register
within two minutes it will exit the setup attempt. This will be indicated by five short
beeps from the sounder and five red LED flashes when the status button is pushed.
Sometimes the unit may not be listening for SMS messages when the configuration
SMS is sent. This could be due to delays inherent in the GSM network such as
network outages, over subscription, routine maintenance work, message centre
technical issues etc. If a setup attempt does fail you can simply repeat the setup
process. If repeated attempts to setup the unit are failing then you should check that
available signal strength is sufficient and there are no known network issues that
EL-SMS-2G-TP / TP+ / PROBE-G USER MANUAL
could be causing the problem.
If a setup attempt failed because the unit did not receive a valid configuration SMS:
1. If the unit was not previously configured the unit will enter standby mode
again. When the status button is pushed it will display five red LED flashes
showing that the last attempt to configure the unit failed.
2. If the unit was previously configured it will send a "No SMS Rxd" notification
to the mobile phone numbers that were previously configured to receive
"Summary" group notifications. The unit will then go back into Run mode
using its previously configured settings.
If the unit is configured and operating in Run mode it should be noted that making
a new attempt to configure the unit will stop it monitoring temperature. If the setup
does not complete successfully then it will revert to run mode again, however, the
following parameters will have changed:
● Summary messages will be delayed by up to five minutes.
● Temperature delay counts will be cleared.
●
Low and high temperature alarm history will be cleared.
●
Minimum, maximum and average temperatures will be reset.
● Any pending battery low or summary notifications will be cleared.
