Overview Of System; Site Survey; Sim Card; Power - AES global Cellcom Prime 5AB Manual

Please read this entire manual before attempting to install this system.
This system should only be installed by a professional automatic gate installer or access control
specialist dealer.
It is recommended that the system be set up, configured, commissioned and tested on a
workshop bench before taken to site for installation.
Before installing this system, you need to be sure that there is good mobile GSM cell coverage in
the area it is to be installed. It is recommended that you conduct a site survey, and check
reception on the site for a GSM network. If reception is poor in the area, then this system is not
recommended.
You will need a SIM card in order to use this system. It should be a regular voice and SMS text
SIM card and capable of running on 2G/3G service. Do not use a data only SIM, as this is only for
tablets and will not work in the unit.
TIP: Most technical calls received are due to installers using CAT5 or alarm cable to power
the unit. Neither are rated to carry enough power (2 amp peak). Please use following
cable...
Up to 2 metres (6 feet) – Use minimum 0.5mm
Up to 4 metres (12 feet) – Use minimum 0.75mm
Up to 8 metres (24 feet) – Use minimum 1mm
Using insufficient power cable thickness will cause excessive stress on electronic components,
and therefore void the manufacturer's warranty.

To avoid such problems, it is recommended (and is good practice) to locate the power supply as
close to the transmitter as possible. This avoids power cable noise and interference and enhances
the lifetime of the product.
