SeNd Technology GSMWhitebox2 User Manual

GSMWhitebox2
Step 1:
Grab a registered SIM card and make sure it
has some credit. Make a note of the phone
number as you will need this and can't just
guess later! There is a shiny new SIM in the
box in case you need one. Note: Your SIM
card needs to support 2G GSM networks and
Three SIM cards are not compatible.
Step 2:
Open the GSMWhitebox2 case taking care
with the antenna cable and insert the SIM
card. (Make sure it's the correct way round)
Step 3: (look at the diagram overleaf)
Connect the external power supply but don't
turn it ON yet, check the polarity first, and
connect any volt-free inputs signals you are
using between the COM and IN1, IN2 etc, also
connect any device you wish to switch
remotely using the relay output (eg gate
opener). Don't forget to feed external wires
through the glands as it will make it easier to
put the lid back on. Right last thing to do...
connect the antenna, just screw it on and
position it somewhere where you think the
best signal is (usually high up away from metal
stuff)
Step 4:
Turn the battery switch ON then plug the
power supply in to allow the battery to fully
charge for a few hours. The light on the unit
should come on... and we are looking for a
blue flashing light to prove we have a signal
and a steady ready green light too....
Step 5:
Complex configuration time....only joking it's
all done by sending easy SMS message to the
unit...
Add a recipient for the alert messages:
Send the following SMS message to the SIM
card number you made a note of earlier:
#1=07777007007#
Change this mobile number to the one you
want to send the alert message to as this is
James Bond's private number and he's busy!
You can add up to 3 recipients – just change
the #1 to #2 for the second recipient and #3
for next – easy eh?...
Delete a recipient:
Send the following SMS message:
#1=DELETE#
(Can you guess how to delete #2 and #3?)
The GSMWhitebox2 has 4 inputs and will send
the default INPUT 1 OPEN and INPUT 1 CLOSE
messages by SMS to all three recipients when
triggered but you can change the message
text to relate to the actual thingamabob
connected. Here is how you do that...
Send the following SMS (these are examples):
Input 1 opening message
#M1A=Low Water Level#
Input 1 closing message
#M1B=Water Level OK#
To change the alert text for the other inputs
just change #M1 to #M2, #M3 and #M4
(Oh you have a maximum of 21 characters per
message including spaces).
Fun fact: The inputs have to be closed or
opened for 4 seconds before they send the
messages – this is to stop you getting
nuisance messages as this can be really
annoying.
Do you want to know more things you can do
with the GSMWhitebox2? Grab a cup of tea
and turn the page as there is a whole list of
other commands to mess about with ....
