    Description of GSM7i ........
  • Page 4: Description

    Internal antenna. • The GSM7i module differs from earlier GSM modules in that it can only be placed in ”J” meters, i .e . the Kamstrup electricity meters that have internal supply for the module . Application With the module GSM7i, the metering point is future-proofed since the module supports GSM, GPRS and SMS.

    2 .2 Start-up sequence 1. Immediately after start-up, all the Signal indicator diodes and the test diode switch on briefly (see the following figure). 2. The two Signal indicator diodes at the bottom flash until the module has been initialised correctly (approx. 1 min.). When the diode at the bottom stops flashing, the module has been connected to the network (after approx.
  • Page 10: Signal Test

    2 .3 Signal test Five LED’s have been mounted on the GSM7i module to indicate the current GSM signal strength. Immediately after starting up the module, it will try to connect to the GSM network, and the signal strength indicator will be activated (see paragraph 2.4, page 11).

  • Page 17: Mounting Status/Pulse Input

    2 .8 Mounting status/pulse input The status/pulse input can be used to read the status of a potential-free contact or as pulse input from e.g. a water meter. If it is used as pulse input, the pulses will be counted in the pulse register of the electricity meter. Note that the electricity meter must be configured to receive pulses before the incoming pulses are registered.
