6. PROGRAMMING WHEN USING OWN SIM CARD
If your own SIM card is used, programming proceeds via SMS commands.
For this purpose the communication module requires network connection.
6.1 PROGRAM MODE
If the PowerGuard is connected to an external power supply, it has
continuous network connection and is permanently in program mode.
A battery-operated Mobeye PowerGuard switches to the program mode
after re-inserting the batteries or pressing the button at the back for 5
seconds. While searching for the network connection the outside LED flashes
green and red. This process normally takes 10-30 seconds. When the
network has been established the LED will first blink green rapidly and next
stay green (or flashes 1 sec. on/1 sec. off in case the unit has not been
configured yet).
In this program mode the device is ready to receive commands and settings.
In a battery-operated unit a time-out occurs if no correct command is
received for 3 minutes, after which the communication module switches off
in order to save the batteries. In this low power mode the LED flashes once
per 3 seconds to indicate it is armed.
6.2 PROGRAMMING THE SETTINGS BY SMS
When using your own SIM card, the settings are programmed in by SMS text
messages:
1. Make sure the PowerGuard is in program mode (please refer to 6.1).
2. Send an SMS text message with the (security) code and the command.
3. The green LED blinks 3 times to indicate the successful configuration. In
case of an incorrect command, the red LED flashes 5 times.
SMS messages have the following content: CODE COMMAND:OPTION
Example: 1111 TEL1:0044772345678
- CODE stands for the security code, factory setting is 1111.
- Do not forget the space character between (security) code and command.
- The commands are case insensitive.
