6. Other device control parameters

NOTE: to enable the changes in the device you must press the button WRITE CONFIG.
NOTE: before starting configuration you must press the button READ or CONNECT. If these actions are not completed your parameters can be lost and you might need to restore factory default settings.

6.1 Temperature sensor


The system ESIM262 allows the user to receive SMS messages in the case of temperature deviation from the set values. In order to use this function it is necessary to connect temperature sensor and set the parameters accordingly.
Examples of usage: temperature control for greenhouses, houses, aquariums, server premises, refrigerators etc. over GSM network.

This group of parameters is used for setting maximum and minimum marginal temperature values; when these values are exceeded the device informs the user about it by SMS message. Marginal temperature values can be specified by one degree Celsius rate.

Max - maximum marginal temperature. The temperature is measured in degrees Celsius. Factory default value is zero.

Min - minimal marginal temperature. The temperature is measured in degrees Celsius. Factory default value is zero.

To make the system react to temperature deviations enter 0 value in both fields.

6.2 Setting the time and date


It is important to set correct date and time, so that the system can send reports at specified times.

Set clock - settings of internal clock. To set the internal clock of the device take the following actions:
1 - press the button Get PC time - the device will read the time of your computer.
2 - press the button Set clock - the time will be recorded to the device but it will not come into effect.
3 - (if you use a USB cable) disconnect USB data cable - clock settings will come into effect.

NOTE: when device power supply gets cut off and the backup battery is depleted internal clock is restored to the previous factory default value; to have the system operate correctly you need to reset the internal clock of the device accordingly.

6.3 Controlling C1 and C2 outputs


The system ESIM262 has three open collector output channels - C1 and C2. Using them you can control different electric appliances, for instance, pump, heating, lighting etc. When the controller C1 or C2 is activated, OUT1 or OUT2 (respectively) is connected with GND. To use all 10 outputs it is necessary to install an additional extension module.

Armed on - when this function is enabled the specified output is activated automatically only in the case if general object security is enabled (after security system arming); when general object security system is disabled (after security system arming) the selected output gets inactivated again.

6.4 Reading and saving the settings


To save the settings in the group Action press the button Write Settings. To read the settings that are configured on the device press the button Read Settings provided in the same group
