30 Universal Cellular Communicator
Bistable outputs
Open Collector outputs configured to be bistable may be activated in two ways:
1. By sending an SMS consisting of the pound (#), the User Code, the Control String (Control String can not have initial
blank spaces) and the characters =ON*, as follows:
#User Code*Control String=ON* (example: #123456*HOMELIGHT=ON*)
2. Using Caller ID: in this case, the output is activated without charge, since once the device has recognised the caller, it
activates the output without accepting the call.
An OC output configured as bistable can ONLY be deactivated by an SMS composed of the pound (#), the User Code, the
Control String and the characters =OFF* using the following syntax:
#User Code*Control String=OFF* (example: #123456*HOMELIGHT=OFF*)
The 6 digit user code is factory set to 000000; to replace it, see “Changing the user code” on page 32.
Monostable outputs
OC outputs configured as monostable can be activated in 2 ways: by SMS and using Caller ID.
SMS
Send an SMS composed of the pound (#), the User Code, the Control String (Control String can not have initial blank spaces)
and by the characters =ON*, =ON*TonU* or =OFF* using the following syntax:
#User Code*Control String=ON*
#User Code*Control String=ON*TonU*
#User Code*Control String=OFF*
The =ON*TonU* parameter sets the ON time from 1 to 86400 seconds, with a resolution of 1 second. The ON Time can be set
by means of the Communicator's Console software. Ton is the required value and U is the unit in hours (H), minutes (M) and
seconds (S), as shown in the following example:
To activate the output with an SMS using the programmed settings, remove the parameter TonU and leave the characters **.
(Example: #9876*HOMELIGHT=ON**).
If the monostable output is programmed incorrectly, the output will be activated for the Monostable Time On set in the
Console.
SMS Example Effect
#123456*HOMELIGHT=ON* Bistable activation.
#123456*HOMELIGHT=ON** Activated as programmed.
#123456*HOMELIGHT=ON*3600S* Active for 3600 seconds.
#123456*HOMELIGHT=ON*50M* Active for 50 minutes.
#123456*HOMELIGHT=ON*3600* Activated as programmed, the invalid ON time parameter is ignored.
#123456*HOMELIGHT=ON*000S* Activated as programmed, the invalid ON time parameter is ignored.
#123456*HOMELIGHT=OFF* Deactivated.
