SETUP AND TESTING 13
request is disabled from the SIM card, the GSM connection has been opened by your operator, the GSM
signal strength is sufficient in the area, and that the SIM card was placed properly in the SIM card slot
(you will hear a click when it is locked).
You can ask the GSM signal strength from the device when SIM card is in the device and power is
switched on (green lights blink) and cover is open (the device is in programming mode). Send ?
(message containing only a question mark) to your HCE+. The signal strength should be at least 10 for
text messages and 15 for multimedia messages, although 20 or more would be better. Use an external
antenna or install the central unit in a different place if needed.
3.19 Wireless extension
You can use wireless components with HCE+ if you have an extension module (available as an
accessory). The extension comes with its own installation manual. To start using wireless extension,
send the following message to HCE+ (no wireless smoke detector):
#WIRELESS BASIC
If you have a wireless smoke detector in the system, use command:
#WIRELESS FULL
4. SETUP AND TESTING
Now it is time for post-installation setup and testing. See the Trouble Shooting chapter in the User’s
Manual if you encounter any problems.
1. Make sure there is a SIM card in the central unit. Switch power ON and leave the cover open.
Wait 30 seconds for the HCE+ to start up. The unit’s status light starts blinking as it goes into
programming mode. If the light does not blink, make sure the PIN code request is disabled from
the SIM card, the GSM connection has been opened by your operator, the GSM signal strength
is sufficient in the area, and that the SIM card was placed properly in the SIM card slot. Leave
the cover open.
2. Make a test call to the unit to make sure it is connected to the GSM network. If the call is
connected, GSM connection is open and everything is ok. HCE+ answers with three beeps and
disconnects the call.
3. Select language with command LANG xx where xx is the language of your choice (see list of
available languages from the User’s Manual). This command initializes the unit and sets your
phone number in the first location of the phone directory. The HCE+ can be used only from this
phone number at this point. More users can be added later (see User’s Manual).
4. Put the cover back on and fasten it with screws. Start testing.
4.1 Testing
You can test the system by going through the following steps after you have selected language and put
the cover back on the central unit.
You can change the unit’s operating mode (is monitoring on or off?) by using text message commands
or by using the security keypad and proximity key.
