A new cellular roaming algorithm to support cases where the panel is successfully
connected to a network but GPRS connection has timed-out.
With the new roaming algorithm, in such cases the panel attempts to connect to a
different network.
Modem roam en: when selected, the panel uses the internal Cellular modem's
algorithm for roaming. (en) = enable
Roam disable: when selected, roaming is not allowed. Only the ‘Home’ network can be
accepted.
Manual roam en : when selected, the panel uses its own algorithm to select the best
cellular operator.(en) = enable
Lock network: when selected, the panel uses the operator defined in ‘Requested
Network’. (en) = enable
Specifies a preferred network for example Vodafone that the panel attempts to register
with. The signal strength must be above the Minimum RSSI value. Where a Requested
Operator is specified, the panel attempts to return to this network on subsequent
attempts.
Note: Contains an editable line to enter up to 6 numbers MCC (Mobile country code)
+MNC (Mobile network code)
Used to avoid certain networks, for example, when a high signal strength operator is
unreliable or the device oscillates between networks (country borders).
Note: Contains an editable line to enter up to 6 numbers MCC (Mobile country code)
+MNC (Mobile network code).
Define whether to use a 2G or 3G network or whether to enable the panel to use a 3G
network as first priority or a 2G network as second priority.
Options: automatic (default); 3G; 2G.
Define whether the control panel will stay continuously connected enabled, via GPRS
communication, or disconnect disabled (default), after each report session.
Some GSM Service providers tend to disconnect the GSM connection if the user has
not initiated any outgoing telephone calls during the last 28 days. To prevent from
disconnecting the GSM connection, you can configure the system to generate a keep
alive GSM call every 28 days sending a test message either to the first SMS number
(if exists) or alternatively first private telephone number.
Options: Disable (default) or Every 28 days.
Select the IP protocol used to transfer data over the internet/GPRS.
