Function
It is possible to establish a cellular connection to the system using a GSM modem. This application is intended
for mobile use.
It is also interesting to trigger a call in case of an alarm with this application. The GSM modem provides a dis-
crete input for this, which can trigger e.g. a short message (SMS) (depending on the network provider, it can also
be possible to send a fax message).
Different applications can be performed using the software LeoPC1. These applications include:
• Configuration
• Visualization with data logging
• Remote control (start and stop, transferring the set values for real power and generator power factor)
• Transfer standard values to and from the harddrive
Preconditions for this Example
• GCP with CAN interface (X1/X5)
• GW4B/RS232 LDP
• Wireless modem INSYS GSM 4.0 with antenna (www.insys@insys-tec.de)
• SIM card with data transfer enabled (to be enabled by the GSM provider)
• PC or notebook with Windows OS 98SE, NT, ME, 2000, XP with external analog modem
• Application software LeoPC1 version 3.1 or higher
• Configuration files available (*.cfg, *.asm, *.opt, ...)
• FAX/SMS receiver for receiving alarm messages
