2 2. Description and Installation This section describes the 2N® EasyGate product and its installation.
Description 2.1 2.1 Description 2N® EasyGate consites of GSM gateway in white plastic cover, removable antenna and cables for connecting to phone set and PC 2N® EasyGate ’s status is indicated by LED diodes on its front side. All possible states are described in the following figure. Figure 2.
Description 2.1 Telephone Line Tones – Operational Tones The GSM gateway sends tones to the telephone line to indicate the line status. The tone frequency is 425 Hz. Dial tone continuous or morse A EasyGate is registered to GSM network and ready to receive dialing. Ringing tone The called subscriber's telephone is ringing. The GSM network transmits this tone. Busy tone The busy tone is transmitted in any of the following cases: The SIM card has not been installed.
Description 2.1 PUK tone Enter the PUK code. This tone is transmitted upon repeated wrong PIN entering attempts. SIM card is blocked. Telephone Line Tones – Programming Mode Tones confirming/refusing the values entered are transmitted during telephone line based programming. Each tone has a different melody. Confirmation Confirms that the service password or parameter number entered is correct and has been accepted.
Before You Start 2.2 2.
Before You Start 2.2 It is impossible to operate EasyGate on sites exposed to direct solar radiation or near heat sources. EasyGate is designed for indoor use. It may not be exposed to rain, flowing water, condensed moisture, fog, etc. EasyGate may not be exposed to aggressive gas, acid vapours, solvents, etc.
Mounting 2.3 2.3 Mounting External Antenna Connection Screw the antenna enclosed into the SMA antenna connector. Caution Tighten the antenna connector gently with your hand – never use wrenches! Note The antenna enclosed has a sufficient gain for trouble-free operation in normal conditions. If the UMTS signal is poor or you want to place your antenna separately from EasyGate , you can use an antenna with an SMAconnector terminated cable. The antenna should be mounted vertically.
Mounting 2.3 Wall mounting 2N® EasyGate is equipped with two hangings on the back side for wall mounting. For drilling holes to the wall could be used drill pattern in QuickStart. Figure 2.4 Zavěšení 2N® EasyGate na zeď Power Supply Connection 2N® EasyGate is fed with 10-16V DC. Where a source other than the included power supply adapter is used, the voltage range and polarity shown on the EasyGate power supply connector have to be maintained.
Telephone line connection 2.4 2.4 Telephone line connection PBX Connection Connect 2N® EasyGate to a free CO line of your PBX. Configure your PBX in such a manner that GSM outgoing calls are routed to 2N® EasyGate. Tip 2N® EasyGate is equipped with the FSK-based CLIP function. If your PBX is able to process the caller’s ID, you are advised to enable this function.
SMS Sending Input Connection 2.5 2.5 SMS Sending Input Connection You have got a special connector for easy connection to EasyGate. The connector is equipped with screwing clamps to connect wires leading to a switching contact (device to be monitored). The other connector end can be connected to the respective EasyGate panel connector. The input is designed for the switching contact connected between the input pins. The input is activated by contact closing (pin interconnection).

4 4. Function and Use This section describes the basic and extending functions of the product 2N® EasyGate . Here is what you can find in this section: Voice function FAX and Data function SMS Sending Input COM – Serial Interface SIM Card PIN protection.
Voice function 4.1 4.1 Voice function Outgoing and incoming call establishing procedures for an analog telephone are described for illustration. The procedures are the same for the EasyGate-PBX connection, just remember to program call routing to EasyGate properly. Check EasyGate’s function by connecting a telephone before.
Voice function 4.1 dialing during the BabyCall timeout cancels this function and a standard outgoing call can be made. Tariff pulses 16 or 12 kHz EasyGate has tariff pulse transmitter. You can use tariff pulses for outgoing call pricing. EasyGate offer pseudotariff only – tariff metering doesn’t correspond to real price of call, tariff pulses are transmitted according to programmed parameters and call duration.
Voice function 4.1 Call forwarding For forwarding activation you must specify the calls will be forwarded to. You may specify , if you want to forward specified call type only. You may specify in seconds for forwarding if no answer too. Description of field codes: Voice: Data: Fax: Call forwarding unconditional If activated, incoming calls will be always forwarded to the configured telephone number.
Voice function 4.1 Call forwarding if no answer If activated, incoming calls will be forwarded to the configured telephone number if incoming call isn’t answered during specified timeout. Default timeout is 20 seconds.
Voice function 4.1 Call waiting If the call waiting is activated the incoming call isn’t refused if there is call in progress on EasyGate. If there is the other incoming call during connected call it will be indicated by tone. See 0. for multiple calls management. Activation: Deactivation: Status check: Call hold Check if your network supports the service before you use it. This service relates to Call waiting described in 5.7.
FAX and Data function 4.2 4.2 FAX and Data function Only EasyGate with fax converter supports fax and data functions. Sending fax message or modem connection to and from GSM GSM fax and Data connection EasyGate with fax converter has ability to send and receive GSM fax messages using analogue fax Group 3 connected to telephone line FXS. The fax communication service must be registered with your GSM operator. It is possible to establish data connection using analog modem connected to FXS line.
FAX and Data function 4.2 DTMF codes for data receive: *9800# Reset of all following settings for data receive *9801# The next call are data, this setting is suspended after receiving call or by command *9800# *9802# Data routed to FXS, inactivate *9800# or device reset + *9803# Data routed to COM, inactivate *9800# or device reset + Commands marked + are used to set parameters, which can be set permanently in configuration program (PCManager).
SMS Sending Input 4.3 4.3 SMS Sending Input This universal input is intended especially for reporting alarm or error statuses of any equipment provided with the appropriate contact (a relay contact, e.g.). By activating this input (electric input pin interconnection) you send one SMS to one pre-programmed telephone number. Caution Do not use in life-supporting or property-protection applications because of the character of SMS service and EasyGate.
COM – Serial Interface 4.4 4.4 COM – Serial Interface The complete serial interface RS-232C on a 9-pin connector is identical with any external modem. The transmission rate ranges from 1200 to 115200 bps (EasyGate supports autobauding, i.e. responds to an AT command at a rate identical with the AT command transmission rate, and retains set on this rate). The transmission setup must be 8 bits, no parity and one STOP bit (8N1).
COM – Serial Interface 4.4 CSD or High-Speed GPRS Data Connection to Internet To connect to the Internet, install the faxmodem driver from the EasyGate CD-ROM first. Another possibility is to use the GSM provider’s installation wizard in case it supports the SIEMENS GSM module installed in EasyGate (SIEMENS MC39i, MC55, MC56 or MC55i). GPRS/faxmodem driver can be found on installation CD. The path to the driver is \\data\EasyGate\Modem driver\. Driver’s filename is mdm2n_vx.x.inf where x.
COM – Serial Interface 4.4 Outgoing and incoming calls can be made during GPRS connection. The GPRS connection remains active during the whole call but no data can be transmitted (EasyGate is a GPRS terminal of class B). Once the call is terminated, data transmission is recovered immediately. List of Supported AT Commands There are original files related to SIEMENS GSM modules in the PDF format on the EasyGate CD-ROM.
SIM Card PIN protection 4.5 4.5 SIM Card PIN protection If a SIM card is PIN-protected and the PIN is not programmed in EasyGate, GSM LED indicates the state and the PIN tone is transmitted on telephone line. PIN Entering by PCManager Like other parameters, the PIN code can be entered using a PC programming tool. The PIN will be entered automatically upon next EasyGate power up. PIN Entering via Telephone Line To enter the PIN via a telephone line using the DTMF: 1.
