GSM Modem
GSM is a network used for connecting two devices and exchanging data. It can be used by an OCS with an internal modem
HE-GSM04A to communicate to other devices connecting to an Internet/GSM/PSTN network.
To install a GSM modem option card in an XLe/XLt/XL6 OCS, open the back cover of the OCS and connect the Modem HE-
GSM04A and then connect the antenna to the modem.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1. Disconnect all power from the XLe/XLt/XL6 OCS (Operator Control Station) unit including I/O power.
2. Remove the four screws on the back of the
XLe/XLt/XL6 unit and remove the back cover. The back cover will be replaced with the
extended back cover that ships with the communication add-on. Screws are re-used (Figure 1).
3. Plug the communication board onto the 24-pin connector. Make sure all the pins are properly aligned (Figure 2).
4. Place the extended back cover onto the unit. It can be helpful to tip it at an angle so the connector on the COM board passes
through the opening on the back cover.
5. Place the screw back into the hole and turn the screw slowly counter clockwise until it clicks into the threads. This prevents the screw
from being cross-threaded. Now, turn the screw clock-wise until the cover is firmly secured. Repeat this process for all four (4) screws.
With the GSM modem option card, the Data Exchange and Connectivity with Cscape can be established in the following two ways:
