The set of commands of this remote is divided into two categories: the SMS ones and the DTMF tones. The former are simply summarized in the corresponding table, since they are the same as the ones described for remote 2 IN/2 OUT. Here we will only describe in detail the DTMF commands, first stating that…
Commands can be given in two different ways: the first one is to send the SMS according to required syntax and with the password (if required), needful to avoid strangers to operate the configuration; the second one is to introduce, through Easy Setup, the number of the mobile enabled to make the following settings via…
Now you have to get to know the commands needed to manage it and use them at their best. Relevant commands must be given by SMS, on the understanding that a message can contain multiple messages properly separated; some commands, due to their importance, they require a password which is 12345, set by default during…
Up to 200 numbers can be stored and enabled to control the relay, which allows people to use the gate opener not only in big condos and residences, but also in companies and all those other contexts in which many users are likely to need to have access. In order to avoid using SMSs, which…
This GSM Mobile is used for our Remote Control (for example Gate Control, Temperature Control….). We use the word ‘module’ because, unlike what we did in our remote control projects, this time around the mobile phone is not mounted on a printed board, but rather on a small auxiliary board which is then inserted in a…
This module produced by Quectel, too, is GSM/GPRS (GSM Phase 2/2+) compatible and is a Quad-band type; the radio section works at a frequency of GSM 850 MHz, GSM 900 MHz, DCS 1800 MHz, and PCS 1900 MHz. GPRS compatibility occurs in class-12 multi-slot modality, schemes CS-1, CS-2, CS-3 e CS-4. The GPRS connection supports…
This is a GSM/GPRS-compatible Quad-band cell phone, which works on a frequency of 850/900/1800/1900MHz and which can be used not only to access the Internet, but also for oral communication (provided that it is connected to a microphone and a small loud speaker) and for SMSs. Externally, it looks like a big package (0.94 inches…
Commands and settings can be sent by any cell phone via SMSs, as long as the message in question contains a password. Some of the commands can be composed without the use of a password (just so that they can be composed faster), provided that they are sent from one of the first eight numbers…
A modular solution allowing for the use of a single circuit for numerous functions, such as gate opening, bidirectional telecontrol, and many others. It adopts a newly-conceived low-cost GSM/GPRS module. Nowadays, creating a remote control is much simpler and safer than it used to be, even if it is to be used from the other…
Let us start by describing the device’s electric scheme in its entirety, that is, along with all its components; we should also state in advance that the module we call GSM is, in reality, the small board hosting the cell phone, so the pin numbers refer to the contacts of the pin-strips that have been…
Now that we are familiar with the structure and functions of the base circuit, we can look at how it is built; let us state in advance that its realization presupposes a double-layer printed board with metallic holes, a choice we made in order to be able to reduce the overall size of the device….
Download the article Do you still think you need GPS to know where a person or vehicle is? Well, here is some news for you: by using cellular network data and properly querying Google, even a simple GSM module is able to determine one’s position, with a fairly acceptable error margin. Although…
