INTRODUCTION

The FSK TX Cellular Plus (TXC+) is a highly featured GSM based unit which is used for the transmission of Security and Telemetry messages over the GSM network.The TXC+ can communicate via both GPRS and SMS messages and includes the universal Contact ID interface to Alarm Control Panels as well as serial interfacing into some leading panels. It also has seven dry contact input triggersIn addition, the TXC+ has two outputs (expandable to 10 outputs) which can be used to command Alarm Panels and other devices.

FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS OF THE TXC +

Reporting Options• Option of Single or Dual SIM card operation for enhanced security• GPRS reporting to a control room• Option of back-off to SMS (to control room) if GPRS is not available• SMS directly to cell-phones (up to 10 cell phone numbers)• SMS reporting to cell phones includes full user, zone and partition identification in plain text

Interfaces• 7 Hardwired inputs with positive trip, negative trip or both• Dedicated AC Supply monitoring input• 2 on-board relay outputs which can controlled by SMS, missed call or via the remote control• Optional Relay output expansion board (8 relays per board, giving a total of 10 outputs).• Contact ID Tip and Ring Telephone interface to all leading control panels• Serial alarm interface to leading control panels• Over-the-air Panel Uploading and Downloading on the Texecom Premier control panels via the

serial interface

Remote controls• Optional 433MHz code-hopping remote control receiver compatible with FSK remote transmitters• 2 on-board relay outputs which can be activated by the remote controls• Up to 200 remote controls can be programmed into the unit

INSTALLATION

Connections to the TXC+ are shown below

Power SupplyThe TXC+ must be connected to a stable 12V DC (nominal 13.2V) power supply. If a battery is available in the alarm panel, it must preferably be powered directly from the battery

Check AC • The Check AC (CAC) input detects the presence of the AC supply and is used to check for power

failure.• The CAC line should be connected to one of the transformer’s SECONDARY terminals. Do NOT

connect this line to the mains. • The CAC line will detect AC voltages between 10 and 24V.• If the CAC line is not connected, the TXC+ should not be programmed to send AC Failure or

Restoral Signals.

Dry Contact Inputs• The dry contact inputs can be used to detect alarms generated from the outputs of the Alarm

Panel or from other sources.• If the external device generates the alarm by pulling the input to ground (negative trigger), the pull-

up jumper should be inserted on the input of the TXC+.

Contact ID Inputs• The TXC+ can ‘intercept’ signals sent by the alarm panel on its telephone line (Contact ID)

interface. If the Contact ID interface is to be used, the Alarm Panel’s TIP and RING lines should be connected to the TIP and RING lines on the TXC+.

• The alarm panel must be programmed to use its dialler, and the option for reporting must be set to Contact ID. Refer to the programming manual of the applicable Alarm Panel.

• The TXC+ can be programmed to use its own account code or the account code of the alarm panel when sending alarms received via the Contact ID interface.

4

Serial PortThe TXC+ can receive alarms from the following alarm panels on its serial port: • Texecom premier range (panel uploads and downloads can also be done) • Paradox E65, SP6000 and MG5050 • Pima

Relay Outputs• Two dry-contact relay outputs are available on the TXC+. These outputs can be commanded

to turn on and off via the GSM network or by using the option of the on-board remote control receiver.

• The outputs are rated to 24V AC or DC, up to a maximum of 5A. • Do not connect the relay outputs to the mains supply

Indicators and ControlsThe TXC+ has a seven segment display which indicates the current operating status and the SIM card being used.

Diagnostics of Error Codes

ERROR STATE CAUSE CORRECTIVE ACTION

Stunned The TXC+ has been sent a stun message via SMS and will no longer send any alarms. OrThe TXC+ has sent too many SMS messages in a period of time and is stopping a run-away SMS condition (30 SMS messages in an hour)

Send the TXC+ the Un-stun SMS

No SIM card There is no SIM card inserted in a SIM holder and the TXC+ has been programmed to use that SIM card OrThe SIM card is damaged

Make sure that a SIM card is correctly inserted in the holder

If there is only one SIM card installed, make sure that the TXC+ is not programmed to use the open SIM holder

SMS fail The TXC+ cannot send the SMS OrThe network has returned an error in response to the TXC+ sending the SMS

Make sure that the SIM card is capable of sending SMS messages

If it is a pay as you go SIM card, make sure that it has available funds loaded onto the SIM card

Server ConnectionFail

The TXC+ cannot connect to the FSK server to route the GPRS message to the control room

Make sure that the SIM card is capable of connecting to the GPRS network

Make sure that the programming of the Server GPRS settings are correct

If it is a pay as you go SIM card, make sure that it has available funds loaded onto the SIM card

The GSM network may be experiencing technical problems. Contact the GSM provider

PROGRAMMING

PC based ProgrammerThe FSK TX Cellular+ Setup utility is a Windows ® based programmer which is used as the primary means of programming the TXC+.The TXC+ programmer requires a PC running Windows XP or Windows 7 with an available COM Port (a USB to Serial Adapter can also be used). The FSK programming cable and RS232 converter is required to program the TXC+ (see Appendix E)

Handheld ProgrammerThe FSK Handheld Programmer is a programming and diagnostics tool which can be used with the TXC+.When the TXC+ is used in conjunction with the handheld Programmer in diagnostics mode, any problems connecting to the GSM network can be determined.

SMS ProgrammingMany of the settings on the TXC+ can be changes by sending a SMS to the unit. The SMS commands are shown in Appendix A.

7

APPENDIX A – SMS COMMANDS AND PROGRAMMING

The TXC+ has a number of SMS commands and programming commands which can be used to: • Activate the outputs • Request the unit status • Change programming information and request current programming information

If the TXC+ is to reply to any of these commands and programming updates, the SMS function has to be enabled on the SIM card.

FSK supplied SIM cards cannot send SMS’s
