    Hello
    I have a versa 15 alarm control panel and I also have a GPRS T2 module.
    My problem is that I do not get an SMS about the alarm and that the power has been turned off.
    What I have already tested and it definitely works:
    - SMS notifying information about arming and disarming the alarm,
    - after releasing the signal to the SIM card, the module receives test information from the GPRS module status,
    - I can use my phone to get information about the account balance or top up the SIM card.
    There are two things I miss to be fully happy:
    - notification about the activation of the alarm,
    - notification of power failure,
    Before GPRS T2, I had the MGSM 2.0PC GSM Ropam module and the alarm notification worked without any problems and the control panel did not move after changing the module.
    This is how the control panel with the module is connected:
    Versa15 Alarm Control Panel & GPRS T2 Module: SMS Notifications for Activation & Power Failure
    and here is the configuration in the program:
    Versa15 Alarm Control Panel & GPRS T2 Module: SMS Notifications for Activation & Power Failure
    I immediately thought whether the AC time should be different from 0min0s? Does it matter because I forgot to test it.
    I will add that in the event of a power failure, information appears on the keypad.
    Thank you in advance for your help.

    Hello,

    Another question ...
    Who recommended the T2 notification module to you?

    Greetings.

    I found it myself, I could choose elmes gsm2 but the opinions were average and the satellite is a satellite, or the t4 version, but I will not control sms, I wanted there to be 1 device because in the previous one I had an old Nokia phone connected to the module, but it was this one the phone often turned off by itself so I changed to what I have now.

    So why didn't you choose GPRS T1?

    Because in the initial version I assumed that maybe I would like to open the gate with this, but it doesn't matter I have such a module and I want these texts to work for me

    Gentlemen, the questions regarding the selection of the module make the most sense, but they do not solve the user's problem in any way.
    And this (problem) is as follows:

    So it remains to check the module itself by giving / taking the ground from Z1 briefly and the continuity of the wiring.

    I changed the time to something other than 0 and the text messages about the lack of 230 V voltage are coming, so half of the success is behind me.
    Unfortunately, another problem appeared, so I wanted to check on the keypad how the output is programmed and unfortunately I could not do it.
    On the keypad, entering the administrator password, I press 0, it enters the SERVICE mode and there I still have only one option 5. PERMANENT ACCESS nothing beyond this option, if I turn it on, it writes moments that permanent access has been obtained and leaves the entire menu, and so on over and over. What may be the problem ? Honestly, I did it from 5-6 years ago and I changed the standard password 12345 to mine. I have administrator mode myself - I can create new accounts, etc.
    In the live gprs-soft program, I checked what happens when the alarm changes and unfortunately the state has not changed. So I suspect maybe this output is programmed wrong.

    Enter the SERVICE password, then you will get to TS and check it.

    programmed.


    But apparently it worked with the old transmitter?
    Surely the alarm was derived from this out and what are you giving? Check cableology, and if you have a problem with it, take photos.

    With the old MGSM 2.0PC GSM Ropam transmitter, everything worked, i.e. information about the alarm and about arming / disarming at 100%. I replaced the module because an old cell was connected to it, which kept turning off due to the battery.

    I checked the cable that goes from Out3 to Z1. The cable is definitely not broken. All the control panel and GPRS module cabling is 100% as shown in the diagram.

    The module itself, as I give / take the mass from the Z1, works for a short time and the SMS comes.

    I also got a password for service mode.
    From what I can see, output 3 was programmed as an external siren because I have a siren cable connected to it, which turns on when an alarm occurs. I changed it to the burglar alarm function and unfortunately it doesn't change anything either.

    On the other hand, the output 4 is programmed as a power supply in armed mode and here it receives texts about arming and disarming.

    Do you have any ideas what I could check?

    If the input works and the cable is ok, check the output, starting by removing the siren cable from this output.

    Another progress has come in my work, after disconnecting the siren from the out3 output and leaving only the alarm notification cable, I get information when someone turns the alarm on. The downside is that the siren doesn't howl.
    I made another attempt, namely I connected the siren back to out3 and gave an alarm notification to out4. I have programmed both outputs, one as an external siren and the other as a burglary alarm. Unfortunately, in this case, I do not receive SMS information about the alarm.
    At the moment I have a choice of either a siren or a text message. Is it possible for both of these functions to work simultaneously?

    Yes - program OUT4 correctly - I suspect that you have not selected the triggering inputs.

    Is it possible to do this on 1 output? because I would like to use the second out 4 in the future to obtain information about whether the alarm is armed.

    Hello,

    It is possible to do it on one exit, provided that you do not exceed its load capacity. You can also use a relay with two pairs of contacts. You control the siren with one pair and the GSM module with the other.

    Greetings.

    I actually missed the selection of all trigger inputs, I only selected the first.

    My last question in connection with this topic.
    Currently I have OUT3 for siren and out4 for alarm notification. There is no information about arming / disarming status yet.
    I would like to ask if it is possible to connect the siren to a high-current output because I do not want to play with any relays. I think it could be done.
    Now the connection of the siren looks like this:
    Versa15 Alarm Control Panel & GPRS T2 Module: SMS Notifications for Activation & Power Failure

    Can someone guide me how to properly connect it to e.g. OUT1?
