MODEL NUMBER GSM-4G-GATE -V14
GSM 2G/3G/4G
GATE OPENER
12V
Product Information
The GSM 2G/3G/4G Gate Opener incorporates a professional industrial grade GSM engine
that receives calls at its sim number, as any ordinary GSM phone. The system operates in
the GSM module quad-band 850/900/1800/1900/2100mhz and has 3G and 4G capabilities
when using a 3G or 4G simcard.
Just to give an example, if your SIM has a phone number 9228 9810555, this is the number
you call to open the gates. The system has a memory where you will store the numbers of
people enabled to open the gate (up to 200). When the Gate Opener receives a call, it will
check the calling number. If the number is a stored number it will reject the call and open the
gate. Therefore, avoiding any call charges being incurred.
The advantages of this over other systems is that you do not have to leave your car to open
the gates, avoiding weather and safety issues. Furthermore, you do not need to carry
around a separate remote device or indeed replace it if it were to get lost!

Instructions
IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ
Please ensure that you disconnect the power when you fit the simcard Then slide the
simcard into the holder ensuring the clipped corner of the simcard lines up with the clipped
corner of the simcard holder.
Powering the 2G/3G/4G Gate Opener
Connect 12 volts to the input connector as per figure 1. Once power has been applied the
blue network LED light will flash once every second. Once a signal has been found the
green ready LED will come on and stay on indicating the unit is ready to use.
Signal Strength
To help ensure that you place the unit in a suitable position you can text the unit
#SIGNAL#
The dialler will perform a test on the signal strength. You will then receive a signal strength
score of between 0 up to 30. We strongly recommend that place the unit where you can
receive a signal strength score of at least 10. Anything less than that will render the unit
unreliable.
2G or 3G or 4G
The GSM Gate Opener can work on either the 2G, 3G or 4G networks depending on
which
model you have. You can choose which network the unit will use at the start up using the
following dipswitch settings
Dipswitch 1 OFF & Dipswitch 2 OFF = Connects to 2G
Dipswitch 1 OFF & Dipswitch 2 ON = Connects to 3G
Dipswitch 1 ON & Dipswitch 2 ON = Connects to 4G
IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ
We strongly recommend checking the signal on 2G, 3G and 4G and using the signal that
has the highest signal strength score. The signal strength should be at least a score of 10
for reliability.

How to programme the 2G/3G GSM Gate Opener
Once the unit has a green LED light it is ready to use. The unit has a caller ID function so
only authorised numbers you store can activate the unit. If caller ID is left OFF anyone
phoning the units number can operate the relays.
Please Note - We have colour coded the HASHTAG and EQUALS symbols to make it
easier.
To turn caller ID on send a text message
#ID=ON#
To turn caller ID off send a text message
#ID=OFF#
NOTE - If you do not require authorised users please skip to the next page.
Programming Caller ID
To programme a number to the caller ID (WHL), send this text message code:
#WHL=NUMBER#
To delete the number send the text message code
#DEL=NUMBER#
Example #WHL=07123456789# Stores your mobile number (max 200 users).
#DEL=07123456789# Deletes your mobile number
If the code is accepted the unit will reply “WHL NUMBER STORED” or “WHL NUMBER
DELETED”
PLEASE NOTE - You can only send one number at a time. Please send the message and
wait for the text acknowledgement before you attempt to add another
number.
Please ensure that you have credit on the simcard to receive the text acknowledgement. It
may take some time to receive a text acknowledgement depending on how busy your
telephone provider is at the time.
Reset Function
For a quick reset and to clear all numbers there is a built in reset function that can be
triggered by sending the text
#RESET#
The unit will remove all WHL numbers stored and return to factory settings

How to use the 2G/3G/4G Gate Opener
Using your mobile phone or landline, dial the simcard number. You will hear 1 ring tone. The
unit will automatically hang up. This will prevent any call charges being incurred. The relay
will then pulse for a period of time. This is the unit sending the signal to your gate control
board to open the gate.
IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ - Calling in using the 4G mode can currently be inconsistent
due to several factors such as, signal strength, voice over LTE (4G calling) being available
on simcards and phone etc. If you experience unreliability on 4G Please boot the unit up
using 2G or 3G depending on which has the better signal strength
Relay Pulse Time
The unit has an adjustable pulse time for the phone call activation. The unit will either pulse
for 1 second or 3 seconds as some gate controls need a very quick pulse and others a
slower pulse.
To change the pulse time you will need to send the text message
#SLOW# - Sets the relay pulse time to 3 seconds
#FAST# - Sets the relay pulse time to 1 second
The default setting is slow
Texting the Gate to Open
If you need keep the gate permanently open or for a longer period of time, you can send the
text command:
#OPEN#
To close the gate simply call the simcard number. This will cancel the relay and close the
gate.
IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ
Some gate systems do not have the facility to allow the gate to stay open. Please refer to
your gate control system manual for further information
Pedestrian Access
Relay 2 controls the pedestrian gate. You will need to text the unit
#PEDESTRIAN#
This will pulse relay 2 on for 3 ½ seconds. This should be sufficient time to open the gate
to allow for pedestrian access.
SIM Active Function
The unit has a sim active function which monitors the activity on the simcard. If it has been
inactive for 6 weeks it will send a phone call to a pre-recorded number. This will eliminate
the problem of sim’s getting shut down if they are unused for 3 months.
