Setting up your Ontech GSM 9025, 9035 or 9040 Unit

To set new settings or change old settings you must follow these steps:

Go to one of the setting tabs above (General/Alarm Numbers/Advanced/Garage opener).
On the setting page of your choice, do all your settings, then press "Create Code" button.
Copy all of the generate code.
Open SMS service (Messages) and paste the entire code into a new SMS and send it to the unit.
The unit will now store the settings in its memory and then restart. This will take less than one minute.
If you want to make more settings from another setting page, repeat step 2-5.

Hints

There are three setting pages and all code must be sent individually from each one of them. So setting all three pages, means that you must create and send three SMS.
No information that you enter is stored permanently, which means that it will disappear as soon as you navigate away from this web page.
No information is sent to our server, which means that your password will be perfectly safe with you.
If you have access to an Android smart phone, there is no need to do any settings from this page. Simply download Ontech Control from Google Play. It has support to do all settings from within the app.

Other settings
Unit for timer		When a relay is set for a specific time, this setting defines if the time should be counted in seconds, minutes or hours.
Battery messages		If this setting is OFF, no "low battery" message will be sent (only Ontech GSM 9025).
Status		If this is set to a phone number, all status and update requests will be sent to this number instead of the mobile phone that sent the original request.
GPS Fence		Only for Ontech GSM 9025: If you have a GPS connected, this will set the allowed size of the GPS Fence function.
24 Volt		Select ON if the master is powered by 24V. This setting only affects at which battery level the "battery low"-SMS will be sent (only Ontech GSM 9025).
Alarm blink		If this setting is OFF, the red LED will never blink when there is an alarm.
Server mode (for version R40 or later)		Server mode only works for the master relay. It means: 1. Relay is always ON after power failure. 2. It is not possible to control the relay with the button. 3. It is not possible to control the relay with SMS, except that the Relay timer function will still work. With Relay timer it is possible to turn the relay OFF for a specific number of seconds (or minutes). This is useful to restart the server. 4. Alarm will always be activated and is not possible to deactivate with SMS.
Sensor (4-20mA) settings
Sensor		If this is active, you can connect a 4-20 mA sensor to the third pin of the temperature sensor connector. The 4-20 mA signal will be converted to a value between 0% and 100%. It also is possible to connect a 0-10V sensor to this pin. ON (no SMS) means you will not get any SMS when no current is detected. Contact us for more information (www.ontechgsm.com).
Alarm level under		An SMS will be sent every time the 4-20 mA sensor goes under this level.
Alarm level over		An SMS will be sent every time the 4-20 mA sensor goes over this level.

Garage opener

The garage opener feature makes it possible to program up to three phone numbers (position 1 to 3).

When any programmed number calls the GSM unit, it will directly hang up the call and give a pulse (activate the relay) for one second. This pulse can be used to control a garage opener motor.

Garage opener
Function		You can: Program a phone number to position 1 to 3. Delete a previous programmed phone number in position 1 to 3. Get the programmed phone number in position 1 to 3. You will get the position and the last six digits of the programmed phone number (example: "02;654321" means position 2 and then the last 6 digits of the phone number).
Position		Select the position (1 to 3), where you want to store (or delete) the phone number.
