How to Configure 2 Units of MOBITEK S150 to Connect 2 Electrical Equipments on Separate Locations

  1. For S150 unit #1, it will be configured as follows:-
    • the SMS content should be set to 1234CC and 1234DD
    • when S150 unit #1 detects an alarm, it sends out a SMS to S150 unit #2
  2. For S150 unit #2, there is no need to do any configuration in “Alarm Configurator” software
    • the device or equipment must be connect to relay output no. 2 (only this output can accept SMS command to turn on or off) of S150 unit #2 :-
  3. On S150 unit #2, the “Relay” LED will turn on (red colour) when “1234CC” SMS command is received.
  4. The “Relay” LED will turn off when “1234DD” SMS command is received.

 

Problem with Relay Output of S150

  1. S150 cannot supply power to device or equipment connected to both “Relay Output” no. 1 and no. 2, therefore it cannot power up the other modem.
  2. Only “Relay Output” (digital output) no. 2 can accept SMS command.
  3. S150 acts as a switch (turn on or off).

How to Change the Baud Rate of MOBITEK Q25 4G Modem

  1. By default, the baud rate for MOBITEK Q25 is “115200”.
  2. To change the baud rate of MOBITEK Q25 to another value and save it as default, MOBITEK Q25 needs to be connected to the PC using serial cable.
  3. Open Hyper Terminal, connect MOBITEK Q25 using “COM1” and set the baud rate to “115200”.
  4. Type “AT” in Hyper Terminal. If the response is “OK” then MOBITEK Q25 is successfully connected. If nothing can be entered in Hyper Terminal , then unplug and replug the serial cable to the serial port of the PC until “OK” is shown.
  5. In this example, the baud rate will be changed to “9600”. To do this, type “AT+IPR=9600;&W” in Hyper Terminal.

  6. At this point, nothing can be typed in Hyper Terminal because the baud rate setting has been changed from “115200” to “9600”.
  7. Disconnect MOBITEK Q25 from Hyper Terminal.
  8. Go to “File” -> “Properties”. In “Properties”, click on “Configure”. In “Port Settings”, change the baud rate to “9600”.
  9. Connect the MOBITEK Q25 to Hyper Terminal again. Enter “AT” and query the baud rate command. The baud rate should be changed to “9600”.
