Choose the optimum location for your antenna.
Use an external directional antenna for places with a bad signal quality.
Ensure that your GSM gateway function will go on working upon power
failure without the need to enter the PIN.
Safeguard the GSM gateway SIM card against misappropriation.
PBX Connection
Advantages and disadvantages
This is the cheapest connecting option wherever a PBX and an unoccupied PBX line are
available. Where the ST is connected to a non-stop well-trained service personnel
only, its operation costs are zero.
Caution
Make sure that your PBX is protected against power outage. In the event
of power outage, non-backed-up PBXs switch over some of their lines
directly to CO lines and, in that case, the ST may call another subscriber if
a prefix is used! For a smart solution see the Tips below.
For the ST to call outside the building (i.e. via PSTN):
The line to be used must have the relevant call barring status (use a common
telephone and try to call “outside” for check)
While programming, add prefixes for PSTN seizure (typically a zero), or select
a direct PSTN line seizure.
To enable dispatcher center – ST calling, identify the line (extension) to be
used and how to reach it from the outside (dial-in, DISA, operator), and select
the appropriate PBX configuration (allowing to call the ST even in the night
without an operator).
Select the appropriate call barring status for the extension to be used if any of
the pre-programmed numbers is a mobile (GSM) one.
Agree with the PBX owner on operation costs (ST outgoing calls are at the
owner’s account).
Tips
The operational costs can be solved by the “green line” (prefix 0800) calls.
The so-called automatic CO line seizure (without dial-in) is a practical
solution, which, in the case of ST switchover to a PSTN line due to power
outage, makes the ST always call the right number.
