GSM Remote Switching Module
„GX106"
Item no. 19 66 66
Intended Use
This GSM switching module is used for activating/deactivating devices via the GSM network,
automatic temperature control, remote request of the status of all inputs and outputs and the
generation of SMS messages. The safety information in these operating instructions always
has to be observed!
This product is not a toy and not suitable for children under 14 years of age.
Important! To take the GSM module into operation properly, the steps indicated in
the operating instructions on the included CD must be performed strictly in the
indicated order. Non-observance may lead to functions not being warranted,
configuration being impossible and/or the SIM card being locked by the GSM
module.

Scope of Delivery
• GSM module
• Control software
• USB cable
• GSM aerial
• Closing plug
• Brief instructions
• CD with detailed operating instructions (PDF format)
The following components not included in the delivery of the GSM module are also
required for assembly and operation:
• An activated SIM card from any provider
• A mobile phone without SIM-lock (to configure the SIM card of the GSM module)
• Power supply 5 - 30 V/DC, 1 A (e.g. solar rechargeable battery or stabilised mains adapter)
• Suitable connection lines for supply voltage and connection of the in- and outputs
• Optionally, depending on use of the in- and outputs, you additionally need up to 7 relays
(Conrad item no. 502892) or relay PCBs (Conrad item no. 585498)
• Optionally, depending on use of the in- and outputs, you need 1 or 2 temperature sensors
(e.g. Conrad item no. 198896)
• Optionally, when using the PWM output, you need a suitable servo motor. To define the
precise adjustment points of the servo motor, an oscilloscope is required additionally.
Operating Conditions
• The GSM module is operated at direct voltage between 5 - 30 V/DC.
• For operation free of defects, the power source must be able to deliver a current of at least
1000 mA without voltage drop.
It is not important whether supply is provided by a rechargeable battery (e.g. solar
rechargeable battery) or a suitable mains adapter with stabilised output.
• When installing the GSM module, ensure a sufficient cable cross-section of the connection
lines.
• The GSM module should be installed in an area protected from splashing water. It can be
installed in any position.
• Reception for the provider whose SIM card you want to use in the GSM module must be free
of interferences at the mounting site of the GSM module or the GSM aerial; its field strength
must be as high as possible.
Function Overview of the Inputs
w w w. c o n r a d . c o m
This GSM module has 5 inputs. Every input can send an SMS, fax or email as information upon
a previously defined input signal. The following inputs are available:
Version 08/11
• Two digital inputs "IN1" and "IN2" that recognise and indicate pre-defined digital switching

conditions (high or low) at input voltages between 0-12 V/DC. These inputs are used, e.g.
for smoke detectors, burglary alarms (current loops that are interrupted), outputs of an alarm
system.
• An analogue input (ADC) can record and indicate measurement results. The input
measurement range is 0-2 V/DC. If this voltage range is not sufficient for your applications,
voltage separators can be used for corresponding adjustment. For this, observe the
additional notes in chapter "Analogue Input (ADC)" in these operating instructions. The
analogue input is used, e.g. for fill level indicators (with slowly changing analogue voltages
of 0 to 2 V).
• Two temperature inputs "T1" and "T2" are used for temperature measurement and control.
One temperature sensor each (e.g. Conrad item no. 198896) can be connected to the two
temperature inputs. These inputs are used, e.g. to monitor room temperatures and for
targeted control of heating systems.
Output Function Overview
This GSM module has 10 outputs. Each output is assigned a specific function or input signal.
The module has the following options:
• The "INCALL" output can be activated via an incoming call. For this, the GSM module already
has a relay firmly assigned to this function. The relay has a potential-free contact (for max.
permissible load values see "Technical Data") and is activated by incoming call. The
switching duration can be programmed. This output is used, e.g. for garage door openers,
house door lighting, ventilation, etc.
• The four SMS outputs are activated by SMS command and can switch devices on or off
depending on command. The connection purpose of the outputs can be used individually
according to the "Incall output". The output "SMS1" has a relay already connected (for max.
permissible load values, see "Technical Data"). A relay (Conrad item no. 502892) of the relay
PCB (Conrad item no. 585498) can be directly connected to the remaining outputs.
• The four temperature outputs switch the respective outputs on and off according to pre-set
temperature thresholds. The temperature outputs can be integrated into already-present
control electronics at the user's discretion. As an alternative, you can connect the outputs to
one relay each (Conrad item no. 502892) or to the relay PCB (Conrad item no. 585498) to
perform switching processes.
• The PWM output is an analogue output that issues a rectangular pulse of approx. 1.5 kHz
and serves control of servo motors. These servo motors move to a specified position in small
steps. This output can be activated via SMS. The pulse width (control signal) can be set in
255 steps from 1 to 255 by SMS command.
