Guest stoker Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Hi all, i'm a spark by trade andi'm fairly new to the site but i've been asked to connect an autodialler to an alarm system thats on a boat. I've been told that its possible to connect an autodialler to a mobile phone, could anyone point us in the right direction as regards this ie brands of dialler, connections any adaptions needed etc. It may also need a new panel due to the code being mis-laid, anyone know of the best type of panel to use that makes best use of battery power? Any advice gratefully recieved!! Thanx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 There is a similar thread here somewhere, who was using this sort of kit for a remote factory/storage unit? Think arfur was involved in it somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arfur mo Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Hi All, that remote factory turned out to be holding exsplosives . and we suggested radio linked detection. i have not used any gsm only diallers, and the boat owner would need to check signal on a particular network in the mooring. one suggestion comes to mind though, it's a completely different product to a true alarm dialler as it's a bit of kit used on remote un-manned gate posts. you fit a sim card into it and when the call push is pressed it dials a sequence of pre-programmed phone numbers as entered into the Pay As U Go sim card by any mobile network. any alarm fitted could use this as a 'dry contact' interface, and no message needed as the number will only be from the boat. having a remote option to open a gate via a relay output, and of course you have a speech path, so this could be used voice verify and to sound sirens whatever, and i think curent drain is also very small. regs alan If you think education is difficult, try being stupid!!!!

Guest Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Nah , chaps name aint bob Just wondered. Well if you get this thing working, e-mail me as I have got a guy in Tewkesbury who wants the same thing. I don't want to do it as I will have to support it from Weston-super-Mare.

Guest stoker Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Does a wanderer panel have a gsm built in then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest stoker Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Just had a look on the castle web site, that wanderer panel looks like a pretty top spec panel, is there anything it wont do!? But also noticed that its currently not in production which i thought was strange, (surely should remove its listing then).But like you said Jameswilson looks like it would be big bucks anyway.
