The first batch of SMS units are now in the UK and will ship on Friday to retailers.
What can it do?
It will send a SMS to a preset phone number if one of these conditions occur:
- alarm
- powercut (thanks to the internal LiIon-battery with built-in battery charger)
- ProfiLux doesn't responsd (possibly dead?)
- digital input changes
- incoming call (password will be compared)
if you want it will be sent once, cyclic, at a certain time, ...
Up to 30 different conditions and/or phone numbers can be stored.
The SMS text can be defined by the user, if needed a status report can be appended (state of all sensors).
All settings can be done in ProfiLux Control, version 4.05:

The SMS-module will be integrated in the whole system seamlessly.

The address of the monitored ProfiLux is adjustable -> you can connect more than one ProfiLux to the SMS module!
The manual can be downloaded here:

Some useful hints and tips for SMS use:
1. If you are accessing the ProfiLux via PLM-USB or PLM-(W)LAN you must enable the router function (see manual under communication) if you want to communicate with the connected SMS-module.
2. Cable connection, the cables are not interchangeable and should be used as follows:
Grey - From ProfiLux to SMS
Black - From PC to SMS
3. Q: My ProfiLux control software does not show SMS?
A: Make sure you are using V4.05 profiLux control and V4.05 Firmware. On controller set COM1 to Router. Found under Extras - communication - COM1. This is done ON the ProfiLux NOT the software. Also in the connection set up in profiLux control, select SMS then save.
4. Q: SMS-module stops working (or resets) when connecting to PC or ProfiLux
A: The battery is still too low - give the device some minutes to charge the battery, then connect it
Get your orders in asap as the stocks are still low for this new product.
