DETERMINING WHICH UNIT YOU HAVE
The following sticker will be located on the unit:
This will tell you which unit you have. The first four squares indicate whether it is a normal unit, a modem unit, an alert unit or a Quattro unit. If QAD is ticked, it means that you have a 2nd Generation XR unit. If EUD is ticked, it means that you have a 3rd Generation XR unit.
1.INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
In order for the GSM module to work correctly, it is important that you comply with all the requirements! (Please note that the operation of the unit is dependent on the correct functioning of the GSM network according to the indicated specifications).
SIM CARD
The unit works with both a subscription and prepaid call SIM cards. If you are using a prepaid card, you must ensure that your phone credit does not expire or that you can use it for as long as possible. Some prepaid cards have to be charged a few times a year if you wish to keep on using them. Make sure that your provider has activated the SIM card before you place it in the unit and ensure that the pin-code, voice mail and call-waiting are switched off.
If you opt to programme via the modem (chapter 6), the SIM card in the modem and the SIM card in the unit must both be equipped with number recognition and CSD (Circuit switched Data). If you opt to programme via IP, the SIM card must also have a fixed IP address and a data subscription.
NB!
The Apache 700XR 2nd Generation only works on the 2G network. The Apache 700XR 3rd Generation works on the 2G and 3G network.
POWER SUPPLY
The power supply for the Apache must be at least 12V Dc and a maximum of 24V Dc. The use of a fuse in the Apache is advised if you are using vehicles with 24V charge, such as lorries. The power supply must correspond to en60950 guidelines.
- Supply voltage 12V DC – 24V DC
- Power supply: minimum 1.2A @12V DC
- Maximum switch output internal relay = 1A @ 30V DC
RECEPTION
The unit must be able to receive the Gsm network from your provider. Install the unit in a location with sufficient signal from your network provider. If the reception is not good, you can connect the antenna with a 3 meter cable in order to maximise reception.
2.QUICK START
- Place an activated SIM card or SIM card without pin-code, voicemail or call-waiting into the unit.
- Then connect the power supply.
- The red LED will light up briefly and then go out.
- After around 25 seconds, the red LED will begin to blink.
- The green LED will come on around 60 seconds later and the red LED will blink every 3 seconds; the unit is now ready to be called.
- Programme your telephone number into the unit via an sms or the software.
- You can now switch the relay by calling the number of the unit.
NB: 3rd Generation units will start up more quickly than set out above.
3.STATUS OF THE LED
The status of the built-in LEDs can be read off to ensure that the unit is working correctly. Below, you can see the LED indications and the corresponding meanings.
Green LED gives the status of the internal software and the GSM network
- On all the time Unit ready for call/registered on the network
- Blinking quickly (between 0.5 and 1 sec) SIM card is not recognised/SIM card is not working/No SIM card in unit
- Blinking occasionally (1 sec on 0.3 sec off) Time has not been set on the unit
- Temporarily off Unit’s relay is switching
- Permanently off Unit is off
Red LED indicates the hardware status of the unit
- On all the time Call underway
- Blinking quickly (between 0.5 and 1 sec) Hardware error
- Blinking slowly (3 sec) Unit has started up and hardware is ok
- Permanently off Unit is off
If the green LED is on all the time, it indicates that the Apache is ready for use and that it can be programmed.
THE GREEN LED MUST BE ON ALL THE TIME IN ORDER TO SWITCH THE RELAY OR MAKE THE CONNECTION VIA THE SOFTWARE.
If the green LED blinks, a working SIM card has not been installed or there is no contact with the provider of the SIM card.
The red LED must blink slowly; this indicates that the unit is completely active.
If the green LED stays on for a long time and blinks every now and then, the time has not been set on the unit and it won’t function properly. In order to resolve this, send an SMS with P.1234CU to the unit or set the ‘clock update sms’ (via the software). If you choose the latter option (via the software), you must then reboot the unit by pressing the ‘reset’ button on the front of the unit until the green leD blinks rapidly. The unit will then re-start.

We advise you to use the adapter (supplied) to supply power to the unit. If you do not want to use this, you must connect the red and black wires.
NB: You must never connect the adapter and the wires simultaneously!
The Apache Quattro module came with a special 24-pin cable. Not every connection is used, so look at the following chart which wires you need to connect. Below the image of the relay module you find an indication for which wire should be connected to which connector.
Note: It is recommended that the wires that aren’t used are bind together and bend, as seen in the picture below.

Relay outputs (Apache 3rd generation Quattro)
The Apache 3rd Generation Quattro is equipped with a module with 4 relay outputs. The connections for these outputs are located on the relay unit that is connected to the Apache 3rd Generation Quattro via the special connector cables.
- Maximum switch voltage per relay = 10A @ 250 V AC / 10A @ 30 V DC
- Relay 1: Normally Open (NO/NC)
- Relay 2: Normally Open (NO/NC)
- Relay 3: Normally Open (NO/NC)
- Relay 4: Normally Open (NO/NC)
The switch duration per relay can be set individually between 1 and 60 seconds. The relay can be switched separately by calling the unit or sending an sms.
When a connection is made to the unit, the user can choose on their telephone which relay must be switched by pressing the corresponding figure on the mobile phone. This functionality can be set via the software and can be set per user. The corresponding sms command can be found in the following chapter.
NB
If a user is authorised to switch one relay, only the allocated relay will switch; the connection will not be made first. The unit will refuse the call via number recognition. If a user is authorised to switch more than one relay, a connection will be made and he must choose which relay is switched.
If users can choose which relay is switched, the provider will make a charge because the mobile network is being used.
External relay connection (2nd Generation and 3rd Generation)
If the relay has to switch a (control) voltage, you must use an external relay when commissioning. If the external relay breaks down due to frequent switching, you can simply connect a new external switch relay and do not need to replace the unit. The supply is internally connected to pin 23 (GnD) and pin 24 (V+)
- Connect Pin 24 (V+) directly to the relay
- Connect pin 23 (GND) with pin 14 (relay B)
- Connect pin 13 (relay a) with relay
Connection examples
Relay output connected to switch relay or pulse relay
Internal relay can switch a maximum of 30V/1 ampère

It is responsibility of the user to enforce the country regulation and the specific environment regulation. Do not disassemble the product; any mark of tampering will compromise the warranty validity. We recommend following the instructions of the hardware user guides for a correct wiring of the product.The product has to be supplied with a stabilized voltage source and the wiring has to be conforming to the security and fire prevention regulations. The product has to be handled with care, avoiding any contact with the pins because electrostatic discharges may damage the product itself.
The use of this product may be dangerous and may have to be avoided in the following areas: Where it can interfere with other electronic devices and where there is risk of explosion such as gasoline stations, oil refineries, etc.
Same cautions have to be taken for the SIM, checking carefully the instruction for its use. Do not insert or remove the SIM when the product is in power saving mode. he system integrator is responsible of the functioning of the installation; therefore, care has to be taken to the external components of the module.
Should there be any doubt, please refer to the technical documentation and the regulations in force. Every module has to be equipped with a original antenna with specific characteristics. The antenna has to be installed with care in order to avoid any interference with other electronic devices and has to guarantee a minimum distance from the body (20 cm). In case of this requirement cannot be satisfied, the system integrator has to assess the installation against the SAR regulation.
