  1. EasyGSM An Overview

  2. Let’s use the GSM network to exchange information • The basic idea • Supported hardware components • Main functions • Alarms • Data acquisition • User commands via SMS • User interface • Windows configurator • Ideas for applications • Let’s make use of the serial interface of Festo PLC’s to control a GSM modem • Let’s make a software to exchange data between Festo controllers itself and also between PLC and mobile phones • Additionally an easy to use interface is required for configuration (not programming!) • EasyGSM was born!

  3. What controller and modem can be used • The basic idea • Supported hardware components • Main functions • Alarms • Data acquisition • User commands via SMS • User interface • Windows configurator • Ideas for applications

  4. Controller: • Festo FEC Compact • Festo FEC Standard • Festo CPX-FEC • PS1-FST • FC38-FST (includes modem) • GSM Modem: • Siemens MC35i Terminal (900/1800 MHz) • Siemens TC35i Terminal (900/1800 MHz) • Siemens TC65 (850/900/1800/1900 MHz) • Wavecom Fastrack (900/1800 MHz) • FC38-FST (900 MHz, includes controller) • Accessories: • Connection cables and antenna What controller and modem can be used • Supported hardware components • Main functions • Alarms • Data acquisition • User commands via SMS • User interface • Windows configurator • Ideas for applications

  5. What can we do with EasyGSM • The basic idea • Supported hardware components • Main functions • Alarms • Data acquisition • User commands via SMS • User interface • Windows configurator • Ideas for applications

  6. Receive a clear text message what happens • Main functions - Alarms • Data acquisition • User commands via SMS • User interface • Windows configurator • Ideas for applications • Send a SMS message to a mobile phone when an alarm occurs • Send a SMS message to another PLC when an alarm occurs • Message and alarm condition (max. 12) can be parameterized easily • Send an acknowledge to the controller from your mobile • Security options (command phones, password, emergency phone) are implemented

  7. Send data via SMS messages • Main functions - Data acquisition • User commands via SMS • User interface • Windows configurator • Ideas for applications • Send data to any SMS recipient (PLC or mobile phone) periodically • Max. 4 function units can be logged • In the receiver station, logging data can be mapped to flag words • An EasyGSM station can be sender and receiver of data logging messages simultaneously

  8. Control your application via SMS • Main functions - User commands via SMS • User interface • Windows configurator • Ideas for applications • Acknowledgement of alarms • Request values from the EasyGSM station • Set values in the EasyGSM station • Predefined list of command phones • Password protection supported

  9. Don’t write programs, configure! • The basic idea • Supported hardware components • Main functions • Alarms • Data acquisition • User commands via SMS • User interface • Windows configurator • Ideas for applications

  10. The wizard will guide you! • User interface - Windows configurator • Ideas for applications • Unicode windows platforms (Windows 2000 and XP) supported • Configuration wizard guides through the configuration • Detailed help system with examples and command overview • Extended online information and maintenance commands • Configuration up- and download

  11. Let’s use the GSM network to exchange information • The basic idea • Main functions • Alarms • Data acquisition • User commands via SMS • User interface • Windows configurator • Ideas for applications

  12. Applications 1: Remote control of a house • Security alarms • Heating control • Door / light control • …..

  13. Applications 2: Merging of a remote water supply to a central control system • Control of the remote station • Alarms to mobile phone of maintenance stuff with acknowledge and emergencycall • Alarms and data to central supervising system

  14. Applications 3: Merging of remote pump stations to a central control system • Control of the remote station • Alarms to mobile phone of maintenance stuff • Alarms and data to central supervising system
