Xcom-232i Cellular modem
Serial cable, 0.25mPower supply cable RJ45-Jack, 0.5m
External antennaSliding pin for mounting the
modem
Mount the different products within the Studer system3.The products should be mounted on a smooth surface.
The distance between the Xcom-232i and the Studer system should not exceed 10 metres.
The distance between the Xcom-232i and the GSM modem is maximum 0.25m.
All cables you need are provided in the set.
ATTENTION!The metallic casing of the 3G cellular modem is connected to the negative battery pole. Therefore it is necessary to isolate its casing from any metallic surface.
Insert the Micro SD card into the computer 9.
Insert the Micro SD card into the Xcom-232i
Xcom connects to the server
Remove the SD card from the computer and insert it into the Xcom-232i. The setup process will start automatically and normally takes 1 second.
When the LED stops blinking red, the setup is finished.
ATTENTION!The Xcom-232i needs to be powered during the setup process. Otherwise, the configuration will not be taken into account.
After the parameters are set and applied, the Xcom–GSM will automatically connect to the server and send a confirmation mes-sage to the RCC. If there is no message, the Xcom is not connected to the server. Use the FAQ at the opposite side of this Quick guide to see what could have gone wrong.

Enter SIM card into the modem Connect the antenna to the modem5.
a. Connect the serial cable between the modem and the Xcom-232i
b. Connect the power supply cable between the modem and the Xcom-232i
c. Connect the communication cable between the Xcom-232i and the installation
Set the terminations7.It is very important to set the terminations correctly for the functionning of the system. With one device in the system the termination on the Studer device should be put to T as in "Terminated". With more than one device in the system all Studer devices should be put to O as in "Open" apart from the devices at the end of the communication chain. These devices should be put to T as in "Terminated".The termination switch next to the two RJ 45 connectors on the Xcom-232i must be set in position T.
Run the Xcom-configurator10.
Choose "GSM" as Xcom mode. Then fill in the required fields. Press "Generate" to save the parameter settings. A window will automatically confirm the successful file generation.
Take note of your GUID file
Close the message box and a text file with your identifier (GUID) will appear. This file is saved on your "Desktop" or in "My doc-uments". The unique identifier (GUID) is required to link your installation with your account on the Xcom portal. Keep it safe.

Network requirements• Sufficient GSM network coverage on
the site of the Xtender system• Network standard: GSM / GPRS / EDGE
/ UMTS / HSDPA / HSUPA / HSPA• Frequencies: 850 / 900/ 1800 / 1900 /
2100 MHz.
Data traffic• At least 2MB data per month• Up to 2MB per day if the datalogger
function is activated. (see table in the FAQ section for further information.)
Eject the SIM card tray, situated close to the antenna connector, by pushing the yellow button next to it. Place the SIM card on the tray and reinsert it.
Turn on the power
Choose GSM mode.
Ask the Internet Service Provider.
Required for some Internet Service Providers, leave blank if not.
Enter the SIM card PIN code. Leave it blank if no code.
Generate the configuration file.

Insertion of the SD card. When inserting an SD card, the
signalisation LED is both red and green simultaneously for
1.5 seconds.
If several of the three states indicated by the red LED light occur simultaneously, they w
ill be displayed in the follow
ing priority order:•

o states indicated by the green LED light occur simultaneously, the signal indicating
comm

).
FAQHow
much data w
ill the Xcom-G
SM use per m
onth?The basic data usage is about 2 M
ega Bytes (MB or M
o) per month. If the Datalogger is enabled,
the quantity of used data will depend on the size of the installation.
My Xcom
-GSM
is well-configured, but doesn’t connect to the server. W
hat should I do?The m
odem needs a lot of pow
er to connect to the server. That is why w
e recomm
end to not exceed 10m
of cable length and to place the modem
the closest possible to the power supply
device (Xtender, VarioTrack or VarioString). Also check that you have activated the SIM card w
ith the SIM
card provider so that it can comm
unicate via the data connection.
I entered the wrong PIN
code and the Xcom-G
SM has blocked m
y SIM card. W
hat should I do?After 3 failed attem
pts, the modem
is blocking the SIM card and requires the PU
K code (PIN
unblocking key) to unlock the card. You need to insert the SIM card in a phone and unlock it by
entering the PUK code.
Xcom-portal
I can’t register my new
installation. What should I do?
To register a new installation, the installation needs to be:
1. Configured correctly and in accordance w
ith the user manual.
2. Have been connected to the server at least once.
In order to validate that the installation has been correctly configured, the Xcom system
info (available on the RCC connected to the system
) should indicate either Xcom-LAN
(for an installation w
ith Xcom-LAN
) or Xcom-GSM
(for an installation with Xcom
-GSM).
Validate that the connection with the installation is w
ell established, control that the RCC displays the m
essage "Server connected" when turning on the installation.
There are no datalogger files in the Datalogger tab. What should I do?
If the installation is new and the M
icro SD card of the Xcom-GSM
is empty, it is norm
al that there are no files on the server.To activate the autom
atic recovery of the Datalogger:1.
The Xcom-GSM
needs to have a software version higher than 1.5.36
2. The datalogger needs to be activated on the Xcom
-GSM (the green LED should be continu-
ously lit).3.
The Xcom-GSM
needs to have a micro SD card inserted continuously.
