8.1 Introduction
The AL2-GSM-CAB can be used to connect α2 Series Controllers to a normal or GSM
modem. The AL2-GSM-CAB can transfer Short Message Service (SMS) data to a GSM
modem for transmission to mobile phones and mail addresses or can facilitate remote
monitoring functions and program transfers via normal modems. RS-232C communication to a
personal computer can also be accomplished if an adaptor or cable is used.
Further information can be found in the
α2 Programming Manual and α Software Manual.
Note;
• This cable cannot be used for any other applications.
• This cable attaches only to the
α2 Series Controller (Model: AL2-14MR-*,AL2-24MR-*).
• Simultaneous communication through both ports of the
α2 Series Controllers may result
in a damaged program or a malfunction in the controller.
