Note on SIM cards: Any valid GSM sim card can be used. Both contract and Pre-pay types will work,
although contract SIMs are better for systems with alarm signalling as there is no chance of credit running out
when an alarm activation needs to be signalled. If the GSM module is to be used for remote servicing, then a
Data-enabled SIM card must be used. Most service provider can supply this service on contract SIMs and
will issue a separate data number. This data number should be used for remote servicing when dialling into the
panel.
All GSM programming is performed through menu 56.5.
