INITIAL POWERING ON OF THE DEVICE

MyAlarm2 is supplied in “shipping mode”. This mode prevents any unnecessary discharge of the battery during transport as well as any accidental switch- ons.
To exit this mode, simply power the device via the cable supplied.
N.B.: During “shipping mode” the power button is disabled.

ON/OFF BUTTON AND SCROLL DISPLAY BUTTON
MyBoat is equipped with a PWR button located on the top left side (front panel view). Pressing this button turns the module on and off. To switch it off, hold the PWR key down for a few seconds.
MyBoat is also equipped with a SCR button, located on the top right side (front panel view). Pressing this key displays the parameters.

MICRO USB PORT AND POWER SUPPLY
The device has a micro USB connector on the left side of its enclosure, which can be used for configuration, firmware updates and to recharge the internal battery.
To recharge the internal battery, use:
– the 12 V power supply (supplied) by connecting the cables to the + and – terminals (GND).
– a PC via the micro USB port with a standard cable.
Power supply through the USB jack is not suitable for fixed installations, or configurations where relays and/or digital inputs are used.

AUTO POWER-OFF
If the display shows “LOW BAT”, it means that the internal battery is low, after 60 seconds the device switches off automatically.
To restore the battery charge to an appropriate value, recharge the device using one of the recommended modes.

INSERTING THE SIM CARD AND SD CARD
INSERTING THE SIM CARD
MyAlarm2 has a slot for mini SIM located in the right side of the enclosure.
To insert the card in its corresponding slot, make sure the metal contacts are facing right (as seen in the figure).

INSERTING THE SD CARD
MyAlarm2 is equipped with an SD card input that can be used to update the device’s firmware and the information and connection parameters with the world’s best known  telephony operators.
Note: DO NOT REMOVE THE CONTENT OF THE SD CARD PROVIDED. THIS MAY RESULT IN FAILED DATA CONNECTION WITH  THE SERVICE.
MyAlarm2. The input for micro SD card is located on the right side of the enclosure. To insert the SD card in its corresponding slot, make sure the metal contacts are facing right (as seen in the figure).

ASSEMBLY REGULATIONS

The device has been designed for vertical installation or on a DIN IEC EN 60715 omega rail. Avoid mounting the device inside metal cabinets or on top of heat-generating equipment.

INSTALLATION ON DIN IEC EN 60715 RAIL AND WALL FIXING

As shown in the figure on the side:

1. Insert the hooks of the support for DIN IEC EN 60715 rail into the corresponding slots on the back of the container.
2. Hook the support to the DIN IEC EN 60715 rail.

Alternatively:

1. Through the two holes on the support for DIN IEC EN 60715 rail it is possible to fix it to the wall with the two anchors supplied.
2. MyAlarm2 can be fixed to the support by inserting the hooks of the support into the slots on the back.

ASSEMBLY RULES FOR VERSION WITH GPS (OPTIONAL)
For optimal reception of the GPS signal given by the satellites, MyAlarm2 should be positioned in an area not covered by metal structures. If this is not possible or if the  satellite reception is no good, an optional external antenna with 3m cable (code A-GPS) is available. Follow the procedure supplied with the package for the installation of the external antenna.

SAFETY INFORMATION

MyAlarm2 has a terminal block inside its enclosure. To access the internal terminal block of the device, unscrew the screw at the centre of the black cover positioned at the bottom of the enclosure and lift up. In the side figure, the cover has been removed.
IMPORTANT: With the relay card, mobile wiring of cables connected to terminals is not permitted. To make the cables from the terminals safe, use the break-out passages in the back of the enclosure. When the wiring is complete, fasten the protective cover on the device with the screw to prevent any accidental contact.
