- Keep a clear view of the work area at all time before using, check it is safe to do so
Before maintenance intervention on any remote controlled equipment
- Do not open the receiver enclosure unless you are qualified.
- Disconnect all electrical power from the equipment.
- Check the enclosure and cable for damage regularly, do not use if there is evidence of damage
Electrical Safety
ISOLATE the mains electricity supply before removing the cover and observe any relevant safety information.
- Maintenance to the product that involves removal of the cover should only be carried out by a competent person or qualified electrician.
- Ensure adequate protection on the Load circuit
- Refer to Product Datasheet for MAX operating Load.
- Product must be installed in accordance with the local country electrical regulations.
- A current limiting supply must be used in accordance with the datasheet
- 110-230Vac Power Supply Fused 5A
- 2 No Volt Switch inputs
- 6 Outputs Relay Changeover Contacts 240Vac 5A
- Enclosure IP56
- No PC required.
- SIM Card Bundled

Supplied as a self contained two way Remote Control System which provides two ‘no volt’ switch detect inputs and 6 changeover relay contacts as outputs. The system comes supplied in an IP56 Enclosure with integral 12V power supply. Containing industrial standard ‘DIN Rail’ modules
Additional Input and Output Modules
The Add-on Modules simply plug into the EZTEXT-DIN Ribbon Connector socket.
Once connected the EZTEXT automatically recognizes them and the additional
inputs and outputs become available to use.
4 x Inputs Module
- 4 x Additional No-Volt Inputs
- Plug ‘n’ Play using ribbon cable supplied
- Up to 4 additional Input Modules can be Daisy Chained to provide 16 additional Inputs
- Inputs are opto-isolated
Part Number Description
725-IP 4 input Add-on Module
4 x Relay Output Module
- 4 x Relay Changeover Contacts
- Connecting ribbon cable supplied
- Up to four Output Modules can be Daisy Chained to provide an additional 16 Outputs.
- Up to 4 x 725-OP can be Daisy Chained to provide 18 outputs.
- Provides a simple extension to the number of Inputs
Part Number Description
725-OP 4 Output Add-on Module
Temperature Measurement Probe Cable
Using the cable adaptor CBA-EZTEMP provides a 1metre plug in cable with
temperature probe. This enables the EZTEXT temperature monitor temperature and
automatically send notification of high and low user selectable trigger level.
Part Number Description
CBA-EZTEMP2 Temperature sensor cable
Optional External Antenna
Using an external antenna can provide a better signal reception than the on- board antenna. Using Cable adaptor CBA-UFLSMA provides a panel mounted SMAconnector for external antenna connection. To connect, carefully unplug the existing antenna UFL and push on the CBA-UFLSMA UFL connector.
ANT-GSM5WM
A compact PCB Antenna for GSM Cellular applications where high performance is
required from a small size. Using the ANT-GSMQB will give optimum range and
reliability to your application
ANT-GSMPUKS-IP67
A compact Antenna for GSM applications where high performance is required
from a small size. The antenna includes a Low Noise Amplifier and is housed in
a rugged low profile UV resistant case, this antenna is compact and resistant
to Vandalism
Part Number Description
ANT-GSMPUK-SMA +3dBm Gain antenna Rugged PUCK
Alternative Antenna
We offer an extensive range of GSM antenna in many shapes and sizes please see
our Website or contact our Sales Dept with your requirements and we will try
to help.
Using EZTEMPR2 Thermocouple
Attach the Thermocouple cable to the Connector marked “SENSE” This is now
ready to use:
Notes:
- Temperatures are measured to 1 Decimal point
- Temperature Triggers can be set to whole number values only
- A hysteresis of –2oC is built into the EZTEXT
Example 1
SET TEMP MAX is set to +30oCAs the actual temperature measured increases,
EZTEXT will trigger ‘over Temperature’ at 30.1oC As the actual temperature
measured decreases EZTEXT will trigger at 27.9oC
Example 2
SET TEMP MIN is set to +10oC As the actual temperature measured decreases,
EZTEXT will trigger ‘under Temperature’ at 9.9oC As the actual temperature
measured increases EZTEXT will trigger ‘Good’ at 12.1oC
Using Additional Input / Output Modules
Input and Output modules can be added in any order by connecting with theRibbon cables supplied. On initial Powerup EZTEXT automatically interrogates and configures additional modules. (all LEDS Flash). After approx. 60seconds the LEDs stop flashing to indicate the module is ready to use
Notes:
- Any combinations of 725-IP and 725-OP modules can be added, the Maximum is four, 725-IP Modules and four 725-OP modules in the ‘Daisy Chan’ link (8 modules in total)
- When using 725-IP / OP modules there are some limitations (compared with the two input and outputs on the ETEXT-DIN)
725-OP Additional 4 Outputs Module
- Each 725-OP module must have a different address Link setting to other 725-OP modules (For the application shown address Link 2 is fitted this sets the outputs to be numbers 7-10)
- Each Relay Changeover contacts Output can only be switched “On” or “Off”.
- Functions such as time delays cannot be used.
- A single telephone OPNUM number applies per output
Example : the number allocated to an output board that you would use to send a text message to activate an output
Insert SIM Card
Please note:
- Insert NANO SIM Card before applying power (standard 3 Volt SIM only).
- The message memory of the SIM card should be clear before it is fitted.
- Ensure that the SIM card has not been PIN code protected!
- Beware of Pay-as-you-go SIM which require regular top-up to remain active.
- It is recommended to bar Incoming voice calls to the SIM card to avoid error messages being sent back to the user. This can be achieved with the service provider.
The SIM card should be inserted into EZTEXT-DIN before applying power
- RF Solutions recommends O2 and Vodaphone SIM card and has carried out extensive testing using the SIM cards we have for these two networks.
- No guarantee can be given for the operation of this product with any network except those that have been tested by RF Solutions.
Connect Inputs/Outputs and Power Connections
The EZTEXT-DIN unit can be powered from 12 to 24Vdc
LED Indication At Start Up
LED Indication After Start Up (Normal Operation)
Error Messages & Factory Reset
There are three error messages
- NO AUTHORISATION Means that EZTEXT did not accept the password
- UNRECOGNIZED COMMAND Password correct but the command isincorrect
- UNRECOGNIZED VARIABLE Password and command OK but the variable data is incorrect
Factory reset:
Hold down the RESET button for approx10 seconds until all LEDs flash, then
release. This will reset EZTEXT to factory default settings and restart.

Notes
Figures refer to maximum supply current required with all components idle.
Figures refer to peak supply current required with all components operating.In
practice internal reservoir capacitance limits the instantaneous peak current
to less than 500 mA. Temperature accuracy +/- 0.5 degrees between –10 to
+80-degree Centigrade +/- 2.0 degrees between –55 to +110-degree Centigrade
