Chapter 1: Introduction
The PCS250 provides Paradox control panels with wireless
communication capabilities to report system events through a
GPRS or GSM network to the IPR512 GPRS/IP Monitoring
Receiver.
The PCS250 can be configured to send system events to the enduser via SMS. All this is achieved via a simple 4-wire serial
connection between the control panel and the PCS250.
The PCS250 can be installed up to 2m (6 ft.) from the panel. An
external antenna can be installed up to 18m (60 ft.) from the
reporting device using an optional antenna and a cable
extension, depending on the local signal strength.

Communication Loss
Upon loss of communication with the panel, the PCS250 LEDs
will behave in the following manner:
1) GPRS or GSM LED displays are off; the SIM card and Signal
Strength LEDs display their status for about 3 seconds.
2) Signal strength LED remains OFF; GSM (green) is turned ON,
followed in turn by GPRS (green), SIM2 (orange) and SIM1
(red). When a LED is ON, all others are off. Each LED lights for
about 20 sec. This sequence is repeated two times.
3) This cycle repeats until communication is restored.

Chapter 6: Upload/Download
Fast upload/download can be configured via WinLoad or NEware
using a GPRS connection. Upload and download can be achieved
on both public and private networks. To find out the type of
provider network you are currently set up on, contact your local
SIM card provider for more information.
Private Network
If your SIM card provider is on a private network, communication
to the PCS250 must first be established via an SMS message.
When the SMS message is sent to the PCS250, the PCS250 will
then initiate a connection with WinLoad. Once communication is
established, firmware upgrades, as well as upload and download
configurations and system programming can begin. Before
beginning any upload/download procedures you must ensure
that the registration parameters of the PCS250 have been set.
Note: It is important that the router used with the PCS250
application (WinLoad and NEware) has been set up for port
forwarding to ensure proper PCS250 system functionality.
