CL5000 OPERATING Instructions
Your CL5000 is a very powerful LTE communications gateway that can monitor and provide remote control from any cellular
phone. In order to make it as accessible and as simple to use as possible, we have provisioned CL5000 at the factory to
perform the more common functions "out of the box". It has many capabilities that we do not mention here, so contact us for
any special requirements. First follow the separately provided instructions for the installation of the CL5000 into your
application.
Loading SIMCARD
If your CL5000 did not ship with a SIMCARD. NOTE: YOU MUST disconnect all external power supply connections when
changing SIMCARD.
Remove screws.
Make sure the Battery is disconnected.
Locate the SIMCARD holder on the modem sub-board. Gently push an activated simcard into the holder until
it clicks and holds in place.
Next, take the small white plug from standby battery and slide it into the power socket.
This only goes in one way. Do NOT force.
You are now ready to load the phone numbers. Test with just one cellphone first, then load others later as
required.
Set up your phone to send a text message (SMS) TO the phone number issued with the SIMCARD that
you just loaded into CL5000. The SIMCARD phone number will have been issued along with the SIM card
by the network provider. The first message you must send CL500 is your cell phone number. Send the
following text message::
ADDPHONEn<>88888888<>+(country code)(area code)(your cellphone number) (n is ph 1 to ph 4.)
eg : ADDPHONE3 88888888 +121234567899 (This is loaded as ph # 3)
Spaces are indicated by <>. Don’t insert any spaces in the phone number itself. The eight 8's are a factory
password that you should change later.
Now send this off CL5000 should respond with a confirmation message. If no response is received within
about 3 minutes, it means it either did not receive the message or there was a syntax error in the command.
If this worked, you can close the unit up again carefully.
ADDING PHONE NUMBERS
You can store up to four phone numbers. Add them using
ADDPHONEn<>PASSWORD<>+(country code)(area code)(your cellphone number)
eg : ADDPHONE3 88888888 +121234567899 (this is loaded as Ph. # 3)
LOADING the SIMCARD PHONE NUMBER
Most SIMCARDS do not have a phone number stored internally, so you need to load the number assigned to the SIMCARD
by the network provider. Do this by sending CL5000 the following command:
2
DEVPH<>+(country code)(area code)(SIMCARD phone number)
eg: DEVPH +121234567899
If you don’t add the Device Phone number, CL5000 will still work, but the TIME will not be updated from the network
.
LIST REGISTERED PHONES
To check the four recipient phone numbers stored in CL5000. Send the following command:
GETPH
REMOVING a PHONE NUMBER
Send the following text to your CL5000
RMPH <>PASSWORD<> +(country code)(area code)(phone number) (n is ph # 1 to 4)
eg: RMPH2 <>88888888 +12141234567899 ( this removes ph # stored as #2)
To change a number, you can load the new number over the old using ADDPHONE. If there is no room left, CL5000 will
advise with a message.
CHANGING PASSWORD

PASSWORD<>OLD password<>NEW password
