I Just want to use the Turbo as a GSM phone dialer so that when my boat alarm goes off I get a phone call. Seems simple enough right?
So I need to knwo how to connect a NO (normally open) reed switch to the Alarm1 of the Turbo. I'm assuming it will go across PIN 3 and VCC? Or GND? Then when the switch closes it will trigger the Turbo and I get a txt message.
I also need to disable the motion sensor, because it's a boat, it naturally rocks around a bit.
Thanks for your help.
Peter. |

Assuming you have Turbo Motion 2 with Auto Alarm application. Download sources of this app. There is the PINS.txt file with general description of pins usage. It is like following:
| Code: | Opto In_0 IN_CENTRAL (TM2 only)
Opto In_1 IN_ALARM#1 (TM2 only)
Opto Out_0 OUT_BLOCK (TM2 only)
Opto Out_1 CONFIG_OPTO_OUT_1_PULSE or OUT_AIRCON (TM2 only)
P1 IN_CENTRAL (unused for TM2)
P2 IN_ALARM#2
P3 IN_ALARM#1 (unused for TM2)
P4 unused - IN_AIRCON
P5 IN_PANIC (was IN_USER) - for panic btn
P6 OUT_ALARM_BTN (was OUT_USER1) - pulse if alarm detected
P7 OUT_ACTIVATED (was OUT_USER2) - active if activated
P8 OUT_ALARM (was OUT_USER3) - active if alarm detected
P9 OUT_CHARGER - to disconnect charger (about once a day), needed for some phones
P10 unused - OUT_RESET
P11 OUT_AIRCON (unused for TM2 if not CONFIG_OPTO_OUT_1_PULSE) - SMS controlled
P12 OUT_BLOCK (unused for TM2) - SMS controlled
P13 OUT_BRAKE - turn on brake lights before block
RS232:
gnd
rts(out)
cts(in)
rxd(in)
txd(out) |
Here you can see location of each pin.
P3 is unused for TM2.
Alarm1 is located on Opto In_1 port. For any Opto In port you need some power supply (ideally 12V DC) connected via the NO reed switch. The Opto In port is polarity sensitive!
The Alarm2 input is available on P2. Just connect it to GND to activate Alarm2.
Also Alarm1 or Alarm2 must be enabled in setup menu. |

So can I just connect/short P2 and GND with the reed switch, or do I have to put 12v across them? |
