PUBLICATION ADDENDUM
DIGITAL CELLCAST - GSM VERSION.
The Digital Cellcast has been updated to accommodate a new GSM cellular phone module (refer to Figure 1A). The
new version is slightly larger than the previous version and is equipped with additional status LEDs. For domestic
customers, the unit is pre-activated. This allows the unit to be used directly from the box.
FIGURE 1A. THE MARTI DIGITAL CELLCAST – GSM VERSION
Operation of the GSM version is identical to the present model with one exception. The GSM version has the ability
to dial all telephone digits during a connection for remote control operation. Previously, the unit was limited to
remote control keys A, B, C, and D. Figure 2A presents the GSM version Digital Cellcast status indicators. Refer
to Figure 2A for a description of the indicators.

GSM ACTIVATION AND SET-UP
WARNING: SOME OF THE PROCEEDURES THAT ARE DESCRIBED IN THE FOLLOWING
SECTION SHOULD NOT BE DONE UNLESS YOU ARE TOLD TO DO SO BY MARTI TECHNICAL
SERVICE OR YOUR CELLULAR PROVIDER.
READ AND BECOME FAMILIAR WITH THE INFORMATION AND PRIOR TO CONTACTING YOUR
CELLULAR PROVIDER.
MAKE SURE THAT YOU ARE USING THE CORRECT INSTRUCTIONS BASED ON THE TYPE OF
PHONE THAT YOU ARE USING.
Unless requested otherwise, the GSM phone will be activated when shipped. If the phone is not activated, use the
following instructions to activate your new GSM DIGITAL CELLCAST. It is not necessary to take the unit into
your cellular company service center. Here are the steps to take and the information needed.
Call or visit the desired provider. Establish a new account, or transfer service from one of your existing cellphones.
Make sure that your provider supports the type of Digital Cellcast you plan to use. Your provider will issue a SIM
Card that will be installed in your DIGITAL CELLCAST. If you are transferring an account, you should be able to
just swap the SIM from your existing phone to the DIGITAL CELLCAST.
Inform your provider that you will be using an existing phone and tell them what type of phone you have. You will
find the information for your specific type of phone listed on a label attached to the bottom of the unit. Generally,
your GSM phone should be quite easy to set up, as all of the information needed should be included in the SIM card.
SIM CARD INSTALLATION
How to install the SIM Card.
If your SIM card is already installed, skip the following procedure. If you don’t have a SIM card, contact your
network service provider. The GSM module within the DIGITAL CELLCAST requires a Subscriber Identifier
Module (SIM) for normal operation. The service provider supplies a SIM card, which carries the account
information needed to operate the system. The SIM compartment is located on the bottom of the DIGITAL
CELLCAST unit. To install the card, proceed as follows:

panel on the phone. Once this second panel is removed you will have access to the SIM card compartment.
(See figure 3A above)
3. Slide the SIMLOCK towards the rear-panel. (See figure 4A below)
4. Raise the SIMLOCK up to receive the SIM Card.
5. Line up the SIM card with the arrows on the SIM compartment. Also, the beveled corner on the card
matches the beveled corner on the SIM card compartment socket.
6. Gently insert the SIM card in the Slot. See Figure 4A below.
7. Close the SIM LOCK and gently push it towards the front of the unit. The SIMLOCK should close fairly
easily, so do not force it. Recheck the alignment if you are having difficulty.

SYSTEM SET-UP
The DIGITAL CELLCAST is equipped with a SYSTEM SET-UP menu. This menu is typically used only for
TDMA units. For GSM units, the SYSTEM SET-UP menu is typically not used. If required, the operator can use
SYSTEM SET-UP to send DTMF control commands to the phone. If SYSTEM SET-UP operation is required,
perform the following steps.
1. Attach the antenna. (Always attach the antenna before using your DIGITAL CELLCAST or you can
damage the unit – it is a good habit to always attach the antenna so if you switch from landline to cellular,
the unit is ready.)
2. Attach the power cables. If you are using battery power, make sure the battery is fully charged.
3. Attach a headset or speaker and microphone to the line out so you will be able to monitor the system.

4. Turn the unit on using the power switch. After the unit powers up and the Version Number screen has been
displayed. Check the status indicators. (See Figure 2A.)
After the initial startup and version number screen you will see the following screen.
FIGURE 4A. START-UP SCREEN MENU REFERENCE 2

1. Enter a programming code using the DIGITAL CELLCAST keypad
2. Press the EXIT button and return to the previous menu.
NOTE: This screen offers no editing capability so a mistake cannot be corrected. If you make a mistake, push
EXIT. This will take you back to the menu show in Figure 4A. Then reenter the set-up screen and start over. Clear
the screen. (THIS DOES NOT ERASE ERRORS, IF YOU MAKE AN ERROR, YOU WILL HAVE TO EXIT
AND SELECT SETUP AGAIN)
