The GSM units have 2 relays, when you send a text relay 1 switches on the FBH. If it is programmed correctly relay 2 will come on after 5 minutes and switch on the ATC in the car but yes the ATC has to be left on when you switch the ignition off on the previous occasion the car was used
Additional wiring back to the ATC is needed and there is a how to on this forum which gives the detail.
One word of warning is that some of the early GSM units sold by the seller who supplied quite a few to members on here were faulty and relay 2 did not work so that is always a possibility to consider, which can be overcome by using a timer relay.
