4 Channel Switch with Input GSM Module Phone Remote Control Switch

U.FL/IPX Connector to RP SMA Female Adapter - Pigtail RG 178 Cable

Ok so why the SMA Female adapter? That’s because the Antenna that comes with the GSM box is not very big and if you want to use an old Wifi router Antenna then you need to convert the cable as it will need the centre pin as GSM and Wifi Antenna differ by this pin.
Over all very impressed with the GSM box, after setup you text “ZZ” to it (Found the ZZ (Turn on) and ZS (Turn off) commands not listed in the manual) but my son had fitted an older version to his 75 and we just tried the commands and they work great otherwise its R1on etc.
Car texts back “Heater Started” etc so can’t wait for the cold weather now

Do you have the GSM programmed so that the cabin heater comes on after approx 5 minutes, if so would you do a test for me please ? Start the heater with ZZ, let relay 2 bring on the cabin heater after 5 minutes and then switch off with ZS, leave a short while then start again with ZZ and tell me if relay 2 works a second time bringing on the cabin heater or does it fail to come on ?
