As said above, you have not said what GSM timer unit you are using, so R1ON may not be correct It isn’t for mine.
For others it is ZZ to start and ZS to stop

I bought mine used from someone on here as a lewisrendal unit, and as said mine starts timer with RT and stops with RS. Also if I telephone it rather than text it just switches FBH until I call it again.

Have you tried the above commands or calling, rather than texting the unit - does it wake up?

Goldrover · 31st May 2020, 17:46

Calling does nothing, haven't tried other commands like yours ,will try again tomorrow.

Cheers Dave

Still no joy unit lights up it will not switch on fbh, am I missing
something simple.

Have you the instructions for the GSM?

Is lewisrendall still doing GSM's?

Using the "how to guide" on here following the instructions
given, sim card is okay as I've removed from unit and tested
it in a phone.
