GENERAL DESCRIPTION
WARNING! This document provides only some essential product information. Refer to 1068 series control
panel manuals for more detailed information.
The module Ref. 1068/458 can be used to connect 1068 control panels to the GSM e/o GPRS telephone
network for sending event notifications in voice or data format (IDP, IDP/IP, SMS protocols) and for the
remote system management by means of a telephone call with vocal menu.
The module is provided with two-band (900/1800 MHz) GSM/GPRS transceiver and it is fitted with an
antenna to be inserted inside control panel. The module implements a vocal synthesis function for reading
