icon comments

If you suspect the GSM module is defective, contact our helpdesk. You can reach us Monday to Friday, 8:30 a.m. – 5:00 p.m., at +31 174 794024. During your call, we will help determine whether the problem lies with the GSM module, the alarm dialler, or a setting.

For quick service, take the following steps:

If the defect is confirmed and the device must be returned: how does it work?

Step 1: The helpdesk will issue you an RMA number for the return. Write this number on the address label and/or include it on a note inside the box.

Step 2: Write down and enclose the Octalarm login details (username and password), or add a tag from a contact with Administrator or Installer authority.

Step 3: Do you have a replacement alarm dialler available?

  • No, proceed to step 4;
  • Yes, your customer's alarms remain protected.
    • If your customer has an active Octalarm Connect subscription:
      • The helpdesk will transfer the active subscription to the replacement (temporary) device;
      • Your customer will stay protected by alarms;
      • Then continue to step 4.
    • If there is no active subscription:
      • Proceed to step 4.

Step 4: Return the following items:

  • The dialler
  • The GSM module
  • The SIM card (if supplied by Adésys or if instructed by the helpdesk)

Send the package to:
