1 | Overview
The B443 provides IP communication over the GSM (GPRS/EDGE/
UMTS/HSPA+) digital cellular network by directly connecting the
module to the control panel. The control panel can be confi gured to

messaging.
The B443 module requires a SIM card with active cellular service
to communicate. Bosch Cellular service and SIM cards are
available in some countries. Consult your Bosch representative for
details.

3 | Diagnostic LED descriptions
At power up, all module LEDs activate for several seconds, indicating
proper insertion. The Signal LEDs then turn off until the module
registers on the cellular network. Registering a new module might take
up to 3 min.
Check the LED display to ensure a good signal strength level, and
adjust the antenna location as required. The signal strength LEDs
momentarily turn off to indicate the module has measured and
updated the signal strength status. Refer to Table 3.1.
