6.15 SMS Message Sending
The GSM SMS message sending is activated by setting the
SMS Enable
program parameter to
1
. When the GSM SMS mode is activated, the PC connection will not work. If a local PC connection is
necessary,
Modem Enable
,
SMS Enable
and
MODBUS Address
parameters should be set to 0.
When a fault condition occurs, the unit will compose an SMS message and will send it to the
second and third phone numbers. Two SMS messages are sent in total.
The maximum number of alarms transmitted in a SMS message is 4. This limitation is due to the
maximum length of an SMS message which is 160 characters.
A sample GSM SMS message is given below:
DKGxxx <SITE-ID>
STOP :LOW OIL PRESSURE SW.
END OF ALARM LIST
The first line of the message carries information about the unit type and the site identity string.
This line is intended for the identification of the genset sending the SMS message.
Each following line will give one fault information. The message will always be terminated by the
“
END OF ALARM LIST
” string.
When the message is sent, the existing alarms will be masked, causing the audible alarm relay to
release and preventing consecutive GSM SMS messages. Any new upcoming alarm will result in a new
GSM SMS message. The new message will indicate all existing alarms, even masked ones.
The necessary GSM modem cable will be supplied by DATAKOM. This is the same cable as
PSTN (land) modems.
