Pocket AL I/O
Configuration
3.6.1. Outputs status modification (SMS messages)
Pocket AL I/O outputs can be managed via SMS by authorized users associated to any single output. When the device receives
the message for the outputs management it will check that the SMS is coming from an authorized user and, if so, it will modify the
output status as indicated in the message. Pocket AL I/O will send back a confirmation message that the output status has changed.
Furthermore, using a special syntax, you will be able to change for a few seconds the output status and then automatically the output
status will return to the starting condition. As previuosly described the Status led will signal the SMS reception and transmission.
The user’s command message with the indication ON will pilot the opening of the output contact, while the indication OFF will
pilot the contact closing.
OUTPUTS STATUS MODIFICATION
To modify the output status, send this message to Pocket AL I/O:
#output name ON#
to pilot the opening of output contact
#output name OFF#
to pilot the closing of output contact
Example:
#Tap OFF#
#OUTPUT2 ON#
After this message the device will modify or confirm the output status and then it will send a message with the current status.
Example:
HOME
5)Tap OFF
It is possible to modify the outputs status without any confirmation message:
#output name ON,N# To pilot the opening of the output contact without any notification
#output name OFF,N# To pilot the closing of the output contact without any notification
NOTES:
1. The output name must respect the Upper and Lower Case used in the contact configuration.
Example:
#Tap OFF,N#
#OUTPUT2 ON,N#
OUTPUTS STATUS MODIFICATION AND AUTOMATIC RESTORE
To modify the outputs status for a short time with automatic restore to the previous status, you must send this message to Pocket
AL I/O:
#x output name x#
to modify the output status for x seconds
NOTES:
1. The output name must respect the Upper and Lower Case used in the contact configuration.
2. The x value may have a numerical value included between 1 and 65535 (sec).
After Pocket AL I/O receives the command, it will modify the output current status into the opposite status for the period defined
by x. When the period defined by x is over, Pocket AL I/O will automatically restore the previous status. Pocket AL I/O will notify
the output current status after the automatic restore, then after x seconds.
To remove the notification end the previous message with ,N:
#x output name x,N# to modify the output status for x seconds without any notification
Example:
#Tap 5#
#Gate 1,N#
