5 Contacts
Contacts can be SMS users
’ or host/server’s addresses. The MesCom supports any
combination of up to 6.
A contact has a number of attributes to define how events will be transmitted to it and what
commands can be received from it.
In addition to the 6 User contacts, the MesCom has some system contacts. Some OPTION
commands may return ADDNUM Successful as confirmation they the command was
successful not the usual option value.
All types of users are added and removed in the same way.
Please Note contacts are handled differently in MesCom2 compared to the original
MesCom.
