GECON
– Online Printing
The Online function is a universal interface for connecting the ESS and GECON. It allows monitoring for a control
panel with a detailed evaluation of all events based on the principle of analysing the messages using a dictionary of
keywords. The dictionary determines which keywords GECON will respond to. If the dictionary contains the word,
the standard response is to send a text message containing the received message.
An additional setting can be marking a priority message, causing the sending of a text message and ringing the
customer. Such keyword starts with! (exclamation point).
A special keyword is the cancellation command. It cancels the message that would otherwise be sent. Cancellation
word begins with * (asterisk).
Example
Message sent from the control panel: 10:45 off code 45
GECON LITE would normally send this message containing the keyword
‘off’ to SMS, but if you set a cancellation
command for the word 45, the text message will not be sent.
Configuration SMS
abcd print=on W1=off# W2=*code 45#
As for the setting of routing these messages, it is normally mapped online as input 5. It is set by the command VT1
.. VT4 /this applies when G7 = OFF/.
GECON LITE PLUS G7=OFF
Gecon7 G7=ON
Online printing is mapped up to input 5
