Notifications
The Notifications feature (see Figure 2.2.32 ) provides a means for the transmitter to issue emails or
texts (SMS messages) triggered by user defined alarm events. If you use this feature, you must also
configure an email server (see
Email Server on page 2.2.58 ).
Figure 2.2.32: Settings - Notifications
To configure the notifications feature, perform the following steps:
1. Pre-existing notifications are displayed in the Notifications list (e.g., “Audio Loss”). Click Add
to create a new item for notification, click Edit (after highlighting an existing item) to edit an
existing item or click Delete to erase an item.
2. When you click Add or Edit, the screen in Figure 2.2.33 on page 2.2.57 will appear. This screen
allows you to add or edit a Notification Name, Recipient Email(s) (use a semi-colon to separate
multiple email addresses, as applicable), and define the alarm list by Device type. Add or
remove alarms by moving them (using the > and < arrow buttons) from the Available Alarms
list to the Selected Alarms list. An email is issued when any alarm in the Selected Alarms list is
active.
Text (SMS) Messaging : In the Recipient Email field, you can enter a standard email address
to initiate an email or you can enter a mobile phone number and SMS gateway to initiate a
text (SMS message). The email-to-SMS text format is mobilenumber@ mobile_gateway (e.g.,
5551234567@txt.bell.ca). Check with your mobile carrier to determine the proper gateway
address for your area.
3. When complete click the Send Test Notification button to send a test email to the associated
email address. Click Save to accept changes or the Cancel button to discard changes and
return to the Notifications page.
