Send SMS Message
You can configure emails to be sent when an event occurs and can
customize the message.
Messages consist of a combination of free text and PX placeholders. The
placeholders represent information which is pulled from the PX and
inserted into the message.
A supported modem, such as the Cinterion
®
GSM MC52i modem, must
be plugged in to the PX in order to send SMS messages.
Note: The PX cannot receive SMS messages.
For example:
[USERNAME] logged into the device on [TIMESTAMP]
translates to
JQPublic logged into the device on 2012-January-30 21:00
