SMS Notifications
If
SMS Notification
is enabled by the customer, X-Link reports certain events via
SMS to a list of user-entered phone numbers (
SMS Notify Phone)
. The purpose of
this feature is to notify the customer that a major event has transpired at the
station.
SMS notifications are meant to be sent to a customer's cell phone. They are
meant to be immediately read by a person (rather than a computer, like Sutron
WIN). SMS notifications are the way for a customer to receive notice a station
in alarm on his cell phone.
The following events cause notifications:
Alarms: Details such as which measurement went into alarm and the
measurement reading
Station Rebooted: The time the station rebooted is sent along with the kind
of reboot (power on, watchdog reset, upgrade, etc).
Recording on: When recording is started, a SMS message will be sent. Then
the recording is turned off, no SMS is sent.
Tx Bad: A scheduled transmission failed.
SDI-12 sensor failure: An SDI-12 reading has failed. This notification is sent
only the first time the sensor fails and only once a day. The value logged is
the index of the measurement that failed.
All notifications have the same format. As only one SMS is sent per notification,
not all the data may fit. Here are some examples:

The station name is on the first line of the message.
