Monitoring Station SV 279 PRO
33
SVAN 979 has two alarm modes: simple and advanced. Simple alarm mode is based
on the configuration of the I/O port in the
Multifunction I/O
window (
path: <menu> /
Instrument / Multifunction I/O
) in which the user can set the trigger for alarm output
signal with respect to the threshold level and additionally enable sending alarm
messages by SMS to one number and/or e-mail also to one address.
Advanced alarm mode enables extended functionality and requires the use of
+ or SvanNET to set up alarms. In this case, the user can configure far more
complex alarms (e.g. send an alarm when the level of source exceeds 75 dB during at
least 10 seconds but only on weekdays). Additional extension is that alerts can be send
to more than one phone number / e-mail address (for more details see Appendix L:
Description of Advanced Alarms in SVAN 979 to the SVAN 979 User Manual).
The E-mail alarming requires the credentials of the e-mail server to be used for it,
including the SMPT server name, the port number, sender name, login and password.
The content of the message is created automatically and the user can add his own
information to it.
Note: SvanNET provides also an e-mail service.
The use of SvanNET simplifies the configuration
of the station by only switching on the SvanMail
position in the SVAN 979 configuration menu
(path: <Menu> / Instrument / Wireless Transfer /
E-mail Settings).
The SV 279 PRO stations support SSL (Secure Socket Layer) connections to e-mail
servers that require encryption.
Note: SvanNET e-mail service uses SSL connection.
It should be noted that SMS alarming does not require the modem to establish internet
connection and, as such, the SIM card does not require any data transfer plan as
sending SMS messages is done entirely over GSM network. E-mails still require
access to the internet.

SMS command exchange
SMS command exchange allows any command from the
Appendix A. Remote Control
to the SVAN 979 User Manual
to be exchanged via SMS. By sending a command as
specified by the said document, the SV 279 PRO can provide a response. This feature
is particularly useful when retrieving the current state of the station.
Like SMS alarming, this feature does not require an active internet connection.
The functionality is useful tool in some situations. In particular, to send
“Reset” or
“#7,RM;” (reset communication) command when there is a loss of remote
communication.
The functionality does not require any additional configuration as is always active when
modem is on.
