sending second alarming SMS to supervisor 3. If the reminder delay is zero, then alert gateway will
escalate SMS alarming to second level 5 minutes after dry contact no.1 is closed. The alarming
sequence is as follow:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Looking at the two examples above, a 1 minute delay is assigned to the last identity. (Refer to the
engineer 3 in example #1 and supervisor 3 in example #2). A non-zero delay is needed at the last alarm
group identity to enable an alarm reminder for the group. Without such 1 minutes delay, the 10 minutes
reminder will be ignored in example #1, therefore, engineers 1 to 3 will only receive 1 alarm SMS. For
example #2, the alarm reminder still applies for engineer 1 to 3 as there is a delay of 5 minutes assigned
to the next alarm group but no longer for supervisor 1 to 3. The alarming terminates after sending one
alarm SMS to supervisor 1 to 3.
