Testing the programmed numbers
Once the unit is programmed, the
TESTCELL
command will test all the programmed
numbers. Simply send the word
TESTCELL
(one word, in capital letters) to the cell
number of the unit. The CM705E will send a text message to all programmed numbers.
The phone sending TESTCELL will receive the message
“Please verify that a Status
text msg is received at all programmed phone numbers.”
Sensors
At boot up, the unit will search for attached sensors. The unit will never alarm on a
sensor it does not detect at boot up. If you need to add a sensor, turn off the CM705E,
wire in the sensor, then turn the unit back on. If you need to remove a sensor, remove
the wires from the unit, and reboot the unit. If you do not, the CM705E will alarm on the
open sensor. It will also alarm if it detects a wiring short.
Checking Status
You can send a text message to the phone number of the CM705E to get the current
status of all inputs. Send
Status?
to the unit’s phone number.
Daily Status
The CM705E can be programmed to send a daily status text message. If all sensors
are within limits, the daily stats will say all sensors are within limits. If one or more
sensors are out of limits, it will report the out of limits sensors and the condition
(temperature, humidity, open, closed, etc.).
What is an alarm condition?
An alarm condition is anytime a sensor exceeds the upper or lower limit for longer than
the programmed time delay. Once an alarm occurs, the buzzer will start beeping (three
loud beeps every 30 seconds); alarm text messages will be sent from the CM705E
immediately. Data Capture software will also send text and emails.
When the sensor is back in limits for 5 minutes, the CM705E will also send a “back
within limits” text message. (The 5 minutes is not user adjustable) **
Power outages alarms are treated in the same manner as temperature sensors. If the
power out delay time is set to 10 minutes, the CM705E will send the alarm text after 10
minutes of continuous power loss. When power is restored for 5 minutes, the CM705E
will send a “power is back on” text. The “power back on” text time delay is not user
adjustable.
** If the unit is in alarm, text messages have been sent, and then the unit goes back in
range it must be back in range for five continuous minutes. If it keeps going in and out
of range, the buzzer will sound, depending on your “out of limits” time delay.
