Appendix D XT30/XT50 User Guide 57
MyAccess™ Text Messaging CMDs
Your system may be programmed to allow simple text messages to
be sent to the security system and perform basic user operations.
By texting a message from your cell phone or PDA, the following
actions can be performed: Arm/Disarm, Cancel Alarm, turn Outputs
On/Off, and check Armed Status.
The user that is texting CMDs to the system must have the authority
to perform the CMDs as if it occurred at the keypad. The cell phone
number and user numbers are setup during programming.
After programming is completed, you will receive a welcome message
text from the panel. Write down the phone number that the message
comes from. This will be the number you use to text user operations
to the system.
Note: When texting CMDs listed below, the CMDs can be either
upper or lowercase.
A list of text CMDs can be obtained by texting “help” to the system
phone number. Store this number in your cell phone and write the
number on the Quick Reference Wallet Card located at the back of
this manual.
