string. Contact Eaton for further assistance. Refer to Worldwide Support on page

► To enable modem communications
1 Connect to the SM65 with DCTools (refer to Communications Options on page
30).
2 Go to Configuration > Communications.
3 Click on C to expand Modem.
4 Set Enable Modem to Enabled.
5 If the SM65 is to report alarms to PowerManagerII then set Alarm Report to Enabled.
 Requires SM65 with v4 software or later. See Viewing Software Version on page 13.
6 Enter the telephone numbers the SM65 is to dial when an alarm is active.
 The SM65 will first dial number 1. If the call fails it will try again after Modem Retry
Interval for the number of times set by Modem Maximum Retries. If the retries fail the
SM65 will try the next number on the list, and repeat for all numbers.
