Master Cell Phone Numbers –
Two cell phone numbers can be programmed directly into the
Omniguard. A text message will be sent to each phone number when
the Omniguard enters Normal operation and when an Alarm condition
occurs. The Message Rate setting determines the minimum time
between Alarm notification messages, this is to prevent frequent
messages if the unit is going in and out of the Alarm condition.
Phone numbers programmed directly into the Omniguard will also
receive a Daily Summary report, indicating how long the Omniguard
was in Normal operation, the number of alarms and the total time the
unit was in the Alarm condition. The Daily Summary is sent at 5:30pm
each day unless a Notify List has been selected (see below).
Notify Lists –
In addition to the two Master Cell Phone Numbers, the Omniguard can
also send alerts to personnel contained in a Notify List. The Omniguard
can store up to four Notify Lists, only one can be active at a time.
A Notify List contains a list of wireless phone numbers and e-mail
addresses for a specific group of off-site personnel. Each Notify List
allows different phone numbers and/or e-mail addresses for Alarm
and Normal Operation notification and for Reports. The Lists also
allow the report notification time to be changed.
Notify Lists can only be created and programmed into
the Omniguard using the Omniguard Communications
PC software. See the Help that comes with the
software for more information on setting up Notify
Lists.
Request Job Site Status via Cell Phone or E-mail –
It is possible to request status information from an Omniguard
connected to a cellular wireless modem. A text message or e-mail is
sent to the Omniguard which replies with the report type requested.
The available reports include a Daily Summary, overall Job Summary,
Current Status and Settings.
To g et a comp lete list of reports the Omniguard can provide send a text
message or e-mail with a “0” (zero) in the body of the message.
Text mess ages sent to the Omniguard must be in
the “short message” (SMS) format and are sent to
the phone number of the wireless modem. E-mail
messages sent to the Omniguard must be in plain
text format and should be sent to the e-mail address
provided by the wireless service provider. The
message format is shown below, where “nnnnnnnnnn”
is the 10-digit phone number of the cellular modem,
with area code first (no hypens or spaces).
