The configuration of the SMSC and the communication settings of the SMSC for the
ESME is performed in the SMSC / ESME ( =hf) view. You can find more information
about the individual settings in the online help.
Besides these settings the authorization to send short messages to an ESME ( Send
SMS) can be enabled or disabled for each user via permission set ( =cb).
The use of the SMPP protocol to integrate an SMS server is subject to a licence.
Warning:
In the case of applications designed for emergency calls and personal protection such as fire
alarm systems, nurse light paging systems, alarm systems against attacks or hold-ups, etc.,
text messages may only be used to complement certified alarm systems. Text message alarm-
ing is only compatible with emergency operation if the communication server and the external
alarm source are equipped with a UPS.

External alarms from an alarm server are sent directly to the corresponding destination
phone. No more alarms can be sent to the corresponding phone if the storage location
is full. The alarm server is responsible for ensuring that alarms are delivered.

• Max. length of alarm texts is 160 characters.
• A maximum of 16 alarms can be stored for each user. No more alarms can be deliv-
ered after that.
• Alarms are always routed to the destination defined in the send command; Call For-
warding Unconditional and Call Forwarding on No Reply operations have no effect.
• Several alarm sources can be connected to each communication server.
9. 11. 3. 3 Alarm trigger with ATAS
The ATAS protocol provides convenient possibilities for display on the system phones
(Fox menu) and allows an alarm to be triggered using the Redkey (see "Function Red-
key", page 492). The connection is also monitored, and the connection set-up is pass-
word-protected. To use the ATAS interface you need to set up a user account with an
authorization profile in which the interface access ATAS is enabled. An ATAS licence is
required for enabling the protocol.
