SMS Backup Reporting
The PCS250G GPRS Communicator Module supports SMS backup
reporting to an IPRS-7 (IP/GPRS PC Receiver Software) when used
in conjunction with a compatible Paradox control panel.
• SP5500/SP6000/SP7000 v4.76
• EVO192 v2.65
• SP4000/SP65 v4.94
This advanced feature assures continuous communication with
the protected premises. With the addition of a GSM/GPRS
modem, the IPRS-7 software will be able to receive alarm signals
through SMS text messages when GPRS communication is
disrupted. Should the GPRS channel fail to transmit from a
protected premise because of a power outage or internet failure,
a backup SMS will automatically be sent to the IPRS-7 (containing
the same CID information of the reportable event).
Configuring the PCS250G for SMS Backup Reporting
Enter the following command to program the receiver’s SMS
parameters:
1) Send the SMS command:
P[
PASSWORD].SMS.[GSM MODEM TELEPHONE #].[IPRS-7
PASSWORD] (e.g., Padmin.SMS.5145551111.123456)
2) Wait two minutes. The PCS250G will automatically register
to the IPRS-7 receiver. This will automatically program the
Backup IP receiver, IP address, port and port as follows:
IP address = 000.000.000.001
IP password = IPRS7 password
Port number = 00001
