Each numeric key is associated with three
or more letters of the alphabet, or with
punctuation and other special characters.
Successive keypresses cycle through the
various characters associated with each
key. For instance, press the [5] key once
to display the number "5" on-screen.
Press it a second time (while the cursor is
in the same position) to display the letter
"J". The third keypress displays the letter
"K" and the fourth keypress displays the
letter "L". Press the key one more time to
return to the number "5".
Each of the arrow keys as well as the
[Back] and [Enter] keys perform specific
functions within the Pager String Setup
Screen.
Press the up arrow key to delete the
character at the cursor position.
Press the left arrow key to move the
cursor one space to the left.
Press the right arrow key to move the
cursor one space to the right.
Press the down arrow key to cancel out of
the pager string entry process.
Press the [Back] key to insert a blank
space at the cursor position.
Press the [Enter] key to confirm the pager
string as displayed on-screen.

Pager String Setup Screen
Constructing a Pager String
A comma (,) in the pager string
signifies a four-second pause. All
pager strings must be terminated
with a pound sign (#). If the
character "B" is entered in the
message body, the controller will
substitute this letter with the last
five digits of the unit serial number
when sending the message.
In the below example, the controller
dials the specified number (1-212-
555-2368) and waits eight seconds
(two commas) before sending the
first portion of the message. In this
case, the serial number of the unit
(123456) has been manually entered
as the first portion of the message.
Following another eight-second
pause (two more commas) the next
portion of the message is sent (12).
The pool service professional
receiving the page would then be
able to reference the serial number
and error condition to identify the
specific controller, its location, and
the condition that triggered the
message.
The information that a pager
message can convey is rather more
limited than a modern cellular text
message. Pager messages may only
include numeric characters, and it is
therefore necessary to be creative in
constructing a meaningful message
regarding the controller status.
The pool service professional
receiving a notification via pager
would likely wish to know which
controller sent the message, and
under what condition the message
was sent. For instance, assume
pager 2 has been programmed to
send out a message when the ORP
drops below a specified level. The
body of the message might identify
the controller by serial number
along with a numeric code that
correlates to a low ORP condition
(the number "12" has been
arbitrarily chosen for this purpose.)
The maximum length of a pager
string is 29 characters. This
includes the pager number, the
embodied message, and any
additional control characters. The
first portion of the pager string
represents the number of the pager
to be contacted. Following the
pager number is the message body.
