Set a system name for the SMS messages. The default name is “Alarm System”.
Demo SMS message
The information in the SMS message is taken from the system's log. In the demo screen
figure, the time and date indicate when the event was registered in the log, and not when it
was texted.
See more SMS definitions in section 6.6.3, on page 61.
