User's Manual

The messenger must know what number to dial to access the provider. (This is not the
extension number of the cell phone [GSM phone] to which the message must be sent.)
As example, for PROXIMUS, this is number 00475161622.
• Initialization string
This is the initialization string for modem initialization. The string depends on the type of
modem that you use. A generic modem initialization string can be for example:
AT&C0S0=3. Consult the modem reference guide for your modem.
• Retry Interval
If a message cannot be delivered to the Provider (for example, because the modem line
is busy), the system tries again after the specified time period.
• Send Depth
DECT Messenger collects a number of messages before sending the messages. Send
Depth determines how many messages are collected, before making a connection to the
provider. Default = 1, which means that messages are processed as soon as they
arrive.
• Send Time
Time delay before processing received messages. If the Send Depth is set to a value
higher than 1, eaSYNC waits to send the messages until the number of messages
received equals the Send Depth value; that can take a long time, particularly during off-
peak hours. To prevent DECT Messenger from waiting for a long period, you can specify
a Send Time. After a message arrives, eASYNC waits for the number of seconds specified
in this field, and DECT Messenger sends the message, ignoring the Send Depth value.
• Alarm Priority for DTMF confirmation
This is a priority threshold. If the priority that comes with the alarm is higher than this
threshold, the alarm requires a confirmation from external. If the Priority is lower that this
threshold, the alarm does not require a confirmation: successfully sending the message
to the SMS Provider makes that the alarm is withdrawn, and not repeated anymore.
V.24 - RS232 connections (eCAP, eESPA)
The eCAP and the eESPA modules allow you to connect RS232 devices to DECT Messenger.
There is a significant difference between the eCAP module and the eESPA module. Therefore,
these modules are explained separately in the following subsections.
