SMS messages to cell phones

DECT Messenger can send SMS messages to cell phones. The

interface to the cell phone provider can be a modem, or a box that

behaves like an actual cell phone with SIM card.

This option is mainly used as an alternative device. If a message to a

DECT handset is not acknowledged, the message can be forwarded

to a cell phone.

• E-mail messages

DECT Messenger can send e-mail, using SMTP, to any e-mail server.

• Digital output to control relays or similar equipment

In the event of an alarm, the relay contacts can be used to control

equipment such as lamps, door-contacts, or hooters. Contacts are

used as alternative devices (overflow) in case a message is not

confirmed.

•

ESPA 4.4.4 pager protocol

DECT Messenger can send messages to paging equipment using the

ESPA 4.4.4 protocol.
