Alarm Communicator Installlation Manual SMS Command and Control Functions
23
The User can send just the partition number or the complete label.(e.g., “Away arm Partition 2 1234” is treated the same as “away arm
2 1234 ”).
The SMS Message format is in 3 parts: Command, Partition Label (or only the partition number), and Access Code.
• If an Access Code is included in the message, it is sent to the control panel for validation, along with the requested function.
• If the panel is configured to require an Access Code and the code is not sent (or invalid) the panel will fail the function (unsuccess-
ful).
• If the panel fails the function, an SMS response message is sent to the user. The SMS response will echo the command sent, followed
by the label “unsuccessful”. (e.g., “night arm partition 2 1234 unsuccessful”).
• The partition label or partition number may be excluded from the SMS request in a single partition system (e.g., disarm 9123).
NOTE: The Cellular phone number can be viewed in Section [996] or by User entering *6 [<] [>] “Cellular Phone No.” at the keypad.
An Access Code is required for all SMS commands, except Help.
