Ladder Logic - Pager Message
Pager Message
Sends a 32-character pager message to up to 12 pager receivers. The pager message can also be sent with
a time and date stamp. Requires driver PAGINGxx.Dxx.
A pager message will initially be sent to the pager receiver(s) configured in Group 1 of the selected pager
sequence. If an acknowledge is received within the time specified in the Wait for Ack field (by writing a 0 to
the acknowledge bit), the sequence is completed and no further action is taken. If an acknowledge is not
received, the same message is then sent to the Group 2 pagers (if any pagers have been configured for
Group 2). If an acknowledge is not received within the Group 2 Wait for Ack time, the message is sent to the
Group 3 pagers. If an acknowledge is not received within the Group 3 Wait for Ack time, the RTU will flag a
fail for RTU250 (RTU250 is reserved for paging statistics) and increment the fail counter. Please see the
topic Example - SMS Pager Messages.
Comment: A 12-character description.
Message: A local register (#R1 - #R2048 specified on Line 1) or up to 2 lines of 16 characters. A local
register can be used to point to the beginning of a block of registers that contain the pager message text.
When using a local register, no other text can be included on Line 1 or Line 2. The String Copy block is used
to store text characters in local registers for use by the pager message block.
Prepend Site Address & Name: If ticked, RTU Addr: xxx Site: SITENAME is added to the front of the
message; where xxx is the RTU address and SITENAME is the 8-character Site Name of the SDB file loaded
in the RTU.
Append Date/Time Stamp: If ticked, a time and date stamp is added to the end of the pager message as
follows DD-MM HH.MM.SS - ie. day-month hour.minutes.seconds. The year is not included.
Pager Seq (1-5): Indicates which pager sequence to use for this message (as configured in Configuration,
Pager Configuration). A pager sequence defines which pager receivers to send the pager message to.
Acknowledge Bit: This bit is set when the pager message is first sent. Resetting the bit to zero (eg. using
SCADA software) will acknowledge that the pager message is received and no further messages will be
sent. If this bit is not cleared, a fail will be recorded for RTU250 once the pager message has been sent to all
the configured pager numbers and the last Wait for Ack time has expired (RTU250 is reserved for paging
statistics).
