Chapter 11: Programming for Phone Line Applications
A = alphanumeric pager ID: The “A” dialing code is used ONLY for alphanumeric pager des-
tinations. It is placed between the pager company’s telephone number and a particular pager’s
ID number by typing the letter A (upper or lower case). It instructs SCADA 3000 to wait
until a connection is made to the alphanumeric pager service’s computer system before trans-
mitting the ID number for a particular pager.
Example: 1-610-555-4593 A 0504099
C = alphanumeric character password: The “C” dialing code is used ONLY for alphanumeric
pager destinations and only if your particular pager system requires a character password. This
password may be required for SCADA 3000 to access the pager service’s computer system. If
required, it is placed between the pager company’s telephone number and the required charac-
ter password in the dialout sequence by typing the letter C (upper or lower case). The charac-
ter password must precede the pager ID number.
Example if character password required: 1-610-555-4593 C 000000 A 0504099
(pager company phone number) C (character password) A (pager ID number)
The alphanumeric character password is optional and is, in general, reserved for future services.
Length of the password, when used, may be different in some systems. Consult your pager ser-
vice for more information.
