The elements of the dial string and alert string are shown in Table 7–2. Paging
services vary, so you need to become familiar with the options provided by the
paging service you will be using. The RMC supports only numeric messages.
Sets the string to be used by the RMC to dial out when an alert condition
occurs. The dial string must include the appropriate modem commands to
dial the number.
Sets the alert string, typically the phone number of the modem connected
to the remote system. The alert string is appended after the dial string,
and the combined string is sent to the modem when an alert condition is
detected.
Enables the RMC to page a remote system operator.
Clears any alert that may be pending. This ensures that the send alert
command will generate an alert condition.
Forces an alert condition. This command is used to test the setup of the
dial-out alert function. It should be issued from the local serial terminal or
local VGA monitor. As long as no one connects to the modem and there is
no alert pending, the alert will be sent to the pager immediately. If the
pager does not receive the alert, re-check your setup.
Clears the current alert so that the RMC can capture a new alert. The last
alert is stored until a new event overwrites it. The Alert Pending field of
the status command becomes NO after the alert is cleared.
Verifies the settings. Check that the Alert Enable field is set to Enabled.
NOTE: If you do not want dial-out paging enabled at this time, enter the
disable alert command after you have tested the dial-out alert
function. Alerts continue to be logged, but no paging occurs.
