...WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS

Status
GSM Module Status
GSM Module Status [>368] shows the current
GSM radio module status as one of:
0 = Not Configured
1 = Off
2 = Off (SIM not fitted)
3 = Ready
4 = Waiting PIN
5 = Waiting PUK
6 = Waiting Antitheft PIN
7 = Waiting Antitheft PUK
8 = Waiting PIN2
9 = Waiting PUK2
10 = SMS Mode
11 = Command Handling
12 = Connecting
13 = Connected
Signal Strength (current value)
The Signal Strength parameter [>348] may be
used to obtain the radio signal strength on
demand.
e.g. >348<0>=16
Signal Log (Signal Strength History)
A signal strength reading is taken each time the
module is powered up (or daily for a mains
powered unit). The last 7 signal strength readings
can be examined using Signal Log in Menu 12
[>365]. The most recent reading is to the left.
i.e. 16 is the most recent reading in this example:
<0>365=16 14 14 13 12 14 14
Total Connect Time
Accumulated connection (call) time can be
obtained using the Total Connect Time parameter
in Menu 12 [>349]. It is given in hh:mm:ss and
excludes SMS text activity.
Access via SMS Text Message
A transmitter with the GSM option also provides a
means of accessing AquaMaster data via SMS
text messaging. An SMS Request Text can be sent
from a mobile phone to AquaMaster and an SMS
Reply Text with the requested information will be
sent to the originating phone or SMS gateway. If
12
the AquaMaster is battery powered, the SMS
Request will not be serviced until the next
programmed WakeUp time as defined in Menu 13.
SMS Request Message
SMS Request messages must have the following
format:
+password;command;command;...;command;
Where:
+password is the character + followed by the
AquaMaster login password [>248] and the
command may be:
Either:
Any of the AquaMaster Parameter Access
Commands:
FLW Rate Of Flow
VEL Rate Of Velocity
PRS Pressure
ALM Alarm
TOF Total Volume Forward
TOR Total Volume Reverse
TON Total Volume Net
TFA Tariff A
TFB Tariff B
TIM Time and Date
or
any regular Command Line Interface requests
e.g.: >365
to show the last 7 Signal Strength readings.
Example
