TAP Configuration

In order to use Alpha paging or SMS you must arrange access to a TAP server/host.
The EDAC700 RTU uses standard TAP protocol; it does not use ETAP or Pacnet.
If you are going to use SMS messaging to a cell phone, you may also need to subscribe
to an additional service. In New Zealand for Telecom or 025 cell phones, this is called
"Mobile Note". This service enables the individual cell phone to receive SMS text
messages from the TAP host.
If you are in New Zealand and have a GSM or 021 cell phone you need to talk to the
manufacturer for up to date information on where to go to arrange access to a TAP host.
To configure the dialler for Paging or SMS, you must configure the TAP access numbers
and the Pager number or cell phone number.
The Tap service is configured via the "Configure TAP" menu. The table below gives
the information required for use in New Zealand.
Service Type
Alpha Paging
Mobile Note (025)
Vodaphone (021)
If using a pager you will need its RIC code. It is the number you dial via a normal phone
to activate the pager. This is normally located on the back of the pager, however your
service provider should have provided this number when you signed up.
The next step after configuring the TAP access is to configure your phone numbers for
notification on the Alpha/ numeric pager or cell phone.
In the "Configure phone num" menu, you should enter a suitable name, and the
access number. If using a pager, enter the RIC code. In New Zealand this will start 026.
If you are using SMS, you will enter your cell phone number here. The following table
provides the information required for use in New Zealand with Telecom 025 cell phones.
Cell phones starting with
027....
025...Plus 7 digit number
025...Plus 6 digit number
After entering the phone number work your way down the menu and select the
"SMS/alpha-numeric pager" option. If you have not previously set up your TAP host you
will be given an opportunity to do so here. If you have, you can select the TAP service
you have previously set up.
The pager message comes from the Input configuration. See "I/O Menu" and select the
Input sensor that you want to generate paging messages.
If the input selected is configured for analogue, the analogue reading will be added to
the end of the text message entered above.
When configuring a pager notification or SMS text message a delay must be set
between each call. This is to allow the user to call into the EDAC700 RTU to
cancel/Acknowledge the alarm. It also allows the EDAC700 RTU to check if the input
