Number:
If the number is a local call, a 9-digit format can be entered. If the call is
long distance, a 10-digit format will be accepted as well. If you are unsure if long
distance status for a number, use the test call feature in the advanced setup page.
Email:
It is possible to send SMS messages through email with some carriers. The
address format is different carrier to carrier but is often the phone number
number@carrier.com. (ex. 4035551234@msg.telus.com).
Contact Methods:
Contact methods should be ordered according to the desired
monitoring and record keeping outcome. If an email record of alarms is required,
method 1 should be email. When alarms occur, contact method 1 will be the first to
get sent out and in the order of SMS, email, and then voice. For example: An alarm
st
occurs and all members of the 1
call group are contacted via their first contact
method. The SCADADroid will send all SMS and email notifications first and then
begin voice calls. Once everyone's first contact method has been completed, the
SCADADroid will then use contact method 2.
ACK Code:
Every contact needs an ACK code in order to acknowledge alarms. Every
contact's ack code should be unique for detailed record keeping.
Voice:
Every contact can select the gender and the voice's tone of the voice call.
Active:
Contacts can be active or inactive. This allows temporary disabling of contacts
for vacations etc. without deleting the contact.
