3.1.1 Sending e-mails
The signaling systems can send alarms and cyclical messages by e-mail. For this purpose,
GPRS communication is established with an e-mail server. The signaling systems can also
send the entire log book as an e-mail.
In the event of a power failure, e-mails can no longer be sent because it requires more power
to establish the connection to an e-mail server than the internal capacitor can store. How-
ever, it is still possible to send an SMS.
E-mail communication can take place without encryption or with SSL encryption.
STARTTLS is not supported. Please consult your e-mail service provider beforehand. Most
e-mail service providers support SSL encryption.

3.1.2 Sending SMS
Sending an SMS has the advantage of enabling communication even if mobile communica-
tion reception is very poor. The device can send an SMS even without an Internet connec-
tion. The signaling systems can send an SMS to individual devices or to a device group. You
can also configure the device group as a signal chain.
In the event of a power failure, an SMS can still be sent to a selected device.
