Log File Gprs (2G) Send Times; Sms Send Error Management; Ftp And Smtp Server Data Connection And Send Error Management; Sms, Ftp And Email Configuration Test - Seneca MyALARM2 Series User Manual

ATTENTION!
MYALARM2 batteries are not delivered charged. MYALARM2 must be charged for at least 48
hours for backup batteries to be fully charged.
Counter/totalizer values are lost when MYALARM2 is turned off with the batteries dead (the
next time it is turned on, the value saved at 4:00 will be used or, if MYALARM2 was not on at
that date, 0).

10.10. Log file GPRS (2G) send times

The data communication speed depends on a number of factors such as network load, signal level,
etc.
The lowest performance is obtained with MyAlarm models with 2G modem.
Send time can be estimated based on the various tests conducted in Seneca laboratories. A 1440-
row log file (about 200Kbytes) takes an average of about 14 minutes to send in 2G.
Although these times typically do not influence GPRS communication costs (almost always tied to
bytes transferred and not connection time) it is helpful to keep in mind when sending a large
number of logs per day.
Although MYALARM2 was developed to send log files of any dimension, Seneca does not
recommend you send files dimensioned > 250 Kbytes to limit FTP connection duration and errors
(server interruption, timeout, etc.).

10.11. SMS send error management

From the SW2660_201 firmware version, MYALARM2 includes advanced SMS send error
management. Some attempts are made before declaring a fail. If these attempts always fail,
MYALARM2 stops and re-attempts send every 2 hours.
10.12. FTP and SMTP server data connection and send error
management
From the SW2660_201 firmware version, MYALARM2 includes advanced server connection error
management. Some attempts are made before declaring a fail. If these attempts always fail,
MYALARM2 stops and re-attempts send every 2 hours. The device can be set to send FTP and
SMTP server connection errors via SMS to administrators.
