Alarm and Scheduled Call-In

The ERX Recorder, if configured, can initialize a call-in due to an alarm and a scheduled-call-in.
In this method, item 338 (Scheduled Call-In Occurred) may be used by the host system to
determine whether the call-in was triggered by an alarm or due to a scheduled call-in. A
scheduled call-in will have changed item 338 from '0' to '1' indicating that a scheduled call-in
occurred and not an alarm. Item 338 must have its value reset to a value of '0' and item 334 must
be reset for the next scheduled call-in date after a Scheduled Call-In; otherwise, the recorder will
not call again.
To use this method, set the following items:
Item
333 Call-In Trigger
334 Scheduled Call-In Date
335 Scheduled Call-In Time
339 Scheduled Call-In Phone #
789 Modem AT Enable
780 Modem Init String
781 Modem Dial String
784 Alarm Call-In Phone#
782 Modem Hang-up String

Modem Power Control--Call-out Window

Modem power control is used to conserve battery power by only applying power to a
communication device within an operating window when communication is desired. Modem
power control utilizes the alarm output channel of TB1; A- and A+ to control the power applied
to a communication device, such as, a modem, CDPD, or radio, etc.
Item 484, Alarm-Channel-Control must be configured to Modem Power control instead of the
default Alarm Pulse output. This action defeats Alarm Pulse output.
The period that the communications device is powered is controled by item 791 Call-out Start
Time and item 783 Call-out Stop Time and further defined by item 792 Call-out Repeat
Interval and item 793 Call-out Keep Alive Time.
