16. SYSTEM NOTIFICATIONS
In case of a certain event, the system attempts to send an SMS text message to the first preset administrator phone number only. If the
administrator phone number is unavailable and the system fails to receive the SMS delivery report within 20 seconds, it will attempt to
send the SMS text message to the next preset administrator phone number. The administrator phone number may be unavailable due to
the following reasons:
•
mobile phone was switched off.
•
mobile phone was out of GSM signal coverage.
The system will continue sending the SMS text message to the next preset administrator phone numbers in the priority order until one
is available. The system sends the SMS text message only once and will not return to the first administrator phone number if the last one
was unavailable.
16.1. SMSC (Short Message Service Center) Phone Number
An SMS center (SMSC) is a GSM network element, which routes SMS text messages to the destination recipient and stores the SMS text
message if the recipient is unavailable. Typically, the phone number of the SMS center is already stored in the SIM card provided by the GSM
operator. If the administrator fails to receive replies from the system, the SMS center phone number, provided by the GSM operator, must
be set manually.
