Paging Example:
XYZ company has 20 systems running CheckUPS II® Advanced in one
building. You are configuring CheckUPS II® Advanced for the third of five
systems located in room 122 of the building. To acquire an outside telephone
line from your phone system, you must dial
9
and wait for the dial tone. For
example, the telephone number for the paging service is
1 800 555 1212
.
The Dial Prefix would be:
ATDT 9 W
If it took the paging service approximately ten seconds to answer and get
ready to accept the paging information, then the paging number would be:
18005551212,,,,,122 3
When you put the
Dial Prefix
and the
Paging Numbers
together, you create
a complete dial string:
ATDT 9 W 18005551212,,,,,122 3
ATDT 9 W
causes the modem to dial 9 and wait for the dial tone of an
outside line.
18005551212
is the phone number of the pager. “ ,,,,,” causes
the modem to wait for approx. 10 seconds.
1223
(122-room, 3-computer) is
dialled next, and will be displayed on the pager to identify the computer
system that is currently reporting the event.
Dial your pager service to determine what you need to do to configure
paging. Your paging service may vary from the example.
When you are finished configuring
Paging
