The SMS alarm messages are composed, as we will see below, by linking two or three text messages
together depending on the type of alarm message, that is to say:
- the first message is predefined;
- the other messages are optional and can be changed by the user�
The following table shows the parts forming an SMS alarm message�

13.6.1 Input activation alarm
The GSM chronothermostat can send an SMS alarm message, to at most 8 telephone numbers, if an
alarm condition generated by the input is detected; in particular, the latter can detect whether there
is voltage applied at its terminals�
It is possible to configure the input so that it detects an alarm event passing from a condition of no
voltage at its ends to a condition of voltage at its ends�
This behaviour is obtained by setting the input mode as an “alarm on closing” (that is considering the
input as “normally open”)�
In addition, it is possible to configure the input so that the alarm condition is generated on passing from
a condition of voltage at its ends to a condition of no voltage at its ends� This behaviour is obtained by
setting the input mode as an “alarm on opening” (that is considering the input as “normally closed”)�
The configuration of the input will be described in detail in the following paragraphs�
The SMS alarm message for activation of the input contacts is formed as follows:
“ALARM”
+
alarm type description
(optional)
+
Address Msg.
(optional)
The
alarm type description
is optional and is composed of the SMS label of the input; with this label,
that can be customized by the user, it is possible to describe the type of input so as to customize the
SMS alarm message (for setting the SMS label please see paragraph 13�6�1�7 on page 39)�
