Description of Operation

The Remote Notification option performs three basic functions: Call Answer into

Terminal mode, Call Out to a remote terminal, and Housekeeping. Remote

Notification also allows access to any functions available in the Terminal mode

from a remote computer or terminal.

13.3.1 Call Answer

When the modem receives a call, the UPS is alerted to wait for a connect signal

from the modem. When the modem answers and finishes handshaking, the UPS

acknowledges the modem connect signal and allows the caller to use the Terminal

mode (refer to Chapter 12, “Serial Communications”). In this mode, the user can

request the following:

NOTE: The brackets ([ ]) in the following steps indicate standard keyboard

characters.

·

Display UPS Control Panel. Press and hold [ESC], then press [V].

·

Display event History by pressing and holding [ESC], then pressing [H].

·

Display Node Bits Setup by pressing and holding [ESC], then pressing [N].

·

Display any new event by pressing and holding [ESC], then pressing [L].

13.3.2 Call Out

The Call Out function contains programmable alarms (setup by service personnel)

and status events (refer to Chapter 11, “Responding to System Events”). The

notification groups tell the UPS to notify a remote computer or pager for each

selected event. Refer to the “Configuring the Modem” section of this chapter for

information on the modem configuration. The Call Out function activates as

follows:

·

A UPS alarm or notice occurs that is programmed to cause a Call Out.

·

The UPS takes the modem off the hook and sends a command to the modem

to call the notification groups (phone numbers) required. The phone are stored

in the modem only. The command sent to the modem for group one is

“ATDS=0”, “ATDS=1” for group two, “ATDS=2” for group three, and “ATDS=3”

for group four,. This allows the user to program the desired phone numbers

into the modem.
