Characters accepted in aliases are defined in chapter 7

.

Note: If an alias is defined, the default command will be disabled. There can be
only one effective command or alias for each function at a time. An alias must not
be equal to a default command.

Empty aliases cannot be used. If an empty alias is set, the default command will
remain effective.

Note: The alias string must be unique and the maximum length is 24 characters.
Neither commands nor aliases are case sensitive. However, the message identifier
and password are.

5.4 INPUT

SETTINGS

Figure 7 shows a dialog (File -> Module Configuration -> Input Settings) where
you can configure analog input settings with Configurator.

The Nokia 12 GSM Module has separate digital and analog inputs. You can set
high and low limits to the analog input pins. The pin can be in the normal or
alarm mode. If the information is continuous, use inputs 1-3.

The input sampling interval indicates the period for which the Nokia 12 GSM
Module polls the input state. The sampling interval value ranges from 1 to 60
seconds.

For control messages querying input states or values, see Chapter 9.3.2.

You can subscribe to text message alarms as response messages. This is
done using control messages described in Chapter 9.3.3.

As a default, the alarm message is sent once to the number where the alarm
was subscribed. Alternatively, the alarm can be sent continuously. In this case,
alarm messages are sent when alarm conditions are met, until the alarm
subscription is cancelled (see Chapter 9.3.3). To configure the alarm sequence,
select “Continuously” or “Once” in the Input Settings dialog.

In analog input, or if device data is continuous, an alarm can be set to be
triggered when a limit is crossed. Configurator requires the high and low limits
as millivolts (0 … 2800 mV) and the sampling interval as seconds (1-60 s).

Control messages for subscribing an alarm or alarms are described in chapter
9.3.3.

Note: It is mandatory to set input high and low limit values in the analog mode.

Note: The number to which alarm messages are sent can only be defined by
subscribing to an alarm. After the subscription, the alarm will be sent as a response
to the number where the alarm was subscribed. Thus, the number cannot be
defined with Configurator.
