64 T ERMINAL O PERATION
DIAL NMS. Sends reports through a modem to an 8100A Site Controller.
Primary Phone#, Secondary Phone #
ASCII strings for the primary and secondary call on alarm phone numbers used in
the
DIAL and DIAL NMS modes. The strings must not include the ATDT-command
prefix.
The unit makes three attempts to connect using the primary number. If all three
attempts fail, the unit makes three attempts to connect using the secondary number
(if it is not blank). If the secondary number fails, the unit waits five minutes and
then attempts to communicate using the primary number again. When a connection
is detected, the unit outputs the notification message and disconnects.
Element ID
Allows the entry of an ASCII string (29 characters in length) which identifies the
unit to the device receiving the alarm notification messages.
Call on alarm messages are reported in the following format in the DIAL or
DIRECT modes only:
Element ID HH:MM:SS MM/DD/YY CR LF
NET Alarms: alarms CR LF
DTE Alarms: alarms CR LF
where ( alarms ) is a string consisting of some or all of the identifiers LOS , OOF ,
RAS , AIS , UAS , ERRS , or the word NONE . The following is an example:
Joesunit 17:24:55 08/04/93
NET Alarms: LOS AIS ERRS
DTE Alarms: LOS 2A 2B 3A 3B
The user-programmable Element ID string is transmitted first to allow the COA
function to send a message with a specific meaning to some host (such as a log on
message).
The identifier ERRS represents an alarm that is caused by ES, SES, and /or BPV
errors.
