Commissioning Checklist
The commissioning process tailors the Messenger 570 system to your unique
remote monitoring application. This section outlines the minimal commissioning
tasks required for many applications. Complete details relating to the commands
mentioned in this section are discussed in further detail in the COMMAND
REFERENCE section later in this manual.
IMPORTANT: The Messenger 570 remote monitoring system has many time and
money-saving capabilities that can only be realized after having a thorough
working knowledge of all of the commands described in the COMMAND
REFERENCE section in this manual.
Identify the System
The Messenger 570 has several programmable fields to help identify it in both voice and data modes. These
fields include “site name” and “code number” (for data mode identification) and “unit phone number” (for
voice mode identification).
The information that you enter in these fields will not affect the operation of the unit but will help you manage
information from your remote sites.
Use the SEC S command to enter system identification information.
Configure the Inputs
The Messenger 570 accepts a variety of different input types.
Use the INP S command to instruct the Messenger 570 as to how to interpret and report this input data.
Configure the Data Logger
The Messenger 570’s data logger can be configured to take periodic “snapshots” of designated inputs and/or
record system events and alarm conditions.
Use the INP S command to designate the inputs to be recorded and the LOG S command to set logging
parameters.
