Chapter 21: PC Alarm Dialout

Figure 7: Custom Voice screen

This screen shows the custom voice message descriptions, which alarm they are associated with,

and when they were recorded.

Note: Voice message association is programmed on the Alarms programming

screen (Notification Tab).

The first step is to enter a voice message description for each message you will be recording.

Next, use the buttons to the far right of the screen to record each voice message.

Programming Destinations

Step Four is to program destinations. Destination programming is identical to the method

used for normal operation for destination types except Numeric Pagers. The following differ-

ences apply:
Since the PC Alarm Dialout program can process alarms from multiple SCADA 3000 units

at once, a unique Alarm ID number is added to every PC-generated alarm message. The

Alarm ID number is automatically added to all Voice, Fax, E-mail, and Alphanumeric Pager

calls. The only exception is Numeric Pager calls. Typically, you can program a numeric pager

destination with only the pager number. In this case no additional codes need to be added.

However, in instances where the pager service disconnects quickly, or if you must navigate

through a voice menu with touch-tones, you will need to add additional codes. To have the

Alarm ID number appear on a numeric pager insert the letter “D” into the telephone number.

An example is shown below:

Example: 7772233PP6105551234D#
Description of each segment of the beeper number above:
7772233 = pager telephone number
P = 2 second pause
6105551234 = computer telephone number to appear on pager
D = Alarm ID number (4 digits)
# = # (touch-tone)

On the Numeric pager this would appear as “6105551234-0001” which translates to a call from

telephone number 610-555-1234 with Alarm ID 0001. To find out exactly what the alarm is,

the person would have to call 610-555-1234 and enter the Alarm ID number. The computer

would then recite the complete Alarm information and allow the person to enter an acknowl-

edgement code to cancel the dialout process.
