e-mail
The SCADA 3000 can send alarm messages and reports via e-mail. In the “Destination” field,
enter the e-mail address. For this to work you must have an internet e-mail account and regis-
ter the unit with Phonetics. The unit will automatically dial a toll-free number to the e-mail
server at Phonetics and then forward the information to you. A monthly fee is required to
receive e-mail from your SCADA 3000. Simply fill out the e-mail registration card that came
with your unit, or contact Phonetics for more details. Other e-mail delivery options may be
available. Contact factory for details.
Example: [email protected]
Special Dialing Codes
Sometimes, when dialing out on certain phone systems, SCADA 3000 may need special
instructions to access an outside phone line, to contact numeric pagers, or to use alphanumeric
pager services. The following dialing codes give SCADA 3000 instructions on how to send the
phone digits when dialing the phone number. Each code is counted as one digit toward the
total of 64 digits. The dialing codes are:
P = two-second pause. A two-second pause can be placed anywhere within the phone number
by typing the letter P (upper or lower case). The pause takes up one digit and may be used
more than once. This is typically required when a pager service is answered by a voice prompt-
ed message, or when a pager service allows only a few seconds to enter a number before dis-
connecting. You must add enough pauses to get past the voice message. In this case you must
enter the number you wish to be displayed on your pager.
Example: 555-2233 PP 444-8877#
POUND (#) or ASTERISK (*): When dialing to a numeric pager, a pound sign (#) or an aster-
isk (*) may be used within the phone number. An asterisk (*) typically is displayed as a dash (-)
on most pagers.
Example: 16105554591 PP 986*0331#
W = wait for answer. This code instructs SCADA 3000 to wait until the call is answered before
continuing. The “W” code takes up one digit and may be used only once. The “W” code is
typically used in the middle of a dialout number when calling a numeric pager. The SCADA
3000 will wait for the pager company to answer the call before sending the number to be dis-
played on the pager.
Example: 1-610-555-4593 W 6105582000
(pager company phone number) W (number to display on numeric pager)
Note that digits following “W” will always be dialed as touch-tones when calling a numeric
pager.
I= send alarm number. This code instructs SCADA 3000 to send the alarm numbers that have
an alarm to a numeric pager. The “I” code takes up one digit and may be used only once.
Note that this is only required if you must insert additional dialing codes (such as pauses) to
make your pager work; otherwise the alarm number will be sent automatically.
Example: 555-2233 PP 4448877*I#
