Chapter 11: Programming for Phone Line Applications
A = alphanumeric pager ID: The “A” dialing code is used ONLY for alphanumeric pager des-
tinations. It is placed between the pager company’s telephone number and a particular pager’s
ID number by typing the letter A (upper or lower case). It instructs SCADA 3000 to wait
until a connection is made to the alphanumeric pager service’s computer system before trans-
mitting the ID number for a particular pager.
Example: 1-610-555-4593 A 0504099
C = alphanumeric character password: The “C” dialing code is used ONLY for alphanumeric
pager destinations and only if your particular pager system requires a character password. This
password may be required for SCADA 3000 to access the pager service’s computer system. If
required, it is placed between the pager company’s telephone number and the required charac-
ter password in the dialout sequence by typing the letter C (upper or lower case). The charac-
ter password must precede the pager ID number.
Example if character password required: 1-610-555-4593 C 000000 A 0504099
(pager company phone number) C (character password) A (pager ID number)
The alphanumeric character password is optional and is, in general, reserved for future services.
Length of the password, when used, may be different in some systems. Consult your pager ser-
vice for more information.
Call Zones
SCADA 3000 is capable of assigning different destinations to specific calling groups (zones)
to accommodate work shift schedules. There are 4 Call Zones to choose from. To include a
destination in a Call Zone, check the appropriate box. To set up Call Zones, click on the “Edit
Zones” button and the following form will appear:
Figure 2: Edit Zones form
The Edit Calling Zones form divides up the 7 day week into 21 blocks of time. To change
the start and end time for each block, drag the horizontal divider bars up or down as needed.
To reassign a block of time to a different Call Zone, click inside the block until it matches
the color of the desired zone. To change the color of a zone, double click on the zone’s color
square at the bottom of the form. Select a new color from the palette, then click the OK but-
ton.
The Zone configuration in figure 16, creates the following time slots:
Zone 1: Monday-Friday 7:00am through 6:00pm
Zone 2: Saturday-Sunday 12:00am through 11:59pm
Zone 3: Monday-Friday 12:00am through 7:00am and 6:00pm through 11:59pm
Zone 4: Undefined
In this example you could assign daytime emergency personnel to Zone 1, personnel on call
during night time hours (Mon-Fri) to Zone 2, and personnel on call on the weekend to Zone 3.
