Initialisation and Test
Procedure
Before SMS messages can be
sent to a mobile ‘phone, it is
necessary to gain authorisation
for connection to the network,
and set up the call routing
through the appropriate
bureau.
This is done, after
programming the calls (as
described above), but before
programming 'content types'
by scrolling to ‘ENGINEER TESTS’
and following these steps:
ENGINEER TESTS
Press YES and then scroll
(with NO) to:
Test CHC
Communications?
Press YES
Testing to CHC
Please Wait
The panel communicates with the
Castle Host Computer (CHC),
which will initialise the system as
required.
When this is complete the display
will show EITHER
Test sent to CHC
Test Complete
The panel is now able to send SMS
Text messages.
OR
Failed to dial
CHC
The test call has failed.
Check:
Telecom Line is OK
Downloading is correctly set up
for
‘
MODEM
’
Digi/SMS Programmed correctly
Call = Active
Mobile number is programmed
correctly.
Press YES or NO to escape from
menu.
When testing, bear in mind
that a delay in receiving the
message is likely to be due to
the messaging service, rather
than the Control.
Communication Failure:
In the event of failure to
communicate with the CHC on
a routine test call, the panel
will display ‘CHC Test Fail’ until
the test is next conducted
successfully. This acts as a
reminder that SMS signalling
may not be operational, but
will NOT interfere with normal
system operation or SMS
signalling (if operative).
To permit sites with CHC
communication problems to be
traced, a record should be
maintained of the software serial
number of each site (see 13-4).
