MTXTunnel can send SMSs when the level of any digital input changes. This can be performed with the GPRS tunnel activated at same time.

ALARM_gpioEnabled

Description: This parameter will activate this SMS alarm feature when the digital input level changes.

Possible values:

  • on, off
  • Default value: off

Additional notes:

  • Each platform type has its own specific input for alarms which are assigned based on the device .

ALARM_gpioValue

Description: Alarm GPIO input level value definition: “0” o “1”

Possible values:

  • 0, 1, 2
  • Default value: 0

Additional notes:

  • The alarm is defined by the change in level value
  • “1” means a transition from “0” to “1”
  • “0” means a transition from “1” to “0”
  • “2” means a transition from “1” to “0” or “0” to “1”

ALARM_gpioMessage, ALARM_gpioMessage1

Description: SMS sent when alarm occurs. ALARM_gpioMessage is the message sent when the digital input changes from “1” to “0”. ALARM_gpioMessage1 is the message sent when the associated digital input changes from “0” to “1”.

Possible values:

  • Up to 160 characters text string length
  • Default value: “Alarm”

Additional notes:

  • Text string must be less than 160 characters because that is the limit of the length of the SMS text

ALARM_gpioPause

Description: This important parameter avoids sending SMSs continuously when the input alarm pin changes. MTX-Tunnel will just send one SMS in the specified time value parameter.

Possible values:

  • 0… 86400 in seconds (1 day)
  • Default value: 60 (1 hour)

ALARM_smsNumber1, ALARM_smsNumber2, … , ALARM_smsNumber10

ALARM_ulpEnabled

Description: it allows to enable the SMS alarm for the equipment that has ULP. If this option is enabled, if an MTX is on ULP (asleep) and is awaken by a tamper input (digital input), when the MTX wakes up, it will send an alarm SMS.

Possible values:

  • on, off
  • Default value: off

Additional notes:

  • The text of the SMS message is established in the parameter ALARM_ulpMessage
  • The telephone numbers you send the SMS to must be configured in the parameters ALARM_smsNumber1 … ALARM_smsNumber10
  • Find the example on this guide where the parameter ALARM_ulpEnabled is for mor information

ALARM_ulpMessage

Description: text of the SMS message that will be sent when an MTX with ULP awakes with a tamper input (digital input).

Possible values:
