For detailed information about building a framework for alerting via an alphanumeric pager, refer to the
Alert module description in the online

Once the modem at the paging service is contacted, the ION meter transmits the
following information:
following information:
Pager identification number
Local time (year, month, date, hours, minutes, seconds)
Remote site identification
Priority of the alarm
Alert message, with text strings and realtime measured values
To include a module’s Source input in the message, reference the message string by
using the form %Vn, where n is the Source input number. In the following Message
register setting, the kWtot value is %V1. The string includes Source input 1 which
would be the kWtot register from the Power Meter module.

The destination register contains your modem access number for the paging
service provider and is what is dialed out first. The Pager Num register is the pager
access number that is provided by your paging company.

Alerting via a Numeric Pager

For detailed information about building a framework for alerting via a numeric pager, refer to the Alert
module description in the online
module description in the online
ION Programmer’s Reference.
If a numeric pager is specified as the destination address in the Alert module, then
a numeric paging service receives a message from the ION meter. Due to the
inherent limitations in numeric paging, the ION meter can only send a string of
digits to the paging service. The Alert module then waits a specified time,
determined by the number of commas inserted after the phone number in the Pager
Num setup register. Finally, the Alert module dials the message digital string.

determined by the number of commas inserted after the phone number in the Pager
Num setup register. Finally, the Alert module dials the message digital string.
There are two important factors to consider when setting up the Alert module for
numeric paging. First, be sure to specify a string of digits that is meaningful to you,
such as a coded message. Second, be aware that there is no way to assure that a
message has been successfully transmitted. Instead, there may be a busy signal or
an answering machine may take the call. The number of commas you add to your
dial string is an estimate of how long the modem at the remote site waits before it
transmits numbers.
