Alerting via an Alphanumeric Pager

For detailed information about building a framework for alerting via an alphanumeric pager, refer to the
Alert module description in the online 
ION Programmer’s Reference. 
If an alphanumeric pager is specified as the destination address in the Alert 
module, then an alphanumeric paging service receives a message from the ION 
meter.
Once the modem at the paging service is contacted, the ION meter transmits the 
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.
