Configuring the eG Manager to Send SMS Alerts
For instance, say, the details of your Air2Web subscription are as follows:
IP Address of Air2web service: 192.168.10.112
Pass code provided by Air2web: egaweb112
Application code provided by Air2web: egapp112
Identification code provided by Air2web: eginv112
In this case, your Air2WebURLspecification would be:
http://192.168.10.112/failsafe/HttpPublishLink?pcode=egaweb112?acode=egapp112&mnum
ber=&message=&pin=eginv112
3. Then, save the eg_services.ini file.
4. Once this is done, then every time an SMS alert is to be sent to a user, the following occur
automatically:
5. The eG manager reads the mobile number configured for that user from the user profile
6. This mobile number is then automatically inserted against the mnumber parameter in the
Air2WebUrl specification.
7. Likewise, the eG manager also inserts the contents of the SMS alert against the message
parameter in the Air2WebUrl specification.
8. Once the entire URL is complete, the eG manager connects to the URL and sends the SMS alert.
7.4 Integrating the eG Manager with PageGate
PageGate software allows for network paging or network wide alphanumeric paging and text
messaging from any combination of the following modules: web, email, commandline/ascii, serial,
TAP-in and (GUI) windows workstations. Alphanumeric or text messages can be sent to alphanumeric
pagers, numeric pagers, cell phones, PIMs, billboards or pcmcia pager cards. PageGate is a flexible
powerful way to take control of corporate communications.
The eG manager can be integrated with PageGate, so that the alarms generated by the eG manager
are sent as SMS’ to pagers via PageGate. To submit messages to PageGate, the eG manager uses a
Commandline/ASCII interface.
Given below are the pre-requisites for this integration:
PageGate with the required number of pagers licenses.
Commandline /ASCII Interface
The eG Manager with a valid license for SMS Alerting capability
A Dial-up modem
