6.4 Dial-Out Alerts

When you are not monitoring the system remotely, you can use the RCM dial-

out feature to notify you of a power failure within the system.

When a dial-out alert is triggered, the RCM initializes the modem for dial-out, sends

the dial-out string, hangs up the modem, and reconfigures the modem for dial-in.

The modem must continue to be powered, and the phone line must remain active, for

the dial-out alert feature to work. Also, if you are connected to the system remotely,

the dial-out feature does not work.

Enabling Dial-Out Alerts

1. Enter the

set rcm_dialout command, followed by a dial-out alert string, from

the SRM console (see

in Example 6–3). See the next topic for details on

composing the modem dial-out string.

Invoke the RCM and enter the enable command to enable remote access dial-in.

The RCM status command should display “Remote Access: Enable.” See

Enter the alert_ena command to enable outgoing alerts. See

Example 6–3 Configuring the Modem for Dial-Out Alerts

P00>>> set rcm_dialout “ATDT

string#;

”

RCM>status
