Command: Reset INPUT NAME (Example: Reset alarm)
The system responds with:
INPUT NAME is no longer in a latched state and will begin to be monitored again
If the Input is not latched, the system responds with:
INPUT NAME latch is not currently set so does not need clearing
Note: If the input is set as a tick-off input then by resetting the input (as above) it will
also tick-off the input. If the input has been linked to an output then resetting the input
will also reset the output.
Masking Input’s (only available in ver 1.6 or later)
This feature allows for the individual inputs to be masked per programmed user, so only the
set inputs will be sent to the programmed number.
(System default is for all users to received texts from all inputs)
Command: Set +??XXXXXXXX inputs 1,3
This will set the system so that ONLY inputs 1 & 3 will be texted to the number ??XXXXXXX
The system responds with:
The inputs for user number +??XXXXXXXX have been set
To set back to factory default: Set +??XXXXXXXX inputs 1,2,3,4

Step numbers on (only available in ver 3.9 or later)
When the Tick-Off feature has been turned on and an input is triggered the unit will
send a text to all users, a reminder text will be sent every 5 minutes until the text
command “Tick INPUT NAME off is sent. If the Step numbers on has been turned
on then when an input is triggered all users will receive a text and the Tick-Off
reminder text will be sent to the users in the list one at a time every 5 minutes until
the text command “Tick INPUT NAME off is sent.
To turn the feature on:
Command: Step numbers on
The system responds with: The tick-off number step feature has been turned on
Step only numbers on (only available in ver 3.9 or later)
When the Tick-Off feature has been turned on and an input is triggered the unit will
send a text to all users, a reminder text will be sent every 5 minutes until the text
command “Tick INPUT NAME off is sent. If the Step only numbers on has been
turned on then when an input is triggered the first user in the list will receive a text
and the Tick-Off reminder text will be sent to the users in the list one at a time every
5 minutes until the text command “Tick INPUT NAME off is sent.
To turn the feature on:
Command: Step only numbers on
The system responds with: The tick-off number only step feature has been turned on
NOTE: The difference between the above commands is
Step numbers on ( will text all users then one at a time every 5 minutes)
Step only numbers on (will text users one by one every 5 minutes)
(only available in ver 4.2 or later)
If the Step only numbers feature is turned on:
If an input has been triggered (and a text sent) then when the tick-off input text has
been sent (by any user) the tick-off reply text will be sent to all users that received the
original message.
The same logic applies if the input turns off. e.g the “ Input? has turned off” text is
only sent to the user that received the original message.
(only available in ver 4.2 or later)
Changing the time period the tick-off reminder text is sent (default= 5 minutes):
Command: Set step time to XX minutes (where XX can be between 1 and 99)

If the Output was initially On when the Output was set, the system responds with:
OUTPUT NAME is now a pulsing output and has been turned off in preparation for use
If the Output is linked to an Input, when the Input is triggered the system sends:
INPUT NAME linked output OUTPUT NAME has been pulsed on then off
Clear Output pulse (make output non pulsing)
Command: Clear OUTPUT NAME pulse
If you try to clear a pulsed Output when it is not set, the system responds with:
OUTPUT NAME is not currently a pulsed output so does not need changing
If you try and clear a pulse on an Input, the system responds with:
Sorry pulse only apply to outputs, please check the name and try again
Otherwise if its all ok, the system responds with:
OUTPUT NAME is no longer a pulsing output

Make an output public
This command is used to make an output public, which means it can be controlled by anyone
and not just a programmed user. This could be used for a gate for example.
To set the output feature on:
Command: Make OUTPUT NAME public
The system responds with: The output OutputName is now a public output
To set the output feature off:
Command: Make OUTPUT NAME private
The system responds with: The output OutputName is now a private output
Turn Output response On / Off
This command is used to turn the output response text On or Off.
If the output response is turned off then a response text is not sent when outputs are turned
on or off System default is ON (send response).
To turn the feature on:
Command: Turn respond on
The system responds with: This feature has been enabled, response text will be sent
To turn the feature off:
Command: Turn respond off
The system responds with: This feature has been disabled, response text will not be sent
Save Output Status
This command is used to define if the output state is saved to memory and restored to it state
after a power recycle. E.g. if an output was On when the power was turned off then when the
power is restored the output will turn back on. Note this does not apply if an output was turned
on for a specified time. System default is not saved.
Command: Make OUTPUT NAME save
The system responds with:
The output condition will be saved and restored if the power is reset
To turn the feature off:
Command: Make OUTPUT NAME nonsave
The system responds with:
The output condition will not saved
Note: If you want this for both outputs then the command needs to be sent for both outputs
Link Outputs (only available in ver 1.2 or later)
This command is used to link outputs together.
To link outputs:
Command: Link outputs ? ? ? e.g. Link outputs 1 & 4 : Command: Link outputs 1 4
The system responds with: The outputs have been linked
To clear links:
Command: Clear linked outputs
The system responds with: All linked outputs have been cleared

Set Battery Alarm Trigger Voltage
Command: Change battery alarm to XX.X
Where XX.X can be between 8 and 30 volts
The system responds with:
The low voltage alarm has been set to XX.X volts and the alarm has been reset
This system monitors the battery by calculating the average value of the supplied voltage over
the previous 1 minute period. Once this average has been detected to be below the set value
for the programmed time it sends a text message to inform all users. The inclusion of the
running average helps protect the system from detecting inaccurate readings during periods
of increased load.
If no value (XX.X) is set the system responds with:
Because no value was specified the voltage alarm has been set to 11.5 volts and the
alarm has been reset
If the value (XX.X) is outside the settings the system responds with:
Because the value is out of range the voltage alarm has been set to 11.5 volts and
the alarm has been reset
Link the Battery Alarm to an Output
Command: Link battery alarm to OUTPUT NAME
The system responds with:
The battery alarm has successfully been linked to OUTPUT NAME and the alarm has
been reset
To clear or remove the link
Command: Clear battery link
The system responds with:
The battery alarm Output link has been removed
Function: If a link is setup between the Battery Alarm and an Output, then when the Battery
Alarm turns ON, the linked Output will also turn on. Full control of the Output is still available
(see page 17-18).
Check the Battery Supply Voltage
Command: Voltage status
The system responds with: (where battery is the name for the supply voltage)
Battery is currently XX.X volts
Turn the System is active message On or Off
Command: Active ?? (where ?? can be on or off)
The system responds with:
The active feature has been turned ?? (where ? can be on or off)
