Commands
3.40 set alert
Sets the modem alert string. This string should be set to a meaningful value, such as the system
serial number or remote access phone number. The maximum string length is 63 characters. The
alert string is sent to the modem after the dial string.
Syntax
set alert
[<alert_string>]
Argument
alert_string The ASCII string that is sent to the modem when an alert condition is
triggered. It is sent after the dial string is sent. Issuing the set alert
command without an alert string causes the current alert string to be
erased.
Options
None
Example
Set up the alert string.
MBM> set alert 15085551212#;
MBM00
Note: The # and ; characters are required to terminate the alert string. Without them the alert
may not be sent to a numeric paging system and dial-in may be disabled.
