SMS Alarm Dialer
The M30 SMS Alarm Dialer is an rugged machine specifically designed for commercial and industrial conditions. It has over 60 years of alarm dialer design experience behind it and was designed with input from our customers to make sure it had all the features and functions they required.
 SMS Alarm Dialer The M30 SMS features include 4,8,16 or 56 individual inputs each with their own SMS or voice message, IP56 enclosure, integrated mains failure and 24+hrs battery backup to name a few (check out a more in-depth list below).
SMS features;
The SMS feature is very easy to setup, when you are setting up the outgoing alarm contact numbers you just select whether you would like the recipient to get an SMS or a voice message, the rest is done automatically for you.
Each individual input on the M30 has its own individual SMS message, plus there is a universal machine identification, so you can easily tell where it has come from.
So for example instead of getting a generic “Channel 32 Alarm Condition” SMS message you get a much more useful “London Desalination Plant – Low Water in tank 22” message.
To make things easier for you we set up all the messages so you do not end up sitting there for hours typing in each message
Speech Messages;
If required you can also send voice messages to your alarm recipients, this can be over a standard PSTN lane line telephone or via the mobile GSM networks.
If you use the PSTN network you can setup the M30 to monitor the line and if it fails, to automatically switch to the GSM network to ensure you always get your alarms out.
As per the SMS messages each input can have its own individual speech message.
Software Features;
The M30 is designed and built by us in the UK and is fully customisable, so if you would like the M30 to work in a certain way or to have a unique function for your application then we will be happy to create it for you.
We also have lots of “off the shelf” upgrades available for example;
- More alarm numbers – As standard the M30 allows you to have up to 5 numbers in each roster (alarm contact list) but this can be extended to 10 or more.
- Auto Isolate – M30 automatically turns itself on and off at predefined times and days.
- Channel to Roster – Each input can dial a totally separate list of alarm contacts.
- Auto Test – The M30 will automatically make a test call on a predefined time and day.
Standard Features;
Below is a small subset of the standard features on the M30, for a more comprehensive list or information please contact us or visit the standard or optional features pages.
- 4,8,16 and 56 individual inputs/ channels.
- Individual user recordable speech and or SMS messages for each input.

CTR Channel to Roster Software Upgrade
On a Standard M30 on when dialing it will select the Duty Roster set by the User (1,2 or 3). The current Duty Roster selected is shown on the top right of the LCD display (e.g. R1, R2, R3).
 CTR Channel to Roster Software Upgrade
The Channel to Roster software works differently. When an alarm becomes active, instead of the M30 dialling out on one of the Duty Rosters, the M30 will automatically select a Roster linked to that alarm channel.
So for Example;
If Channel 1 is activated it will dial Roster 1.
If Channel 5 is activated it will dial Roster 5.
If Channel 10 is activated it will dial Roster 10 etc.
This software upgrade is great for when you need to communicate different alarms to different people for example the fire brigade for the fire alarm and the maintenance department for the Air Conditioning in the server room.
This new feature is available either as an option on a new M30 or as a simple software upgrade on a current machine.

SMS Text Message Feature
As of the winter of 2012/13 we have added another new feature to our M30 Alarm Dialler, the ability to send SMS messages in addition to the standard voice messages.
Each input/channel on the M30 can be configured with a user defined text message of around 25 ASCII characters – so instead of a recipient getting a useless “channel 1” alarm they can receive a useful “Mains Failure Boiler one” message.
This feature is in addition to the standard voice message option so you can still setup and send user recordable voice messages over the PSTN networks or over the GSM networks with the GSM converter.
Setup
Setting up your M30 is very simple; while entering your alarm contacts phone numbers you can select whether the recipient should get a SMS or a voice message.
The station identification is a maximum of 31 ASCII Characters.
All inputs can have an individual identifying text message of up to 25 ASCII characters.
Operation
When the M30 detects an active alarm/s it will send an individual SMS message for each active input to the predefined recipients. E.g. if 4 inputs are active then the on call engineer would get 4 SMS’s.
Message Example
Each SMS message is created from the M30’s Station ID (in <> brackets) and the inputs individual message and then followed by an *End of Message*.
E.g. If channel 1 is in alarm the M30 will send a text message as follows:
<Packs Infotel Office> Channel 1 Alarm Condition *End of Message*
or
<Sunningdale Landfill> Mains Failure Boiler one *End of Message*
