Bruce pearce Posted August 21, 2015 Author Posted August 21, 2015 I have seen those units but wasn't to sure on the services required .Is it relatively simple to setup ?Is their any charges/ subscription needed ? Thanks Bruce Quote
BLWTechServices Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 (edited) Yes, the setup is straight forward enough, probably easier than the com2400 actually. The only cost is the purchase of the Com-IP or WiFi module. Then it's simply a matter of creating an account on the Texecom server using the app on the smart phone and you should be good to go, no on-going charges or subs.

GalaxyGuy Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 I wonder how many people are blindly opening up ports to their panels without any thought of the security of the devices behind (4 digit codes being pretty weak) ??? I cannot find any information about how secure the protocol for the WiFi module is. COM-IP didn't have anything, so I'm assuming that the WiFi is the same. Has anyone here seen anything to the contrary ? There doesn't seem to be any acknowledgement to OpenSSL or other standard cipher in the docs. There's no mention in any of the documentation advising the use of VPN in the first instance. Surely this should be the first choice for any device and port mapping being a last resort. Quote
NotHeardofThat1 Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 Bruce did you get 2400 to text out? If not On keypad, All in UDL/digi options: Comport setup- com2400 should be selected on the port or onboard. Setup modules- set pri sms centre to 07785499993. Make sure if you need a 9 prefix to dial out on your landline phone, it goes in front of SMS centre number. Digi options- ensure You have E and A on. Program digi- arc1- sms messaging- primary is your first mobile number- reporting options make sure at least Test calls is on( C ) Now go to make test call- press zero- display should eventually show SMS sent. If that doesn't work Make sure you have 50v on com2400 and you can dial out. You might want to use different SMS centre but that's what I use. I think it's Vodafone.m Hope this helps. Like the others said, comip/wifi is much better, or even gsm com Quote
