Informational messages generated by ELDES EPIR security system can also be transmitted to monitoring stations via CONTACT ID protocol using GSM audio channel.
In EPIR ConfigTool V1.5 program environment this operation mode can be activated by checking CID Enable in SC Settings section. Having done this in the predetermined cases the system sends messages to the pre-set telephone number of the monitoring station and, if required, to the registered users via SMS messages.

5.1. Security Center activation


CID Enable – Security Center activation: check mark is selected – the system generates CONTACT ID messages and delivers them to monitoring stations; check mark not selected – the system operates in normal mode, i. e., delivers messages only to registered users (other configurations in SC Settings section are inactive). It is necessary to mark the cases in which the user wants to inform monitoring stations, provided below:

PIR Alarm/Restore Event – the message will be delivered at the time when the alarm of the system EPIR is triggered or the security system returns to the previous status after alarm signal. By default, the sending of these messages is activated.

External Power Loss/Restore Event – the messages are delivered when the external power supply is disconnected or reset. By default, the sending of these messages is activated.

Akum Status Event – messages are delivered in the case the backup battery gets flat. By default, the sending of these messages is activated.

Armed Event - the messages are delivered when EPIR security system is activated. By default, the sending of these messages is activated.

Disarmed Event - the messages are delivered when EPIR security system is deactivated. By default, the sending of these messages is activated.

Test Event - periodical messages with test information about the status of the device are delivered. By default, the sending of these messages is activated.



5.2. Security Center contact details


Account – device access number which is used by the Security Center for determining the object informational package is incoming from.

Attemts – this field is used for providing the number which refers to the number of times the system tries to call the preset numbers until successfully answered call if the previous calls were unsuccessful. For instance, if the calls to all the three preset are in turn unsuccessful the system starts calling again from the first number. This action will be performed for as many times as determined in this field or until the first successfully answered call.

5.3. User Informing Settings


When the function of message sending to the central monitoring station is activated, the system does not inform the registered users about events.

PIR Alarm Event – message about the triggered alarm of EPIR security system.

Disarmed Event – message about EPIR system deactivation.

Armed Event – message about EPIR system activation.

External Power Loss Event – message about disconnected external power supply.
