This field provides a default message for use when no other message is supplied (normally
team/engineering/coverage calls).
6.36 Verification
Off-Air verification can be enabled on one or more call types by including the appropriate flag in the
format field. If verification is enabled, something will need to tell the encoder that the call has been
sent correctly. This can be any of the following:
6.36.1 An Internal Receiver Decoder (Decoder Mode must be enabled)
6.36.2 An External Receiver connected via an Alarm Agent with the alarm message directed to
the Alerter.
6.36.3 A Closing Contact Pager connected to a Peripheral Agent
For the Closing Contact Pager, the Agent Manager on the Peripheral Agent must be configured to
send a text message to the encoder with the message "addr" where addr is the pager address (RIC)
of the pager. If the pager is capable of decoding multiple addresses, send a text message for EACH
address. Unlimited Closing Contact Pagers may be use this method.
6.37 Normal Calls
The alerter will accept one or more users, separated by comma. Each user may be numeric or
alphanumeric. However, only numeric calls can use the wildcard facility. If multiple calls are specified
and any one is not matched, NO calls are sent.
