E-mailing the pager is not my problem. Dialing the pager and having data
sent to it (like x server is down at x time) is the problem. Well, I'm
getting a bit closer. Arch Wireless did give me a modem number that gets
dialed into, then my 7-digit pager number gets inserted in the WUG password
(or PIN) field. I also should make sure 8N1 is unchecked, as I'm supposed
to use 7E1. During the pager test in WUG6.0, it dials up the modem number
877.............., then you get the transmission static for several
seconds, then it stops and all my modem lights go out. I've been
playingaround with every possible configuration with the WUG pager entry,
modem and COM1 settings for speed, data/parity/stop and keep getting mixed
results. After every config change I test the modem with phone dialer and
a hyperterminal entry to the MultiTech Systems (my modem) BBS. If I
successfully dial out to them, then I proceed to test the WUG pager entry.
Currently, I get light activity when the modem dials out, but no sound at
all. It's not the phone cord or the wall jack, and I don't think it's the
modem. I've tried going back to all the settings I had when it last dialed
to the Arch Wireless modem #, but with no success. I'm going to try
another modem. After a failed dial attempt, sometimes the modem lights
stay on and sometimes they don't???????????? Should have been a plumber!!
Anybody else have any brainy tidbits to offer me??? Thanks.....

The email address you send to for Pagenet is it something like this.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] or...one of the Archwireless addresses. We
have Pagenet pagers and I have it working fine right now.

Subject: [WhatsUp Forum] having WUG6.0 dial a pager for notification
Hi, People.
All of my devices send notifications to a PageNet pager via an SMTP e-mail
to the pager. E-mails that go outside the company must go out via our
SMTP3 server. And I receive the notifications on the pager just fine.
Here's my problem:
We also want to monitor the SMTP3 server. But since all WUG notification
e-mails to the pager must go out via SMTP3, then we can't send an e-mail to
the pager if SMTP3 goes down. So, I simply want to set notification on the
SMTP3 server as an actual page to the pager (not an e-mail to the pager). I
connected a modem to the WUG machine and configured the pager entry in the
notifications library for our pager. And I've got the modem dialing out on
a test okay. But the PageNet answering system picks up on the other end
and
asks you to enter your numeric page after the beep. Does anybody know of
any special codes or characters that must be inserted into a certain field
that will allow the notification data to be passed along to the pager??
I'm
waiting to speak with a techy from Arch Wireless tomorrow. Thanks, folks.
