Alston Tascom Integration

Send Text and SMS Messages from Alston Tascom
PageGate can easily be integrated with Alston's Tascom systems with the GetTAP module. Alston's Tascom systems can output the TAP protocol which GetTAP can accept.

Here's how to configure PageGate's GetTAP module to accept traffic from Tascom:

1) Open the PageGate Admin.

2) Go to Interfaces - GetTAP - Settings.

3) Set the "Serial Port" field to match the COM/Serial port the Tascom system is plugged in to.

4) Specify the following:

Baud Rate: Mirror the paging terminal's setting.
Parity: Mirror the paging terminal's setting.
Data Bits: Mirror the paging terminal's setting.
Stop Bits: Mirror the paging terminal's setting.
Init String: direct (You'll need to type this in the field)

5) Put a check in Enabled.

6) Click on Apply.
6a) When prompted, you do want to enable this for all existing groups and recipients.
