Peraton CAD ASCII Integration

Send Text and SMS Messages from Peraton CAD using ASCII
Peraton's CommandPoint has an interface that allows it to write text files to a folder when a dispatch needs to be sent. PageGate's GetAscii interface would then monitor the CAD output folder for triggers and send messages any time CAD drops a file in to the folder.

1) In Windows, browse in to your PageGateData directory. By default, c:\PageGateData\

2) Create a new folder and name it: ASCII

3) Open PG Admin.

4) Go to Interfaces - GetAscii - Settings

5) Enter the path to the directory you created in step 2. By default, c:\PageGateData\ASCII\

6) Check Enabled, click Apply and select 'Yes'.

7) Go to Interfaces - GetAscii - Advanced Polling - Files

8) Click Add.

9) Specify the following and click Apply:
Recipient: *
From: Leave Blank
File(s): *.txt
Path: The path to your Peraton output folder.
File Type: Standard

10) Click Apply again.

At this point, PageGate is now ready to start receiving dispatch triggers from Peraton!
