Integrate with Existing Applications
Integration with Novar Controls
These are the Advanced Polling options to use with Novar Control Software. From the example message, PageGate will: (1) Look for the Recipient in the first line between "SYSTEM " and "EP", use the Lookup Table to substitute "3001" with a PageGate Recipient name; (2) Use the entire text of the file as the message.
Increase the "Max Characters" setting for each Recipient, as messages may exceed the default 240 character limit.
