Salcom VisualPet – Software Overview
VisualPet software configurations allow the routing of messages from multiple input sources to
multiple output destinations, ie:
Inputs:
Salcom 11-36 Fone Page PET / TAP
TNPP
Free Form Scripted Protocols
Email ( SMTP / POP )
Internet
Selcall
X25 Pacnet
Outputs:
Salcom Paging Transmitters
PET / TAP
Selcall
Email (SMTP / POP )
Free Form Scripted Protocols
Internet
X25 Pacnet
TNPP
The Free Form Scripted Protocols allow scripted configuration of just about any industry protocol.
Salcom can create protocols to suit any application where a message or packet of information needs
to be monitored, routed and delivered.
Protocols can be configured to operate using RS232 serial or TCP/IP. Eg: TNPP or PET over IP for
long distance or network message delivery connections
Salcom can create and add specific protocols for any type of message or information delivery,
including SCADA applications. Protocols for handling SMS from specific cellular modems, SMS
IP based gateways, XML data via IP, Flex and POCSAG Decoders are other examples.
Each message route allows delivery to multiple destinations from a single source message. The VP
Router can translate contact, message type, and specific protocol information for any inbound and
outbound message. For example an inbound PET message can be forwarded onto a pager through a
12-62 with a copy sent via email and TNPP to another paging vendor.
Multiple inbound and outbound messages can be handled at one time, with complete logging of all
message transactions.
A message delivery failure from a lost serial or ethernet connection can generate an alarm route
which will contain the connection, contact and message that failed.
Contacts within the router are easily added, modified and deleted.
