About this app

This is a general purpose application for sending SMS commands to remote devices, such as house alarms, GSM actuators, etc. and for receiving and logging the event alerts.

You can add an unlimited number of devices and set for each of them an Alias ( for instance: "Home alarm" ), a Phone number ( complete with international prefix ) and an optional Password. Moreover, you can define a set of SMS commands: each command is composed by an Alias ( for instance: "Activate alarm" ) and a Code representing the SMS text to be sent to the selected device. The password associated to the device is used to prefix of the command code for a secure access.

For each device it is possible to set up to 5 input alarms, with specific settings:
when the phone receives an SMS from the device phone number and the message text includes the Alarm code, it highlights a red led related to the alarm number on the app's interface and it adds a notification on the status bar. You may also configure the phone for additional signalings:

- chassis vibration
- text to speech of the alarm message
- playing of a custom audio file, such as a recorded "alarm siren" sound

For stopping the audio you have just to tap the red led.
The alert logs for each device are kept in system memory and you can have a report of all the occurred events, even if you shut down and restart the phone.
