For what events are SMS alerts sent. SMS messages are sent through a GSM modem connected to Master Controller. Thus, connection to the computer running Master Controller must be available for the SMS messaging to work.

Recipients of the SMS messages are defined in global settings, in Global settings / Alerts / Phone numbers for SMS alerts .

Library service error: Email is sent when the library server SIP connection is lost.

Printer error: Email is sent when the printer goes to an error state, for example it runs out of paper.

Printer warning: Email is sent if the printer alerts that it is low on paper. Note that this requires that the printer has a paper-near-end sensor, and that the correct drivers (POS drivers) are used.

Reader error: Email is sent when an RFID reader or barcode reader goes into error state. This could mean power loss on the reader, or the reader communications stop responding.

Sorter device error: Email is sent when the sorter hardware controller goes into error state. This is also shown on screen as "Device error" (red screen).

Note that the library service error is caused by a network failure, it may not be possible to send email messages either.
