i-Page Message
Dispatch Software for Paging & Text Messaging
i-Page is
communications software for the dispatching
of text or SMS messages to a variety of wireless
messaging devices. It is primarily designed
for networked client/server operations although
a single user version is available (i-Page
Personal Edition).
i-Page utilizes IP communications between the
server and clients enabling clients on a local
and/or wide area network to send messages to
pagers and other text capable wireless devices
such as cellular phones, MDTs etc.
The i-Page server software is located on a
centralized PC with access to the carriers
to which it is to communicate. The server
may have any number of carriers of various
protocols and communications mediums and which
may be local or remote (see comms protocols
below.)
The i-Page Client is loaded on to each
PC requiring the ability to send messages.
Clients may be located anywhere on the LAN or
WAN with normal access to the server.
Alarm clients may also be connected to automatically
generate alphanumeric messages in response to
alarm events.
Contacts are contained either in a local or
a shared database with a cascading Explorer-like
folder structure. Groups may be set up
to allow a single message to be sent to multiple
contacts in one hit and may consist of contacts
of different types connected to different carriers.
There are no limits imposed on the number of
carriers, contacts or groups.
