Send SMS for WinCC Alarm

Dear All,
here is our answer, when a friend ask about: How to send SMS automatically when Alarm is active in WinCC?

Alarm Control Center (ACC) from Siemens is the best tool for this purpose, and many other functionalities for Alarm handling (escalation).

But, if you want to use another application (more cheap/simple), we create a little application called Send_SMS.
Please make sure that you already have a GSM modem for sending SMS and make sure this modem is working. Remember the serial (COM) port which is  used by the modem.

There are 3 kind of work we will do:
1) download the file
2) edit Alarm Logging
3) edit Global Script

1. DOWNLOAD FILES
Please follow these steps:
> download the zip file here.
> rename the file extension from .JPG to .ZIP, then extract the file.
> there are 2 application, send_sms_w.exe is Windows application and send_sms_c.exe is Console.
> test sending SMS using send_sms_w.exe

> edit Settings of Port number, Baud rate, destination Phone number, SMS center.
> click Connect button.
> write some text, then click SEND button.
> check incomming SMS on destination phone.
> if the test above is success, then put send_sms_c.exe to the specified location, like on C:\ drive

2. EDIT ALARM LOGGING
> open Alarm Logging from WinCC Explorer.
> select the alarm messages which is you want to send SMS.
> check the Trigger Action option.

3. EDIT SCRIPT
> open Global Script C.
> select Standard functions > Alarm > GMsgFunction
> open the script and edit, to be like this:

#include "apdefap.h"

BOOL GMsgFunction( char* pszMsgData)

{

char s_sms [200];

MSG_RTDATA_STRUCT mRT;

  memset( &mRT, 0, sizeof( MSG_RTDATA_STRUCT ) );

  if( pszMsgData != NULL )

  {

     printf( "Meldung : %s \r\n", pszMsgData );

    // Meldungsdaten einlesen

     sscanf( pszMsgData,  "%ld,%ld,%04d.%02d.%02d,%02d:%02d:%02d:%03d,%ld, %ld, %ld, %d,%d",

&mRT.dwMsgNr,  // Meldungsnummer

&mRT.dwMsgState,   // Status MSG_STATE_COME, .._GO, .._QUIT, .._QUIT_SYSTEM

&mRT.stMsgTime.wYear,  // Jahr

&mRT.stMsgTime.wMonth,  // Monat

&mRT.stMsgTime.wDay, // Tag

&mRT.stMsgTime.wHour,  // Stunde

&mRT.stMsgTime.wMinute, // Minute

&mRT.stMsgTime.wSecond,  // Sekunde

&mRT.stMsgTime.wMilliseconds, // Millisekunde

&mRT.dwTimeDiff, // Zeitdauer der anstehenden Meldung

&mRT.dwCounter, // Interner Meldungszähler

&mRT.dwFlags, // Flags( intern )

&mRT.wPValueUsed,

&mRT.wTextValueUsed );

      // Prozesswerte lesen, falls gewünscht

    } 

  printf("Nr : %d, St: %x, %d-%d-%d %d:%d:%d.%d, Dur: %d, Cnt %d, Fl %d\r\n" , 

  mRT.dwMsgNr, mRT.dwMsgState, mRT.stMsgTime.wDay, mRT.stMsgTime.wMonth, mRT.stMsgTime.wYear, 

  mRT.stMsgTime.wHour, mRT.stMsgTime.wMinute, mRT.stMsgTime.wSecond, mRT.stMsgTime.wMilliseconds, mRT.dwTimeDiff,

  mRT.dwCounter, mRT.dwFlags ) ;

if (mRT.dwMsgState == 1)

{

printf ("send sms..");

sprintf(s_sms, "C:\\send_sms_c.exe 1 9600 +6281234567890 +628100000 \"Test Alarm %d\"", mRT.dwMsgNr);

ProgramExecute(s_sms);

}

   return( TRUE );

}

* the red one is the additional script.

* edit path of file, port number, baud rate, phone number, SMS center

> you can modify the content of message, on the example above, we just send a message number of alarm.
> save and go test runtime WinCC.

Thank you.

CyrusConnector : Autoconnect modem by SMS

Cyrus adalah aplikasi untuk modem Telkomsel Flash

CyrusConnector adalah aplikasi yang kami buat agar modem bisa melakukan koneksi ke internet melalui perintah dari SMS. aplikasi ini berjalan di "belakang layar" jadi tidak ada tampilannya.

Latar belakang pembuatan aplikasi ini adalah karena ada beberapa komputer kami yang terpasang di tempat yang jauh di luar kota, dan kami ingin mengaksesnya via TeamViewer. Kami memasang modem USB di komputer tersebut. Karena tidak setiap saat komputer tersebut harus terhubung ke internet, maka kami ingin membuat aplikasi yang bisa memeriksa SMS, jika isi SMS tersebut adalah perintah untuk konek ke internet maka aplikasi akan melakukan koneksi internet dengan membuka aplikasi Cyrus dan menekan tombol Connect pada aplikasi tersebut.
Berikut adalah flow dari aplikasi CyrusConnector:

Application Run with OS Startup
> cek cyrus application
- if not run
  > run Cyrus application
> cek SMS inbox
- if there new SMS command to Connect
  > cek internet
  - if not connect
    > show cyrus window
    > set foreground
    > move to zero position
    > click on Connect button

Catatan:
>  simpan aplikasi CyrusConnector pada folder Startup agar bisa berjalan saat Windows startup.
>  untuk mengirim perintah konek, kirim SMS berisi "#connect#" (tanpa tanda petik) ke nomor yang ada di modem.
> aplikasi CyrusConnector baru ditest untuk modem Telkomsel Flash saja, modem lain belum tentu bisa.

Silahkan unduh aplikasi CyrusConnector disini.
*klik-kanan > Save Target As.. atau Save Link As..
*ganti ekstensi .JPG menjadi .EXE
*bagi yang mau source code nya, via email saja ya..

Sekian dan terima kasih.. :)
