Danfoss System Manager AK-SM SMS & voice call alerts – integration manual

Here we describe how to setup Danfoss System Manager AK-SM with SMSEagle for SMS alerts and notifications. The integration process is easy and should take 10-15 minutes to complete.

SMSEagle is an offline hardware SMS gateway. Therefore no external connection to 3rd party system is required. All notifications are generated on-premise and sent directly to a cellular network. This solution can be used in secure installations without Internet access.

SMSEagle Setup

This integration will use Email To SMS plugin (see details: Email To SMS plugin). This plugin is included in each version of SMSEagle device.
  • Enable Email To SMS plugin in web-GUI > menu Emails > Email to SMS > Settings tab.
  • Create a forwarding rule in the Rules tab. You can forward all emails to SMS or emails from specific domains.
