User Manual

The Config Widget is Here

There are 4 buttons in the Widget which do the following.

Button 1 (logo). This Enables/Disables Cadpage. When disabled Cadpage will not catch calls and the other 2 icons are hidden.

Button 2 (Bell). This Enables/Disables Notifications. When Disabled you will receive no notifications.

Button 3 (Talk Bubble). This Enables/Disables Pop Up Alerts. When disabled you will not receive a PopUp on new calls.

Button 4 (Number Box). This shows the number of Unread messages. When Pressed it will open the CADPage App.

    Button 4 is currently broken in that it does not automatically update the number. We are working on this.

    • Override location filter - Checkbox - When checked, allows user From: (Filter) setting to override the sender address filter associated with the currently selected location(s)

  • From: (Filter) - Text - Email addresses or phone numbers.  Cadpage will only consider messages sent from these sources as possible CAD pages. Specified filter only has to match any portion of the actual sender address.  Multiple entries can be separated by a comma.  An empty string will match anything

    • Process general alerts - checkbox - If checked, Cadpage will process any message that passes the sender address filter(s) but is not recognized as a valid CAD page as a general alert.  General alerts are displayed as they are received, and can never be mapped.

  • Show page source - checkbox - If checked, show the source of each CAD page in the call display screen.  Off by default on the theory that most users only respond to one station or department and don't need to see that department code on every call.  Can be turned on for users who respond to multiple stations or departments

  • Callback Number - Text - If set this will enable a phone icon on the Alert that can be pressed and this phone number will then be called. This is for departments with phone based response status.

    • Split message timeout - text - Number of seconds Cadpage will wait for an addition text message to merge into the currently received messages to recreate a split message page

    • Split message min count - list - Minimum number of text message Cadpage will attempt to merge into a split message CAD page.  Cadpage will process a call with less than this number of messages only after the Split message timeout has been exceeded

    • Reverse split msg order - checkbox - When multiple messages are merged into a single CAD page, and the message order is not apparent from the message content, this setting determines how the merged page will be constructed.  If not checked, the message will be constructed with the first received message first.  If checked, the message will be constructed with the first message last.

    • Insert Blanks in Split msg - checkbox - When multiple text messages are merged into a single CAD page, this determines whether a blank should be inserted between the text messages or not.  The correct setting can be hard to determine.  If you see data with inappropriate blanks you might want to uncheck this.  If you see data with missing blanks, you might want to check this.  Changign this setting either way migtht help if your text messages are not being recognized as CAD pages.

    • Split msg check Sender addr - checkbox - When multiple messages are merged into a single CAD page, this setting determines the the sender addresses must match.  Two addresses are considered to match if they are numerically sequential.  This should be left checked except for very rare circumstances

    • Suppress duplicate calls - checkbox - if checked text messages that are exact duplicates of previous received text messages will be ignored.  They will not be processed by Cadpage or passed to the messaging app

    • Publish CAD pages - checkbox - if checked, the parsed data from received text pages will be made available for any third party apps that want to process it.  The only such app we now about currently is Firefighter Log.
