alarm clock


Explanation:
Si se trata de un reloj despertador.
Pero estoy de acuerdo que también puede ser wake-up call cuando se trata por ejemplo del servicio que dan los hoteles o líneas telefónicas y nos llaman por teléfono para despertarnos a la hora que les indiquemos.
Espero que le sea de alguna utilidad.
Suerte.

the phrase has to be taken as a whole:


Explanation:
"mensajes de despertador no contestado" = "ring no answer (RNA) messages"

"If the option is not activated, ring no answer (RNA) messages will be sent for each attempt."

If you like, substitute "actuated" for "activated," and/or "generated" for "sent."
