CONFIGURING SMS

60 MultiConnect

rCell 100 MTR-EV3 User Guide

Whitelist: If enabled, SMS commands can only be received from a number in the whitelist (you

must enter a phone number).

Enter the phone number and click Add Number.

Note: Due to differences between service providers, for every US number you add to

the Whitelist, create two separate entries: 1) one using the phone number and 2) the

other using 1 + phone number.

3. Refer to the Required SMS Command Format field to see the format based on your chosen settings.

4. Click Submit.

5. To save your changes, click Save and Restart.

Here is an example SMS Command (#serial – Server mode):

Serial-IP Port Status:

Mode: Server

Protocol: SSL/TLS

Port: 3000

TX Bytes: 1234567

RX Bytes: 123456789

DCD Status: ON

2016-11-20 19:22

The response message to all SMS commands includes a time stamp. The time stamp format is YYYY-MM-DD

HH:MM.

The system adds the time stamp to the existing commands at the end of the SMS message. In case the message

exceeds the 160 character limit, the device information and the occurred event are not truncated. Only the time

stamp is lost.
