You will find the character set supported for the text of the SMS message in the section
Character set for messages (Page 166).
For the configuration of the SMSC, refer to the section SMSC (Page 103).
If important events occur, the CP can send e-mails. The recipient can be a PC with an
Internet connection or an S7-1200.
You configure the e-mails in STEP 7 in the data point and message configuration. You can
find this using the project tree:
Project > directory of the relevant station > Local modules > CP
For the view in STEP 7, refer to the section Data point configuration (Page 128).
Triggering sending of messages
The sending of the message is triggered by an event that is configured in the "Trigger" tab
(see below).
