Hi, does anyone here remember or uses an analog modem connected to PSTN to send SMS?
It is not for GSM modem, but plain old analog modem.
What were the AT instructions to send?
What Swisscom gateway phone number do you use?
Thank you very much.

We used to use sms_client for that, yes.

Nothing inparticular.

I'm using landline SMS'ing now, but otherwise I think it was 079 499 9000 at 30Rp/SMS.
We're using an analog modem to send alert sms from what's up. We are connecting to 0794998990 and sending the message with the ucp protocol.
No special AT init commands are needed. Just ATDT0794998990
Regards,
Mike
I remember something we used at PETREL (like 15 years ago). We had to dial a number and using an expect script we had to go through a text menu for sending messages to a pager.
If I remember correctly, the settings were 1200 bauds, 7n1.. not totally sure here, it was a long time ago. I think that this service doesn't exist anymore (I mean, 1200 bauds!! lol).
see you, Pascal

Expect? Pager? We did that too! ;)) Here's the script: http://seegras.discordia.ch/Programs/sendsms
And yes, the service does not exist anymore.
Cheers Seegras
why not using a Siemens GSM terminal? It has the same RS232 port and AT command set, and you don't need a copper line (you would of course need a SIM card).

I don't get GSM signal reliably from the data center, so I just use a couple of left analog lines. :)
But I found sms_client source code archive and I got what I wanted.

Julien,
IIRC, we had to fix the code such that the origin phone-number could be set correctly. You might not need it, but by adding a digit to the originating number, we made the mobile phones make different beeps depending on the type of alert.

We use that one too, and it works like a charm. However it's not possible to operate a GSM device an every datacenter....
Cheers, Viktor

Maybe an external antenna? It could really improve the signal. At finecom we used Siemens 'fixed' GSM with serial and AT commands. Always worked like a charm.

And network in the datacenter... :)
But its a good device. I've used it before.
And for those interested in sending short messages on pagers (Swissphone), the Swisscom gateway doesn't work. So you can use 0740900103 instead.
There are 2 things one should know: * The message should not exceed 80 signs * The pager number must be in format (xxxyyzz) and not (074xxxyyzz)
I spent enough time to make a script working to send short messages (also using sms_client) to share this experience and prevent someone else to make that effort again.

Thanks for these information. :)
I knew that keeping some old modems was worth..
