SMS device configuration

Network Monitor can send SMS through a modem connected to the Network Monitor host machine. The modem can either be a GSM phone or a modem capable of sending SMS via a fixed line service provider.

Before sending SMS, some configuration of the modem is required. This is done from the Email & SMS settings page.

Configuring the modem

Select the serial port the GSM modem is connected to.
Select the baud rate. Defaults to 9600.
(Optional) Enter the PIN code to unlock the SIM card.
Click the Save button to store the new settings.

SMS modem installation checklist

The device should be connected to a serial port, or USB port with serial emulation, on the Network Monitor host machine.

Connect the phone cable to the Network Monitor host machine.
Install the modem driver for your phone (if required).
With a terminal program connect to the phone.
Try to send a SMS by typing the following.
- ATZ
- KNM SMS TEST
- Press CTRL-Z
- AT+CMGF=1
- AT+CMGS="<PHONENUMBER>"
The SMS should now be sent. Remember to replace <PHONENUMBER> with the number of the receiving phone and keep the quote signs (e.g. "0068455"). On the last line you should press the CTRL-Z key combination.
The phone should answer with CMGS followed by a number indicating the ID of the sent SMS.
The phone is now ready for use by Network Monitor.
