Gents;
Seding SMS (or cereiving SMS) can be done easy server side from the IBMi using a few external components:
1) MOXA-box (Nport 5110A)
2) a Siemens TC65 mobile terminal.
You make a simple TCP/IP connection to the MOXA-box. The MOXA box has a RS-232 connected to the TC65 which send the SMS vis simple AT commands.
This can be done server side directly from RPG and some simple socket API's…
We are doing this in our SMS BlueNote product – it works just great….

Subject: Re: [WEB400] Best Approach for Sending Text Messages from Web App
Are you refeing to SMS (mobile devices) ?
We'are using this (sending text SMS messages) to mobile devices, now you've
even an API for sending whatsapp messages but mobiles needs data-enabled.
Several carriers sells API for sms groups, you will need buy blocks of 100,
500, 1000... and using the info in the API, we've resolved this using
sockets, several years ago, a more simple way could be using an pc as
gateway.

All,
Anyone have insight/advice/gotachas for the following:
We have a client that provides utility (residential and commercial
water) to city residence. We are building an application to allow
citizens to see and track their water usage. A new requirement is to
ALERT them if their water usage exceeds a user defined limit. The
current alert use automated email but now they are requesting the
optional feature of sending a text message to the public. Example
scenario: your water line breaks while you are away at vacation, you
would get a TEXT message stating that your water usage has exceeded
100,000 gallons or whatever your limit is.
I know we can send texts using simple email if you know the carrier
(verizon, att, etc) but this requires the user to select their carrier
which may change. Anyone have experience texting using any of the WS
APIs that return carrier and email information based on a cell number
passed in?
Thanks in advance, Paul
