Setting up SMS commands
Caution
The commands are only valid with upper case letters.
You can only enter one type of command at a time using SMS.
The maximum SMS length is 140–160 characters, if a setting outside the allowed range is requested or there is another error in the message, the setting change will not be performed.
Tip
Refer to Subs. List of Parameters for an overview of parameters and their identifiers.
Command | SMS format | Example | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
Reading Information (INF) | EG INF <pwd> | EG INF initial_pasword | The command response includes information on the device serial number, FW version, IMEI and IMSI, roaming, signal strength, mains power status, battery status and time to battery replacement. The content of the response can be set using the INF Message Format parameter. In case 2 SIM cards are used in the device, both IMSI versions will be sent in the SMS reply, the other information only refers to the active SIM card. |
Parameter Reading (GET) | EG GET <pwd> <p1> [<p2> [<p3> …]] | “EG GET initial_pasword 150 swg_enable sim1_pin” A command for getting information on the My2N settings, SMS function on the device and the PIN code | For the GET and SET commands it is possible to use multiple parameters at once, the separating character of each parameter is a space. Parameters are entered with a numerical / text identifier and can be combined. We recommend using numerical identifiers, which contain fewer characters. |
Parameter Change (SET) | EG SET <pwd> <p1>=<v1> [<p2>=<v2> [<p3>=<v3> …]] | “EG SET initial_pasword 150=1 sgw_period=60 sim1=1234 243=(internet.t-mobile.cz)” Command for enabling the My2N service, setting the INF message period to every 60 minutes, changing SIM 1 PIN to 1234 and setting APN): | For the GET and SET commands it is possible to use multiple parameters at once, the separating character of each parameter is a space. Parameters are entered with a numerical / text identifier and can be combined. We recommend using numerical identifiers, which contain fewer characters. This command allows you to change parameter values; configurable parameters must be assigned numbers. If entered as a text, the parameter must be enclosed in round brackets. |
Password Change (PWD) | EG PWD <pwd> <new_pwd> | “EG PWD initial_pasword amber” The new version of the initial password will be set as amber. | |
Factory Defaults (DEF) | EG DEF <pwd> | “EG DEF initial_pasword” Sending the command will restore the device factory settings and reboot the device. | |
Device Restart (RST) | EG RST <pwd> | “EG RST initial_pasword” The device is restarted. | |
Response (OK / ERR) | EG [OK|ERR] msg=<msg> cmd=<cmd> seq=<seq> | ||
Response with setpoint (VAL / INF) | EG [VAL|INF] <p1>=<v1> [<p2>=<v2> …] | ||
Events (EVT) |
