GSM Module/Modem for SMS

ArchiverArchiver Posts: 46,084
edited 2004-02-02 12:21 in General Discussion
I would like to have a GSM Module connected to a Stamp, so that the
Stamp can dial and send an SMS when triggered by an event, or could
be phoned and given an SMS instruction.
I know that Siemens do a purpose built unit but it is very expensive
when compared to a mobile phone.
I also know someone who set up this type of system by soldering wires
into a mobile phone. I would prefer to use the proper thing (looking
for something at a reasonable price - if is is I2c copmatable all the
better.)

    Hi Ray,

    If you would like to do it the proper way at a reasonable price, take a look
    here:

    <http://www.warburtech.com/GSM/TC35i%20Terminal/TC35i%20Terminal.htm>

    Sending an SMS message from a BS2-IC using the Siemens TC35i modem is as
    simple as this:

    SMSSendMessage: SEROUT 0,16780,[noparse][[/noparse]"AT+CMGS=", 34, "+4412345678", 34, 13]
    SERIN 1,16780,[noparse][[/noparse]WAIT ("> ")]
    SEROUT 0,16780,[noparse][[/noparse]"Hello World!", 26]
    SERIN 1,16780,[noparse][[/noparse]WAIT ("+CMGS:")]
    RETURN

    The above code will send the message "Hello World!" to the mobile phone
    whose number is "+4412345678". If you need sample code for receiving SMS
    messages as well, just let me know.

    I hope this helps. Please contact me if you have any more questions. I look
    forward to hearing from you.

    Best regards,

    Russell Warburton

    Hi Gary,

    Yes, you will need a SIM card. However, the TC35i will not work in the US
    because it is DualBand. You will need a TriBand modem like the Siemens MC45
    Terminal. You can send an SMS message to a US mobile phone by removing the
    initial "0" from the area code and prefixing the number with "+1" which is
    the US country code. Please contact me if you would like more information. I
    look forward to hearing from you.

    Best regards,

    Thanks Russel - seems the Siemens route is the way to go - thanks for the
    code. I was hoping to find a cheaper alternative .
