SMS Provider for OTAP SMS | Telit Cinterion IoT Developer Community
November 26, 2015 - 4:05pm, 3393 views
I found only one SMS provider, BulkSMS, that is able to send an OTAP-SMS in PDU-format.
Does anybody know another provider that is able to send OTAP-SMS in PDU-format?
Or is it even possible to send OTAP SMS without requiring the PDU Format?
Thanks in advance for any help on this.
Hello,
The requirements are not so strict: 8 or 7 bit encoding, PDU Class1 or Class0, PID $7d or PID $00.
Additionally there's a parameter "Ignore SMS PID" in the AT^SJOTAP command.

Anyone with ideas on this?
Old post, but still relevant. PDU isn't difficult, but it requires having a physical modem plugged in. And we're striving to eliminate physical constraints.
Using an SMS-PDU service would eliminate a pair of modems I have sitting in a pair of server rooms... and one of the last reasons for having server rooms.
(Genuinely frustrating part is the OTAP get-from-URL message is 100% text. A text SMS would have worked just fine.)

Hello,
In fact if you activate the "Ignore SMS PID" option with AT^SJOTAP command you can send the OTAP SMS even in text format. You could then use for example another or same module to test it, you just need to remember while using CMGS command that all characters entered behind the prompt ">" will be recognized as GSM characters. This is particularly important because of "_" which is encoded differently in GSM character.
But you would probably like to use some external SMS service instead of the module. You need to test if that would work.
