Unable to send SMS via USB modem

thomasschmeidl · Post by **thomasschmeidl** » Thu Dec 28, 2006 9:35 am

Hi Darren,

we have a clickatell-account (www.clickatell.com) using the http-API.
Opening the account you get a username, a password and an API-ID (it is possible to adress more than one ID within one account)

The SMS are sent using the HTTP-Request-Action with the following parameters:

- Host: api.clickatell.com
- Port: 80
- Request: %udv_smsheader%%udv_smstext%%udv_smsfooter%

using the following udvs (the " are not part of the string):
- %udv_smsheader% = "GET http://api.clickatell.com/http/sendmsg? ... MBER&text="
- %udv_smstext% = "MYSMSTEXTCONTAININGOTHERVARIABLES"
- %udv_smsfooter% = " HTTP/1.0" (note: there must be a blank as first Character)

Maybe you can use it

Thomas

Lets try version 6.51e Beta, available at www.ks-soft.net/download/hm651e.zip
It provides new "Z-text" modem (GSM page in the Options dialog).

Regards
Alex

Hi,

1st day back...

Thomas, thank for this info I'll have crack at this ASAP.

Alex, I'll get this is installed, am I OK to go straight to 6.51e or do I have to install the the other versions available first? I'm currently running 6.42c

Cheers Darren

Please note, you have to install version 6.51 of HostMonitor before using this update: http://www.ks-soft.net/hostmon.eng/downpage.htm

One of our techies had a quick play and reports things are OK, we will be doing some full testing over the next few days.

Hi,

I've upgraded to 6.51e and tested, I'm now not getting any SMS's and when I select the Z-text SMS Modem and select Test I get the following error.

'SMS Error: The specified module could not be found'

Is there anything obvious you can think off? If not I'll hang on until your techies have chance to play.

Cheers Darren

have you set the COM port to 2400? as this is the only speed the modem suports.

dazhallt5 · Post by **dazhallt5** » Thu Jan 04, 2007 5:59 am

Yeah I've got the Com Port set as 2400 on the Com Port it's self as well as in Hostmonitor.

Baud Rate = 2400

Mode = PDU also tested as Text

Could it be the PIN?

Service Center number has stayed the same 147017094009

It sounds like a KS problem.

Check you have the latest KSGsmxlib.ocx file in the KS folder.

Have you seen any errors during installation? Log should apper just on the screen. Did you properly decompress hm651e.zip file? Looks like KSGsmXLib.ocx is missed.

You should go to the folder, where ver 6.51 is installed an where you have placed the 6.51e update (two files: hostmon.exe and KSGsmXLib.ocx). Please execute the following command from the command line prompt:

Code: Select all

regsvr32 KSGsmXLib.ocx

Max

Cheers Paul,

Copied the included in the KSGsmxlib.ocx with the 6.51e patch in the hostmonitor dir. I'm assuming this is the latest one?

KSGsmxlib.ocx from the patch is exactly what you need.

I suppose, you have been using several instances of HostMonitor, right? E.g 6.42 and 6.51 Beta? To ensure HostMonitor uses properly KSGsmxlib.ocx, please create and execute following .bat file:

Code: Select all

C:
cd C:\HostMon_Path\
regsvr32 KSGsmXLib.ocx

Instead of HostMon_Path you should specify real path to the folder, where the latest version of HostMonitor (with patch) is installed.
