Re: [asterisk-users] Sending SMS from asterisk
chan_datacard was discontinnued two years ago, chan_dongle is the current dongle driver for asterisk. chan_mobile uses bluetooth mobile phones as FXO devices. to send SMS chan_dongle should be used. i.e: asterisk -rx [ENTER] dongle sms dongle0 0415340999 hello world this command will send and SMS to 0415340999 by dongle0. -- == Miguel Oyarzo Senior [ Network | Systems Design ] Engineer http://www.linkedin.com/in/mikeaustralia Linux User: # 483188 - counter.li.org Melbourne, Australia On 3/14/2013 9:15 AM, Asghar Mohammad wrote: HI bilal, I don't think DAHDI can send SMS you have 2 options chan_mobile or chan_datacard ex chan_dongle chan_datacard i have not tested but with some mobile phones you can send sms i have tested also with some made in china unbranded phone that are capable to send and receive sms but not good for call termination, they send answer on connect. not all BT dongles are compatible you should go to trail and error for finding combination of dongle and phone.

mobile not connect with asterisk
asterisk 1.6.0 line 275 is addr.rc_channel = (uint8_t) 1; change

asterisk 1.6.2.x line 1290 is addr.rc_channel = (uint8_t) 1; change
to addr.rc_channel = (uint8_t) 0;
asterisk 1.6.2.x from line 2022
if (buf[i] == ',') {
state++;
}
case 1: /* find the opening quote () */
if (buf[i] == '') {
state++;

Re: [asterisk-users] Sending SMS from asterisk
What are the elements of this solution? Is it only: 3G dongles and chan_dongle only? Or there are something else? Bash and perl programing, asterisk and chan_dongle. About the script that you wrot it: This script is using asterisk (through AMI) to send the SMS? Or it is working without need for asterisk? In this case, where is the benifit of using Asterisk to send the SMS? It uses the asterisk API. The only benefit I found was the queue management for high volume of sending/receiving. As asterisk can't send SMS more than160-characters, I had to work out how to do it (PDU alteration). Anyway, 160-characters limit should be enough for most users.

Re: [asterisk-users] Sending SMS from asterisk
Hi there, for sending SMSes I am using a 3G Modem and SMSlib... it is not bound to asterisk in any way, but I always wanted to integrate this possibility some day. I could not do so, because our landline provider (Vodafone) does not support it via E1 PRI lines... by I thought (never tried...) if it would be possible to use the SMS ServiceNumber from my mobile Provider...? I have a valid mobile contract, the number of the SMScc , my Cardnumber (t-mobile), my phonenumber and so on... so it should be possible, I think... but how?

Using system() is almost always a hack -- and not the good kind :)

You have a choice: you can pass them as channel variables or as command
line options. I use both, frequently in the same program. Unfortunately, I
can't clearly articulate why I use one over the other. If the variable is
something that exists for the life of the call like ${CLIENT-ID} I tend to
access it as a channel variable. If it's something that modifies the
behavior of the AGI (--debug or --verbose) I always pass it as a command
line option and use getopt_long()
First, you need to pick a language. If this is a SOHOish hobby project, it
doesn't matter -- pick a language you are comfortable with.
If this is a high volume, performance critical project -- I'd vote for c.
Once you've decided on a language, search out an established AGI library
and learn a bit about the protocol. It's very simple but not always
obvious. The 3 biggest stumbling blocks that trip up programmers are:
1) You have to read the AGI environment before anything else.
2) It's a request followed by a response. If you don't read the response,
bad things will happen.
3) It's STDIN/STDOUT based. If you try to debug by writing variables or
messages using echo/printf/puts/etc, bad things will happen.

Hi,
how do you get the text to send?
text that is sent from X-Lite for example.

I forgot to mention that you have to get a GSM modem or a compatible phone to send the messages, with this set up you dont have to worry about negotiating with carriers.

I build a Kannel server so that it can talk to a terminal that is on the network and can send messages. (It's an awful lot of extra hardware just for messaging capacity that will only be used by a few users, though.) What if I don't want to get my own terminal? Then you need to talk to someone who offers connectivity into the operators. Most operators wont allow direct connectivity unless you delivering 10's of millions of SMSs per month and you'll have to go through an aggregator. Can you show me an example of an aggregator? I don't know in the US? There are some ... they'll have an API and you then utilise that API to inject messages.

[asterisk-users] Sending SMS from Asterisk
Hi: Say I want to build an IVR application which sends an SMS message to a mobile telephone when the caller responds to a prompt in certain way. I think I can manage the part about generating the message and building something to actually send it. The part I'm foggy about is: how would I actually get the SMS message to the carrier? Discussions with the carrier have led absolutely nowhere (they are not interested in helping an individual customer and technical staff Tiers I and II have no idea what I am talking about). Are there SMS aggregators that I could use for sending messages to this particular phone over the Internet? Thanks for any input. -Stephen- ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

I've had messages take hours to arrive when sent by the email-to-SMS gateway. I was kinda hoping for something more direct. Rogers prioritizes internal SMS messages over e-mailed ones. What I'd like is some kind of SMSC -- or something that accomplishes the same thing. Any ideas? -Stephen- ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
