Hi,
Kannel flags indicate unicode, not even binary. Kannel supports 7-bit, but
in this case you recive unicode. The Xser field comes also from the SMSc. I
don't know what the fields of Xser mean, but you can see the actual SMS
received from bb debug logs to decide for yourself if it is Unicode or
7-bit. It is probably Unicode.
If that is the case contact your SMSc and ask them what value they are
sending for the Xser field. Else post detailed bb logs with the MO
reception.
BR,
Nikos

Subject: EMI XSer 02, GSM DCS information
Hi guys,
i have an issue with EMI protocol for the MO scenario. Sometimes my gateway
receive message with binary body. When received this type of message, i
found
flags:-1:2:-1:0:-1 , with coding set to UCS-2, and the XSer field with this
information, 020100.
In the emi specification 4.0, i found:
Example encoding of XSer Type of service 02, GSM DCS information:
020100, meaning that the DCS value 00 (0000 0000 binary) is used.
According to the GSM03.38 specification, this means 7-bit default alphabet,
no
compression, no message class meaning.
Now, i dont understand if this type of message must be considered as 7-bit,
and if so, kannel does not support this specification?
thanks.
