Figure 47: eASYNC settings
The following overview explains the eASYNC settings:
• Type
The type is either SMS for SMS messages to GSM phones, or Paging for Wide Area
Paging.
• Provider
This is the name of the (GSM) provider that provides the dial-in option for SMS or Wide
Area paging.
Note:
This field only supports the following names: BELGACOM, PROXIMUS, and KPN:
- BELGACOM refers to the Wide Area paging protocol.
- PROXIMUS and KPN refer to the Universal Computer Protocol (UCP) for SMS
messages, where PROXIMUS is the Belgium provider, and KPN the Dutch provider.
The difference between PROXIMUS and KPN is that PROXIMUS requires a
password (proximus) to dial in, and KPN does not require a password. In both cases
the UCP protocol is used, and that protocol is supported by many other GSM SMS
providers.
• Settings/Serial port settings
The serial port settings depends on the settings that are supported by the provider. Almost
all providers support the following settings: 9600 b/s, no parity, 8 bits, 1 stop bit
(9600,N,8,1).
• Telephone Number
