SMS_service.exe and SMS_service.ini are two resources related to SMS_service
functionality.
Configure SMS_service through the .INI file. The default values suit most environments. You
can change the parameter COM Port if COM1 is not available. Change the value according to
your environment, for example specify 3 if COM3 is available.
In the sample file illustrated in
Figure 168: Default configuration section on page 225, there is
a single INI file. There can be more than one instance of SMS_service with multiple Siemens
TC35i boxes. In most cases, only one Siemens TC35i is used and only a single instance of
eSMS and SMS_service is used.
When the service is started with the following shortcut, the default configuration section is
used.
