Parameters 
<da>  GSM 03.40 TP-Destination-Address Address-Value field in

(or GSM default alphabet characters) are converted to characters of the

otherwise default is 129) 
<length>  Integer type value (not exceed 160 bytes) indicating in the 
text mode (+CMGF=1) the length of the message body <data> (or 
<cdata>) in characters; or in PDU mode (+CMGF=0), the length of the 
actual TP data unit in octets (i.e. the RP layer SMSC address octets are not 
counted in the length) 
Write Command

TA sends message from a TE to the network (SMS-SUBMIT). Message 
reference value <mr> is returned to the TE on successful message delivery. 
Optionally (when +CSMS <service> value is 1 and network supports) 
<scts> is returned. Values can be used to identify message upon unsolicited 
delivery status report result code. 
1) If text mode(+CMGF=1) and sending successful: 
+CMGS: <mr> 
OK 
2) If PDU mode(+CMGF=0) and sending successful:
