Parameter Type Description
<tosca> Number Type of address of <sca> - octet in Number format (for more details see the 3GPP TS
24.008 [12]); default 145 when string includes '+', otherwise default 129
<length> Number Two meanings:
• in text mode: number of characters
• in PDU mode: PDU's length in octets without the Service Center's address. In
example 039121430100038166F6000004E374F80D: this is a PDU with Service
Center's number +1234, that generates the address 03912143 (4 octets). Thus in
this case <length> = 13.
<data> String In the case of SMS: 3GPP TS 23.040 [8] TP-User-Data in text mode responses;
format:
• if <dcs> indicates that 3GPP TS 23.038 [7] GSM 7 bit default alphabet is used and
<fo> indicates that 3GPP TS 23.040 [8] TP-User-Data-Header-Indication is not set:
o if TE character set other than "HEX" (see +CSCS command description): ME/
TA converts GSM alphabet into current TE character set according to rules of
Annex A
o if TE character set is "HEX": ME/TA converts each 7-bit character of GSM
7 bit default alphabet into two IRA character long hexadecimal number (e.g.
character Æ (GSM 7 bit default alphabet 28) is presented as 1C (IRA 49 and 67))
• if <dcs> indicates that 8-bit or UCS2 data coding scheme is used, or <fo> indicates
that 3GPP TS 23.040 [8] TP-User-Data-Header-Indication is set: ME/TA converts
each 8-bit octet into two IRA character long hexadecimal number (e.g. octet with
integer value 42 is presented to TE as two characters 2A (IRA 50 and 65))
In the case of CBS: 3GPP TS 23.041 [9] CBM Content of Message in text mode
responses; format:
• if <dcs> indicates that 3GPP TS 23.038 [7] GSM 7 bit default alphabet is used:
o if TE character set other than "HEX" (see +CSCS command description): ME/
TA converts GSM alphabet into current TE character set according to rules of
Annex A
o if TE character set is "HEX": ME/TA converts each 7-bit character of the GSM 7
bit default alphabet into two IRA character long hexadecimal number
• if <dcs> indicates that 8-bit or UCS2 data coding scheme is used: ME/TA converts
each 8-bit octet into two IRA character long hexadecimal number
<da> String Destination address
<toda> Number Type of address of <da> - octet
<vp> Number Format depending of the <fo> setting:
• Relative format: validity period starting from when the SMS is received by the
SMSC, in range 0-255 (default value 167); for more details see the 3GPP TS 23.040
[8]
<vp> Validity period value
0 to 143 (TP-VP + 1) x 5 minutes (i.e. 5 minutes
intervals up to 12 hours)
144 to 167 12 hours + ((TP-VP -143) x 30 minutes)
168 to 196 (TP-VP - 166) x 1 day
197 to 255 (TP-VP - 192) x 1 week
• Absolute format: absolute time of the validity period termination in string format
("yy/MM/dd,hh:mm:ss+zz") (see the 3GPP TS 23.040 [8]); the time zone is
expressed in steps of 15 minutes. The range goes from -48 to +56
<mr> Number Message reference
<ra> String Recipient address field
<tora> Number Type of address of <ra> - octet
<dt> String Discharge time in format "yy/MM/dd,hh:mm:ss+zz"; the time zone is expressed in
steps of 15 minutes. The range goes from -48 to +56
<st> Number Status of an SMS STATUS-REPORT
<ct> Number TP-Command-Type (default 0)
<mn> Number See the 3GPP TS 23.040 [8] TP-Message-Number in integer format
<cdata> String TP-Command-Data in text mode responses
<sn> Number CBM serial number
<mid> Number CBM message identifier
<page> Number 3GPP TS 23.041 [9] CBM Page Parameter bits 4-7 in integer format
