Sending SMS Messages from Terminal Devices Using MSComm Control.

[Pankil]

Hi All,

I have read the Topic on "Sending SMS Messages from Terminal Devices
by Al Pritchard" on this Site (DevX)

My Problem is How to Send (Ctrl-Z) Character to the Mobile to Hang up the
Phone. I have Tried ^z, Chr$(26) (for Ctrl+Z Pressed Together), Chr$(13)
(Carraige Return), (ctrl-Z) etc...
But No Success.

Any Help will be Appriciated.

Thank you.

Hi Pankil,
you assign Chr$(26) to a string & then send out. ie...

dim sendText as String
sendText = "mobileNumber" + Chr$(26)

MSComm1.Output = sendText + Chr$(13)

Hope this will work..

Hi,

I am using some commands for the siemens m20 Terminal.
when i use the hyperterminal, i get teh information properly
MSComm1.Output = "AT+CSCA?" & vbCrLf

but when i use the above from vb,
RichTextBox1.Text = MSComm1.Input
the response is not being displayed... though is contains some things.. what
could be the reason... do i have to explicity convert to string and parse
it... any idea will be greatly appreciated..

Hi Pankil
If u r using vb and mscomm control use following code
mscomm.output= 12(length of pdu) & chr$(13)
wait for ">" to come from modem then
mscomm.output= sms pdu & Chr$(26)
It will solve u r problem
Bye

Hi,

As I mentioned in another devx forum, I'm using chr(26) for (Ctrl-z). It
works great for VB6, using MSComm & a Motorola Timeport.

I have no idea it crashes your mobile but thought this might help.

Hello

I have nokia 6230 and i want to interface it with PC to send sms through VB 6.

Respected Sir

I found your website really useful. I badly need ur help.

Actually, In my project, I am using some sensors connected to microcontroller and the microcontroller is interfaced to PC. The readings of the sensors is shown on the PC in Visual Basic 6.

For example, LM35 measures temperature. Incase, there is extreme increase in temperature, an SMS should be sent to the owner or any hospital or any place. For this I have to interface mobile to PC. I need the code in VB 6 to send sms. I have two mobiles: nokia 3310 and nokia 6230. Which one would be easy to use. I think, i can get the data cable for 6230. Can u plz tell me the name for the data cable of 3310. Is it called dau-9p or it has any other name?


For nokia 6230, I want to know about FBus and MBus. I mean, the pin diagram, the connections needed to connect with PC. I want to connect it through serial port. I am getting 0.5V and 4.5V from MAX232, but after this, I dont know, what connections are required? Plz help me.

I need the code in VB 6 to send sms. I know, its long back, u had posted this question, but plz help me. Plz send me the correct code in VB to send sms and do i need to instal any file before creating the form. what is nokia component, i read this somewhere.

Thanks alot for helping...

May God reward you...
