<h3>Hardware compatibility</h3>
<!-- START --><p>
This Software needs a GSM modem with SMS command set according to the european specification GSM 07.05 (=ETSI TS 300 585), 
a character-based interface with hex-encoded binary transfer of message blocks ("PDU Mode") of it, 
and alphabet support according to the GSM 03.38 (=ETSI TS 100 900).
<p>
The list of all AT commands used in SMS Server Tools 3 is <a href="at-commands.html">here</a>.
<p>
Mobile phones have more often compatibility issues than real GSM modems.
<p>
Some USB devices are not supported by Unix operating systems.
<p>
<b>The following list is incomplete and very old, mostly from the version 1.x times and it's not actively updated.</b> It shows devices that are reported as well working:

Probably all mobile phones support status report but you cannot
read them out with a computer. Status reports appear only on the phones display.

<h2>Serial adapters and converters</h2>
<p>
USB2Serial adpater cables, based on Prolific PL2303 chip<br>
Digi Etherlite ethernet to serial<br>
Equinox multi Serial PCI cards<br>
MOXA CP-168U V2<br>
Digi Portserver II (see <a href="#note5">Note 5</a>)<br>

<h2>Notes:</h2>
<p>

<a name="note1">1) Ericsson GM22</a><br>
<ul>You must cut pin 4 (wich is DTR) of the serial connector because the phone
disables AT command set if the pin is connected and active. The GM22 does
not support ascii mode. Mode=new and baudrate=9600 are the correct settings.
</ul>

<p>
<a name="note2">2) Ericsson R320s</a><br>
<ul>Replace <b>put_command("AT+CREG?\r"</b>...with <b>put_command("AT+CREG?\n"</b>... in modeminit.c. Set baudrate=115200
and mode=new. This phone was reported as unstable by one user.
</ul>

<p>
<a name="note3">3) Vodafone Mobile Connect Card</a><br>
<ul>Enter "memory_start=0" into the config file. If you removed the PIN protection from your SIM card, this modem says that the PIN is
locked, which is not true. Remove the pin=1234 line from the config file, then the program will ignore that instead of stopping with an error message. 
The GNU/Linux driver for 3G/UMTS version can be loaded with the command "modprobe usbserial vendor=0x0af0 product=0x5000". 
It's assumed that loading the driver works similar for the other versions of that card.
The device name is /dev/usb/ttyUSB0. 
</ul>

<p>
<a name="note4">4) Siemens MC60, M55</a><br>
<ul>Siemens MC60 and M55 are reported by the user to work with the following settings:<br>
<ul><b>
init = AT+CPMS="ME","ME","ME"<br>
init2 = AT+CNMI=1,1,0,2<br>
incoming = high<br>
report = yes<br>
baudrate = 115200<br>
send_delay = 20<br>
rtscts = no<br>
</b>
(a three pin cable was used)<br>
</ul>
</ul>

<p>
<a name="note5">5) Digi Portserver II</a><br>
<ul>After >= 3.1.5 use a modem setting <i>send_delay = 0</i> to get higher speed for sending.
</ul>

<p>
<a name="note6">6) SIMCOM SIM600</a><br>
<ul>After >= 3.1.5 use a modem setting <i>check_memory_method = 5</i>. See the <a href="configure.html">How to configure</a> for details.
</ul>
