New message
The New message page can be used to send SMS text messages to a single or multiple recipients.
A new SMS message can be sent to a maximum of 9 recipients at the same time. After sending the message, the result is displayed
next to the destination number as “
Success
” or “
Failure
” if the message failed to send. By default, only one destination number field
is displayed. Additional destination numbers may be added one at a time after entering a valid number for the current destination
number field. To add a destination number, click the
button and to remove the last destination in the list, click the
button.
Figure 102 - SMS - New Message
When sending SMS messages internationally, destination numbers may begin with the “+” symbol followed by the international
direct dial prefix and then the country calling code or you may choose to omit the “+” symbol.
For example:
To send a message to the mobile destination number 0412345678 in Australia (country calling code 61) from the United
States, enter “+01161412345678” or “01161412345678”.
After entering the required recipient numbers, type your SMS message in the New message field. As you type your message, a
counter shows how many characters you have entered. For ASCII 7-Bit encoding, the maximum number of characters is 160 per
message while UCS2 encoding allows 50 characters per message. If your message exceeds these numbers, it will be split into
multiple messages as required. When you have finished typing your message and you are ready to send it, click the Send button.
