EMS/SMS MESSAGES
With the Gm882 you can send and
receive traditional SMS text messages
that are enriched with two functions – T9
and EMS – which make the editing of the
text easier and quicker and allow you to
insert pictures, animations and sounds in
your messages.
SMS parameters
Before you send your messages, you must set up some operation
parameters; most of them are provided by the network operator that issued the
SIM card.
Service Center (menu 2-1-4-1)
This is the phone number provided by the network operator (if you do not have
it, you can ask your operator for it) for sending messages to be sent to the
addressee.
Do not confuse this number with the phone number of the addressee of the
message.

Profile name (menu 2-1-4-2) allows you to assign a name to the whole set of
SMS parameters (“profile”). Create the profiles containing the parameters
settings you often need, and then active the one you need by choosing it in the
menu 2-1-4-4-7 (SMS-Parameters-Advanced-SMS Profile).
Validity (menu 2-1-4-3)
This network service allows you to set the length of time your SMS messages
are stored at the service center while attempts are made to deliver them.
Select and confirm the length of time you want by using the joystick.
Advanced (menu 2-1-4-4)
From this menu you can access the following functions:
Delivery report (menu 2-1-4-4-1)
Enable this function to have the delivery of your message confirmed. You will
receive an SMS with the heading and the number of the addressee’s mobile
phone, the date and the time the message you sent was received.
Destination (menu 2-1-4-4-2)
This function allows you to store the phone number of the addressee of new
messages and is very useful if you want to send EMS/SMS messages often to
the same addressee.
If you set a phone number, this will be set automatically as addressee when you
write a new message, as if you had written it manually; by pressing
you can
change the number and send the message to someone else.
