Description
modemtype
string
Modems from different
manufacturers have slightly
different behaviour. We need to
know what type of modem is
used. Use "auto" or omit
parameter to have kannel detect
the modem type automatically.
(some types should not be
autodetected like the Nokia
Premicell).
device (m)
device-name
The device the modem is
connected to, like
/dev/ttyS0
.
speed
serial speed in bps
The speed in bits per second.
Default value 0 means to try to
use speed from modem
definition, or if it fails, try to
autodetect.
pin
string
This is the PIN number of the
SIM card in the GSM modem.
You can specify this option if
your SIM has never been used
before and needs to have the PIN
number entered. The PIN is
usually a four digit number.
