The Short Message Service (SMS) is used for sending short messages to mobile phones about alarm events registered in Intellect. A short message is sent automatically upon registration of any events specified in the corresponding macro.

Actions on Intellect objects can be performed when a short message is received. Macros, programs in the language embedded in Intellect or Jscript scripts are used for this. When a short message is received, the SMS object sends the RECEIVE event to Intellect (see SMS).

Short messages are sent using the services of the GSM mobile providers. To send the short messages, the dedicated devices are used: GSM modems, GSM adapters and mobile phones or devices with Android operating system. Short messages are sent to mobile phones by mobile service providers.

When using a device with Android operating system, incoming messages with Russian characters are transliterated in Intellect.


When using SMS in Intellect, note the following: mobile service providers usually charge for sending SMS messages.

To be able to send the SMS messages, a GSM modem, a GSM adapter or a mobile phone or a device with Android operating system supporting ETSI GSM 07.07 or ETSI GSM 07.05 should be installed on the computer (see Android-based Axxon SMS-sender Mobile Application. User Guide).

The following modem models are currently integrated into Intellect:

  1. 3G-modem Huawei E160. In Windows OS, it is identified as HUAWEI Mobile Connect-3G Modem. Modem control program is required to be run to work with this device.
  2. 3G-modem ZTE MF626. In Windows OS, it is identified as ZTE Proprietary HS-USB Modem.To use this device it is necessary to install the software. The software installation will run automatically after the modem is connected.
  3. 3G-modem Huawei E173. The RECEIVE event is supported if using the ProcessFromSim registry key (see Registry keys reference guide).

Many mobile operators protect their USB-modems from use in other operators' networks. When you use the modem protected by the operator, run the utility included in the modem bundle simultaneously with Intellect to activate the SMS. You do not need to perform any other actions with the utility (connect to 3G, etc.).


When using a modem control application, it takes 10 seconds to deliver a message.

The procedure for creating and sending a short message:

  1. Create and set up the Short Message Service object.
  2. Create and set up the Short Message object.
  3. Create a macro for sending the short message.
