Using SMS (Short Message Service)
Psion Mobile Devices Developers Guide

19.11 Using SMS (Short Message Service)
SMS (Short Message Service) is available on GSM networks. It allows text messages of up to 160 characters
to be sent and received through the network operator’s SMS gateway. If the receiver is powered off or out
of range, messages are stored in the network and delivered at the first opportunity.
On Psion systems, SMS messages are stored on a SIM card, or in the WWAN modem. At startup, initializa-
tion of the SIM card takes more time than initialization of the modem.
When callbacks are used to track initialization, typically the application is notified of the ready status of the
modem, and then some time later it is notified of the ready status of the SIM card. Only then are the SMS
functions available. Some modems do not support SMS; in these cases the SMS ready status never occurs.
Incoming SMS messages are stored on one or several mailboxes. The mailbox is a logical entity. The mail-
boxes are numbered sequentially—the mailbox index—starting from 0 (zero) for the first mailbox. Within
each mailbox the messages are numbered sequentially—the message index.
Some mailboxes are writable, this means that sent messages can be stored in the mailbox.
When SMS functions are called, an SMS location structure is passed in as a parameter. The SMS location
structure holds the mailbox index and the message index within the mailbox.
If a callback is registered for incoming SMS messages, a location structure is returned by the callback that
specifies the mailbox index and the message index. This location structure can be passed to subsequent
SMS calls that process the incoming SMS message. It is recommended that applications query the location
of each message, and not make assumptions about where the modem put the message.
Most modems have only one mailbox that is stored on the SIM card. A few modems have a second mailbox
that is stored in the modem itself. The Mobile Devices SDK provides information on the number and struc-
ture of the mailboxes. Normally, the modem automatically selects the mailbox for an incoming message.
When one mailbox is full, the modem starts filling the next one. To make mailboxes portable between
hand-held computers, an application can force a mailbox to be on the SIM card.
19.11.1 SMS API Elements
C++: SMS on Windows CE-based computers is controlled using the PsionTeklogix::WWAN namespace.
Java: Not available.
.NET: SMS on Windows CE-based computers is controlled using the PsionTeklogix.WWAN namespace.
19.12 WWAN Supplementary Services
Some WWAN networks support supplementary services. These services can complement both voice calls
and data services. Setting and querying each supplementary service takes between 30 and 60 seconds, as
the computer must contact the WWAN network and wait for a reply. The Mobile Devices SDK provides
access to the following supplementary services, if they are supported by your WWAN network:
Incall Supplementary Services
Call Hold
This service enables the subscriber to interrupt an ongoing call and then subsequently re-establish the call.
The call hold service is only applicable to normal telephony.
Call Waiting
This service allows the mobile subscriber to be notified of an incoming call during a call. The subscriber can
answer, reject, or ignore the incoming call. Call waiting is applicable to all GSM telecommunications services
using a circuit-switched connection.
Multiparty Service (Conference Calls)
The multiparty service enables a mobile subscriber to establish a multiparty conversation—that is, a simul-
taneous conversation between from three to six subscribers. This service is only applicable to
normal telephony.
