+CMGF, Message Format
This command is a basic command. The Set command handles the selection of the message
format used with send, list, read and write commands, as well as the format of unsolicited result
codes resulting from message receipts. The G24 supports both PDU mode (where entire TP data
units are used) and text mode (where the body of the message and its headers are given as
separate parameters).
The following table shows the +CMGF parameters.
Example
AT+CM GF= 1
OK
AT+CM GF?
+CMGF: 1
OK
AT+CM GF= ?
+CMGF: (0,1)
OK
+CSCA, Service Center Address
This command handles the selection of the SCA and the TOSCA. The SCA is the phone number
of the SC (Service Center). The TOSCA can be 129 (local) or 145 (international), where 129 is
the default value. The TOSCA parameter of the Set command is optional, and can be omitted. If
the SCA parameter of the Set command is prefixed by the "+" character, it indicates that TOSCA
is 145.
