13.4 AT+CSCA Service Centre Address

Common for both PDU and Text Mode s

Updates the SMSC address, through which mobile originated SMs are

transmitted. In text mode, the setting is used by send (+CMGS) and

write (+CMGW) commands. In PDU mode, the setting is used by the

same commands, but only when the length of the SMSC address coded

into <pdu> parameter equals zero. Note that a “+” in front of the number

in <sca> has precedence over the <tosca> parameter, so that a number

starting with “+” will always be treated as an international number.
