Hello,
Is there a way to send SMS messages without using Alarm Notification Pipelines?
I developed a system to do the shopfloor announcement with buttons, I was wondering if this button can be used to send SMS too.
Example: When the user clicks on the button to call "Technician" the system records the data in the database and makes the announcement saying the Line/Machine/Technician.
If this is possible what should be the script for that?
Thanks
If you're using the Twilio module, you want system.twilio.sendSms.
No, I'm using AIRLINK RV50x
You can send a text by way of system.net.sendEmail to a phone number ending @txt.att.net or @vtext.com (I am not sure if other carriers have an equivelant). It may not be exactly what you are looking for, but could be an alternative.

It's annoyingly dependent on which carrier the phone number is signed up with, but in most cases you can send a text message from the phone to a test email address (instead of a phone number) and the From:
on the email it generates will be the correct one for that phone/carrier.
Google Fi is +18005551212@msg.fi.google.com
for example...
