9.2.3.6.2 SMS authorized phones
The user can specify the phone number authorized to send configuration SMS to the
Active Track device.
Note:
a) Authorization of the incoming configuration SMS consists of comparing the
number with that in the number field. It is possible to put only a fragment of a
number in the number field, e.g. 1234. Authorized then are all numbers
containing the sequence, e.g. 600123456 or 601234567.
b) If SMS is sent via the OSM.2007 server’s modem, its phone number (or at least
part of it – according to the previous remark) has to be entered into the
aforementioned field.
