    SMS HS Server - beta 0.0.1

    In short, this plug-in allows HomeSeer to fire triggers based on received SMS or received calls, and trigger actions that sends out SMS. In addition SMS HS server can receive messages from other network hosts through supplied client applications. Current client applications are, GUI, GUI with configuration management, command line and “SMS HS Client” HomeSeer plug-in.


    “SMS HS Server” plug-in
    - Supports multiple clients over Ethernet, HomeSeer, GUI applications, command line application, configuration manager
    - Implements triggers “Receive SMS” and “Receive Call”
    - Access control for both messaging and configuration clients
    - Supports both TEXT and PDU SMS message format
    - Supports 7 and 16 bit (UCS2) message encoding
    - Configuration from HomeSeer configuration pages

    “SMS HS Client” plug-in
    - Implements one action “Send SMS”
    - Supports multiple servers for failover redundancy
    - Configuration from HomeSeer configuration pages







    Getting started
    - Connect an ETSI 07.05 complient modem,e.g a GSM phone, and install the required drivers.
    - Run the attached plug-in installer. It contains both the server and the client plug-in.
    - In the HS web gui -> Setup -> Interfaces, select the serial port supplied by the connected modem
    - Activate the plug-ins.
    - Verify configuration for both plug-ins, and make necessary adjustments.
    - Enable debug in case you need to troubleshoot.

    I will post the user guide once it is close to finished.

    Please note:
    - 7bit encoding have a limited subset of the alphabet, but allows 160 characters per message.
    - Localhost have always full access to the server plug-in, even if the access lists are empty.
    - Symbian based GSM phones (that I know of) does not support “New Message Indication”, that notifies about mobile terminated messages.
    - When running client applications, the interface, ISmsRemoting.dll, needs to be in the same directory as the client.

    Thanks for this great plugin.
    First question is what should I do with the files in the HomeSeerSmsClients_0_0_1 map?
    Now I only run the MSI installer.
    I have installed it and SMS send with my Nokia 6230i is working fine.
    Only when I receive a SMS it gives a error and the log show this:

    13.11.2009 10:32:54.124: ERROR: Server: SmsComLib: decodePdu: System.FormatException: Kan geen herkenbare cijfers vinden.
    bij System.ParseNumbers.StringToInt(String s, Int32 radix, Int32 flags, Int32* currPos)
    bij System.Convert.ToByte(String value, Int32 fromBase)
    bij SMSPDULib.SMSBase.PopByte(String& source)
    bij SMSPDULib.SMSBase.PopServiceCenterAddress(String& source)
    bij SMSPDULib.SMSBase.Fetch(SMSBase sms, String& source)
    bij SMSPDULib.SMS.Fetch(SMS sms, String& source)
    bij SmsComLib.SmsCom.decodePdu(String pdu)
    13.11.2009 10:32:54.139: ERROR: Server: SmsComLib: Failed to decode the message pdu


    The configuration I have set on Text and not on PDU.
    Is there also a possibility to set some virtual devices where I can see the incoming SMS messages?

      antoon,
      please activate the debug option for the plug-in in the web configuration page, and then receive another SMS, and send me the debug log.

      Currently you can only see incoming SMS in the log file, but that might change :-)

            antoon,
            i have added an update to the initial post, hspi_smsHsServer.zip. Please extract the file inside, and replace the hspi_smsHsServer.dll file in your HS install directory. Note that you have to shut down HS prior to the update.

            None of my test phones support inbound clear text messages, so i haven't had a chance to verify the fix.

                I got the same error with the new update.
                But then I put the configuration on PDU mode and everything is working now

                  Hi antoon,
                  i found a phone that i could test with, and noticed that the last fix did not do it. This issue is now resolved, and it is working with my setup.

                  I have uploaded a new version where you can receive SMS in TEXT mode as well.

                    OK, tested the last build and indeed the text mode is working now also.
                    Thanks.

                      Is it possible with the plugin to send the status or value from a Homeseer device thru SMS?

                        I'm not sure. I will look into it. I'm also looking at having a device where you can see incoming messages.

                          That would be a great option.
                          Thanks,

                              If it supports ETSI 07.05, it should work. I have not tested with the modems you have, so i don't know if it works.

                              Go ahead and test, and let us know the result :-)
