Message Queue Type 1 - Direct Pager to TAP Gateway

 You would need to have access to a TAP gateway to be able to use message types 1 and 2, this is a specialised piece of equipment that accepts SMS and or pager messages for transmission by a carrier.
 
The Pager type uses a TAP gateway. I.e. it sends directly to a piece of equipment run by the phone company - It requires a connection to this gateway. NOT generally available to most installations.
 
 
This option utilises the [fromAddress], [toAddresses] and [messageText] fields to contain the mobile number to send to, and the Messagetext to send via pager.
 
The message queue service code performs the following actions:
 
  • Message character limit of 222 for pager
  • Message character limit of 159 for sms
  • MessageText (Message) - Truncate into separate messages if too long
  • Check for SMSType, SMSUsername, SMSPassword in message queue config file
  • If SMSType = http then send sms otherwise send pager
  • For pager GetTapSenderHost, GetTapSenderPort
  • toAddress (mobile number)
  • fromAddress (sent from number)
