TRAX SMS Text Messaging is used for sending instant notification messages from the TRAX Application/Interface Services to mobile/cell phones around the world through an intermediate SMS Text Messaging Service provider:

http://www.csoft.co.uk

Before using TRAX SMS Text Messaging, accounts with the SMS Text Messaging Service provider http://www.csoft.co.uk must be created.

The above account information needs to be uploaded to the TRAX Application. This can be done through TRAX/Settings/Company Profile/SMS Text Message Configuration:

From the Company Profile window, select the SMS Text Messages button:

The account information is a text file that looks as follows:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?>

<AccountInfo>

<restUrl>http://weblogs.trax.aero:9000/WebModuleTraxInterface/rest</restUrl>

<url>http://www.csoft.co.uk/sendsms</url>

</AccountInfo>

restUrl/url/Username/PIN/ResponseFormat/DeliverServiceOption fields are compulsory.

restUrl is the TRAX Interface "rest" Service.

The restUrl looks as follows:

http://(your TRAX Interface Server IP address)//WebModuleTraxInterface/rest

Note: This is where a default SendTo number is set up. This allows the system to send SMS message to a test number if a phone number has been turned down. This is for testing purposes only. Currently phone numbers from 4477009 00000 to 4477009 99999 are allowed for use.

The user can change the account information in TRAX by exporting it to a text file, modify it, and re-upload it back to TRAX.
