Scenario details:
- We have a PLC with Modbus protocol and address 1
- It is necessary to read different Modbus registers via SMS. Register 10 (current temperature), register 12 (pressure) and register 14 (current humidity)
- It is also necessary to be able to write “1” via SMS in Modus16 register. This way the PLC will activate a relay during a pre-configured time period
- SMS should be send only from the authorized mobile phones: 666123456 and 666123457
- SMS commands sent should be simple with the following texts: TEMP, PRES, HUM (to read registers 10,12 and 14 respectively). An SMS with the text RELE will write “1” in register 16 to activate the relay
- It also should be possible to carry out configuration changes remotely via TELNET
Solution: MTX-Tunnel firmware + MTX-Java-IoT/MTX-Java-T/MTX-Java-T2
EXAMPLE of settings (file config.txt) for such scenario:

Details:
- When the value “result” is set in the parameter SMS_aliasResponse, the response SMS to ALIAS will not contain executed AT command
- For example, if SMS_aliasResponse parameter has the value “full”, the following will occur:
- SMS sent: TEMP
- SMS received: AT^MTXTUNNEL=GETMODBUS,1;10;1;3
- 25
- OK
- If SMS_aliasResponse parameter has the value “result”, the following will occur:
- SMS sent: TEMP
- SMS received: TEMP > 25
- If SMS_aliasError parameter configuration contains the text “Error”, the response SMS to ALIAS, in case of error, will have the following response:
- SMS sent: TEMP
- SMS received: TEMP > Error
- Remember that the modem model used in this example disposes of 2 serial ports. In the given example the main port (RS232) and the secondary port (RS232 or RS485) are used. To configure the secondary port as RS485 you should set “ON” in microswitch 2, as it is explained in Annex A of the this manual
