To use the SIM card that comes with the cellular modem kit,give the SIM card number to the provider. The required SIM card form factor is 3FF - Micro.6.5 Accessing the DXM Using SMSThe DXM with a cellular modem can be remotely accessed using SMS messages. Simple text messages can:• Force a push to the cloud• Reboot the controller• Read/write local registersThe incoming firewall provides security; only defined phone numbers are permitted to access the controller. Use the DXMConfiguration Software to configure the SMS commanding feature. This feature requires firmware version 2.01 or later.SMS command messages sent from approved phone numbers to the DXM cause the DXM to respond. See the examplesbelow for SMS responses. Responses may take 20 seconds or more, depending upon the network.A DXM requires a few minutes after powering up before it can accept SMS messages. Initial cellular connection times varybased on the wireless network. A SMS message sent to the controller while a push session is active delays any response orthe SMS message may be dropped based on the length of the push session.Configuring the DXM for SMS Controlling— Configure the DXM for SMS messaging capability using the DXMConfiguration Software.1.

The processor reloads the XML configuration file and zeroes all local registerdata. This does not affect the other components of the DXM (ISM radio, I/O board, cellular modem). The DXMaccepts the message, executes the action, and sends an acknowledgment text message back to the user.Example: Texting reboot forces the processor to reboot.reboot DXM acknowledgment text message: rebooting…Get RegistergrN gets register number N (DXM Local Register) and sends a text with the value back to the user.
