Provider Page

This page defines general options for connecting to your carrier.

adTempus has a list of settings for some carriers and gateways. Try the Import Settings button and see if you carrier is listed. If not, see the Overview topic for information on how to find the settings you need.

Provider Name

Provide a descriptive name for the carrier or gateway service.

Protocol

Select the network protocol used by the carrier's SMS server.

User ID

Specify the user ID/caller ID used when connecting to the SMS server.

Password

Specify the password used when connecting to the SMS server (available for SMPP servers only).

Server

Specify the name or address and port number for the SMS server.

Maximum Message Length

Most SMS providers specify a limit for the length of messages. Messages that exceed the limit may be rejected. Specify the maximum here, and adTempus will truncate messages that exceed the length.

Automatically split messages that exceed the maximum

When this option is checked, adTempus will split notification messages that exceed the maximum length into separate messages, each shorter than the limit. This allows adTempus to deliver the complete notification message to your SMS device, as a series of messages.

You can set an absolute maximum length for messages by using the limit on the Notification Address.
