SMS Command List

For MMS/SMTP commands to function, they must first be set to 'ON' mode.

• *500* Take picture: The SIM card will respond with "Capture" upon receiving this command. This command is compatible with both MMS and SMTP modes.
• *505* Take picture and send to sender's mobile: Upon receiving the *505* command, the SIM card will send "Start capturing..." and then transmit the picture to the specified Mobile ID and/or email. This works regardless of whether the camera is in MMS or SMTP mode. If the camera is configured for MMS mode only, images will be sent via MMS to the originating mobile number.
