Send and receive SMS messages

A feature of the XBee Cellular device is the ability to send and receive Short Message Service (SMS) transmissions. This allows you to send and receive text messages to and from an SMS capable device such as a mobile phone.

For that purpose, these devices offer a special type of frame for sending and receiving text messages, specifying the destination phone number and data.

Note Only the Cellular protocol supports the transmission and reception of SMS. This means you cannot send or receive text messages using a generic XBeeDevice object; you must use the protocol-specific XBee device object CellularDevice.
