SMS Service center numbers
To send and receive SMS text messages you need the telephone number of your
Network’s SMS Centre. These numbers have been pre-loaded into the phone. If you
accidentally delete the SEND or RECEIVE SMS Service Centre numbers you will need
to re-enter them in order for your SMS Service to work.
The Orbit can store 2 SMS Service center numbers, one incoming and one outgoing. This
sending SMS service number will be dialed out by the phone whenever you send out a SMS.
To set the SMS Center numbers
If there is an incoming call with a number matching with one of these SMS center
numbers, the phone knows it’s a call from the SMS center and will take the line
automatically to receive the messages.
