# SMS Notification (UK Only) - Description

NuPoint Unified Messaging can also use Short Message Service (SMS) Notification to send text messages to mobile phones using the RS-232 interface. The NuPoint Unified Messaging system sends call information via the RS-232 interface to a PC running the SMS Notification application. This application sends an SMS notification to a GSM device (Global System for Mobile Communications), which calls the mobile phone and transmits a text message.

Note: SMS Notification is available in the UK only. Beginning with NuPoint UM Release 4.1 and later, SMS programming must be done using the Web Console.
