If you know a little bit of SSH you can do it with script.

There is an executable called smssend. You can use it like this:
Usage: sendsms <dest> <message>

If you did not understand a word I was saying, tell me what you want this application to do. We will try to develop script together. (:

What F/W are you using?

If you are using any of the MAXX firmwares then do following:

1. Go to Main Menu -> Office Tools -> Tools -> Crond -> Start. A message should pop up saying that Crond is On.
2. Then connect your mobile to PC and telnet to it. (If you don't know how to do it, read a tutorial or manual. There are plenty of them floating around)
3. Type the following:
Quote
cd /ezxlocal/cron.d
4. Now you are in this direcotry. Type this:
Quote
touch root
5. You have just created new file with the name root. Edit that file with nano:
Quote
nano root
6. This file is empty. You need to add only one line which looks like this:
Quote
1,30 * * * * sendsms 123456789 "This is the message"
I can explain few things here. The first two numbers separated by comma is the minutes of an hour when the message will be sent. When you set it to 1,30 the message will be send every hour on the first and 30th minute. The 123456789 is the number where you want to send the message. After that follows the message text.
7. Press CTRL + C. When prompted for confirmation, press Y and ENTER.
8. Thats it. If you ever want to stop sending these messages, do the same as in step 1, but select Stop.

P.S. In my firmware the Start and Stop buttons in Crond directory are reversed. You need to look what the pop up sayes after pressing the button.

P.S2 You do not need to use MAXX F/W for this. You only need a F/W with crond installed and a menu to start and stop crond. If you don't have it, flash to any MAXX or install crond manually.
