Description of Different Types of MSF Messages
It is possible to send MSF messages from handset to handset, from handset to
server and from server to handset. Each text message can consist of up to 72
characters. A handset can receive a text message whether it is on or off hook.
Reception of a text message is signalled by a beep tone.
With messaging it is possible to send two different types of mesages:
On Way Text
A message which does not require an answer from the recipient. Examples
of One Way Texts include reminders, updates and basic notifications such
as “Remember the meeting at 3 PM”.
One Way Text is also called Fire and Forget.
Confirmation of messages having been sent and received is available in
the system as an acknowledgement of each message having reached the
handset display.
