Question

Hello,

I have the following setup with 2 Teltonika products: 

• RUT240 mounted in location with cellular reception
• 70m network cable
• RUTX10 connected to RUT240 via 70m network cable (LAN), mounted in a location with no cellular reception

I want to get the following functionality:

• I send a SMS to the RUT240
• RUT240 sets a command to switch RUTX10 Digital Output (Open collector output)

I have seen, that I can control RUTX10 Digital Output via http post/get requests, like

http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/io_state?username=user1&password=user1&pin=dout1&state=on

But how can I configure RUT240 to send a http post/get request like that?

There is the SMS Forwarding To HTTP feature on RUT240, but I think, it is not usable for that, because:

• I don't want, that every SMS is forwarded to the RUTX10
• I don't want to forward the SMS senders phone number to RUTX10
• I don't know how to create that http request (http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/io_state?username=user1&password=user1&pin=dout1&state=on) in exact that way.

So my question is - is it possible to do a configuration like that?

best regards

Michael

Hi,

If you are using the latest version of the RUT240 firmware (RUT2_R_00.07.01), then it contains the functions you need. The instructions for updating the firmware can be found at the link https://wiki.teltonika-networks.com/view/RUT240_Firmware_Downloads

You can read more here https://wiki.teltonika-networks.com/view/RUT240_Mobile_Utilities#SMS_Forwarding

You can also configure sending a POST request by SMS command.
