SMS messaging from a CJ2M-CPU31

Has anyone done SMS messaging from an Omron CJ2J-CPU31 PLC? If so could you help please. Omron here in Oz have not had any experience doing this and are unable to assist.

This isn't supported, you'll need to utilize a 3rd party service like textbelt.com and program the PLC to utilize their API. I don't have any examples for the CJs, just the NJ/NX PLCs. If you only need 1 or 2 different SMS messages there are some products that can send out SMS messages based on digital inputs(RT100 for example). Alternatively many cell modems support AT commands which are very easy to utilize with socket services and allow you to customize the recipients and message contents.
