Overview

The GetTap interface is used to accept incoming messages via the TAP protocol. The GetTap interface accepts these message over a serial connection that is usually connected to a modem. The TAP protocol is the most widely used text messaging protocol for serial and dialup connections. The GetTap interface enables PageGate to accept in text messages from many sources, and then re-dispatch the messages back out (possible to different recipients or groups). Also, PageGate can act as a messaging gateway for TAP clients (such as NotePager32 and NotePager Pro), simplifying setup, logging, and providing a single connection for sending messages to a wide variety of carriers.
