Welcome to the tutorial on how to add an SNPP
carrier in NotePager Pro.
The first step is to run the program, so find
the icon on your desktop and double click on it.
When the program comes up, if you're using the
trial version, you'll see this prompt.
If you would like to purchase the program, left
click on Register, then left click on the Secure
Online Ordering button.
If you have already purchased, please click on
the Enter Registration Information and watch our
NotePager Pro registration tutorial.
If you would like to continue to use the trial
version, left click on the Continue button.
Once in the program, left click on the Carriers
menu, then left click on Add.
In the Carrier field, enter the name of the carrier
you're going to be sending the messages to. Examples
of carriers are PagePlus, American Messaging,
Sprint, and AT&T.
Once you've entered the carrier's name, left
click the dropdown arrow next to the Protocol,
then select SNPP from the list.
When you do, the program will ask for a host
The host is the specific address that a carrier
has configured for SNPP traffic. For a list of
SNPP hosts, please visit our website, www.notepage.net
Once at our website, left click on the support
section on the left hand side.
In the support section, you should see the SNPP
settings section. Left click on that link.
You should then be taken to a list of all SNPP
hosts we currently know about.
Find your carrier's host in the list, then go
back to NotePager Pro.
In the host field, type the host for your carrier.
You'll also notice that there are several other
fields, including password, port, Max Characters,
and Message Limit.
Some carriers require passwords to use their
SNPP hosts, some don't. If your carrier does,
enter the password here.
The port should always be 444
The max characters field indicates the maximum
number of characters that this carrier will accept
in one message. Typically, for cell phones the
max characters should be set to 160. For pagers,
it should be set to 240.
Some carriers have a message limit, others don't.
If your carrier has a message limit, enter it
here.
After entering in your information, left click
on Apply to add the carrier into the list and
you'll receive this prompt notifying you that
the carrier record has been added. Left click
on okay.
