Overview

The MercuryXMS MM1 SDK is a lightweight component to give you the flexibility of delivering MMS messages from any Windows based terminal. Simply attach a GPRS Modem or connect your GPRS Modem-enabled mobile phone to your PC and your applications can start delivering MMS messages quickly and easily.

Implemented as a lightweight COM component and .NET ready, the MercuryXMS MM1 SDK will allow you to mobile enable your applications quickly and easily. Build your own outlook plug-in to deliver MMS messages. Send pictures from your CRM applications or website.

Configuring the MercuryXMS MM1 SDK is as simple as configuring your mobile phone. Simply specify the GPRS Access Point Name (APN), MMSC and WAP Gateway and the component is ready to start delivering messages.

You can use a GPRS Modem connected via USB or serial port. You can even use a PCMCIA WiFi/GPRS combo card such as the Nokia D211. Alternatively you can use a mobile phone connected via infra-red, cable or BlueTooth. Many of the latest handsets on the market today can act as a GPRS modem to give your PC internet connectivity. This same GPRS modem capability acts as the conduit for the MercuryXMS MM1 SDK to deliver MMS messages.

The MercuryXMS MM1 SDK implements a complete WSP and WTP stack to a mobile phone style interface to the network. The MercuryXMS MM1 SDK bypasses problems that some customers have with MMS Notifications due to firewall issues of their local operators, but with the MercuryXMS MM1 SDK your applications can send messages as easily as a mobile phone.

Connection management is automatically handled by the MercuryXMS MM1 SDK - existing connections can be hooked into as well as new connections created. Multiple connections can also be created for enhanced throughput.

The MercuryXMS MM1 SDK is an add-on for the MercuryXMS MMS SDK to provide additional message delivery capabilities. The current version of the SDK only supports sending messages. A version that supports receiving messages is in development and will be available shortly.
