# Application settings… - SMS Service Setup

The Boomerang system uses SMS’es to send different types of messages, like warnings or alarms to system users. The SMS Service is an SMS gateway.

The SMS Service option requires a license from ICU.

The ‘SMS Service Setup’ form is filled in by ICU personnel.

The Boomerang system may also use a local GSM modem for sending SMSes. The SMS Service however may provide additional functionality like voice SMS.

At present the Boomerang system offers support for the following SMS Services:
