SMS Command format

PW [Password] [Prefix][Command or Command parameter1]
[Command parameter2 (if applicable)] [Command parameter n]
Note: There is no space between the prefix and the command (or the 1st
command parameter in the case of multi-parameter commands). There must
be a single space between all other fields to act as a delimiter.
The default password is the last 4 digits of the SIM ID number (for
SIM-based devices) and the last 4 digits of the ESN (for non-SIM
devices). If you do not know the SIM ID or ESN number, you can find
it in ACEmanager on the Status > WAN/Cellular page.
The default prefix is "&&&".
Whether or not a password and prefix are required varies depending
on the SMS mode selected in ACEmanager.
