Any help will be greatly appreciated
You might get a quicker response asking on a
non-automationdirectbrand-agnostic forum - such as https://www.plctalk.net/Look up E-mail to SMS gateway. There are several of them out there.
You send an E-mail from either the HMI or the PLC and the gateway will forward it to the phone.
I use sms.to to send alarm texts directly from the SCADA system. Set it up with a simple HTTP request from FactoryTalk using their API, no extra modules needed. It works reliably over Ethernet with CompactLogix. I just configure a message, trigger it with an event, and sms.to handles the delivery to mobile numbers.
