Thank you.

I’ve attached Moto V3x over USB and provided example is working perfectly.
Router OS v6.40.1 on X86 platform (HP ThinClient) & moto V3x for SMS Notifications. For small LAN like mine (15 devices monitored, mostly ping-pong) couldn’t make better solution.

Thanks as well!
Note: I had to specify the channel as well.
Also added more users to notify.

Command:

# Message
:local notificationtext "Service [Probe.Name] on [Device.Name] is now [Service.Status]"
# USB modem details
:local usbport "usb1 channel=0"

# Specify numbers
# User1
:local phonenumber1 "0123456789"
# User2
:local phonenumber2 "0123456789"
# User3
:local phonenumber3 "0123456789"

# Log info for fault finding
:log info "$notificationtext"

# Send notifications
/tool sms send usb1 channel=0 phone-number="$phonenumber1" message="$notificationtext";
:delay 10;
/tool sms send usb1 channel=0 phone-number="$phonenumber2" message="$notificationtext";
:delay 10;
/tool sms send usb1 channel=0 phone-number="$phonenumber3" message="$notificationtext"
