Data Coding Scheme
The data coding scheme of the short message. This value depends on the language and the settings that the service provider requires. To send normal English messages, the default value is 0. To send SMS in other languages like Italian, Russian, and Chinese, change this value to 8 (equivalent of "0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 UCS2 (ISO/IEC-10646) according to the SMPP specifications for a particular service provider. Modify this value based on the test results with the service provider. Modifying the value from 0 reduces the number of characters for each SMS as more number of bits are required to represent each character in different languages.
