Thank you, yeah i initially used that to set it up, but it wasn't entirely accurate. Maybe a regional thing, but we are up and running now. Happy to share my integration set-up if anyone needs it.
For reference, these were the updates we made:
1. Removed the check mark for Authorize character transliteration
2. Changed the value for Sending window, Time before reconnection, Bind timeout, Max MT throughput
3. Removed mapping of encodings
4. Changed Extraction regex of the status in the SR value, ID format in MT ack, ID format in the SR
5. Automatic reply with no spaces
