Set Access Point Name (APN), User Name, Password. The maximum length of the APN, User name and Password is 49 characters. TCP/UDP address and Port number of the remote server being set, UNIT will send report to these address. Note that only one TCP or UDP server will be used at the same time. To select enable or disable local GPRS/SMS or Roam GPRS/SMS Set the SMS Number of the user. The unit will send reports to the user if GPRS connection is failed.
3D GPS fix only: the report will be display “A” in the report and indicate that if the number of satellite is more than 4 or equal to 4. If the number of satellite is less than 4, then it will show “L” in GPS fix section. 2D and 3D GPS fix display: the report will be display “A” in the report and indicate that if the number of satellite is more than 4 or equal to 4. If the number of satellite is equal to 3, then the report will show “B” in GPS fix section.
in order to make the connection. If the report sending using GPRS connection fails, the report will be sent to the ‘primary’ SMS number first. The report will be resent, when the GPRS connection becomes available. 2. [Geofence:] Four Circular Geofence and one self-geofence: Circular Geofence must set origin and radius: Origin format :N2446.5321E12120.
N2446.5321 is latitude, E12120.4231 is longitude. Radius from 0.1 km to 1000km. User can set the reports send or local or ignore: Send: report will send out immediately if generation Local: report will save if generation, it will send out by local network Ignore: cancel reports. Five rectangular geofence: Set two points position, the point format is N2446.5321E12120.4231; With two points, generate one rectangle. Unit will detect whether in rectangle.
20 point Geo-fence areas can be set. When UNIT is out of these predefined zones, a report will be generated.
3. [Report:] Automatic report can be configured in this section. To activate the function(s), please select “√” in checkbox and fill in data in the textbox.
Parameters: report time when moving, report time when stop, threshold speed, send stop report after a preset value and to choose the reports send or ignore. Report when speed less than a preset value (refer the following 1.5 Km/Hr), and it will send stop report after the preset time (refer the following 120Sec). (min. speed is 0.1 km/Hr, max. speed is 1000 km/Hr).
