U WARNING: Changing any of these values to invalid values will break the cellular endpoint's
communication with the HES and there's currently no other way fix it over the air. The meter
will need to be configured in diag. mode.
Values that will cause communication to break are designated in Bold Italic.
A network program allows the user to modify the following parameters:
Program Information
•Name. Name of the program.
•Notes. Any notes you would like to add.
Command Center Listener
• Primary IP Address. This is the Head End System's IP address. For Command Center, this
should be the M2M Adapter's IP address. Changing this IP address will cause the endpoints
to send all traffic to the new address. There's currently no way to fix the endpoints without
putting them in diag. mode.
• Secondary IP Address. This is a secondary HES IP address. This is currently not being
used by firmware.
• Port. This is the udp port used by the cellular endpoints to send outbound packets. The M2M
adapter listens on this port (default 8083).
Firmware Download
• Server Port. The udp port used by the cellular endpoints to send firmware download
packets. The M2M Adapter listens on this port.
• Client Server Port. The udp port the cellular endpoints use to receive firmware download
packets. The M2M Adapter sends on this port.
Heart Beat
• Server Port. The udp port used by the endpoints to send heart beat packets. The M2M
Adapter listens on this port.
• Client Server Port. The udp port used by the cellular endpoints to receive heart beat packets.
The M2M Adapter sends on this port.
• Interval Rate. The heart beat rate expressed in seconds (default is 300 seconds).
•Retry Rate. The heart beat failover threshold (default is 3 times).
NTP Server
• Primary IP Address. The IP address of the NTP server used by the cellular endpoints to get
time.
• Secondary IP Address. Secondary NTP server. This is currently not being used by the
firmware.
Other
• Cellular Modem random wait before start (min). Random wait in minutes before cell
modem is started up. This means the modem will wait a random number of minutes between
0 and this number (default 30 minutes).
