12: Report Configuration
• Server 1 The Report tab that displays in ACEmanager, is applicable across all
Sierra Wireless AirLink Raven Line devices only.
The report server is the main server where the Events Reports will be
sent. It is the same as a RAP or “ATS” server. A primary server can
be configured without a failover or redundant server which would be
the same as a single server.
Since the Raven line devices have no GPS, it will not send RAP
messages, but it will be able to send Events Reporting messages to
that server in the same way a PinPoint or MP device would send RAP
messages to a RAP or “ATS” server.
Reports Server
Reports using the Events Protocol are sent to the Reports Server.
Unlike RAP messages of the past which were limited to PinPoint line
devices, the enhancements of Event Reporting allow the Raven
devices to send reports to a remote server as well. The Reports
Server would be running an application to parse the messages and
send responses to the Raven devices.
Note: Whereas the PinPoint and MP line can use up to 4 different servers for
GPS reports, the Raven line is limited to one.
