Report Interval Time GPS Report Time Interval. See also *PPMINTIME, *PPTSV, +CTA.
n=seconds (1 - 65535)
Note: Your cellular carrier may impose a minimum transmit time.
Caution:
A report time of less than 30 seconds can possibly keep an RF link up continu-
ously. This will eventually cause the AirLink Device to overheat and shutdown. An RF
resource may continue be tied up to transfer small amounts of data. Generally the RF
channel will be released and go dormant in 10-20 seconds of no data sent or received.
Report Interval
Distance
GPS Report Distance Interval in 100 Meter Units (kilometer). 1 mile is approximately 1600
kilometers.
• n=0 : Disabled
• n=1-65535
Stationary Vehicle
Timer (Minutes)
Timer for Stationary Vehicles. Time interval in minutes that the AirLink Device device will
send in reports when it is stationary.
• n=0 : Disabled
• n=1-255 minutes
For example, if *PPTIME=10, the AirLink Device will send in reports at least every 10
seconds while it is moving; however, once it stops moving, it will slow the reports down to
this *PPTSV value.
Note: In order for the PPTSV (Stationary Vehicle timer) to take effect, the PPTIME value
must be set to a value greater than 0 and less than the PPTSV value. The PPTSV timer
checks for vehicle movement at the PPTIME interval, so if PPTIME is disabled, then
PPTSV will also be disabled.
GPS Report Type
(hex)
GPS report type.
• n=0 : Use legacy reports specified in *MF value. Note: Must also have *PPDEVID=0.
• n=0x11 : Standard GPS Report
• n=0x12 : Standard GPS Report + UTC Date
• n=0x13 : Standard GPS Report + UTC Date + RF data
• n=0xD0 : Xora reports.
• n=0xE0 : GGA and VTG NMEA reports
• n=0xE1 : GGA, VTG and RMC NMEA reports
• n=0xF0 : TAIP reports
• n=0xF1 : Compact TAIP data
SNF Enable Store and Forward will cause GPS reports to be stored up if the AirLink Device goes out of
network coverage. Once the vehicle is in coverage the GPS reports will be sent en masse
to the server.
• n=0 : Disabled
• n=1 : Enabled (default)
