Summary
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a space-based radionavigation system. This page is an overview of the GPS service in RUTX11 devices.
General
The General is used to enable the GPS service and the support for different types satellites. Once you turn on GPS, you can check the Map page in order to see if the device has obtained a GPS fix. It is very important to attach the GPS antenna on the device and place it outside (not inside of a building). The device will not be likely to obtain a GPS fix otherwise.
The figure below is an example of the General page and the table below provides information on the fields contained in that page:
Field | Value | Description |
---|---|---|
Enabled | off | on; default: off | Turns the GPS service on or off. |
DPO enabled | off | on; default: off | Enable dynamic power optimization (requires modem reboot). This function is not supported on devices with Meig modems or Quectel BG95 modem |
Galileo NMEA support* | off | on; default: off | Turns support for Galileo satellites on or off. |
Glonass NMEA support* | off | on; default: off | Turns support for Glonass satellites on or off. |
BeiDou NMEA support* | off | on; default: off | Turns support for BeiDou satellites on or off. |
*Changing these options requires a modem reboot. Therefore, if you make changes to these options and save them, the device will lose cellular connectivity for about 30 seconds.
Map
The Map page displays the device's current coordinates and position on the map. To see the device's location on the map, make sure to attach the GPS antenna on the device and enable GPS in the General page.
The figure below is an example of the Map page:
NMEA
The NMEA page is used to configure settings related to NMEA sentence collecting and forwarding.
NMEA forwarding
The NMEA forwarding section is used to configure and enable NMEA forwarding. The figure below is an example of the NMEA forwarding section and the table below provides information on the fields contained in that section:
Field | Value | Description |

Field | Value | Description |
---|---|---|
Enabled | off | on; default: off | Turns data sending to AVL server on or off. |

Main rule
The Main rule section defines how and when GPS data will be collected and sent to a specified AVL server. Refer to the figure and table below for information on the configuration fields of Main Rule.
Field | Value | Description |
---|---|---|
Enable | off | on; default: on | Turns the main rule on or off. |
Rule priority | Low priority level | High priority level | Panic priority level | Security priority level; default: Low priority level | The rule's priority. Different priority settings add different flags to event packets, so they can be displayed differently in the receiving system. The device sends data of higher priority first. Priority levels from highest to lowest are as follows:
|
Collect period | integer [1..999999]; default: 5 | How often (in seconds) data will be collected. |
Min distance | integer [1..999999]; default: 50 | Minimum distance change (in meters) before sending records. |

Min accuracy | integer [1..999999]; default: 10 | Minimum accuracy (in meters) required before saving record. The lower the accuracy value, the better. |
Min saved records | integer [1..32]; default: 20 | Minimum amount of gathered records before sending. |
Send period | integer [0..999999]; default: 60 | How often (in seconds) gathered data is sent. |
Secondary rules
The Secondary rules section provides you with the possibility to create additional data sending rules. The difference from the main rule is that the secondary rules only send data when the device uses a specified type of WAN and when the digital isolated output is in the specified state.
Refer to the figure and table below for information on the configuration fields of the Secondary rules section.
Field | Value | Description |
---|---|---|
Enable | off | on; default: off | Turns the secondary rule on or off. |
WAN | Mobile Both | Mobile Home | Mobile Roaming | Wired; default: Mobile Home | Selects which type of WAN will trigger the rule. |
Ignore | off | on; default: off | If enabled, the rule ignores state of input. |
IO level | Low level | High level | Both; default: High level | Selects which input state will trigger the rule. |
IO type | GPIO; default: GPIO | Selects input type. |
IO name | Input (4); default: Input (3) | Selects which specific input will trigger the rule. |
Rule priority | Low priority level | High priority level | Panic priority level | Security priority level; default: High priority level | The rule's priority. Different priority settings add different flags to event packets, so they can be displayed differently in the receiving system. The device sends data of higher priority first. Priority levels from highest to lowest are as follows:
|
Collect period | integer [1..999999]; default: 10 | How often (in seconds) data will be collected. |
Min distance | integer [1..999999]; default: 25 | Minimum distance change (in meters) before sending records. |
Min angle | integer [1..360]; default: 25 | Minimum angle change (in degrees) before sending records. |
Min accuracy | integer [1..999999]; default: 10 | Minimum accuracy (in meters) required before saving record. The lower the accuracy value, the better. |
Min saved records | integer [1..32]; default: 10 | Minimum amount of gathered records before sending. |
Send period | integer [0..999999]; default: 10 | How often (in seconds) gathered data is sent. |
TAVL settings
The TAVL settings section is used to select which data will be sent to the TAVL server:
Field | Value | Description |
---|---|---|
Signal | off | on; default: off | Includes GSM signal strength information in the GPS data sent to server. |
Din1 | off | on; default: off | Includes Din1 status information in the GPS data sent to server. |
AVL I/O
The AVL I/O tab provides you with the possibility to configure input rules.
Input Rules
The Input Rules section displays existing input rules. To create a new input rule click the 'Add' button.
After this you should be redirected to configuration page of the newly added rule, which should look similar to this:
Field | Value | Description |
---|---|---|
Enable | off | on; default: on | Turns the input rule on or off. |
Input type | Input (3); default: Input (3) | Select type on your own intended configuration. |
Trigger | Input active | Input low | Both; default: Input active | Select trigger event for your own intended configuration. |
Priority | Low | High | Panic | Security; default: Low | The rule's priority. Different priority settings add different flags to event packets, so they can be displayed differently in the receiving system. The device sends data of higher priority first. |
GPS Geofencing
A geofence is a virtually defined boundary for a real-world geographic area. The GPS Geofencing page provides you with the possibility to set this custom area and apply rules that will inform you when the device leaves or enters the geofence.
To create a new geofence area, enter a custom name for it and click the 'Add' button. A new geofence area configuration with the given name should appear in the "Geofencing" list. Click the button that looks like a pencil next to it to begin editing.
The figure below is an example of GPS Geofencing configuration and the table below provides information related to that configuration:
Field | Value | Description |
---|---|---|
Enable | off | on; default: off | Turns the Geofence rule on or off. |
Longitude (X) | degrees [-180.000000..180.000000]; default: 0.000000 | East-west position of a point on the Earth's surface. Combining this and the Latitude information will produce a point on the world map that will serve as the center of the geofence area. |
Latitude (Y) | degrees [-90.000000..90.000000]; default: 0.000000 | North-south position of a point on the Earth's surface. Combining this and the Longitude information will produce a point on the world map that will serve as the center of the geofence area. |
Radius | integer [1..999999]; default: 200 | Radius (in meters) of the geofence area. |
Generate event on | Exit | Enter | Enter/exit; default: Exit | Specifies whether the rule should be triggered when the device enters the geofence area, leaves it or on both events. |
Switch profile | configuration profiles; default: none | Selects a profile to switch to on this geofencing event. |
Get current coordinates | - (interactive button) | Obtains the device's current coordinates and places them in the Longitude and Latitude fields. |
