Summary

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a space-based radionavigation system. This page is an overview of the GPS service in {{{name}}} routers.

The information in this page is updated in accordance with the [[Media:{{{fw_version}}}_WEBUI.bin|{{{fw_version}}}]] firmware version.

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 router and enable GPS in the [[{{{name}}}_GPS#General|General]] page.

The figure below is an example of the Map page:

[[File:{{{file_map}}}]]

General

The General section is used to enable the GPS service and the support for different types satellites. Once you turn on GPS, you can check the [[{{{name}}}_GPS#Map|Map]] page in order to see if the router has obtained a GPS fix. It is very important to attach the GPS antenna on the router and place it outside (not inside of a building). The router 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:

[[File:{{{file_general}}}]]

Field Value Description
Enabled yes | no; default: no Turns the GPS service on or off.
Galileo NMEA support* yes | no; default: no Turns support for Galileo satellites on or off.
Glonass NMEA support* yes | no; default: no Turns support for Glonass satellites on or off.
BeiDou NMEA support* yes | no; default: no 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 router will lose cellular connectivity for about 30 seconds.

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:

Contain Connection yes | no; default: no Contain active session with a remote server

NMEA forwarding cache


The router caches NMEA forwarding information if NMEA forwarding is enabled. This section is used to select the memory type where the cache will be stored and the maximum amount of data that will be saved:

[[File:{{{file_nmea_cache}}}]]

Field Value Description
Type ram | flash; default: ram Selects which type of memory will be used for storing NMEA forwarding cache.
Maximum sentences integer; default: 5000 Maximum amount of NMEA sentences that will be saved in the cache before older entries are deleted and replaced by new ones.
File filepath; default: none Location of the file where NMEA forwarding cache information will be stored. This field becomes visible only when the selected memory type is "flash".

The NMEA collecting section is used to enable NMEA sentence gathering and storing. The figure below is an example of the NMEA collecting section and the table below provides information on the fields contained in that section:

[[File:{{{file_nmea_collecting}}}]]

Field Value Description
Enabled yes | no; default: no Turns NMEA sentence collecting on or off.
Location filepath; default: none Location of the file where NMEA sentences will be stored. This field becomes visible only when NMEA collecting is enabled.

NMEA sentence settings


The NMEA sentence settings section provides the possibility to configure which NMEA sentences will be forwarded or collected and at what frequency. The figure below is an example of the NMEA sentence settings section and the table below provides information on the fields contained in that section:

[[File:{{{file_nmea_sentence}}}]]

AVL

The AVL page is used to set up GPS data sending to an AVL server.

AVL Server Settings


The AVL Server Settings section is used to configure the main parameters of data sending to an AVL server. The figure below is an example of the AVL Server Settings section and the table below provides information on the fields contained in that section:

[[File:{{{file_avl_settings}}}]]

Field Value Description
Enabled yes | no; default: no 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 yes | no; default: yes 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 router sends data of higher priority first. Priority levels from highest to lowest are as follows:
  1. Security
  2. Panic
  3. High
  4. Low
Collect period integer [1..999999]; default: 50 How often (in seconds) data will be collected.

Min angle integer [1..360]; default: 50 Minimum angle change (in degrees) before sending records.
Min saved records integer [1..32]; default: 20 Minimum amount of gathered records before sending.
Send period integer [0..999999]; default: 20 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 router 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.

[[File:{{{file_secondary_rules}}}]]

Field Value Description

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 router sends data of higher priority first. Priority levels from highest to lowest are as follows:
  1. Security
  2. Panic
  3. High
  4. Low
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.

AVL I/O

The AVL I/O tab provides you with the possibility to configure input rules.

Check Analog


The Check Analog section is used to set how often the router checks the value of the analog input. This is relevant to input rules related to the analog input.

[[File:{{{file_avl_io_analog}}}]]

Input Rules


The Input Rules section displays existing input rules. To create a new input rule look to the section below (AVL Input Configuration), select input type, trigger and click the 'Add' button.

To configure an input rule click the 'Edit' button located next to it. The figure below represents a newly added rule with default settings. Refer to the table below for information on the fields contained in the input rule configuration section.

[[File:{{{file_avl_io_rules}}}]]

Field Value Description

  1. Panic
  2. High
  3. Low

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.

[[File:{{{file_geofencing_add}}}]]

The figure below is an example of GPS Geofencing configuration and the table below provides information related to that configuration:

[[File:{{{file_geofencing_details}}}]]

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.
