IMPORTANT CONFIGURATION NOTES
We strongly recommend testing the network connection from device to the server before adjusting TAT140 configuration to your needs. Use the following steps to perform this test:
- Configure these parameters: APN, server Domain and server Port;
- Save configuration to the device by clicking on a Save to device button;
- Initiate connection by pressing the Test Connection button.
At this point, TAT140 will create one high-priority record and initiate connection to the server immediately.
If connection was not initiated, it can mean any of the following:
- Improperly inserted SIM Card
- Incorrect values are set to these fields: APN, Domain or Port;
- GPRS functionality disabled by GSM provider;
- No GSM coverage;
- Server cannot be reached.
Try solving this problem before proceeding with further device configuration.
Periodic: This mode is used to get positioning data at fixed intervals. Configuration range is from 360 to 259200 (in seconds).
Scheduler: This mode is used to get positioning data at fixed schedule. Device can send positioning data up to 6 times on set days.
MAIN RULES OF SETTING SCHEDULE:
- Intervals between different times must be at least 6 minutes;
- Days of the week must be selected and highlighted for the device to send records according to the set schedule.
