Device ID

By enabling *PPDEVID, a device ID of the PinPoint‐E is sent as 
part of the RAP message to make identification easier in a 
network or fleet of vehicles equipped with PinPoint line 
devices.

Figure 9-19: AceManager : PinPoint - *PPDEVID

With *PPDEVID enabled, the PinPoint‐E will use the value 
configured for *NETPHONE for the device ID. If *NETPHONE 
is empty, the ESN of the modem will be used.

Tip: If the PinPoint-E is using a dynamic IP, *PPDEVID needs to be
enabled.

Odometer Data in Reports

When the odometer report is enabled, the PinPoint‐E will 
calculate distance between reports based on GPS data. The 
modem’s odometer calculations can be included in the RAP 
message.

Figure 9-20: AceManager : PinPoint - *PPODOM, *PPODOMVAL

*PPODOM enables the odometer reporting.

*PPODOMVAL is the current odometer reading in the 
PinPoint‐E. You can set this to a number to offset the 
odometer calculation, such as one‐time manual synchroni‐
zation of the PinPoint‐E odometer with the current vehicle 
odometer.

Note: The odometer calculations of the PinPoint-E may not match the
odometer in the vehicle itself. The PinPoint-E odometer is not
connected to the vehicle’s, it is entirely based on calculations of GPS
readings.

Serial Input Event Reports

You can configure the PinPoint‐E to send reports to the AVL 
Host based on the state of the digital inputs.
