Store and Forward for RAP
Store and Forward RAP can provide seamless coverage even in areas with intermittent cellular
coverage. If the PinPoint-E leaves coverage or has very low signal (an RSSI of -105 or lower), it
will store the GPS messages in memory. When the modem re-enters cellular coverage, it will then
forward the messages as configured. The PinPoint-E can also store messages and send them to the
server in a packet rather than individually to conserve bandwidth.
FIGURE 18. Wireless Ace: Store and Forward
Once you have enabled SnF, *PPSNF, you can determine how you want the messages sent using
*PPSNFB, Store and Forward Mode:
Normal - Each report is sent immediately.
Polled - Reports held until requested by the server.
Grouped - Reports held until the total is equal or greater than *PPSNFM which sets the packet
size of grouped reports.
RTS 0 0x22
RTS 1 0x23
Support for the COM1000 is enable with the command *PPCOM1000=1. Once enabled, ALEOS
will receive the reports from a properly configured COM1000 and add the state of the extra inputs
to RAP packets sent to ATS.
The report type will indicate the state of change in the inputs. The contents of the report will be
the same as Report Type 0x12 (GPS data with date) or 0x13 (GPS data with date and RF data)
with the addition of the event report.
