CYCLIC GPRS CONNECTION
The cyclic GPRS connection allows to connect the tracker automatically at a programmed rate for the
continuous position updating. At the programmed rate, the tracker will be connected only for the time needed
for sending the position point. This function is very useful if combined with the I-Scout web server as it allows
to display the detected positions by every station connected to internet.
To use this function, it is necessary to:
set the GPRS parameters • using the provided software or sending an SMS command
enable the function setting the rate for the cyclic GPRS connection • using the provided software
Anchor
The Anchor function allows to monitor within a pre-established circular area the position of a person, an object
or an animal. When the tracker detects the exiting from the pre-established area or the ri-entering, it sends an
alarm SMS containing its position data to the preset phone number.
This function is programmable using the complete SMS command (enabling and radius setting), either
operating directly on the tracker, or partially by the provided software.
When the complete SMS command is received by the tracker (e.g. wanc=1,0500), the function is enabled and
the current tracker position is considered as area central point. If the function is enabled without setting the
radius, the previously set coordinates for the central point and the last programmed radius will be considered.
If no radius was previously programmed, by default it will be set to 100 m.
This function is programmable completely by SMS command (wanc), either operating directly on the tracker.
By the provided software, only function enabling and radius setting is possible.
Before enabling this function, it is necessary to set the phone number where
SMS will be sent by means of the provided software.
