4.3 Using GPS-communication
A SIM card is required to use the device. This is normally purchased by the end user and fitted then in Automower® by the dealer, together with the GPS communication unit. The SIM card, assembly and installation are normally not included in the price of the GPS unit or the mower.
When the SIM card is installed, the administrator's phone number must be entered before the GPS communication unit can be used for the first time. Enter the required administrator's phone number by sending an SMS to Automower® with the command Spn1 followed by the phone number, e.g. Spn1 +46701234567. The GPS unit confirms the new administrator phone number by sending an SMS back with the message Set phone number 1 OK. This phone number is essential to operate the unit. The administrator can enter a further four phone numbers for communicating with the mower (see table on page 41).
SMS feature
In cases where an error message is displayed in the mower display, the GPS communication unit sends an SMS with the same error message. A number of messages are presented in chapter 9.1 Fault messages (page 69).
The following SMS can be sent to Automower® to change settings or enquire of settings and status.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Note that it is important to write the messages exactly as outlined in the tables below, with spaces, dots and colons in the correct manner. All commands are confirmed by Automower® sending back an SMS.
The commands that start with the letter S (Set) change a setting and commands beginning with an R (Read) read settings or status.
