Global Positioning System (GPS)

If you need to send reports to additional local ports, you can specify other ports with *PPLATSEXTRA. Local Reports can be sent to up to 7 additional ports consecutively following the S53 port. If S53=1000 and *PPLATSEXTRA=4, reports will be sent to 1000, 1001, 1002, 1003, and 1004. In PPLATSEXTRA, specify the number of ports where you want the reports sent, 0 to 7 (0 disables extra ports).

TCP GPS Report Polling

The PinPoint‐E can easily and quickly be polled for location by opening a TCP connection to port 9494 (default). Once the connection is established, the PinPoint‐E will send a report with the current position using the GPS report type the modem is configured to use.

You can change the port for the TCP GPS poll using

*PPTCPPOLL.

Note: Some Internet providers (including cellular) block ports below 1024.

Report Types

There are several report types available. For remote reports, set *PPGPSR. For local reports, set *PPLATSR.
