The default for the fast rate timer is three seconds If the GPS timer is set to 0, the reporting interval is determined by the configuration of the GPS module. If the module is configured for TAIP, you can issue TAIP commands to change the interval. An advantage of configuring the report frequency with TAIP commands is that the interval between reports can be based on elapsed time and/or distance travelled IP Addressing Monitoring and Tracking configurationFirewall NetworkInternet The problem created by Network Address TranslationSolutions to the NAT problem Retrieve the Unique Mobile Device IDWarranty 8 Support and WarrantyTechnical support 2130795 MP880W Modem User GuideRegulatory, radio frequency and electrical specifications 9 Technical SpecificationsRev 1.5 Jul.08 Weight and dimensions Environmental specificationsMP880W Modem User Guide 2130795I/O port characteristics GPS specificationsHost interfaces Other interfaces3G Watcher software Wireless access point specificationsMP880W Modem User Guide 2130795Canada 10 Regulatory InformationU.S.A FCC Caution Important NoteApproved antennas European UnionMP 875 ruggedized wireless modem with 802.11 b/g access point MP 875 ruggedized wireless modemSierra Wireless UK Limited Lakeside House Regulatory Information2130795 MP880W Modem User GuideNumerics IndexNAT, 48, 49 non‐NAT, 48 mounting, 25 Rev 1.1 Jul.08NAT, 47 WAP enable, 54 overview, 53 specifications voltage specifications serial cable, 34 VPN supportwarranty, 75 Watcher, 43- 46 weight, 78 width, 78 wire splicing Wireless Access Point.
