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 Monitoring and Tracking configuration IP AddressingThe problem created by Network Address Translation Firewall NetworkInternetRetrieve the Unique Mobile Device ID Solutions to the NAT problem8 Support and Warranty WarrantyTechnical support MP880W Modem User Guide 21307959 Technical Specifications Regulatory, radio frequency and electrical specificationsRev 1.5 Jul.08 Environmental specifications Weight and dimensionsMP880W Modem User Guide 2130795GPS specifications I/O port characteristicsHost interfaces Other interfacesWireless access point specifications 3G Watcher softwareMP880W Modem User Guide 213079510 Regulatory Information CanadaU.S.A Important Note FCC CautionApproved antennas European UnionMP 875 ruggedized wireless modem MP 875 ruggedized wireless modem with 802.11 b/g access pointSierra Wireless UK Limited Lakeside House Regulatory InformationMP880W Modem User Guide 2130795Index NumericsRev 1.1 Jul.08 NAT, 48, 49 non‐NAT, 48 mounting, 25NAT, 47 voltage specifications serial cable, 34 VPN support WAP enable, 54 overview, 53 specificationswarranty, 75 Watcher, 43- 46 weight, 78 width, 78 wire splicing Wireless Access Point.
