55: GPS ReportingGPS Display windowThe GPS Display window reports data from the embedded GPS module. From a cold start (where the MP modem is powered on with no stored navigational data), it may take a few seconds for the GPS module to obtain satellite fixes and begin reporting.

Note: If the values reported in the window are grayed out, they are not being updated.

The module must have a fix on at least four satellites to report latitude, longitude, altitude, velocity and heading. (The GPS icon ToolTip shows how many satellites are being tracked.) The module can track a maximum of twelve satellites.

The GPS Display window reports:• Latitude and Longitude—these are your coordinates in

degrees, minutes, and seconds.• Speed—this is calculated based on your current latitude

and longitude and the last reading (one second previous). This is either in kilometers per hour or miles per hour depending on your chosen option.

• Direction—this shows your direction in degrees from true north (0), increasing clockwise.

• Altitude—this shows your altitude relative to mean sea level, in either feet or meters, depending on your chosen option.

• UTC—this shows the Universal Coordinated Time (the time in Greenwich, England). The format of the time is based on your Control Panel settings in Windows.

• Local Time—this is calculated based on the UTC and the time zone you have set in Windows. The format of the time is based on your Control Panel settings in Windows.

The accuracy of the data reported in this window varies depending on the number of satellites being tracked, atmospheric conditions, and satellite clock errors.

Note: The embedded module is a Trimble GPS module. For details on how these readings are measured and the accuracy of the data, visit www.trimble.com.

GPS signalThe GPS LED on the front of the MP modem shows the status of the GPS signal. If the LED is solid, satellite fixes have been obtained.

The GPS icon on the main 3G Watcher window flashes when the module is unable to obtain a fix on at least four satellites. This may be because:• The GPS signal is being blocked by a building or structure

(such as when in an underground parking garage).• Reception of the GPS signal is being affected by inter‐

ference in areas with a large volume of radio signals (such as near antenna farms).

• Extreme atmospheric conditions (like thunderstorms) are affecting reception.

• The GPS antenna is faulty or improperly installed.

Using 3G Watcher to send AT commands provides you with a convenient interface and the ability to send AT commands over a USB cable. (If you are sending AT commands from HyperTerminal, you need a serial connection between the MP modem and the computer.)

AT Commands for the MP modemThe MP modem has two main components—a radio module and a controller board. Each of these components has its own firmware (resident software). AT commands that begin with AT!MP are handled by the controller board; all others are handled by the radio module.

For more information on AT commands and a list of supported AT commands, see the MP 3G Modems AT Command Reference (document #2130810). It is available at www.sierrawireless.com.

Note: You cannot send AT commands to the radio module when the MP modem is connected to the network.

Note: The AT Command window displays AT commands and responses but does not display unsolicited messages from the modem. HyperTerminal will display unsolicited modem messages.

Name field.3. Click OK.

Operating ModeThe operating mode controls whether the MP modem connects to the network automatically when it is powered on. To fully understand these modes, it is necessary to recognize that there are two modem connections:• Host‐to‐modem. This is the connection between the

computer on which 3G Watcher in installed and the MP modem, and is established in one of these ways:

ul.08 27


28

· If your computer is connected to the MP modem with a USB or Ethernet cable, a host‐to‐modem connection is automatically established as soon as the computer and the MP modem are powered on.

· If your computer is connected to the MP modem with a serial cable, a host‐to‐modem connection is established by selecting the Connect button in 3G Watcher.

• Modem‐to‐Network This is the connection between the MP modem and the network. In Always On mode (default), this connection is established whenever the MP modem is powered and network service is available. In On Demand mode, this connection is only established when the host‐to‐modem connection is also established.In an environment where a central network application is being used to control or monitor MP modems installed in a fleet of vehicles, it is usually best to use Always On mode.

To set the operating mode:1. From the main menu, select Tools > Options > MP.2. Under MP Modem Settings, select the drop‐down menu

beside the Operating Mode field, and select the desired option.

3. Click OK.

Power Off TimerThe way in which the MP modem is installed determines how it is powered on and off. In most cases the power supply for the MP modem is a vehicle’s electrical system and the MP modem is powered on and off in one of these ways:• The MP modem is powered only when the ignition is on.

(The MP modem is only on when the engine is on.)• The MP modem is powered on when the ignition is

switched to “Accessories”. (This allows the MP modem to be powered on when the engine is off.)

• The MP modem is connected to a separate on/off switch so that it can be turned on and off independently of the engine and vehicle accessories.

The Power Off Timer field allows you to specify a period of time that the MP modem remains on after the ignition or separate on/off switch is switched off.

To set the Power Off Timer field:1. From the main menu, select Tools > Options > MP.

Configure Digital I/O

Rev 2.0 J

· Label: Enter a name for the sensor or gauge (Measured Voltage, Vehicle Speed, etc.), up to 20 characters long.

· Unit: Specify the units of the input (volts, km/h, etc.), up to 20 characters long.

· Zero Scale: Enter the minimum value for the units you are reporting (used to convert the raw analog value of zero).

· Full Scale: Enter the maximum value for the units you are reporting (used to convert the raw value of 1023).

Example:

If you are measuring temperature, and the thermometer you have connected to the I/O connector measures between ‐30 (raw value 0) and +50 (raw value 1023) degrees Celsius, then your zero scale is -30.0 and your full scale is 50.0. Your label could be “Temperature”, and units, “degrees C”.

The measurements are calculated for the 80‐degree range (between ‐30 and +50), which is divided into 1024 steps (0.0781 degrees per unit step). A reading of 25 degrees (55 degrees above the minimum) would therefore show a raw value of 704 (55 degrees/0.0781 degrees per unit).

Monitor and TrackingThe MP modem is designed to send GPS and I/O data to a central host. The Monitoring and Tracking Protocol (MT) defines how the MP modem data is packaged.

You can configure the MT protocol in the Monitor and Tracking pane in 3G Watcher or by using the AT Command AT!MPMTCONF. For more information on using this AT command, see the MP 3G Modems AT Command Reference (document #2130810).

When configuring MT, you specify the IP address and port number to which the MT data is to be sent, and the values for the timers that determine the frequency with which the data is to be sent.

The MP modem provides four independent reporting engines, allowing data to be sent to four different destinations. This allows for example, GPS data to be sent to one host appli‐cation, and I/O data to be sent to another. Each section of the Monitor and Tracking pane (Engine 0, Engine 1, Engine 2, Engine 3) corresponds to a reporting engine.

To open the Monitoring and Tracking pane:1. From the main menu, select Tools > Options > MP > Monitor

and Tracking.2. For each of the four engines, you can set:• Connection type:

· Disabled —This engine is not being used.· UDP —This engine is used for data transmission .· GPS — This engine is used for transmitting GPS infor‐mation.

• Server IP — the IP address of the network server.• Server Port — data will be sent to this port number on the

network server.

ul.08 33


34

• Low Report Rate — interval (in minutes) between reports sent by the low rate timer. (The default is five minutes.)

• Fast Report Rate — interval (in seconds) between reports sent by the high rate timer. (The default is three seconds.)

• GPS Timer — interval (in seconds) between reports sent by the GPS timer. The default is ten seconds. (If this is set to 0, the report frequency is “GPS driven”. See the User Guide for your MP modem for more information.) The MP modem sends MT data to the IP address specified by the Server IP parameter.

3. Click OK.

To send data to the MP modem, a host application on a network server requires the IP address of the MP modem. Typically service providers do not provide a static IP address to each device on the network. Rather, the IP address is dynamically assigned each time the MP modem registers on the network. This means that the host application must identify each MP modem by its Unique Mobile Device ID and capture its IP address as it registers.

If the MP modem has a public IP address, the host application can simply check the IP address on the incoming data packets to determine the IP address of the MP modem. However, if NAT (Network Address Translation) is in use, the IP address assigned to the MP modem is likely to be a private IP address. For more information, refer to the User Guide for your MP modem.

The Monitoring and Tracking Protocol Guide describes the protocols used in data transmissions between the MP modem and the network server. It provides the information necessary to develop host applications that process GPS and digital input from a fleet of MP modems. For more information contact [email protected].

Connection WatchdogThe Connection Watchdog monitors connections to determine whether the MP modem is able to receive data from the network. If the MP modem has not received any data for a certain time (configurable), the Connection Watchdog either sends a DNS query to the DNS server or pings a specified IP address, depending on how the feature is configured. If data is received following the DNS query or ping, the MP modem maintains the connection. Otherwise the MP modem termi‐nates the connection. If the MP modem is in “always‐on” mode, it attempts reconnection once the connection is termi‐nated.

2130802

Connection Watchdog

Rev 2.0 J

When a new connection is established, the MP modem verifies that the DNS server is valid or that pings are possible (depending on the Mode setting) before the MP modem begins monitoring for data receipt. If the MP modem is unable to verify the DNS server or the ping fails, the Connection Watchdog remains inactive, but the MP modem continues to either ping or verify the DNS server at the interval set by the Validation Timer.

To configure the Connection Watchdog: 1. From the main menu, select Tools > Options > MP >

Connection Watchdog.2. Under Network Settings, in the Mode drop‐down list, select

DNS or PING.If you select DNS, the Ping IP field will be greyed out. If you select PING, the DNS Name and DNS Port fields will be greyed out.

3. Complete the Ping IP, or DNS Name and DNS Port fields, depending on your above selection.The Ping IP format is X.X.X.X where X is a value between 0 and 255. (The default is 0.0.0.0.)The DNS Name is the web site name for DNS to resolve (such as www.sierrawireless.com). The maximum string length is 128 characters.The allowed port values are 1 to 65535. The default is 7367. To avoid selecting a port number that is in use by another component, use the default port number.

4. Under Timers, in the Connection Timer field, enter the interval, in minutes, at which the MP modem checks whether data is being received.When this interval is reached, depending on the Mode set‐ting, the modem either sends a DNS query or pings the address specified by the Ping IP field. The allowed values are 0 to 240. When set to 0, the Connection Watchdog is disabled. (0 is the default.)

5. In the Validation Timer field, enter the interval, in minutes, at which the modem checks for a DNS server or attempts a ping when a new connection is established.The allowed values are 1 to 240. (30 is the default.)

6. Under Reset On, in the Connection termination drop‐down list, select No or Yes.This determines whether the radio component is reset when the Connection Watchdog determines that a connec‐tion has failed.

ul.08 35


36

When set to No (the default), the Connection Watchdog ter‐minates invalid connections, but does NOT perform a reset. When set to Yes, the Connection Watchdog resets the radio component after terminating the connection.

7. In the Number of connection failures field, enter the number of connection failures at which the Connection Watchdog will reset the radio component.The default is 0.

8. Click OK.

Configure router functionsThe MP modem supports Network Address Translation (NAT), which enables you to use the MP modem to commu‐nicate with up to 10 devices on an Ethernet network and up to 10 additional devices on a wireless access point network.

When NAT is enabled, you can share files and resources between computers over the LAN.

The router features are enabled when NAT is enabled.

To enable NAT:1. Select Tools > Options > MP. 2. Under Network Settings, select Network Address Translation

(NAT) and from the drop‐down list, select Enabled.The MP modem automatically resets in order for this change to take effect.
