6.2 Configuration
The iBCN configuration consists of 6 operating
parameters.
GPS Position Interval
– This interval sets the timing for
GPS position acquisitions. Positions are stored into the
internal memory log. Minimum setting is 2 minutes with
a maximum setting of 2 days.
Number of Intervals per Transmission
– This setting
sets the number of GPS Position Intervals to occur before
transmitting the data.
The default setting is 1, which transmits the data upon
each GPS Position acquisition. However, multiple GPS
positions can be accumulated and transmitted together
to reduce power usage.
Number of Intervals per Mailbox Check
– This setting
sets the number of GPS Position Intervals to occur before
polling the Iridium network for incoming messages. A
mailbox check is similar to a transmission however no
data is sent from the iBCN.
This allows the iBCN to be responsive to incoming
configuration commands without having to always
transmit data. The default setting is 1.
Transmit GPS Location Only
– When this check box is
enabled, only the most recent GPS fix will be transmitted.
All other GPS and other mission data, such as battery
status and Iridium Timeout events will be logged to
memory.
