Setup Gmail Account to Allow WQData LIVE Access (Iridium)
X2 Iridium satellite data loggers transmit data messages via the Iridium network to an email server. The data
messages can then be downloaded from the email server to the WQData LIVE web datacenter.
In order to facilitate this process, NexSens hosts a secure Gmail account as a medium to store and upload data
to WQData LIVE. Although this option is freely available to all customers that purchase an Iridium system from
NexSens, private Gmail accounts can be set up to achieve the same purpose. Follow the steps below to set up a
user-owned Gmail account to send Iridium data messages to WQData LIVE.
