Flash Memory 

The Resilient comes equipped with internal flash memory, used to store logged events and GPS 
positions over the lifetime of the product. This information can be retrieved for data collection 
or  troubleshooting  purposes.  Since  the  Resilient  comes  equipped  with  Bluetooth  for 
configuration  with  the 

Xeos  Beacon  Android  App, 

this  method  of  communication  requires  no 

disassembly. 
 
Refer to th

Bluetooth App Guide

 for more information on the app itself. 

Dumping the Flash Memory 

 

Connect to the Resilient using the Bluetooth App for Android. If The device does not 
appear as advertising on the main page do one of the following: 

 

Power cycle the device with a magnet or temporary battery removal 

 

Send the device the following command over Iridium: $btpwr 1 

 

 

Navigate to the terminal page 

 

Use the terminal page to send the flash dump command: $fdumpall 

 

The entire memory log of the device will begin outputting into the terminal tab. When 
the output slows, the dump is complete. 

 

Output from the Terminal page can be saved to your device in the form of a text file by 
tapping the diagnostic output, and tapping Save Output.  

 

 

 

The saved file will appear in the Android device’s Downloads directory.
