Integrating Beacons with the Hermes
The Hermes is designed to receive messages from Xeos beacons through the use of XeosOnline’s
forwarder system. Therefore, all beacons intended to be used with the Hermes must be activated
on the Iridium network and set to send messages to XeosOnline by the Iridium provider. The
Hermes must also be activated on the Iridium network to receive messages.
XeosOnline
The connection between devices is entirely controlled on XeosOnline. A maximum of ten devices
can be set via the forwarder system to send position messages to the Hermes at one time.
Forwarders can be created via the Admin tab on the top-right of the page on XeosOnline.
