The Unlock Code
The Rover-X uses unlock codes as a security measure to prevent unauthorized commands. The
unlock code is generated when first programmed, or it can be changed manually via Bluetooth
or Iridium. The unlock code is sent out to all provisioned addresses associated with the Rover-
X
’s IMEI in a plain text message
at boot.
Any commands which do not include a valid unlock code as the first line will be ignored by the
Rover-X, but will prompt the unit to reply with a valid unlock code to all provisioned addresses.
When using XeosOnline, unlock codes are generated automatically for all outgoing commands
and should not be included. XeosOnline will also automatically update if a new unlock code
should be generated. SBD commands over e-mail must include an unlock code.
Sending the Command
To send your sbd command, create a new email message with the following fields:
To:
Subject:

Body:

Attachments

A confirmation will be immediately returned from the Iridium Gateway from the address
indicating that your message is now in the message queue. It will
be delivered to the device during its next Iridium check.
Commands can be sent from any email address, but responses will be returned
only
to email
addresses on the unit’s forwarding list.
