primary server receiving data from the device
and
backup server receiving data from the Active Track device in the event of the
primary server failure.
7.2.3.1.3.1.
Server IP Address
This is the IP address (for example 89.123.115.8) of a monitoring system receiver
(OSM.Server) or a computer on which the software including an OSM.Server receiver
is installed. The address can be specified as a domain name of the server, e.g.
module.gprs.com.
7.2.3.1.3.2.
Server port
Specifies the server port assigned to receive data from the transmitter.
7.2.3.1.3.3.
Interval between successive connection attempts
In this field, you should define the time interval (in seconds) after which a next
attempt will be made to connect to the given server, after an unsuccessful attempt.
7.2.3.1.3.4.
Number of attempts to connect to the server
This option determines the number of times the device will attempt to connect to the
server. If the device has made a defined number of unsuccessful attempts to connect
to the primary server, it will start the procedure of connecting to the backup server. If
the connection between the Active Track Basic+ device and the backup server is not
established after a defined number of attempts, the device will switch to normal
operation mode and will try to connect to the server again after a period defined in
point "The period of communication with the server after an unsuccessful connection"
(see chapter 7.2.3.1.2.3).
7.2.3.1.3.5.
Period of test events
In this field, you should define how often a "Test" event will be sent to the monitoring
station during an established connection to the server (for example, during charging,
when the Active Track Basic+ device maintains constant communication with the
server).
7.2.3.1.3.6.
Disconnect after a time limit
This option applies only to the backup server. If this option is selected, the device will
disconnect from the backup server after a defined period of time (in seconds). Further
action depends on the parameter defining the connection sequence (see chapter
7.2.3.1.3.7).
7.2.3.1.3.7.
Always try to connect to the primary server first
If this option is active, the device will always try to connect to the primary server first,
regardless of the definition of parameters for the backup server (in particular the
number of connection attempts).
