Control commands
You can send control commands in the form of SMS messages or in GPRS mode
(for example, using the OSM.Server monitoring receiver console) to the Active Track
Basic+ device in order to get additional information or use additional functions. If a control
command is sent in the operating mode with the "SMS command support" option enabled
(see chapter 7.2.3.1.2.1), the connection to the GSM network and the server is established
and the task specified in the command is performed. The same applies when the device is
placed in the charging cradle and maintains constant communication with the server.
