There is a Standard and Motion value for this setting. The Motion value applies
when the Use Alternate Motion Settings option is enabled and the SHOUT sp
device has detected motion.
Delay First Report
When enabled, this setting prevents the transmission of the first tracking report.
This applies when tracking is turned on from off or if there is a mode change. A
mode change occurs when motion is detected or when emergency mode is
enabled/disabled. There is a Standard and Motion value for this setting. The
Motion value applies when the Use Alternate Motion Settings option is enabled
and the SHOUT sp device has detected motion.
An example of how this parameter might be useful is to avoid unwanted
transmissions which may accumulate airtime costs. If tracking mode is
restarting repeatedly because of frequent power cycling, reports will be
transmitted each time. Enabling Delay First Report would delay that first report
and reduce the airtime usage.

Report Flood
This parameter as seen in Figure 70 sets the number of tracking reports that
are to be transmitted continuously when first entering Tracking mode and when
the tracking mode changes (for example, from Normal to Emergency). After the
specified tracking reports have been transmitted, the pre-programmed
reporting interval will take effect. In the Emergency tracking mode, the report
flood will be ended prematurely when an emergency acknowledgement is
received.
Skip Reporting when Stationary
This function as seen in Figure 71 and Figure 72 limits the SHOUT sp from
sending tracking reports when it has not moved out of a specified Radius. The
3 Modes for this function are; Off, On, and On, Excluding Cycles to Skip. When
the Mode is On, the device is bound to a sphere with a specified Radius. While
