Cellular Usage Tracking
Note: The Cellular Usage Tracking feature is not an official value of the usage a carrier reports. Due to
possible differences in these values, cellular usage tracking should be used as an aid for gauging how
much data the system is using over a period rather than as a reliable method to determine billing costs.
Parameter
Description
Data Plan Limit
Specifies whether or not the cellular data storage usage tracking
feature is enabled.
Plan Start Day
Specifies the day of the month (1 to 28) that the data plan begins. For
example, AT&T service in the USA is billed from the 19th of the
month through the 18th of the following month. This is the day that
the Usage Value Counter resets on.
Plan Size
Maximum number of megabytes (MB) or gigabytes (GB) of WAN data
usage before 3G communications are shut down until the next plan
start day. You can also choose
Unlimited
. It provides a visual status
of how much data is being used.
Stop Data After Plan Limit
Reached
Specifies whether or not the ICX35-HWC will voluntarily deactivate
cellular data if it reaches its data plan limit. You can select
Disabled
or
Enabled
.
If you select
Disabled
, the ICX35-HWC will attempt to transfer data
even if the Plan Size is exceeded, but the cellular data service
provider may halt data, reduce the data rate, or charge additional
fees. A 10% buffer is automatically used to help prevent data
overages because the gateway usage number isn't instantaneously
updated and it may be possible that some amount of byte count loss
occurs due to a device reset.
If you select
Enabled
, the ICX35-HWC stops transferring data after
the Plan (size) limit is reached.
