Local
If you are sending reports on the local serial port, and/or if you
want them sent automatically, you will need to set *PPLATS.
The time interval, just as for *PPTIME, is in seconds.

Report Delay on Power-Up
The PinPoint‐E can be configured to wait a specific amount of
time after initialization before any reports are sent. Configure
#IG for the desired wait in seconds.

Store and Forward
Store and Forward can provide seamless coverage even in
areas with intermittent cellular coverage. If the PinPoint‐E
leaves coverage or has very low signal (an RSSI of ‐105 or
lower), it will store the GPS messages in memory. When the
modem re‐enters cellular coverage, it will then forward the
messages as configured. The PinPoint‐E can also store
messages and send them to the server in a packet rather than
individually to conserve bandwidth.
Enable Store and Forward using *PPSNF. You can also
determine how you want the messages sent using *PPSNFB
and *PPSNFM.
