Local Host
To set the PinPoint X to report to a local host, one directly
connected to the serial port, configure the port to be used with
S53 ‐ Destination Port. The local IP address will automatically
be used for local reports. S53, in AceManager, is part of the
Misc group.
Figure 10-3: AceManager : Misc - S53 Port
If you need to send reports to additional local ports, you can
specify other ports with *PPLATSEXTRA. Local Reports can be
sent to up to 7 additional ports consecutively following the S53
port. If S53=1000 and *PPLATSEXTRA=4, reports will be sent
to 1000, 1001, 1002, 1003, and 1004. In PPLATSEXTRA, specify
the number of ports where you want the reports sent, 0 to 7 (0
disables extra ports).

TCP GPS Report Polling
The PinPoint X can easily and quickly be polled for location by
opening a TCP connection to port 9494 (default). Once the
connection is established, the PinPoint X will send a report
with the current position using the GPS report type the
modem is configured to use.
You can change the port for the TCP GPS poll using
*PPTCPPOLL.
