Sending Reports Automatically
Remote
You can configure the PinPoint X to send reports based on a
time interval and on the movement of a vehicle (based on it’s
position from one time to the next).
Figure 10-7: AceManager : PinPoint - *PPTIME, *PPDIST, *PPTSV,
*PPMINTIME
• *PPTIME ‐ Location report sent every set time interval
(seconds).
• *PPDIST ‐ Location report sent only if the position is more
than the set distance (x 100 meters).
• *PPTSV ‐ Location report sent if the vehicle has been in
one location (stationary) for more than a set time interval
(minutes).
• *PPMINTIME ‐ Location report sent be sent at no less
than this time interval (seconds).
Note: If you’re implementing both a time interval and distance interval
for reports, the PinPoint X will use the timer which expires first. The
reporting interval can impact your data usage. If the interval is set
frequently, you may want to have a high usage or unlimited data plan.
Tip: One mile is approximately 1600 meters. 1000 meters is one
kilometer.
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 X 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.
