when checking for network coverage, or when data is received

from the server.

Self-Geofence

Peg Lat/Lon: Latitude and longitude values used for self-geofence.

COM Ports

Port A Route: Controls whether Port A is routed to the Prog connector, COM1

connector or Wi-Fi module during normal operation.

Port A-F: Defines what devices are connected to each of the i50’s serial

ports. Port A route is controlled by the setting above. Port B

connects to COM2. Port C connects to internal GPRS modem.

Port D connects to internal Iridium modem. Port F connects to

the COM3 connector. See section 8.0 for a list of available

options.

COM1/2 Flow Control: Turn flow control on or off for the COM1 and COM2 connectors.

Firmware version 4.16 and earlier also controlled the Wi-Fi flow

control on.

GPS

GPS COM Speed: GPS module COM speed.

Update clock using GPS: Automatically set real-time clock base on GPS signals.

GPS satellites: Require a certain number of GPS satellites to mark a position

as valid. Note: this should normally be set to zero, as the GPS

module calculates position validity based on received signal

strength and satellite positions.

Internal GPS: Enable use of internal GPS module. If disabled, an external

GPS module can be connected via a serial connection.

Cell COM Speed: Cellular modem COM speed.

Cell Modem Type: Type of cellular modem.

Cell Server Domain Name: Optional domain name for server. When enabled, the i50 will

perform DNS lookups to determine server IP address.
