Terminal watchdog
The Terminal watchdog continuously monitors the operational status of the terminal and
allows you to perform the following actions at regular intervals (set by the user):
• Wake up the terminal from power save state
• Start a data connection (PDP context)
• Check your IP connection (ping - similar to Connection watchdog)
• Send a position SMS or a loopback SMS to verify SMS connection
The terminal continuously monitors:
• The time (monitors that UTC time is received from GPS at startup)
• CS-attach (the status of circuit-switched connection)
If any of the actions fail, the terminal restarts.
Set up Terminal watchdog
To set up the Terminal watchdog, do as follows:
1. Under Advanced, select Terminal watchdog.
Important
The Terminal watchdog can potentially drain the vehicle battery, because in
certain cases it will prevent the terminal from going into power save state. If
possible, we recommend using the Connection watchdog instead.
Note
The EXPLORER 323 operates with UTC time, local time is not available.
