Global Positioning System (GPS)
RAP Configuration
RAP has additional features which allow reports based on external physical events, input from a
3rd party devices, store and forward processing, etc.
Most of the configuration settings for RAP can be changed with the RAP configuration command
message. Refer to the AirLink Tracking System User Guide.
RAP Reports Over-The-Air (Remote)
To configure the PinPoint to send RAP reports to a remote server, you will need to set 3 com-
mands: *PPIP, *PPPORT, and *PPGPSR.
FIGURE 9. Wireless Ace: RAP Reports Remote
1. Set the IP (*PPIP) and port (*PPPORT) to the IP and port of the server to which you want the
reports sent.
2. Set the GPS Report Type (*PPGPSR) to your preferred RAP report type.
11 - GPS - Global Positioning System data
12 - GPS + Date - GPS data with the UTC time and date
13 - GPS + Date + RF - GPS data with the UTC time and date and Radio Frequency informa-
tion from the antenna.
If you need to use a dynamic IP address for the host server, you can use the RAP configuration
command to change the value for *PPIP (see below).

RAP Reports over a Local Connection (PPP or SLIP)
Note: If your PinPoint is on a mixed network (some of the fleet on another cellular
network), you will need to specify the IP of the server in *PPIP and configure the
PinPoint not to change the server IP with a RAP configuration command using
*PPIGNOREIP. This will prevent the ATS server configuration packets from
changing the *PPIP value.
Local reports are sent to the local IP address of the computer or device connected to the serial port
of the PinPoint using PPP or SLIP. To configure the modem to send to the local IP, you will need
to set 3 commands: S53, *PPLATS, and *PPLATSR.
