Email Dispatch Of The Tracking Data - Renkforce GX111 Operating Instructions Manual

12. Email Dispatch of the Tracking Data

The GX111 is able to send the tracking data saved with the command TRACK by email. However, this requires advan-
ced knowledge in the area of SMTP protocol, internet architecture, email configuration, etc.
Problem server timeout, bad data connection, GPRS speed:
The product has a GPRS module and thus a maximum upload data speed (from the GX111 to the Internet) of 53.6
kbit/s.
Even under the best conditions, complete uploading of the tracking data would take at least 8 minutes.
At GSM radio mast change, in rural areas (weak signal), with high network utilisation (conurbations) or other difficul-
ties, there may be interruptions of the email-server connection.
The longer a connection takes, the higher the probability of cancellation. It cannot be predicted how long the connec-
tion is retained and how high the data rate will be.
Therefore, you as the user of the GX111 must decide what „Risk" is to be taken for the transmission volume. Each
unsuccessful attempt will be charged by the GSM provider, no matter if the email was sent successfully or not.
For this reason, the area and thus the data volume to be transferred, is chosen when sending the tracking data. The
bigger the data volume, the bigger the risk. The area input permits transmission of the memory in several small steps.
Due to the complexity of the many variation options, the technical support for this area is limited. Only help
with configuration on the side of the GSM module can be offered.
The questions of how the data required for email-server configuration are determined, how the email server
is set and whether the email server even permits an incoming connection can only be answered by the
email provider.
You have full control of where to transfer the data. Only the selected data will be transferred, only at the
time and only to the server that you have configured.
