Rover makes use of the Iridium Satellite Systems' Short Burst Data (SBD) service for the 9603

transceiver. This service is a global (including the Polar Regions), two-way, real-time and email-

based data delivery service with a maximum outbound (from beacon) message size of 340 bytes

and a maximum inbound (to beacon) message size of 270 bytes.

Rover end users must set up an approved data delivery account with their preferred service

provider. This can only be done once Xeos has provided the user with an International Mobile

Equipment Identity (IMEI) number. Each 9603 modem has a unique IMEI that must be registered

with the preferred service provider. For a list of service providers in your area please contact

Iridium

for recommendations. Xeos Technologies is also able to provide Iridium SBD data service

and accounts. Please contact

Each IMEI number is capable of being associated with up to five (5) unique email addresses (this

may vary between service providers). When registering an IMEI number, please provide the

service provider with a temporary Xeos testing account email address.

This account is: xeosbeaconb@gmail.com

This temporary email testing account can be deleted or replaced at any time after delivery of the

Rover. Once the SBD account has been activated, please contact your Xeos representative and

confirm this.
