6.2.2.2.1 Tracking Tab
Tracking tab has eight settings: Report Flood, Blocked Invalid Reports, Queue Failed
Reports, Queue Restricted Reports, Motion Enabled, Callable, Skip Reporting when Stationary,
and Iridium Allowed.
6.2.2.2.1.1 Report Flood
This parameter sets the number of tracking reports that are to be transmitted continuously
when first entering Tracking mode and when the tracking mode changes (for example, from
Normal to Emergency). After the specified tracking reports have been transmitted, the pre-
programmed reporting interval will take effect. If in the Emergency tracking mode, the report
flood will be ended prematurely if an emergency acknowledgement is received. The AT
command associated with this setting is ^RF.
6.2.2.2.1.2 Block Invalid Reports
When this setting is enabled, only tracking reports with a valid GPS position fix are
transmitted. This can be useful in filtering out possibly misleading GPS data points. The AT
command for this setting is ^BIGR.
