Messages To The Kilo; Set Timing; Status Request - Xeos Technologies Inc. Kilo User Manual

Messages to the Kilo

There are six commands that are sent to the Kilo over the Iridium network via email or
XeosOnline:

1. Set Timing

2. Status
3. Enable Watch Circle Functionality
4. Set Watch Circle
5. Reset
6. Restore Factory Defaults
Set Timing
The $settiming command is used to set the Iridium check and GPS acquisition intervals for the
Kilo, after the 1-hour startup period has concluded. These interval values are set and stored in
minutes. The set timing file command is as follows:
$settiming
Details:
 The default timer is 180 minutes (3 hours)
 The minimum/maximum intervals are 5/1440 minutes (1 day)
 Values beyond the minimum/maximum will be set to the minimum/maximum
 Set intervals will persist between power cycles and resets
 Intervals are relative to 00:00 UTC
Once an SBD command has been sent to the Iridium gateway and queued for delivery, the Kilo
will receive the command on its next scheduled Iridium check. Upon receiving and processing a
$settiming command, the Kilo will send back a status message containing its new timings.

Status Request

The Status Request command is used to retrieve Kilo's current settings and beacon status.
The Kilo will respond to the command with the
