TTU-4530™. (See LM Direct™ Reference Guide for details) You are using the standard wiring harness from CalAmp and the serial port expansion harness. You have created a HyperTerminal or Putty session. You have contacted the CalAmp sales team regarding the network availability of the TTU- 4530™. - Page 13 AT$APP PARAM 2319,0,ddd.ddd.ddd.ddd AT$APP PARAM 768,0,ddd.ddd.ddd.ddd (32-bit products only) AT$APP PARAM 769,0,ppppp Where ddd.ddd.ddd.ddd is the publicly addressable IPV4 address of your LM Direct™ server and ppppp is the UDP port number. 4. Alternatively if a URL has been set up for your LM Direct™ server, the TTU may be programmed with: AT$APP PARAM 2319,0,myURL.MyCompany.Com Where myURL.MyCompany.com is the URL assigned to the server.

DO NOT give them the CalAmp ESN (i.e. the top one on the label). It will only lead to the carrier telling you that the product doesn’t exist and they can’t activate it for you.

That is, installers should verify that the GPS and communications functions of the TTU-4530™... - Page 30 5.4.1 Comm Verification Installers should first verify that the TTU-4530™ has been acquired and has registered to the wireless network. This may be verified in one of two ways. First, installers may look at the Comm LED (i.e., the one closest to the SMC antenna connector). If this LED is solid, then the TTU has registered to the network and established a data session.

For further troubleshooting, installers should contact CalAmp Support (M2MSupport@CalAmp.com) 5.4.3 Inbound Verification The last item to verify is that the TTU-4530™ is sending data to the correct server. In general, this is a two-step process that will need the aid of an observer on the back end.
