GPS "sentences" are collected the from embedded GPS receiver in the Vanguard Cellular Broadband Router. These
sentences are converted into the above formats and are provided to both local and remote delivery services. Two TCP
ports are available for clients to connect to and receive reports at the local or remote reporting rate. Each report from
the TCP ports is terminated with carriage-return/linefeed characters (CRLF). Up to two local UDP Hosts and three
remote UDP Hosts may be specified. Reports are sent as a datagram with no terminating CRLF.
• TAIP Vehicle ID
The TAIP, With ID format allows a report to contain a user-supplied field to identify the sending mobile. This read-
only field, which may contain up to 8 letters or digits (special characters not allowed), is taken from the Unit ID that
can be set from Unit Status » Basic Settings » Unit ID » ID.
Local Delivery
The Vanguard Cellular Broadband Router will produce a report each second and send it to any connected TCP clients
and to the specified UDP hosts. IMPORTANT! Local reports should only be delivered to addresses reachable through
the local LAN or WLAN ports. Sending reports once per second or faster over the cellular network could result in a
congested cellular network and/or extremely large network usage charges.
• TCP Server Format
Reports in the specified format (see the table above) are available to local clients that connect to TCP port 6257 of
the Vanguard Cellular Broadband Router.
• UDP Host (1,2) Format
Reports in the specified format (see the table above) are sent to the specified IP address and port.
Note: Different reports can be directed to the same UDP Host address and port.
• UDP Host (1,2) Address
IP address of the UDP Host in dotted decimal format.
• UDP Host (1,2) Port
IP Port of the UDP Host (1024-65535).
Remote Delivery
The Vanguard Cellular Broadband Router can be configured to report after a certain time or distance.
• Report every ( ) seconds
Triggers the sending of a new remote report if the time since the last remote report exceeds the specified number
of seconds.
• Report every ( ) meters
Triggers the sending of a new remote report if the distance since the last remote report exceeds the specified
distance (in meters).
• But no less than ( ) seconds between reports
To prevent a fast-moving vehicle from reporting too frequently, a lower limit on the time between reports can be
specified.
• TCP Server Format
Reports in the specified format (see the table above) are available to remote clients that connect to TCP port 6258
of the Vanguard Cellular Broadband Router.
