7.6 GPS Reports Sequence and Timing
GO follows a specific sequence for sending GPS reports to mapping software once GPS coordinates
have been obtained. If the GPS report is unable to be sent to the mapping software, this is the process:
• GO attempts the first of four server addresses setup in its configuration to deliver the GP01
message.
• The device opens a socket on the cellular data connection and sends the report, there is a
ten (10) second timeout applied to this process.
• If the report is unable to be sent then GO disconnects and waits for thirty (30) seconds, and
then attempts to send the report to the next address in the GPS reporting list.
• GO will attempt each of the four (4) available addresses only once.
• It will then obtain new GPS coordinates and restart the reporting process, outlined above.
The sequence of attempted GPS report sends will continue until the device times out or is cancelled
by the user.
Important Note:
Following the first GPS fix being sent, the time it takes to send the updated GPS location is
defined in the configuration, which affects the overall time to send to the mapping software.
