Common Tasks
The examples below are inspired by the Syrus quick reference, filtered and adapted to commands that are implemented in Antares.
Query firmware version
>QVR<
Set the APN
>SRFAinternet.carrier.com<
Configure the SIM PIN
>SRFI1234<
Clear the SIM PIN:
>SRFI<
Restore configuration defaults
>SRT;CONFIG<
Set an output
Turn output 1 on:
>SSSXP11<
Turn output 2 off:
>SSSXP20<
Query ignition status
>QSSF00<
Create a periodic time-and-distance trigger
Example: configure TD0 with a minimum time of 10 seconds, a distance trigger of 500 meters, and
a maximum time of 300 seconds:
>STD00010000005000300<
Create an event
Send a report when ignition turns on:
>SED00NA0;F00+<
Create a turn-by-turn report
Define a 45-degree heading threshold on J00:
>SXAGH0045<
Create an event that reports when J00 becomes active:
>SED44XV0;J00+<
Create a kilometer counter
Configure counter C12 as a distance counter with a 1 km increment:
>SGC12DC0000101000<
Query the current value of the counter:
>QGC12V<
Report a counter value automatically from an event
>SXAEFA,CV12<
>SED22NA0;F00-<
