• DCT Antares SB, 4.2. *ENABLING THE UNIT ON GSM AND GPRS required: The SIM c ard’s user PIN and the cellular operator APN (Access Point Name). 4.2.1 SIM Card’s PIN for GSM registration This parameter is optional because it depends on how the SIM card is con- figured. Most cellular operators distribute no-pin SIM cards so you don’t have to worry about this parameter or you can explicitly set it to “empty” if you are unsure of a previous configuration 4 . But if your SIM card requires a PIN this parameters

• DCT Antares SB, 4.10. USING COUNTERS • Keep on counting (continuous counter). To define a continuous counter: Set the recycle flag to C. The previous illustration shows a continuous counter. • Reset the counter value to zero (recycling counter), creating thus a periodic counter signal. To define a recycling counter: Set the recycle flag to R. See the next illustration of a recycling counter. A counter may be suspended and resumed with the GC command.Use the S and R commands on a previously defined counter. The next graph illustrates this. 92

• DCT Antares SB, 4.14. DRIVING METRICS (ACCELERATION, MAX. SPEED, ETC) Up to 5 heading deltas may be defined. The minimum value for a heading delta is 15 degrees and the maximum is 180. A typical value that suits a turn-by-turn report is 45 degrees. Here is an example of creating a turn-by- turn report using 45 degrees as heading change to trigger event 40: Set a heading delta of 45 degrees: >SXAGH021045< Now a reporting event can be created using the J signal asso c iated with the heading delta we just created: >SED40NV0;J02+< 4.14 Driving Metrics

• DCT Antares SB, 2.2. INPUTS DETECTION 2.2 Inputs detection For the general purpose inputs the electrical conditions are as follows: Logical State Electrical State Active 0V to 1V Inactive 2.9V to 32V or Open A typical input configuration consists of the input connected trough a switch to GND. This makes the input float whenever the switch is off indicating to the unit that the input is open, and makes the input go to 0V when the switch is close indicating an ON condition to the unit. A voltage detection can be used too: • Any voltage

• DCT Antares SB, 1.4. BACK SIDE DESCRIPTION 1.4 Back side description 1.4.1 GSM Antenna connector This is a SMA (Sub Miniature A) connector with a female center contact. Use this connector for the GSM Antenna provided with the unit. 1.4.2 GPS Antenna connector This is a SMA (Sub Miniature A) connector with a male center con- tact 5 .

• DCT Antares SB, 3.14. ANTARES CONFIGURATION TOOL (ACT) In the illustration there are 4 regions already defined. They are displayed in the Regions’ List as a region’s code and name. The name, c ode (same as number), point’s list and sketch correspond to the region highlighted in the Regions’ List (R02: Urban Perimeter in the illustration). Create/Delete a region (Step 1) With these buttons you can create a new region or eliminate the selected region. When a region is created the name ”‘No name”’ is assigned to it and the code corresponds to the next available number in the list. In the illustrationE

CONFIGURING/READING A DISTANCE COUNTER 5.13 Configuring/reading a distance counter Refer to the XACR message. 5.14 Generating an extended-EV report Related commands: ED, EV, XAEF As mentioned on the Reports’ messages section of the Operation chapter, an EV report c an be extended to include extra information tags 6 . To do so, the Message IDs A, B and C of an event definition are used (See the ED message). An event defined with one of thes e letters as Message ID will be transmitted as an EV message with added information after the Source and Age fields. The e

• DCT Antares SB, 3.6. BACK-UP BATTERY >SXAGA02V20000< Create the events associated with signals D01 and D02: >SED21XV0;D01-< >SED23XV0;D02+< These events w ill send the report to the serial port. See the Event Machine section on the Configuration chapter for more information. 3.6 Back-up Battery The Antares SB TM offers the possibility of a built-in back-up Lithium- Polimer battery to be used whenever the main power source (the ve- hicle’s battery) is lost or sabotaged. Not all of the units come with the built-in back-up battery, contact Dig

• DCT Antares SB, 4.6. USING REGIONS (GEO-FENCES) fore the event occurs so the Event Machine can generate the report to a valid group of DPs. The region has to be defined too. To do so, use the GR message. This is the only signal-defining message that requires more than a single command to configure the signal. T his because as specified on the TAIP reference, the GR me ss age defines not a whole region but a region’s single point. One example for the definition of region 26 using three points is: >SGR26001-8021500+025795009999< >SGR26011-8024444+025840550099< >SGR2602U-8017861+025849440001< It is recommended to define regions with the ACT software and not manu- ally.

• DCT Antares SB, 4.10. USING COUNTERS The X next to the V on the setting-value command indicates the counter to preserve its recycling flag: If the letters R or C were used instead of X, the counter will not only change its value but its recycling configuration too. A counter value may be consulted at any time.Use the V command in query form (>QGC00V<). A counter c onfiguration may include an optional delta parameter to make the counter value increment only when the counting variable reaches the delta. This is useful for counting not only seconds but minutes, hours, etc or for d

• DCT Antares SB, 6.9. (GC) COUNTERS, TIMERS, DISTANCERS are not interested on monitoring the C05 signal. We can query the distance counter value at any time: >QGC05V< Ant the unit shall respond: >RGC05V00997< Indicating that the traveled distance since the counter set is 99.7km (997 x 100m). We can als o consult the actual settings of a counter:Example 4 >QGC05< The unit responds with the actual distance counter settings: >RGC05DC0000100100< 156

• DCT Antares SB, 4.5. *EVENT MACHINE events’ definitions of the unit may be consulted with the TAIP message >QED<. This will have the unit deliver the configuration state of all 50 events. An example of the returned configuration on the TAIP console is: >QED< >RED00NV0;A00TD0&F00&+< >RED01NV1;A00!F03&TD1&F00&+< >RED02XM0;F03!TD2&F00&+< >RED03NV2;G00+< >RED04NV0;A00TD3&F00!&+< >RED05NV1;A00!F03&TD3&F00!&+< >RED06XM0;F03!TD3&F00!&+< >RED07NV0;A00U00&+;ACT=SSSU000< >RED08NV1;A00!F03&U00&+;ACT=SSSU000< >RED09U< >RED10NV0;A00U01&+;ACT=SSSU010< >RED11N
