The installer will need to verify with a backend technician that the, URL (myURL.myCompany.com ), IP 

address (ddd.ddd.ddd.ddd) and port (<ppppp>) are correct. 

The second step is to verify that the 4530™ is sending data. The best way to do this is to force the 

4530™ to send in an unacknowledged Event Report (i.e., its current GPS location) with the following 

command: 

AT$APP PEG SUNRPT 255 

 

The 4530™ will respond with: OK 

The backend monitor must then be contacted to confirm that they received an Event Report with Event 

Code 255. 

Assuming that all three sections have passed, the installation can be considered to be complete. 

The current Comm, GPS and Inbound status of a GSM LMU can be obtained via SMS provided you 

have access to an SMS capable phone or PDA. 

Using your handset, send the following SMS Message to the LMU: 

!R0 

 

Within a few minutes, the LMU should return a response in the following format: 

APP: <App ID><Firmware Version> 

COM:<RSSI> [./d/D][./a/A][./L][IP address] [<APN>] 

GPS:[Antenna <Short/Open/Off>] | [No Time Sync] | [<FixStatus><Sat 

Count>] 

INP:<inputs states><vehicle voltage> 

MID:<mobile ID><mobile ID type> 

INB:<inbound IP address>:<inbound port><Inbound Protocol (LMD/LMX)>
