GPRS connection (ZGPRS2 only)
GPRS (General Packet Radio Service ) connection is required to:
-Send log files via FTP
-Send logs/alarms via email
Without using an Ethernet internet connection.
If only SMS are used, you don’t need to use the GPRS service.
An APN (Access Point Name) that represents the gateway to the internet access must be entered
for GPRS connections.
At the end of each GPRS operation (alarm send or log send) the GPRS connection is disconnected
and only reconnected when necessary to minimize GPRS connection time.
CAUTION!
-Some providers apply connection rates that vary according to the APN used. Contact your
mobile service provider for further information.
-Some internet connection offers are tied to a specific APN. Contact your mobile provider for
further information.
-If internal clock synchronisation is set, an APN must be entered since the synchronised
date/time is obtained via internet connection.
-Mobile providers usually give GPRS data lower priority than voice calls. This means that the
connection could be suddenly interrupted at any time due to voice traffic congestion on a
specific cell. These connection attempts should also be considered when calculating GPRS traffic
costs.
