Configuring Mobile Terminated (Incoming) Message Checks
To configure scheduling of incoming message handling, select the “Message” entry under the
Iridium entry on the Setup tab and press the “Edit” button. The following dialog will appear.
Figure 5: Iridium Message Settings
There are three ways the system can be told to look for and handle incoming messages:
•
Scheduled Message Checks
•
Powered-on “Listen” Periods
•
Manual message check
Scheduled Message Checks
The Message Interval property defines how often to look to see if an incoming message is
waiting to be processed. For example, if Message Interval is “01:00:00”, then Xpert will look
every hour to see if a message is waiting. If a message is waiting, it is retrieved and processed.
Note: scheduled message checks cost money (when not performed as part of a transmission)!
Even if a message is not waiting to be processed, you are charged for the message check.
