The Commands module configures remote commands and sends them from the platform to the tracking devices installed in vehicles. A typical example is an engine block/unblock command, wired to a vehicle relay through a device output.

18.1 Creating and Sending a Command

  1. Click + Add Command and enter the command name and its command data string.
  2. Check that the syntax matches the protocol and firmware of the device model.
  3. Click Assign to attach the command to specific units. You can also assign supported commands from Trackers → Unit Settings → Commands.
  4. Send assigned commands from the Monitoring module.

IMPORTANT Commands depend on the device model. A command with the wrong syntax for the device protocol or firmware will not work as intended.
