[[FMB640]] supports Iridium devices which can send short burst data (SBD) to the server. This means that some data can be sent from FM device to the server through satellites.
[[FMB640]] supports Iridium devices which can send short burst data (SBD) to the server. This means that some data can be sent from FM device to the server through satellites.
In order to properly connect the Iridium device to {{{device|}}}, Iridium has to be connected to the device via RS-232 - COM1 or COM2 (with RJ-45 connector, where 4 pin is GND, 5 pin is RS232 Rx and 6 PIN is RS232 Tx). Additionally '''Pin No. 6''' - power control (reference in the image below) must be connected to one of the {{{device|}}} DOUTs (1/2/3/4), in order to allow the device to power ON/OFF Iridium device on demand.
Iridium Edge pinout and RS232 COM 1/2 connection:

When the Iridium edge device is connected '''''Power control DOUT''''' configures DOUT pin which can control Iridium Edge ON/OFF pin. Configure if DOUT pin is connected. Respective power control DOUT to which the Iridium device's ''PIN6'' is connected must be selected.

'''''Save/Send period''''' configures how long will FMB device wait after losing the signal to generate SBD packet. If the signal is not recovered, it will send it indefinitely (or till the SBD Upload limit is reached, if such is set).
