TAT100 SMS/GPRS Commands

Main Page > Autonomous Trackers > TAT100 > TAT100 Manual > TAT100 SMS/GPRS Commands

All commands are case sensitive. When a user tries to send an SMS/GPRS message to TAT100, most of the time it cannot arrive because the GSM/GPRS module is disabled between sending of records. The device will receive the SMS/GPRS message when it wakes up to send a record according to the configured tracking period or scheduled time. In order to quickly execute the SMS/GPRS command and receive a response, the user should send the message immediately after receiving a tracking record.

SMS command structure:

<SMS login><space><SMS password><space><command><space><value>

SMS command getinfo example:

  • If you have set SMS login and password: login pass getinfo
  • If SMS login and password are not set leave two spaces before command:   getinfo


GPRS commands require Codec 12 protocol.
