GPRS Configuration

GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) communication is the main data transmission channel for Rinho devices. It enables sending position reports, status updates, and alerts to tracking servers via 2G/3G/4G networks.

What is it used for?

Use caseDescription
📡 Report transmissionSend GPS positions and events to server
🔄 RedundancyMAIN and BACK channels for high availability
🌍 RoamingSwitch carriers when crossing borders
🔧 FOTARemote firmware updates
📊 TelemetrySend CANBUS data, sensors, etc.

Available Commands


IP Destination Architecture

The system supports 7 IP destinations organized in channels to ensure redundancy:

ChannelDestinationsFunctionPriority
🟢 MAINIP0, IP1, IP3Main reporting channelHigh
🟡 BACKIP4, IP5, IP6Secondary simultaneous channelMedium
🔵 FOTAIP2Reserved for OTA updatesSystem

Automatic redundancy: If IP0 fails, the device tries IP1, then IP3. The BACK channel can simultaneously send to another server for backup.

How does redundancy work?

  1. Active MAIN channel: Device attempts to connect to IP0
  2. If IP0 fails: Automatically tries IP1, then IP3
  3. Parallel BACK channel: Can send copy to IP4/IP5/IP6 simultaneously
  4. Reconnection: When IP0 recovers, returns to main destination
