ID Command — Device Identifier

Configure the device ID (identification) as an alphanumeric code of up to 24 characters that is included in all transmitted messages.

What is it for?

The ID command allows you to customize device identification for:

🚚 Fleet organization — Assign IDs by vehicle, route or customer
🔍 Quick identification — Locate devices on your platform
📊 Data filtering — Segment reports by ID
🔗 Integration — Link with external systems

By default, the device adopts the full IMEI (15 digits) of the cellular modem as ID, the first time it obtains it and the ID is still empty.

>RIDFLOTA01;ID=FLOTA01;*3A<  // ✓ Letters+numbers combination

Query current ID


>QID<
>RID974862;ID=974862;*2C<  // Returns current ID

Naming Schemes

Define a consistent scheme to facilitate fleet management.

By fleet


>SIDFL01V01<  // Fleet 01, Vehicle 01
>SIDFL01V02<  // Fleet 01, Vehicle 02
>SIDFL02V01<  // Fleet 02, Vehicle 01

By region


>SIDBSAS001<  // Buenos Aires
>SIDCBA002<   // Córdoba
>SIDMDZ003<   // Mendoza

By customer


>SIDCLI123<   // Customer 123
>SIDCLI124<   // Customer 124

The configured ID is included in all messages transmitted by the device. Make sure it is unique on your platform to avoid conflicts.

Reset Default ID

To return to the original ID (the full IMEI):


// 1. Query IMEI
>QIMEI<
>RIMEI865851037974862;ID=FLOTA01;*4D<  // IMEI = 865851037974862
 
// 2. Configure with the full IMEI
>SID865851037974862<
>RID865851037974862;ID=865851037974862;*7B<  // ✓ ID restored to original value
