10.5 Device Settings

Device Expenses Types

Navigate to Settings -> device -> Device Expenses Types to be able to add an expense type for the device and click on the add button.

Within the menu, enter the manufacturer and the model of the device.
For the SMS commands, select the "+" icon and type in the required command to configure the device. If the device requires more than one command to be configured and in a specific order, press the "+" button again and another line for the commands will be added. Add as many command lines as necessary for the device. The order in which the commands will be sent is from top to bottom.
When adding the commands to the list, instead of using the actual APN names and IP addresses, include the variables as the system automatically recognizes the APN configurations and the IP address.

APN variables:

• %APNNAME% - This is the APN name of the SIM data provider.
• %APNUSERNAME%, %APNPASSWORD% - These are usernames and passwords for the APN. If the data carrier does not require login credentials, these will be sent blank by the system.

IP Address variable:

• %IP% - The system automatically inputs Your server IP address into the configuration.
   

Once the details are entered, select "Save" and the recently added manufacturer with the commands will be added to the list.
