Globalstar Axonn SmartOne, MMT, SPOT and AxTracker setup

Axonn sends back data over the Globalstar satellite network; it does not use mobile networks like GSM or CDMA. This means it can be used anywhere outdoors.

To install it, follow these steps:

  1. Add your asset using the + Asset button 

OR add your asset using the Custom asset option:

  1. Select the correct protocol 
  2. Fill in all the required details 
  3. Use the provided  hostname to send data from the Service to GpsGate 
  4. Save your new asset 

FTP Transfer Setup - onPrem only 

The following method is for on-premise installations. For hosted servers, contact support.

If you use an FTP transfer setup, where the Globalstar / SmartONE gateway transfers messages using FTP to your server, please use the following guidelines:

1. Install the Axonn plugin.

2. Create the folder C:\GpsGateServer\AxonnFTP on your Windows Server

3. Configure your FTP server to receive files from the Globalstar gateway to this folder.

4. Execute the following SQL queries:

DELETE FROM outgoing_web_service WHERE namespace = 'Axonn.File';

INSERT INTO outgoing_web_service (namespace, url, call_interval)
VALUES ('Axonn.File', 'C:\\GpsGateServer\\AxonnFTP', 60);

5. Restart the NMEA Service under Windows Server
