Set up APN for GPRS Service
Access Point Name (APN) is a protocol that typically allows a user's device to access the internet using the mobile phone
network. It is a network identifier used by a mobile device when connecting to a GSM carrier. The carrier will then examine
this identifier to determine what type of network connection should be created.
For uploading the data to a web server, a set of GPRS APN from your GSM network is required. Various GSM network
provides different GPRS APN settings. Please ask your GMS carrier about the APN settings. If the user name and password
of APN are indefinite or showed in blank, just leave the parameters empty (no space). User can follow the Setup Format

1. HTTP: Hypertext Transfer Protocol. An internet browser based server protocol that usually has a specified URL (Uniform
Resource Locator).
2. TCP/IP: Transmission Control Protocol. An OSI Transport layer protocol that has more complex frame structure, higher
reliability but slower processing speed than UDP/IP.
3. UDP/IP: User Datagram Protocol. An OSI Transport layer protocol that has faster processing than TCP/IP but does not
guarantee data delivery.
4. SMS: The DEVICE will send GPS data by SMS message format to Cellular phone.
User can choose the route to transmit the data by HTTP/TCP/UDP protocol individually or with SMS message as a backup
