command, and the modem appears to 'hang' when you issue the command, it is probably due to flow control configuration. The default state for the RockBLOCK and RockBLOCK+ units has flow control turned ON in the modem. When running in 3-wire serial mode, flow control should be turned OFF, which will ensure you get responses to your requests. Use the command AT\u0026amp;K0 at the start of your command sequence. This turns flow control off, and should solve the problem.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does it work?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e RockBLOCK uses the Iridium Satellite network. Specifically, it uses an Iridium service called ‘Short Burst Data’ (SBD). There’s some official info here. At the heart of RockBLOCK is an Iridium 9602 modem. The RockBLOCK hosts the 9602 and provides it with an antenna, and its power supply requirements. It exposes the modem’s serial interface via USB (or directly – PCB assembly version only). Full documentation for the 9602 modem can be found here: Iridium 9602 SBD Transceiver Product Developers Guide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is it powered?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e RockBLOCK takes its power from the direct header connector, or alternatively via the optional FTDI\/USB adaptor. If you’re using the PCB assembly version with a direct header, your host needs to supply a minimum of 100mA @ 5V.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much data can I send\/receive\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e 340 bytes FROM RockBLOCK. 270 bytes TO RockBLOCK.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow quickly can I send a message?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Testing shows that it generally takes around 20 seconds from power-up to successful transmission, with a perfect view of the sky.

It‚Äôs invisaged that if you want position reports, you would use an off-the-shelf GPS module with your solution, and get position data from that. However, it is worth noting that with each Iridium transmission we do get an approximate position report - this varies in accuracy from 100km to 1km, and therefore cannot be relied upon for very accurate tracking, but RockBLOCK does provide this information for you (along with the approximate accuracy, 'CEP' in km) with your messages. If you are looking for a dedicated tracking satellite tracking device, then you might want to consider our RockSTAR product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIf I have a whole set of RockBLOCK's, how does billing work?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Billing is flexible, and allows you to pay only when you are using your devices. Line rental is sold in one-month blocks, and credits are bought in packs. If you have several RockBLOCKs, credits are shared from a credit pool amongst all your devices and you don't need to buy separate packs of credits for each device. Similarly, if only some of your devices are being used at any one time, you don't need to pay for line-rental on those which aren't in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cscript type=\"text\/javascript\" async=\"\" src=\"\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/js-init\/1d61f2beb014840140.js\"\u003e\u003c\/script\u003e","published_at":"2018-03-07T21:31:04-08:00","created_at":"2018-03-07T21:31:05-08:00","vendor":"Rock Seven","type":"Satellite Communicator","tags":["Brand_Rock Seven","Coverage Area_True Global","Network_Iridium","Type_Modem"],"price":42000,"price_min":42000,"price_max":42000,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":12227345055786,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"RBLK-9603","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"RockBLOCK 9603 Satellite Communication Device","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":42000,"weight":2268,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":""}],"images":["\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/RockBlock9603-ProductFeature.jpg?v=1572825977","\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/RockBlock9603-DeviceImage1.jpg?v=1572825977"],"featured_image":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/RockBlock9603-ProductFeature.jpg?v=1572825977","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"RockBLOCK 9603 Satellite Communication Device - Apollo Satellite","id":2014068506666,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.889,"height":1200,"width":1067,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/RockBlock9603-ProductFeature.jpg?v=1569353523"},"aspect_ratio":0.889,"height":1200,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/RockBlock9603-ProductFeature.jpg?v=1569353523","width":1067},{"alt":"RockBLOCK 9603 Satellite Communication Device - Apollo Satellite","id":2014068539434,"position":2,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.889,"height":1200,"width":1067,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/RockBlock9603-DeviceImage1.jpg?v=1569353523"},"aspect_ratio":0.889,"height":1200,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/RockBlock9603-DeviceImage1.jpg?v=1569353523","width":1067}],"content":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eRockBLOCK 9603 Satellite Communication Device\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe RockBLOCK 9603 Satellite Communication Device allows you to send and receive short messages from anywhere on Earth with a clear view of the sky.

is internally pulled high on the RockBLOCK and RockBLOCK+ products, so you can leave it disconnected if you want to leave the modem 'awake' all of the time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo turn 'off' the modem, pull the line to ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUnit refuses to give me data using the SBDRT command?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e If you are using the SBDRT command, and the modem appears to 'hang' when you issue the command, it is probably due to flow control configuration. The default state for the RockBLOCK and RockBLOCK+ units has flow control turned ON in the modem. When running in 3-wire serial mode, flow control should be turned OFF, which will ensure you get responses to your requests. Use the command AT\u0026amp;K0 at the start of your command sequence. This turns flow control off, and should solve the problem.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does it work?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e RockBLOCK uses the Iridium Satellite network. Specifically, it uses an Iridium service called ‘Short Burst Data’ (SBD). There’s some official info here. At the heart of RockBLOCK is an Iridium 9602 modem. The RockBLOCK hosts the 9602 and provides it with an antenna, and its power supply requirements. It exposes the modem’s serial interface via USB (or directly – PCB assembly version only). Full documentation for the 9602 modem can be found here: Iridium 9602 SBD Transceiver Product Developers Guide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is it powered?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e RockBLOCK takes its power from the direct header connector, or alternatively via the optional FTDI\/USB adaptor. If you’re using the PCB assembly version with a direct header, your host needs to supply a minimum of 100mA @ 5V.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much data can I send\/receive\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e 340 bytes FROM RockBLOCK. 270 bytes TO RockBLOCK.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow quickly can I send a message?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Testing shows that it generally takes around 20 seconds from power-up to successful transmission, with a perfect view of the sky. With a very restricted view, it may take several minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow frequently can I send a message?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e You should be able to complete an Iridium SBD session roughly every 10 seconds, assuming a perfect view of the sky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I connect an external antenna?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Yes, there is a version of the RockBLOCK available with an SMA connector (instead of the built-on antenna) which allows you to attach an external Iridium antenna.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo you have USB drivers for my XYZ platform?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Almost certainly. If you have purchased the optional FTDI-USB adaptor then you will need to install the FTDI drivers. You can check on their website (http:\/\/www.ftdichip.com\/FTDrivers.htm), where you will find drivers for Linux, Mac, Windows, Android and others.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat about software?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The RockBLOCK appears as a serial interface, and you can talk to it using a simple set of AT commands. It is expected that you'll be able to integrate it into your own software with minimal effort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCould you give us some sample code to get started?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThere is a Node.js library available and an Arduino library which you can get via the \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/rock7.com\/products-rockblock\"\u003eRockBLOCK page\u003c\/a\u003e - There is also an excellent Python project for Raspberry Pi, which would make a great starting point for any Raspberry Pi users \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.makersnake.com\/rockblock\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003ewhich can be found here\u003c\/a\u003e - Rock Seven is working on publishing some samples for other languages as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do my messages get back to me (on Earth)?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"vc_toggle_content\" style=\"display: block;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMessages sent from RockBLOCK can either be delivered to your chosen email address, or sent to your own web service as a simple HTTP POST.

The message is queued on the satellite network almost instantly, ready for RockBLOCK to download (on your command).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes RockBLOCK get notification of a new message waiting?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eYes, as long as you configure it correctly. Check the 9602 documentation for the 'Ring Alert' feature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow Rugged\/Waterproof is it really?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Very! The RockBLOCK+ is a completely encapsulated design, so it is at least IP68 (submersible for extended periods). Just don't expect it to send messages from under water!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I get positions with my messages?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe RockBLOCK does not have a GPS chip inside it. It‚Äôs invisaged that if you want position reports, you would use an off-the-shelf GPS module with your solution, and get position data from that. However, it is worth noting that with each Iridium transmission we do get an approximate position report - this varies in accuracy from 100km to 1km, and therefore cannot be relied upon for very accurate tracking, but RockBLOCK does provide this information for you (along with the approximate accuracy, 'CEP' in km) with your messages. If you are looking for a dedicated tracking satellite tracking device, then you might want to consider our RockSTAR product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIf I have a whole set of RockBLOCK's, how does billing work?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Billing is flexible, and allows you to pay only when you are using your devices. Line rental is sold in one-month blocks, and credits are bought in packs. If you have several RockBLOCKs, credits are shared from a credit pool amongst all your devices and you don't need to buy separate packs of credits for each device. Similarly, if only some of your devices are being used at any one time, you don't need to pay for line-rental on those which aren't in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cscript type=\"text\/javascript\" async=\"\" src=\"\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/js-init\/1d61f2beb014840140.js\"\u003e\u003c\/script\u003e"}

signal is internally pulled high on the RockBLOCK and RockBLOCK+ products, so you can leave it disconnected if you want to leave the modem 'awake' all of the time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo turn 'off' the modem, pull the line to ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUnit refuses to give me data using the SBDRT command?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e If you are using the SBDRT command, and the modem appears to 'hang' when you issue the command, it is probably due to flow control configuration. The default state for the RockBLOCK and RockBLOCK+ units has flow control turned ON in the modem. When running in 3-wire serial mode, flow control should be turned OFF, which will ensure you get responses to your requests. Use the command AT\u0026amp;K0 at the start of your command sequence. This turns flow control off, and should solve the problem.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does it work?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e RockBLOCK uses the Iridium Satellite network. Specifically, it uses an Iridium service called ‘Short Burst Data’ (SBD). There’s some official info here. At the heart of RockBLOCK is an Iridium 9602 modem. The RockBLOCK hosts the 9602 and provides it with an antenna, and its power supply requirements. It exposes the modem’s serial interface via USB (or directly – PCB assembly version only). Full documentation for the 9602 modem can be found here: Iridium 9602 SBD Transceiver Product Developers Guide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is it powered?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e RockBLOCK takes its power from the direct header connector, or alternatively via the optional FTDI\/USB adaptor. If you’re using the PCB assembly version with a direct header, your host needs to supply a minimum of 100mA @ 5V.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much data can I send\/receive\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e 340 bytes FROM RockBLOCK. 270 bytes TO RockBLOCK.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow quickly can I send a message?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Testing shows that it generally takes around 20 seconds from power-up to successful transmission, with a perfect view of the sky. With a very restricted view, it may take several minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow frequently can I send a message?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e You should be able to complete an Iridium SBD session roughly every 10 seconds, assuming a perfect view of the sky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I connect an external antenna?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Yes, there is a version of the RockBLOCK available with an SMA connector (instead of the built-on antenna) which allows you to attach an external Iridium antenna.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo you have USB drivers for my XYZ platform?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Almost certainly. If you have purchased the optional FTDI-USB adaptor then you will need to install the FTDI drivers. You can check on their website (http:\/\/www.ftdichip.com\/FTDrivers.htm), where you will find drivers for Linux, Mac, Windows, Android and others.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat about software?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The RockBLOCK appears as a serial interface, and you can talk to it using a simple set of AT commands.

Check the 9602 documentation for the 'Ring Alert' feature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow Rugged\/Waterproof is it really?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Very! The RockBLOCK+ is a completely encapsulated design, so it is at least IP68 (submersible for extended periods). Just don't expect it to send messages from under water!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I get positions with my messages?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe RockBLOCK does not have a GPS chip inside it. It‚Äôs invisaged that if you want position reports, you would use an off-the-shelf GPS module with your solution, and get position data from that. However, it is worth noting that with each Iridium transmission we do get an approximate position report - this varies in accuracy from 100km to 1km, and therefore cannot be relied upon for very accurate tracking, but RockBLOCK does provide this information for you (along with the approximate accuracy, 'CEP' in km) with your messages. If you are looking for a dedicated tracking satellite tracking device, then you might want to consider our RockSTAR product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIf I have a whole set of RockBLOCK's, how does billing work?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Billing is flexible, and allows you to pay only when you are using your devices. Line rental is sold in one-month blocks, and credits are bought in packs. If you have several RockBLOCKs, credits are shared from a credit pool amongst all your devices and you don't need to buy separate packs of credits for each device. Similarly, if only some of your devices are being used at any one time, you don't need to pay for line-rental on those which aren't in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cscript type=\"text\/javascript\" async=\"\" src=\"\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/js-init\/1d61f2beb014840140.js\"\u003e\u003c\/script\u003e","published_at":"2018-03-07T21:34:02-08:00","created_at":"2018-03-07T21:34:05-08:00","vendor":"Rock Seven","type":"Satellite Tracking","tags":["Brand_Rock Seven","Coverage Area_True Global","Network_Iridium","Type_Modem"],"price":51500,"price_min":51500,"price_max":51500,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":12227402956842,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"RCK-BLK","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"RockBLOCK Satellite Communication Device","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":51500,"weight":907,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":""}],"images":["\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/RockBLOCK-ProductFeature_b3d73287-98db-4dc1-a33f-d2609f72d224.jpg?v=1572825979","\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/RockBLOCK-DeviceImage1-1.jpg?v=1572825979","\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/RockBLOCK-DeviceImage2.jpg?v=1572825979","\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/RockBLOCK-DeviceImage3.jpg?v=1572825979"],"featured_image":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/RockBLOCK-ProductFeature_b3d73287-98db-4dc1-a33f-d2609f72d224.jpg?v=1572825979","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"RockBLOCK Satellite Communication Device - Apollo Satellite","id":2014085873706,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.889,"height":1200,"width":1067,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/RockBLOCK-ProductFeature_b3d73287-98db-4dc1-a33f-d2609f72d224.jpg?v=1569353544"},"aspect_ratio":0.889,"height":1200,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/RockBLOCK-ProductFeature_b3d73287-98db-4dc1-a33f-d2609f72d224.jpg?v=1569353544","width":1067},{"alt":"RockBLOCK Satellite Communication Device - Apollo Satellite","id":2014085906474,"position":2,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.889,"height":1200,"width":1067,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/RockBLOCK-DeviceImage1-1.jpg?v=1569353544"},"aspect_ratio":0.889,"height":1200,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/RockBLOCK-DeviceImage1-1.jpg?v=1569353544","width":1067},{"alt":"RockBLOCK Satellite Communication Device - Apollo Satellite","id":2014085939242,"position":3,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.889,"height":1200,"width":1067,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/RockBLOCK-DeviceImage2.jpg?v=1569353544"},"aspect_ratio":0.889,"height":1200,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/RockBLOCK-DeviceImage2.jpg?v=1569353544","width":1067},{"alt":"RockBLOCK Satellite Communication Device - Apollo Satellite","id":2014085972010,"position":4,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.889,"height":1200,"width":1067,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/RockBLOCK-DeviceImage3.jpg?v=1569353544"},"aspect_ratio":0.889,"height":1200,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/RockBLOCK-DeviceImage3.jpg?v=1569353544","width":1067}],"content":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eRockBLOCK Satellite Communication Device\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe RockBLOCK Mk2 allows you to send and receive short messages from anywhere on Earth with a clear view of the sky.

SBDRT command, and the modem appears to 'hang' when you issue the command, it is probably due to flow control configuration. The default state for the RockBLOCK and RockBLOCK+ units has flow control turned ON in the modem. When running in 3-wire serial mode, flow control should be turned OFF, which will ensure you get responses to your requests. Use the command AT\u0026amp;K0 at the start of your command sequence. This turns flow control off, and should solve the problem.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does it work?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e RockBLOCK uses the Iridium Satellite network. Specifically, it uses an Iridium service called ‘Short Burst Data’ (SBD). There’s some official info here. At the heart of RockBLOCK is an Iridium 9602 modem. The RockBLOCK hosts the 9602 and provides it with an antenna, and its power supply requirements. It exposes the modem’s serial interface via USB (or directly – PCB assembly version only). Full documentation for the 9602 modem can be found here: Iridium 9602 SBD Transceiver Product Developers Guide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is it powered?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e RockBLOCK takes its power from the direct header connector, or alternatively via the optional FTDI\/USB adaptor.

However, it is worth noting that with each Iridium transmission we do get an approximate position report - this varies in accuracy from 100km to 1km, and therefore cannot be relied upon for very accurate tracking, but RockBLOCK does provide this information for you (along with the approximate accuracy, 'CEP' in km) with your messages.

Line rental is sold in one-month blocks, and credits are bought in packs. If you have several RockBLOCKs, credits are shared from a credit pool amongst all your devices and you don't need to buy separate packs of credits for each device. Similarly, if only some of your devices are being used at any one time, you don't need to pay for line-rental on those which aren't in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cscript type=\"text\/javascript\" async=\"\" src=\"\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/js-init\/1d61f2beb014840140.js\"\u003e\u003c\/script\u003e"}

Specifically, it uses an Iridium service called ‘Short Burst Data’ (SBD). There’s some official info here. At the heart of YB3 is an Iridium 9602 modem.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the YB3 send email or SMS messages?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Yes, you can use the device to send\/receive short messages - either using the device itself, with preset messages, or by linking with an iPhone\/iPad\/Android device to send custom messages. Messages sent from the device itself are always sent to the group of people you nominate in the management system - i.e. any message will be sent to all configured responders, you can't choose a specific person. Messages sent via the Bluetooth link (using the Messenger\/Connect app) can be sent to any destination, either e-mail address or cell\/mobile phone number. In all cases, people can reply to those messages, via e-mail or SMS, and the messages will come back to either the device or the Messenger app respectively.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the unit work indoors?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e As with all satellite-based devices, the better view of the sky the unit has, the better it will perform. YB3 units use two sets of satellites - GPS satellites in order to get a position fix, and Iridium satellites to transmit that position back to base. The GPS signal is weaker than the Iridium signal. Typically, if the YB3 is near to a window inside then it may be able to obtain a GPS fix and transmit, although it will take longer than normal, and will therefore use more battery power. If the unit is deep inside a building then it is unlikely to be able to get a fix or transmit very well, and will therefore use up a lot of battery quite quickly. However, we have had devices transmit successfully from inside caves, fridges, under the seats of cars etc... it is possible, just not guaranteed, and not as reliable as usual. As a rule, the better view of the sky you can provide for the YB3, the better it will perform, and the longer the battery will last.\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2018-03-07T21:34:32-08:00","created_at":"2018-03-07T21:34:36-08:00","vendor":"Yellowbrick","type":"Satellite Communicator","tags":["Brand_Yellow Brick","Coverage Area_True Global","Feature_Bluetooth","Feature_Waterproof","Network_Iridium","Satellite Communicator","Satellite Tracking","Type_Communicator","YB3"],"price":54995,"price_min":54995,"price_max":54995,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":12227410034730,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"YB3-SCD","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"YB3 Satellite Communication Device","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":54995,"weight":907,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":""}],"images":["\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/YB3-ProductFeature.jpg?v=1572826012","\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/YB3-DeviceImage1.jpg?v=1572826012","\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/YB3-DeviceImage2.jpg?v=1572826012","\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/YB3-DeviceImage3.jpg?v=1572826012","\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/YB3-DeviceImage4.jpg?v=1572826012","\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/YB3-DeviceImage5.jpg?v=1572826012"],"featured_image":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/YB3-ProductFeature.jpg?v=1572826012","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"YB3 Satellite Communication Device - Apollo Satellite","id":2014087282730,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.889,"height":1200,"width":1067,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/YB3-ProductFeature.jpg?v=1569353544"},"aspect_ratio":0.889,"height":1200,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/YB3-ProductFeature.jpg?v=1569353544","width":1067},{"alt":"YB3 Satellite Communication Device - Apollo Satellite","id":2014087315498,"position":2,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.889,"height":1200,"width":1067,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/YB3-DeviceImage1.jpg?v=1569353544"},"aspect_ratio":0.889,"height":1200,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/YB3-DeviceImage1.jpg?v=1569353544","width":1067},{"alt":"YB3 Satellite Communication Device - Apollo Satellite","id":2014087348266,"position":3,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.889,"height":1200,"width":1067,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/YB3-DeviceImage2.jpg?v=1569353544"},"aspect_ratio":0.889,"height":1200,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/YB3-DeviceImage2.jpg?v=1569353544","width":1067},{"alt":"YB3 Satellite Communication Device - Apollo Satellite","id":2014087381034,"position":4,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.889,"height":1200,"width":1067,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/YB3-DeviceImage3.jpg?v=1569353544"},"aspect_ratio":0.889,"height":1200,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/YB3-DeviceImage3.jpg?v=1569353544","width":1067},{"alt":"YB3 Satellite Communication Device - Apollo Satellite","id":2014087413802,"position":5,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.889,"height":1200,"width":1067,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/YB3-DeviceImage4.jpg?v=1569353544"},"aspect_ratio":0.889,"height":1200,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/YB3-DeviceImage4.jpg?v=1569353544","width":1067},{"alt":"YB3 Satellite Communication Device - Apollo Satellite","id":2014087446570,"position":6,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.889,"height":1200,"width":1067,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/YB3-DeviceImage5.jpg?v=1569353544"},"aspect_ratio":0.889,"height":1200,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2962\/4800\/products\/YB3-DeviceImage5.jpg?v=1569353544","width":1067}],"content":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eYB3 Satellite Communication Device\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe YB3 automatically sends your position, and allows you to send and receive short messages from anywhere on Earth with a clear view of the sky.

Specifically, it uses an Iridium service called ‘Short Burst Data’ (SBD). There’s some official info here. At the heart of YB3 is an Iridium 9602 modem.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the YB3 send email or SMS messages?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Yes, you can use the device to send\/receive short messages - either using the device itself, with preset messages, or by linking with an iPhone\/iPad\/Android device to send custom messages. Messages sent from the device itself are always sent to the group of people you nominate in the management system - i.e. any message will be sent to all configured responders, you can't choose a specific person. Messages sent via the Bluetooth link (using the Messenger\/Connect app) can be sent to any destination, either e-mail address or cell\/mobile phone number. In all cases, people can reply to those messages, via e-mail or SMS, and the messages will come back to either the device or the Messenger app respectively.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the unit work indoors?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e As with all satellite-based devices, the better view of the sky the unit has, the better it will perform. YB3 units use two sets of satellites - GPS satellites in order to get a position fix, and Iridium satellites to transmit that position back to base. The GPS signal is weaker than the Iridium signal. Typically, if the YB3 is near to a window inside then it may be able to obtain a GPS fix and transmit, although it will take longer than normal, and will therefore use more battery power. If the unit is deep inside a building then it is unlikely to be able to get a fix or transmit very well, and will therefore use up a lot of battery quite quickly. However, we have had devices transmit successfully from inside caves, fridges, under the seats of cars etc... it is possible, just not guaranteed, and not as reliable as usual. As a rule, the better view of the sky you can provide for the YB3, the better it will perform, and the longer the battery will last.\u003c\/p\u003e"}
