How to Enable GPRS Data on IPLOG-GAMA G2/G3

IPLOG-GAMA G2

The property GPRS data is disabled from the default configuration. However, the system has everything what you need to successfully establish a PPP connection. This allows the IPLOG-GAMA G2 unit access to the mobile Internet.

Open the file /etc/init.d/S41gprs by default text editor Vi.

root@iplog:~# vi /etc/init.d/S41gprs

The file contains two commented lines 45 and 52 (#pon and #poff), delete the comment charakter # before.

The resulting file should look like this:

#!/bin/sh
#
# Starts the GPRS
#

NAME=gprs
CONN=vodafone
PRODUCT=`metel-eeprom -c read product`
PCB_ASS=`metel-eeprom -c read assembly-pcb`

PRODUCT=${PRODUCT##* }
PCB_ASS=${PCB_ASS##* }

Tip:
Text editing - Hit the i (insert mode).
Save and Exit - Write charakter :wq (write and quit). The cursor moves to bottom of screen whenever a colon (:) is typed. This type of command is completed by hitting the Enter key.

It is strongly recommended to do a reboot.
