RUTX11: No return SMS on GPS Request

I'm trying to use the option get request the GPS position of my RUTX11 (firmware RUTX_R_00.02.00.2) device via SMS. When GPS is off, I instantly get the reply: "Failed to get GPS coordinates". So far so good and expected. When I switch GPS on I get the correct location on the map in the GUI. But when I send the request SMS I never get the response SMS from the system. Please advise.

Hello,

I was not able to reproduce this issue.

Steps I took:

1. Get GPS fix

2. Send SMS "password gps"

3. Receive SMS with coordinates

4. Disable GPS in General settings and save

5. Send SMS "password gps"

6. Receive SMS "Failed to get GPS coordinates"

7. Enable GPS in General settings and save

8. Send SMS "password gps"

9. Receive SMS with coordinates

Could you write up exact steps it takes you to reproduce this issue?
by anonymous
I can follow your steps. I just never get the coordinates SMS back (step 3&9). Just the failure message (step 6). As a side note,  the 'status' SMS works fine. So in general things seem to be working. I created a new rule for the GPS coordinate. But that also didn't work. Anything else I need to set up apart from enabling GPS? Any logs I can look into to see where things get stuck?

I noticed issues when SMS storage space was fully used, could you check at your side?

Go to Services > Mobile Utilities > Messages > Storage

Check in SIM Card Memory how much space is used and how much is available. If space is fully used, go to Read Messages section, check top most circle to select all messages in this page and delete them.  (I would suggest deleting all of the messages)

Then try getting coordinates again and let me know how it goes.

3/20 SMS were shown in storage. Those were the ones I sent with GPS disabled. When GPS is enabled no SMS are logged in the Read Messages section. I've deleted all SMS. But no change in behavior.

by anonymous

Please, try connecting to the router via SSH and executing command gpsctl -ixta

This will show your routers current coordinates, there is no need to share them with me, just let me know if router shows them accurately?

by anonymous
Yes, this absolutely perfectly show my position and altitude.

I went through the System Log. Following are the log of two messages. First is the SMS for GPS coordinates when GPS is switched off. As you can see the log says a message was sent. Message 2, the same SMS withGPS turned on. See that no sent message appears, also the check rule block is missing. So it seems that something fails after EXECUTING GPS COORDINATES.

Could you, please, factory reset the router and test SMS utilities and GPS with fresh configuration?




















 












by 
anonymous













That I actually what I did before submitting this question. A factory reset didn't help.




















 












by 
anonymous













I again reset to factory settings. No change in behavior.




















 












by 
anonymous
















Please repeat SMS command a few times (Make sure GPS fix is acquired) and generate a troubleshoot file by going to System > Administration > Troubleshoot and send it to me via a Private message for analysis.

Hi I have updated to the latest firmware and have the same issue with no reply from SMS for GPS coordinates. I have checked the log and the SMS was received. Any ideas ?
