Hello,
The current connection duration is hardcoded into the implementation in the SMPP functionality and cannot be modified.
The package is written by Teltonika development team, thus no documentation is available.
Teltonika device acts as an SMS gateway and its functionality is limited to simply sending SMS messages, as discussed in your referenced thread.
Additional options to set connection keepalive time should be included in the 7.3 firmware, however, no date is set for the release yet.
Best regards,
Žygimantas
