display orbcomm

Purpose

Displays information about the state of the ORBCOMM® satellite modem.

The state setting is always displayed. When the state setting is disabled, the only information available is whether the device is powered on or not.  When the state setting is enabled, the system attempts to query for several types of information, including the software version of the modem and network readiness.

Note on network readiness

If an ORBCOMM satellite modem attempts to transmit on the ORBCOMM network in a way that is inappropriate, typically because it is not yet provisioned on that network, the network can shut down the modem remotely – and the network readiness value will be FORCED SILENT. When a modem is in this state, the state must be cleared before any transmission will occur, using the orbcomm action=factory command. For more information, see orbcomm.

Required permissions

For Digi products with two or more users, permissions must be set to set permissions display=execute to use this command. See set permissions for details on setting user permissions for commands.
