info orbcomm

Purpose

For Digi devices that have an embedded ORBCOMM® satellite modem, this command displays statistics for the satellite modem. The state setting, which shows the current state of the satellite modem, is always displayed. This command returns information of value only when the ORBCOMM device driver for the satellite modem is on.

Statistics that display are gathered since the statistic tables were last cleared by rebooting the Digi device, and include data, event, and error counts. The satellite modem statistics are related to ORBCOMM messaging, and may provide insight into difficulties with and/or operation of the satellite link maintained by the modem. The device driver serial statistics are more interesting for Digi field diagnostics, as the numbers will change in unpredictable ways to most customers, depending on the operation of the device.

To reset the statistics, reboot the device.

Required permissions

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