12. For Outgoing message type, select either NMEAor TAIP for the type of message that the
device will forward to a remote host.
(Optional) If NMEA is selected:
a. Select a Talker ID.
The talker IDis a two-character prefix in the NMEAmessage that identifies the source
type. The talker ID set here will override the talker ID from all sources, and all forwarded
sentences will use the configured ID. The default setting is Default, which means that the
talker ID provided by the source will be used.
b. Determine the Behavior when fix is invalid:
n None: No messages are sent.
n Empty: Send messages with empty fields.
n Last fix: Send messages with information from the last valid fix.
13. (Optional) For Prepend text, enter text to prepend to the forwarded message. Two variables
can be included in the prepended text:
n %s: Includes the Connect EZ device's serial number in the prepended text.
n %v: Includes the vehicle ID in the prepended text.
For example, to include both the device's serial number and vehicle ID in the prepend message,
you can enter the following in the Prepend field:
__|%s|__|%v|__
14. Type a four-digit alphanumeric Vehicle ID that will be included with to location messages. If no
vehicle ID is configured, this setting defaults to 0000.
