5. Assign devices to Client account in DMP.

6. Send credentials to Client.

1.1. Check if a device is officially supported by DMP HERE. In case a device is not supported by DMP, then inform the requester accordingly.

1.2. Update a device FW to the latest officially supported FW. DMP is supported from FW versions 00.06.18.32 (including this version). It is important to update devices to the latest officially released firmware (from this page).

sr=Ruptela-DMP.azure-devices.net/devices/e731388f-2817-4805-a979-3da6152e6f30&sig=Hu%2BlwvgJeD5RO0NJuOIHZ28TeuBEIPCV50ftSRefiwY%3D&se=3778057488","device":{"id":385,"name":"M2102M1E8_202109021210","clientName":"Ruptela UAB","imei":867035049959396,"created":"2021-09-02T09:10:43.582031"}}

3. Send SAS tokens to the devices

3.1. Prepare an SMS command.

Command format: pass setsastoken <uuid>

Example without password:

setsastoken e731388f-2817-4805-a979-3da6152e6f30&sig=Hu%2BlwvgJeD5RO0NJuOIHZ28TeuBEIPCV50ftSRefiwY%3D&se=3778057488

3.2. Send SAS tokens to devices via SMS.

After the SMS command is successfully received, you should get a reply “OK”.

For that purpose you can use our TT admin SMS sending tool:

Send the SMS command: pass dmpfconnect

NOTE: from FW 00.06.19.55 onwards, a device immediately initiates dmpfconnect after getting a SAS token

3.4. Check if a device received the “Last time connected“ update.
