  • Publication number: 20160094425
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for configuring telematics behavior. The system includes a machine. The machine includes at least one communication module for communication to and from the machine over a network. The machine also includes a memory. The machine further includes a processor configured to receive a telematics behavior configuration file associated with a subscription number, the telematics behavior configuration file comprising at least a file transfer rule for communication over the network. The processor is also configured to store the telematics behavior configuration file in the memory. The processor is further configured to determine whether the network is available and, in response to a determination that the network is available, transfer and receive data over the network according to the telematics behavior configuration file.

  • Publication number: 20050165980
    Abstract: A data transfer system comprising a first bus interface, a second bus interface, a first-in-first-out memory, a controller and a message unit. The message unit is operable to queue a plurality of data transfer request messages from the first bus interface and the second bus interface. The controller is operable to process each data transfer request message and transfer data between the first bus interface, the first-in-first-out memory and the second bus interface. The controller is configured to calculate error detection codes (EDCs) and chain EDC values.

  • Publication number: 20050066045
    Abstract: An integrated network interface device that supports data exchange in two or more high-speed network data transfer protocols that are based on different standards of network data transfer architectures, wherein an incoming data stream formatted in accordance with a particular network data transfer standard is processed into data not subject to the network data transfer standard to be output for further processing by a host. In one aspect, a network interface device is provided with a set of shared or common protocol independent physical link components that are used to identify the operating protocol of the incoming data, and a set of dynamically or statically re-configurable, shared or common protocol independent data transfer processing components that support data exchange via the physical link components for all the supported protocols, which may include a protocol specific link interface for each supported protocol.
