1 Piece Tracking Device 4 with Beacon Overview

Attenti’s One-Piece GPS Offender Tracking Device 4 (TD4) utilizes GPS satellites to establish an offender’s location and uses cellular networks to transmit the location data to Attenti. It is a

one-piece device that is worn on an offender’s ankle and is able to function in active and passive mode.

The Beacon is an optional home unit placed in an offender’s home which communicates with a 1 Piece through radio frequency. This ensures the offender is within range of the Beacon during a scheduled home curfew. The home unit will also act as a beacon to display when the offender is in the “home” or “away” status.

1 Piece (TD4) Operating Features

Battery Life: The device should be given a full charge (4.2 volts) to supply a full day of battery life. It takes approximately 2 to 2 ½ hours to acquire a full charge. The battery will last approximately 24-30 hours if fully charged. The daily life of the battery is dependent upon the call-in interval of the device, how often it goes to rest, and how many violations are created. The battery must be charged each day in order to continue to track your offender’s locations.

Note: Battery tests are conducted using specific Attenti devices in controlled testing environments. Actual performance and results may be affected by cellular network, location, signal strength, feature configuration, usage, and many other factors. Battery life and charge cycles vary by use and settings.

Vibrate feature: The 1 Piece (TD4) device will vibrate upon violation and when the device receives an alert from the officer. If the offender causes a violation, the 1 Piece (TD4) will vibrate three times consecutively and once every ten minutes until they clear the violation.

If the officer sends the offender a notification (an alert) to contact them, the 1 Piece (TD4) will vibrate for ten consecutive seconds. As soon as the offender acknowledges the notification, the vibration will stop. All three LED lights will be flashing red to indicate that the offender needs to acknowledge the officer’s notification. If the offender doesn’t acknowledge the notification, then every ten minutes it will vibrate once until they acknowledge the notification.

Storing GPS Points: The 1 Piece (TD4) will store an offender’s location (GPS point) when in motion (moving) every minute. If the 1 Piece (TD4) does not experience any motion for two consecutive minutes, the 1 Piece (TD4) will go to “rest” and collect a GPS point every hour instead of each minute. As soon as any motion is generated, the 1 Piece (TD4) will resume recording points on a minute-to-minute basis. However, if the offender causes a geographic zone violation, the 1 Piece (TD4) will begin to store a point every 15 seconds.

Call-in intervals: The 1 Piece (TD4) will contact Attenti every hour while in active mode and every six hours while in passive mode. While in active mode, it will also contact Attenti immediately upon violation.

Automatic Redial: If the 1 Piece (TD4) is unable to communicate with Attenti because of poor cellular coverage, it will continue to try to call and download its information until it is successful.

Waterproof: The 1 Piece (TD4) is waterproof down to 66 feet.

1 Piece (TD4) Operating Features, Cont.

Rubber strap: The 1 Piece (TD4) strap is designed to last nine months to one year.

Magnetized Charger: The 1 Piece (TD4) has a magnetized charger to prevent an accidental

disconnect when the battery is being recharged.

1 Piece (TD4) Operating Features

Communication

The 1 Piece (TD4) has a SIM card, which is similar to the data transmitter/receiver found in most cellular phones. The 1 Piece (TD4) uses the SIM card to transmit and download the GPS points it has received to Attenti’s servers. The call-in intervals vary, depending on whether or not the 1 Piece (TD4) is in active mode or passive mode. The differences between the two modes are explained below:

Active Mode:

• The standard 1 Piece (TD4) call-in interval is once every hour while in compliance.

• The 1 Piece (TD4) will call Attenti as soon as a violation occurs. Note: The call-in

intervals can be adjusted.

Passive Mode:

• The standard 1 Piece (TD4) call-in interval is once every six hours.

• The 1 Piece (TD4) will not call Attenti when a violation occurs. The officer will only be

made aware of violations when they view the GPS maps or the Daily Event Summary Report (DESR) that is emailed to the officer.

• Violations will also be displayed in Case Management and on the Offender Monitor.

1 Piece (TD4) Operating Features

LEDs

There are three LEDs on the top of the 1 Piece (TD4), identified as Power, GPS, and Zone. The three LEDs work separately and provide the offender with information. The 1 Piece (TD4) will vibrate to provide an indication that the offender must look at the LEDs.

LEDs

Power

This LED indicates the condition of the 1 Piece battery.

Prior to Activation:

Before activating the device, the officer should conduct a battery test. To do this, simply hold down the silver activation button for three seconds and observe the condition of the Battery LED.

• If the “PWR” LED is green, there is a sufficient charge to activate the 1 Piece.

• If the “PWR” LED is red, or does not light up at all, the 1 Piece needs to be charged.

After Activation:

• If the “PWR” LED is blinking green, there is a sufficient charge.

• If the “PWR” LED is blinking red, the 1 Piece needs to be charged.

1 Piece on Charger:

When the 1 Piece is connected to the charger, the Power LED will be solid (not flashing) green or red.

• If the LED is red: The 1 Piece is not fully charged and should not be disconnected from

the charger

• If the LED is green: The 1 Piece battery has been completely charged and the charger

may be disconnected

• When the 1 Piece is connected to the charger, it will vibrate once indicating a good

connection. When the battery is fully charged, the 1 Piece will vibrate once indicating that it is okay to remove from the charger.

warning and/or violation. When the violation has been cleared, the LED will stop blinking.

Beacon Overview

• Radio Frequency communication with 1 Piece (TD4).

• Adjustable ranges: The default range between the

Beacon and the 1 Piece (TD4) is up to 150 feet (high). The range can be adjusted to medium: up to 100 ft. and low: up to 50 feet. All ranges are approximate and based on environmental conditions.

• 24 Hour Backup Battery.

• Battery backup takes 4 hours to recharge.

• The Power LED indicates that the Beacon is on and

functioning properly.

• If the LED is not lit, the device has not received

power from a wall outlet for more than twenty-four hours and the backup battery has died. The device must be plugged in immediately.

• Motion Sensor.

Beacon Operating Features

Home/Away Status

When the 1 Piece (TD4) is in range of the Beacon, it will start receiving signals from the Beacon and will record a “Home” status. The 1 Piece (TD4) will remain in the “Home” status until it is taken out of range of the Beacon.

When the 1 Piece (TD4) is taken out of range of the Beacon, it will stop receiving signals from the Beacon. When the 1 Piece (TD4) is out of range for five consecutive minutes, it will record an “Away” status.

Note: The “Home” status indicates that the 1 Piece (TD4) is within range of the Beacon. The “Away” status indicates that the 1 Piece (TD4) is not within range of the Beacon.

GPS Off/No GPS Icons

When the 1 Piece (TD4) is within range of the Beacon, in the “Home” Status, for two consecutive minutes, GPS will be turned off. While GPS is turned off, an icon will appear on the EM Manager (Smart View) map in place of the “No GPS” icon. The icon will read “GPS Off.”

GPS will be reacquired when the offender moves out of range of the Beacon for one minute or when a Base Location Un-trusted or A/C Power Loss violation has been generated.

While the offender is in the “Away” status, if the offender loses GPS, the “No GPS” icon will appear on the EM Manager (Smart View) map.

Beacon Operating Features, Cont.

A/C Power Loss/Base Location Un-Trusted

If the A/C Power or the Base Location Un-Trusted violations occur during the “Home” status:

The 1 Piece (TD4)’s GPS will turn back on. After 60 minutes, the 1 Piece (TD4) will check to see if the violation has been cleared. If the violation has cleared, the GPS will turn off. If the violation has not cleared, the GPS will stay on and the 1 Piece (TD4) will continue to check the status of the violation every hour until the violation clears.
