Medpage Micro Tracker – Instructions for use
The Medpage Micro (MM) is a high tech miniaturised
GPS location tracker, which provides quick location of
the device using a mapping service such as Google
maps (default mapping service). The MM requires a
mobile network Micro SIM card. You can use a contract
or a pay-n-go SIM.
Note: Three (3) network SIM’s are not recommended.
Before purchasing a SIM card, it is worth considering the
signal coverage area for the network where the tracker
will be mainly used as the Micro-Tracker relies on connectivity to a mobile
network to relay information back to the Guardian phones via the setup APP or
SMS text message.
You can check mobile coverage via the vendors website, www.vodafone.co.uk
for example.
Getting Started
There are two methods of using the Micro-Tracker:
1. By SMS text setup commands (provides location only when the tracker is
outdoors, fall alerts and SOS button alarms) all other functions are more
easily accessed via the APP
2. Via the configuration APP. Provides access to all functions.
Before you can set up the MM you will need:
1. Active (with sufficient credit) mobile network SIM card. Make sure that
the SIM card is activated with the network provider. Using a top up card
to add service credit to the SIM does not guarantee the SIM will be active. Check with the network.
2. To charge the MM for 2-3 hours
3. Download and install the user APP. (if you prefer to use the free APP)

activated by network.

few seconds, the device will vibrate briefly, play a short melody then switch off.
Pairing the main guardian phone (for use by SMS text commands – no APP
installed)
The first text message will register your mobile number as the primary contact
number. The zeros in the example are replaced with your phone number. pw
represents default password number, which you can change (see text command
tables) and should change when the APP is installed or by SMS command text. (Make
sure all characters are lower case and make sure to use center not centre). The
second text sets the time zone to UK with English Language.
First text to send: pw,123456,center,00000000000# The tracker will send a
reply text confirmation back to your phone confirming that this is now the master
phone number. If the reply text is not in English, send the send text, if it is, continue
with location test.
Second text to send: lz,0,0# This message sets user language to English and time
zone to UK time. The tracker will send confirmation text to your phone
[lang,0,zone0#]ok
Location test text
Note: If you do not intend to use the setup APP, the mini tracker will only provide
approximate indoor location accuracy. To test the location, it is best to take the tracker
outdoors for at least 2 minutes before sending the test text.
Location text to send from the master phone to the tracker SIM phone number: url#
The tracker will reply with a text like the example shown
