SIGNAL STRE NGTH – GSM & GPS
This GPS tra c k e r should only be used outdoors to enable it to receive GPS transmissions
from multiple space satellites.
Operation inside warehouses, workshops, garages, parking buildings, etc, or
any other shielded location will result in non-operation or inaccurate information.
Heavy overcast weather will affect GPS signals and accuracy.
This tracker requires connection to the GSM network to enable 2 way
communication with your mobile phone.

If the SOS / car alarm function is used, the priority of contact is 1, 2 then 3 – so set th e
‘users’ care fully in the order you require.
IMPORTANT: Do not hid e the ‘iden tity’ o f the mo bile phon es as the t racker
needs to identify the caller

Displayed map size:
The default size of the map can be adjusted for your preference and your
mobile phones display b y adding size parameters to your location request. We
suggest you experiment with different map sizes to suit the map detail required.
For instance, too wide and street names disappear.
6680000,www,hhh ( www = width of map, hhh = height of map )
Values must be less than 999.
Example shown in photo above : 6680000,850,850
This parameter gives a good wide view without losing detail but with a global
view of location.

GEO-FENCE – restrict ing area of t ravel
You can restrict travel to within a certain area by setting a ‘geo-fence’.
A geo-fence is defined by a base-point (where it currently is) with a permitted radius of travel
from that location. This can be from 1 kilometre to 1000 kilometres (999.9).
If the tracker moves outside this permitted area, it makes a telephone call as an alert to the
mobile phone that set the geo-fence. It will also send a text alert with its location and
includes ‘STATE: OS’ to show the geo-fence area has been ex ceeded.
The tracker will also alert you when it re-enters the geo-fenced area with
“STATE: RS”.
To use geo-fence;
Set the geo-fence area – then turn the geo-fence ON or OFF

This manual
We recommend professional installation of this product to ensure correct
connections and safety and reliab ility o f the th is and the v ehicle.
Locating the t racker and an tennas
Main module
For security reasons, the tracker module should be concealed from view to prevent
tampering. Typical locations are behind the glove box, up high behind the dashboard
instruments or behind the centre console.
Final fitting and location should be completed once full and correct operation has been
verified.
GSM antenna
A flat on-glass hi-gain antenna is supplied. Typical location is above the vehicles
interior mirror.
GPS antenna
The GPS antenna must be mounted w here it can ‘see’ the sky and not obstruct ed by metal
or electronic equipment.
The antenna is magnetic t o al low it to adhere above mos t metal lic s ur fac es, otherwise affix
with other methods such as double sided pads, cable ties or velcro.
Ideally, it should be concealed from view so as not to alert anyone that a GPS tracking
device is fitted. GPS tracking devices should be covert, so the antenna should be hidden
from view.
SOS button
This should be mounted where it can be reached from the dr ivers seat.
SIM card (no t supplied )
A GSM SIM card is required for th is product – Vodafone recommended.
If using an alternative brand of SIM card, check the ‘specifications’ with the supplier of
the SIM card.
19
Insert a GSM SIM Card (no t supplied )
Before connecting an y power to the tracker, insert the SIM card
with the p rovided SIM card holder. Slid e the SIM card fully into the
slot face side up. The holder when inserted als o turns on the
internal bat tery whic h is used f or back-up. If remov ing the tracker
from the ve hicle, alwa ys remove the SIM and ho lder to p revent
battery damage caused by cons tant dra in.
