guidelines,
as well as the safety and
operating
instructions before
operating your device. Follow
all
instructions
and
heed
all warnings
in the

1.3.
Recommendation for both types:
Move the switch inwards (I) to activate the internal battery.
The switching ON
of the internal
battery requires
a running
system. This is
about
10
seconds after
ignition
(the
led 4
must
be lit
then unlit).
Move the switch outwards (O)
to deactivate the internal battery.
The switching OFF
of the internal
battery is instant. Thus, do
n
’t switch
off the internal
battery
if the
device is running without
be
connected
to an
external battery.
If using a custom SIM, the SIM
card
PIN code must
be deactivated.

2. Preparing/insta
lling the device
2.1.
Open
the device to insert a sim card
If you ordered your device without a SIM card (e.g. you are planning to use your own SIM card). Please follow
the directions below to install the SIM card.
Insert
a flat
screwdriver
into the 2
holes
and
pry
it to
remove
the back cover.
Be careful not to insert the screwdriver too far into the case, as you may contact the
circuit board inside and damage it.

New Eagle Consulting www.neweagle.net PH: 734.929.4557
Unscrew
the
screw
at the back of the device
Afterwards
pull on the
PCB
to
release
it.

2.2.
Connect the GSM/GPS external
antenna
2.3. Choose
the appropriate location for mounting
The
ideal location for
mounting
the
device is under
the
dashboard. However, some types
of coated
windshields, as
well
as windshields with
an
in-screen heating system
can block
GPS signals. External
antenna should never be covered
by any
kind of object or material,
especially
not
by
metal or
aluminum. Transmission
and
reception
of
GPS signal is however
not
hindered by plastic
or normal
glass. Moreover,
put at
least
20 cm
between
the
antenna
and a speaker.

Power supply may
be
derived directly
from the vehicl
e’s
main power or from the board installation
.
In the
first case,
it
is
an
absolute must that a fuse
on the main cable
is present.
Ignition wire
must al way s be
connected to the vehicl
e’s
ignition OR
tied with the
permanent positive
to the vehicl
e’s battery.
Ground
must be always connected first.
It
is mandatory
to add a
fuse (2A) to
the
permanent positive. The closer
to the
connection
point
with vehicle
power.

2.6.
Plug the device to the external
battery
The device must
have a direct
connection
with the main power
(external battery).
1.
Check
that all the
inputs
implied in the
wake-up reasons configured
on
your device
are not
connected.
2.
Plug the device (black wire)
to the ground of the
external battery.
3.
Plug the device (red wire)
to the
permanent positive
of
the external battery.
4.
Plug the device (white wire)
to the ignition
(after contact).
In
some case,
the
use
of a
circuit breaker
can let the ignition
(after contact) active. Thus,
the device
will be ON
indefinitely. So, it’s important
to find a signal where
the ignition can be ON or OFF.
Moreover,
it
is imperative to insulate
the
GPS antenna
in order to avoid it get in
touch with
the ca
r’s
cha
ssis.
The device should be always
plugged to:
•
The
ground of the
external battery.
• A ground point
defined by
the
vehicle manufacturer (if different
from the ground
of the
external battery).
A circuit breaker should never be enabled as long as:
•
Ignition is
active.
•
Ignition goes OFF since less than 2
minutes. This is
the time for the
device
to do
a proper shutdown.
It
is mandatory to
add a
fuse (2A)
to the
permanent positive. It is advised to make
th is as close to the
connection point
with vehicle
power as possible.
3.
Inputs activation threshold
Here
are
inputs activation thresholds (voltage).
•
Ignition (active high)
is active
if
voltage greater
than
3V (disabled
if
smaller
than 1V)
•
Alarm (active low)
is active
if
voltage is below 1V (disabled
if
greater
than 3V)
•
Digital Input1 (active low)
is active
if
voltage is below 0.5V (disabled
if
greater
than 3V)
Note: Range voltage
on
inputs is
0-30V
4. Outputs information
The
two Outputs are
active
low and
they
can
deliver
up to 300mA.
Note: Outputs have
a pull-up
resistance
of 10Kohms
