Blubox Specifications

OverviewOverview

• Home accessory (tether) to an Active Blu+

• RF provides positive confirmation that the enrollee is present

• Does not use a phone line; all activity is reported via Blu+ to VeriTracks

• Greenfield range of 300 feet (open space with no structural constraints)

Indoor environments (residential structures) may impact the maximum range

• Location Verification of the Blubox is
performed to confirm its placement

• Secure coded RF signal cannot be imitated

10

How Blubox and Blu+ work when

OverviewOverview

grouped together

The Blubox emits an RF signal that when detected by the Blu+ causes it

to:

• Trigger an Enter (Blubox) event

• Go into a Blubox Powersave Mode if the following criteria is met:

– Blu+ can hear its Blubox

– Neither is in violation

– Blu+ can successfully contact VeriTracks to upload its data

• Constantly listen for the Blubox RF signal

11

How Blubox and Blu+ work when

OverviewOverview

grouped together (cont’d)

• A Blu+ will come out of Powersave Mode if one of the following occurs:

– Blubox loss of RF signal

– Blubox Loss of power, movement, or Blubox tampering

– Any standard Blu+ violation

• If a Blu+ is out of Powersave mode, but in range of its Blubox, the Blu+

will still show Enter (Blubox)

12

OverviewOverview

Special Considerations

Blu+ will enter its Blubox home without a valid GPS position, but only if
the Blubox location has been previously validated with a good GPS
position since the last Blubox alarm was cleared.

A Check-N’s arrival time can overlap the home curfew, but if at home
during curfew, GPS will not perform Check-N tracking. However, a
violation will be sent at the end of 30 minutes.

 If the curfew is inactive and the Check-N is missed, Blu+ will be

tracked with GPS while at home.

The Blu+ has a special mode during the period after install to allow
offender to go home and plug their Blubox.
