1.1 Scope
The purpose of this document is to describe how to getting started with the IntelliTrac P1 Personal Tracker devices. The document contains basic device configuration. For advanced users, please refer to the IntelliTrac P1 personal tracker Protocol Document for detailed information.
1.2 About IntelliTrac P1 Personal Tracker
The IntelliTrac P1 personal tracker Unit wirelessly transmits location, and provides an emergency supports. Location data, including longitude latitude, is provided by an onboard GPS receiver. Wireless transmission is achieved using an onboard GSM/GPRS module. A microcontroller is used to poll location and command data at regular intervals, derive actions based on location, peripheral, and control data, and execute those actions.
Firmware on the device applies intelligent filtering to overcome coverage limitations for both GPS and GSM/GPRS networks.
Motion sensor is used to control the status of the unit, either sleep, idle, or full power, there by controlling the amount of current the unit consumes.
Backup battery and tamper sensing GPS Antennas are primarily used to indicate loss of Main Power and loss of GPS antenna connectivity.

FCC Regulations:
This mobile device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This mobile device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiated radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
-Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
-Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
-Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
-Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user‘s authority to operate the equipment.
The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
4444RF Exposure Information (SAR)
This device meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves. This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile devices employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.
*
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the device is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the poser required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.
The highest SAR value for the device as reported to the FCC when tested for use when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.468 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among device models, depending upon available enhancements and FCC requirements.)
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various devices and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this device with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this device is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID: RLS-STAVL0924.
For body worn operation, this device has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines for use with an accessory that contains no metal and the positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body. Use of other enhancements may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.

2.3 Communication Settings
There are two communication modes for the IntelliTrac P1 Personal Tracker device to communicate to the control center. One is SMS, and the other is GPRS (TCP/UDP). The device should be set communication parameters before install the device to vehicle.
(1) SMS Configuration
Setting SMS control center phone number or short code by using AT$SMSDST command. For example, the SMS control center phone number is +886123456789, issue the AT$SMSDST command in HyperTerminal like below:
AT$SMSDST=+886123456789 OK
Then you can try to use cellular phone or SMS gateway to send a SMS message to the A1 device.
Send a SMS message "AT$MODID?"
Device will response $MODID=101000001 OK (Type AT&W command to save all command parameters into the non-volatile memory of the device.) AT&W OK
This proves the mobile phone SMS connects successfully.
