WatchLock Cube is a combination of an electronic tracking device with GPS locating system and cellular-based communication capabilities and a padlock.
Together they provide immediate triggered alerts and location information through messages, email or a web-based monitoring platform.
This manual describes how to configure and monitor the WatchLock Cube device.
Audible signals
The device uses audible signals (beeps) to announce its activity. When you insert the programming cable or the batteries in the device, it will sound one (1) audible signal (beep), to indicate that it was activated.
After this, the device will connect to the cellular network. Once the device performs a successful connection to the cellular network, it will sound two (2) audible signals (beeps).
At the same time, the device will connect to the GPS and get the location. Once the device performs a successful connection to GPS, it will sound three (3) audible signals (beeps).
The device will sound four (4) audible signals (beeps) when its batteries are getting empty.
When the shackle is connected to the tracking device and the lock is being locked / unlocked, the device will sound one (1) short audible signal (beep).
