1.4 Device installation and sealing method

- With the wire open, wire the device to the container lock and fasten the device.

- When connecting the wire to the device, be sure to push it all the way to prevent the connection

failure.

- Confirm the lock by touching the NFC card registered in the NFC antenna section within

5 seconds after wire tightening.

- Attach the magnet on the back of the L-100 to the flat surface (steel material) of the container

and tighten the device to the container.

- When attaching the L-100 to a container, etc., be sure to install the L-100 in the following

direction to obtain optimal GPS reception.

1.5 How to unseal and retrieve the device

1) The operation switch is not lit when the device is operating. At this time, when the

operation switch is pressed, the NFC antenna lights in blue. (The light is kept in blue for 5

seconds.)

2) Attach the registered NFC card before the blue light on the NFC antenna turns off. (The

blue light is on for 5 seconds.) When the touch is completed, the buzzer sounds and the

NFC antenna turns off. At this time, pull the right wire segment after press it slightly inwards.

When the wire is disconnected, a green light blinks to receive the GPS(to send the device's

open signal). When the green light is off, a blue light will come on for the data

communication. The blue light turns off when data transmission is completed.

3) Device retrieve method

- Hold the eSeal device with the magnet attached to the container with both hands firmly and

remove it safely.

- Retrieve the device with opened wire device.

2. How to use the device

2.1 Device operating process

1) When the wire is tightened, the NFC card authentication is performed first.

- The LED of the NFC antenna flashes together with a beep for 5 seconds.

- The registered NFC card should be touched to the NFC tag within 5 seconds.

- If the NFC card is authenticated, the alarm is stopped and the LED flashes.

※ In order to use NFC card, NFC card ID must be registered in L-100 device.

(Refer to '3.5 APN and NFC setting method’.)

2) When the NFC card authentication is completed, GPS is received. (Takes up to 180 seconds)

- At this time, the Operation switch flashes green.

- When the GPS reception is complete, the green light turns off.

3) Once the GPS reception is complete, access the communication network. (Up to 300 seconds).

- At this time, the Operation switch flashes blue.

- When the device is connected to the network and the data transmission is finished, the

blue light turns off.

4) After the Operation switch light is blinking, the device waits until the next operation.

2.3 Check battery remaining volume

Under the operation of the Operation switch, the battery power level notification (LED Color)

is like

the Blue light is High level, the Green light is Middle level, the Red light is Low level.

- How to check the remaining battery level is as follows.

1) You can check the remaining battery level by viewing the debugging data of the device.

e.g.) II 2017/08/18 04:56:48 BSU(0:0:1) SM(0) BAT(4350)

In the above debugging data, the BAT(4350) is the remaining battery power.

Here, the battery means 4350 is 4.35V.

※ Refer to '4.1 Device debugging method' for details.

2) You can check the remaining battery level by viewing the log of the equipment.

e.g.) 17/08/25 06:55:40, 1, 0, A, 37 24.088240 N, 127 06.467960 E, 4236, 0xD0 0x76 0x5

- Meaning: August 25

th

2017 6:55:40(Date), 1(event code), 0(open status), A(GPS reception

status), 37 24.088240 N(latitude), 127 06.467960 E(longitude), 4236(battery value), D0-76-

58-7E(NFC key value)

In the above log, the battery value is 4236 and the value is 4.236V.

※ Refer to '4.2 Log data analysis method' for details.

3) You can check the remaining battery level in the tracking monitoring system.

You can check the remaining battery level in 'Battery' item in 'Transport history' - 'Tracking

' by accessing the tracking monitoring system.

Here, the remaining battery level is displayed in %.

3. Device maintenance

3.1 Wire replacement method

- If the wire breaks and the wire needs to be replaced, refer to the Technical Maintenance

Document, which describes how to replace the wire.

3.2 USIM replacement method

Once inserted, it is imperative that the insertion of caution is checked again, because it

cannot be withdrawn again.

If the USIM is incorrectly inserted or the USIM is defective, refer to the Technical

Maintenance Document that describes how to replace the USIM.

3.3 How to deal with battery charging/discharging and replacement

- Battery charging can be charged by plugging the mini B USB cable underneath the device.

The charging input voltage uses 5 V 2A.

- If the battery is discharged and the wire cannot be released, connect a portable external

battery to the USB port of the device and release the wire.

- The battery is cut off at 3.21V to enter sleep mode and will not operate the equipment.

- If the battery is completely discharged or the battery is defective, refer to the Technical

Maintenance Document for replacement of the battery.
