2. Turn ON Internal Battery Switch and connect to external power and
IGNITION input (blue wire, see wiring diagram for details).
3. Blue LED (LED in Middle) will start blinking after few seconds.
4. When initialization is complete and device is waiting for GPS signal,
green LED (1st LED from Left) starts blinking continuously until GPS is
fixed.
5. When initialization is complete, user can send SMS commands for
required settings. Don’t send SMS commands during initialization, it may
cause initialization failure and may lead to restart device.
6. Device will start transmitting logs when GPS fixed (Green LED will be
solid). If GPS not fixed in 10 min then device will start transmitting logs
with default location.
NOTE: Ignition Input is mandatory, either using SIGS or Ignition wire (blue). It is
recommended to use wire for ignition input.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR SMS COMMANDS
1. Keep SMS delivery report ON in your mobile phone before sending SMS
commands.
2. Wait for 60 sec for device response, after the SMS is delivered.
3. If there is no response from device in 60 sec then send SMS command
again.
4. If SMS command is sent, then don’t send next SMS command before 60
sec or device response.
5. If SMS not delivered in 60 sec, then send the command again.

5. Set Logs Interval
Command :
#<4 digit password>#LOGS#<interval in sec>;
Description :
<4 digit password> 4 digit numeric password is for command
authentication. Default password is 1234
<interval in sec> Time interval to capture new log in memory. Interval is
in sec. You can set interval upto max 5 digits. Default value is 20 sec.
Example :
To capture logs at interval of 20 sec, send command
#1234#LOGS#20;
See response screenshot below
NOTE: Logs interval is an interval at which device will capture location information
and stores it in internal memory.
Some users confuse it with transmission interval, but transmission interval is
different.
It means you can define when to capture logs and when to transmit it, separately.
It is obvious that if you want to see location at every 10 sec then logs should be
created at every 10 sec.
We have provided this feature to give more flexibility to the user for setting up
transmission behaviour of device.
IMPORTANT: If speed <= 10 km/h then logs interval will be multiply by 2. For
example, If logs interval is 20 sec then at speed <= 10 km/h logs will be created at 40
sec interval by default and if speed is > 10 km/h then logs will be created at 20 sec
interval.

6. Set Transmission Interval

#<4 digit password>#TRTM#<interval in sec>;
Description :
<4 digit password> 4 digit numeric password is for command
authentication. Default password is 1234
<interval in sec> interval at which all stored logs will be sent to server.
Interval is in sec. You can set interval upto max 5 digits. Default value is 0.
Example :
To transmit stored logs after every 20 sec, send command
#1234#TRTM#20;
See response screenshot below
See transmission modes supported by device on next page.

Transmission Modes
There are 2 transmission modes in device.
In first mode device maintains connection with server and transmit logs as
per logs interval. Device does not break connection with server after
transmission is complete. This mode is activated when transmission interval
is less than or equal to 10 sec. By default device has transmission interval of
0 sec, which is less than 10 sec. So by default device is in first transmission
mode.
For example if logs interval is 20 sec and transmission interval is 0 sec then
device will connect to server once and transmit logs at every 20 sec. Device
will remain connected to server in this case.
In second mode device connect to server, transmit all stored logs and
disconnect connection from server. This mode is useful if you require data
at long intervals. It will reduce load on server as device will connect to
server only when required. This mode is activated when transmission
interval is greater than 10 sec.
For example if logs interval is 30 sec and transmission interval is 300 sec (5
min), then device will store logs at every 30 sec, connect to server after 300
sec (i.e. 5 min), transmit all stored logs (10 logs in this case) to server and
disconnect connection from server. It means device will connect to server
once in every 5 min in this case, hence reduces load on server.
User is flexible to set logs interval and transmission interval as per required
transmission needs.
