Product Structure

How to manage the tracker to get online?

Step 1

Please get a suitable SIM card from your local place. The SIM card must meet below points:

It must be compatible with the 2G GSM or 4G LTE CAT M1 network
Please enable SMS, call, internet data traffic of the SIM card
Remove the PIN code
Enable the caller ID display feature
Use Normal size SIM card for the tracker
Please inquire the SIM card provider for the exact correct APN information

Step 2 SIM card installation

Indicator status description

LED	Event	State
RED LED	Searching for GSM/Cat M1/Cat NB1 network	Fast blinking
RED LED	GSM/Cat M1/Cat NB1 works normally	Slow blinking
BLUE LED	Searching GPS Satellites	Fast blinking
BLUE LED	GPS works normally	Slow blinking

Step 4 Configure APN

Please get the exact correct APN name from local SIM card provider. Take the tracker to a good signal place for operation and configure the APN for it as below:

SMS Comm and Format	Reply	Example	Note
APN, Apn Name, User, Password#	SET APN OK	APN ,orange, orange ,orange#	If the SIM card has APN user and APN password, then use this command.
APN,ApnName#	SET APN OK	APN,internet#	If the SIM card operator *doesn’t* have APN user and APN password, then please use this command.

Note: The APN information is very important, it must be 100% correct to match with the sim card of the tracker, if you configured wrong APN, the tracker also will reply “SET APN ok” but it will can’t get online!

Troubleshooting

Type	Use
Cannot connect platform	Device is never online on the position server when installed at the first time. Please check device: If power cables are wired correctly? Pay attention to not connect them to controlling cables of vehicle. If SIM card is installed correctly? Please refer to the installation instructions. Check status of LED indicators. If device is OK,12 red and blue LED will intermittently and slowly flick. Inquiry parameters of device via commands and check replied parameters.
Offline status	First check if LED indicators are OK, if cannot check them, you can check SIM card following next steps: call SIM card of device and check if you can hear connecting ring. Check if vehicle is in the area where there is no GSM or LTE CAT M1/NB1 signal. Check if one device or all devices are offline in the area . If all devices are offline, you should ask operator If network is OK. Check if SIM card has enough balance. If device becomes offline on the last day of one month, please check data transferring is closed or not. Inquiry parameters of device via commands and check replied parameters
No positioned	If the GPS is active, but device cannot be positioned for long time, please check device: If the vehicle is in the place where there is no GPS signal. The upside of device should be installed with face toward the sky. The GSM & LTE CAT M1/NB1 and GPS signal may be weakened if device is installed in the place with electromagnetic wave absorption material(such as metal blocks), special attention should be paid if there is metal thermal insulation layer or heating layer on the front windshield, so that the position accuracy will decline, and the severe ones will not be positioned.
Type	Use
Position drift	Serious position drift will be found in places where GPS signal is poor. Please drive the vehicle to the open places.
Commands receiving abnormally	Check the commands format. Check if the vehicle is in the places where there is GSM signal Check if the SIM card is properly installed.
