Installing Your Battery-Powered

Long Term Asset Tracker
The ATLT device will ship with an activated data plan.
Insert the batteries where there is a clear view to the sky so that when the device recognizes power, it has a strong cell signal to successfully report in. Do not install inside of a building or places where there isn’t a strong cell signal.
If your device does not check in within 30 minutes of battery installation, remove the batteries, wait 30 seconds and then re-insert.

Install The Included Batteries
It is very important to use 1.5V Lithium, or 3.6V Lithium thionyl chloride (LTC) AA batteries. LTC batteries not only offer a longer life, but can withstand higher temperatures. We do not recommend the use of normal alkaline batteries, which will only power the ATLT for a few weeks of operation.
INSTALL THE BATTERIES CAREFULLY. The tracker does not have reverse voltage protection, so installing batteries backwards can damage your device. The springs are the negative terminals.
Once the batteries are inserted, the internal LED will come on and flash.
Attach Your Tracker
The long term asset tracker can be attached to your equipment with magnets (sold separately) or with #10 (5mm) screws (not included). If possible, choose a mounting point that will give the top of the device a clear line to the sky, and one that will not result in elevated temperatures. Once installed and activated, your tracker will check in every 12 hours.
