Original (Full) Tracking and Energy Saver Modes

The LandAirSea 54 offers two modes: Original Tracking Mode and Energy Saver Mode (ESM). In ESM, the unit’s motion sensor is turned off, and it operates on a timer. This mode helps conserve battery life by reducing the frequency of location updates when the device is in motion.

Energy Saver Menu

To activate ESM, follow these steps:

1. Open the SilverCloud mobile application.
2. Navigate to the Energy Saver menu.
3. Select one of the following update intervals:

subscription

Upon selecting one of these options and sending the command to your unit, the next update it registers the unit will receive the command and shift into the option you have selected.
This means, if your unit is currently in an ESM, it will not receive the command to adjust settings until the end of the cycle it was set to. (i.e. If the unit is in 24 hour ESM, it will not receive any new commands until the 24 hour cycle elapses and the unit wakes up again. If the unit isin full/original tracking mode it will not enter ESM until it senses motion.)

Update Rates/Subscription

The subscription plans available for the devices will relate to the rate at which the unit will refresh its location while the device is in motion. This will determine how much detail the unit will give you in between point A and B of its drive. Depending on the information you are looking to receive from the device will determine which plan will be most beneficial for you. The available plans are listed below.

1. 3-minute updates
2.  1-minute updates
3.  30-second updates
4.  10-second updates
5.  5-second updates
6. . 3-second updates

• When on the 5 and 3 second update rates you will notice that the battery will discharge slightly quicker than on the other plans.

Life of Battery and Charging

(Internal Battery: 3.7V 1500mAh, 350mA Max Input Rating: 4.5-5.5V 400mA Max) In the device’s stock Original or Full Tracking Mode, the battery life will depend on the amount of driving or motion the unit goes through. The battery should last approximately 25 activity hours. It will only use the battery when the device is in motion, and when the device stops moving it will enter a dormant sleep state. With most average drivers (1 to 2 hours of driving a day), the unit should last approximately a week and a half to two weeks.

In the ESM options, the unit does not register with motion so the battery is able to last much longer. You can find the approximate timeframes for the various energy saver modes in the]] above section labeled Original (Full) Tracking and Energy Saver modes.

When charging your device, upon plugging in the unit you will see the red charging light turn on. This means the device recognizes the charging cord being plugged in, and that it is actively charging. Once the light turns off, the unit recognizes that it is 100% charged.

*If the device is brought indoors to charge, the unit may not be able to fully establish a connection to update and show the new battery percentage online. At this point we recommend ensuring the device is powered up and then take it outside to register a new update. Once the unit is able to register an update online, you should see it reflect at 100% battery through the SilverCloud mobile application and online portal. NOTE: If the battery drains the unit will automatically power back on once attached to the charger, and does not need to be manually turned on.

Lights and Their Meanings

There are 6 different lights you can see on the 54 device when you are working with it. Each light will have its own meaning and can clue you in on what the unit is currently attempting to do. For the purposes of this explanation we will be describing the lights as you see them when holding the device with the charging port facing to the left and the on/off port facing to the right.

1. Charging – This light will only come on when the unit is plugged into the charging cord. It will remain on as a solid red light until the device recognizes it is at a full 100% charge. You will see this light even if the unit’s LEDs have been turned off.
2. Cellular (Red) – This light will intermittently come on if the device is not connected to cellular signal.
3. Cellular (Green) – This light will flash second by second when the unit is not connected to cellular signal. Once the unit is connected to cellular, this light will come on solid with an occasional flicker.
4. GPS (Green) – Once the unit is connected to GPS signals this light will turn on as a solid green.
5. Power (Red) – This light will come on solid when the unit reaches 20%battery life indicating that the power is getting low and should be charged. It will flash when the unit hits 5% battery life indicating that the battery should be charged immediately.
6. Power (Green) – This light will be on solid green when the device is powered on. This light will remain on unless the device is powered down, or when the battery is below 5% at which time you will only see the blinking red power light.

Powering on and off Lights

The units have two separate light sequences that indicate whether the unit is powered on or off. You will see these light sequences even when the unit is set to have the lights turned off.
This allows you to know what state the unit is in when the power button is gently pressed with the on/off too

Powering On

Upon pressing the power button, when the unit is turning on, you will see all the lights] begin to flash around for a moment. At the end of the sequence you will see all 5 of the main lights flash at you at the same time. Once you see all 5 lights flash at once this means the unit has properly powered up and is beginning to connect. (If the unit has been told to turn its lights off, it will go dark prior to seeing all 5 lights flash. With the unit going dark, this is your cue that the unit has booted up properly, and is ready for use)

Powering Off
Upon pressing the power button, when the unit is turned off, you will see the red and green power lights only flash for a moment or two and then the unit will go dark. Once the unit has gone dark this means it is fully powered down

• NOTE : To avoid confusion please allow the unit to complete the on/off light sequence prior to pressing the power button a second time. Sending the Light on/off commands WILL NOT force the unit to wake, or reconnect.

Locating Serial Number

The serial number for the 54 can be located in two places on the device: on the back of the unit, and also the last 6-7 digits when a light is shone through the dome of the device.

When reading the serial number internally count the number of digits provided to determine how to complete the number. If the serial number is 6 digits and begins with a 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 you will need to add 8880 to the beginning of the number to complete the 10 digit serial number.

If the serial number is 6 digits, and begins with a 0, or 1 add 8881 to complete the 10 digit serial number.
If the internal serial number is 7 digits long add 888 only to the beginning to complete the 10 digit serial number

Accuracy of Unit

The 54 GPS tracking device can have an accuracy to within 500 feet/152 meters.
Depending on the strength of the GPS signal reception the accuracy can greatly increase and give you a more definite location for the device.

Recommended Placement of Unit

Some of our main recommended placements are:

1. In the glove compartment (Dome/Lights facing the sky)
2. In the pouch behind the seat (Dome/Lights facing the back seat.)
3. Under the seat (Dome/Lights facing the sky)
4. Under the vehicle. When placing the unit under the vehicle we recommend having the unit within a foot of the front or back bumper with the dome/lights facing the ground with a clear view to the ground. Avoid areas such as the muffler, wheel well, or hot surfaces.

*The unit is equipped with a 10lb test magnet. When the unit is placed onto a sturdy piece of metal it will remain attached to the vehicle.

These placements should increase the overall signal reception for the unit and give it much more reliable and accurate tracking. You can determine what your approximate signal strength is by selecting the icon representing your unit on the map (defaulted to a red dot upon activation) through your SilverCloud application, or on the web portal. This will provide you with the most] recent information provided by the device. In the bottom right area of the information bubble you will see two symbols. The first is your average GPS satellite connection strength, and the second is your average cellular strength. The higher the number for the GPS connection the better. You want to see an average of 5 or higher consistently. If your strength is 5 or below on average you may want to consider repositioning the device. The more bars your cellular has the better.

Areas to avoid placing your unit are the trunk/engine compartment, or in the spare tire storage area. You want to avoid placements where the device will be completely encased in metal. Being 100% surrounded by metal can weaken the signal strength, and cause gaps in your racking. Avoid any area that can produce excessive heat as this can cause damage to the magnet and/or casing of the device (i.e muffler, or engine).
