    For the elderly who fall and are unable to get back up on their own and this may cause a devastating consequence.
    How it works:
    The device must sense height, impact and angle etc. The height must above 1 meter, and angle change over 45 degrees. The authorized numbers will be alerted without the user pushing SOS button when the fall sensor is activated.
    Due to the daily life activities (like some sports, sit back on a coach, etc.), sometimes device may detect a fall incorrectly, this situation may cause false alarm.
    However, users can manually cancel the fall alert by pressing SOS button during its beeping.
    Very Important: Because it still has few chances for the non-detected falling down, we still strongly recommend user to press SOS button when it has emergency situation.
    Command: FL1,1 or FL1,2 or FL1,3 or FL1,4 or FL1,5 or FL1,6 or FL1,7 or FL1,8 or FL1,9

GPRS Settings by SMS

1. APN setting
   In order to use the GPRS function, the user needs to setup the APN by sending SMS command.
   –What is APN? Access point name (APN) is the name used to identify a general packet radio service (GPRS) bearer service in the GSM mobile network. TheAPN defines the type of service that is provided in the packet data connection.
   ※ Make sure that the SIM card in the tracker supports the GPRS function.
   ※ The APN can be acquired from your local GSM operators.
   Command: S1, APN, user name, password
   Notes: Some access point name without user name and password, so please leave it blank.
   Example: S1,internet
   “internet” is the APN from the SIM card provider; therefore, the user must set their particular APN for their own country which the unit resides.

   After send S1,APN, wait for a while then you will see device is online.

2. Set GPRS Time interval by SMS
   Command: TIxxS/M/H
   The meaning of “xx”, The setting must be in 2 digitals and maximum 99 in value, which means 01~99.
   xxS is the time interval in second with range (30~99)
   xxM is the time interval in minute with range (01~99)
   xxH is the time interval in hour with range (01~99)
   Example: TI01M
   The device will reply “Set updating time interval OK!” and then device will update the time by every 1 minute on the website.

3. Disable GPRS
   Command: S0
   The device will reply “GPRS OFF”.

4. Reconnect GPRS
   Reconnect the website via GPRS for real time tracking, please send S2

5. Setting a Heartbeat Packet Reporting Interval

   Command: HBxxM/H
   Note: xx=00~99, M=Minute, H=Hour, The heartbeat packet function is only available for the PS1 and PS0 working mode.
   Example: HB01H
   After send the above command, the tracker will send the GPRS heartbeat packet to the platform every 1 hour in PS1 and PS0 mode. The heartbeat function is used to keep the platform connection smooth, but GPS positioning data is invalid.
   Command: HB00M
   When the interval is 00, the heartbeat packet function is disabled.

6. Setting reporting time interval when no movement
