TASYL P1MSBT01 Track USB Memory Stick User Guide
Description of Products
Model Names:
- P1MSBT01 (Standard USB 3.1 Flash Drive)
- P1MSBT02 (Secure USB 3.1 Flash Drive)
TASYL has designed and brought to market the world’s first USB Flash Drive/Memory Stick/Pen Drive product with a built-in battery powered Bluetooth 5 based tracker. Both models are equipped with the same tracker system which sends a 2.4GHz Bluetooth radio always signal/beacon every few seconds when powered by battery and even when the USB flash drive is not connected to any computer. These beacons are picked up by the TASYL app for the TASYL product registered to yourself even when your app is running in the background on your Android or iOS smartphone. The TASYL USB Flash Drive product is also equipped with a sounder which can be made to beep using the TASYL App user interface to quickly find the device around you.
The TASYL App has many more features which will be covered later in this document. In an open surrounding scenario like a playing field the TASYL products have been measured to receive these beacons even farther than 200 meters.
Safety Information
Environmental Specification
Operating Temperature: 0 oC to 45 oC
Storage Temperature: 0 oC to 60 oC 10% to 90% humidity (Storage and
Operational)
Important Note 1: Keep TASYL devices away from exposure to water and other fluids which may or may not be corrosive in nature.
Important Note 2: Do not attempt to open the TASYL products other than the battery lid to replace battery in the future. Substances contained in this product and/or it’s battery may damage the environment and/or human health if handled and disposed of improperly.
Battery
Both models are fitted using a Coin Cell battery of model CR1632. It is
recommended to replace the coin cell battery with a CR1632 battery
manufactured by Panasonic after the battery has run low. Please note that for
typical use cases it is estimated that the battery life of P1MSB family
products should last approximately one and half years before needing
replacement by the user.
The battery compartment is secured using a M1.4mmx6mm Countersunk Pozi drive self-tapping screw. Using an appropriate torque screwdriver (PZ00), it is advised to rotate the screw anticlockwise under reasonable pressure (so as not to grind the screw head and damage it) focussed into the screw hole in order to unscrew it from position and once battery is replaced the screw can be screwed back in by using the appropriate torque screw driver and rotating (driving) the same screw in the clockwise direction under reasonable pressure in the direction of the drive so as to not grindthe head of the screw and damage it beyond repair. Again, care must be taken that the screw driving action is done under reasonable pressure on the handle of the screwdriver focussed on the driving action so as not to grind the head of the screw as a result damaging it beyond repair.
Note: Battery life is estimated to be around 14 months at 25 degree Celsius storage temperature and relative humidity of 50%. The battery life decreases when the sounder/buzzer functionality is used too frequently and at a higher volume play setting on the TASYL App.
