Product Features

Garmin Navigator

After the device is connected to a Garmin navigator, the GPS navigation, information dispatching, and location query functions become available. The device can connect to the Garmin navigator which supports FMI protocol V2.5 or later, and you must purchase the Garmin data cable.
For details about the Garmin navigator, please visit the website:
http://www8.garmin.com/solutions/mobile-resource-management/supported- devices/.
For details about how to install and use the Garmin navigator, see the Garmin Navigator User Guide.

Harsh Acceleration/Braking Alarm

You can detect the harsh acceleration/braking alarm by setting the limit value. Cautions on device installation:

1. The device should be installed into the vehicle according to the following direction.
2. The device installation angle cannot exceed 15 degrees.
   The default harsh acceleration and braking alarm values are 200 mG and -250 mG respectively.

Note: The alarm results vary according to the device installation, vehicle model, vehicle weight, and driving behaviors. After the device has been installed properly, you can use the Meitrack Manager software to adjust the harsh acceleration and braking alarm values by every 10 mG. You can also use the D78 command to set the values.

Roaming Mode

On the Meitrack Manager page, device parameters in roaming mode differ from that in non-roaming mode. When the device detects that it is in roaming mode, it will be operated according to roaming parameters. This helps to save network traffic and learn about device working status.

CAN Bus Interface

The device can read CAN bus data of a vehicle that supports the FMS protocol.
The following data can be read: vehicle speed, vehicle control status, accelerator pedal position (%), total fuel consumption, engine rotational speed, total engine run time, total mileage, engine coolant temperature, fuel level, engine torque, ambient temperature, torque at current speed, fuel consumption rate, axle weight, service distance, and instantaneous fuel consumption.
Caution:

1. To obtain the preceding data, the vehicle must support the FMS protocol.
2. Install the device based on vehicle types. Connect vehicle’s CANH and CANL wires to tracker’s CANH and CANL connectors respectively.

GPS Data Filtering

The GPS data filtering function can ensure GPS data accuracy and eliminate static drift.
You can set the following parameters by Meitrack Manager: GPS speed range, GPS positioning accuracy, and Number of GPS satellites. When the GPS data filtering function is enabled, if all conditions are met, GPS data will be updated. Otherwise, GPS data will be invalid.

Note: This function can be enabled by Meitrack Manager.

Activating Output by Event

You can activate output by event. For example:

1. When speeding is detected, the device can control buzzer sounds.
2. When unauthorized ignition or GPS antenna cut-off is detected, the engine will not be able to start.
3. When RFID triggering is detected, the device can control the vehicle door.
4. When input or output status is detected, the output will be active or inactive.

2. Insert the SIM card into the card slot with its gold-plated contacts facing towards the Printed Circuit Board (PCB).
3. Close the cover, and tighten the screws.

Note:

• Power off the device before installing the SIM card.
• Ensure that the SIM card has sufficient balance.
• Ensure that the phone card PIN lock has been closed properly.
• Ensure that the SIM card in the device has subscribed the caller ID service if you want to use your authorized phone number to call the device.

Charging the Device

When you use the device for the first time, connect the device GND (-Black) and Power (+Red) wires to 12 V or 24 V external power supply for charging. Ensure that the device is charged at least two hours. Eight hours are recommended. The device can be installed on a vehicle only after it is configured and tested.

Configuring Device Parameters by Meitrack Manager

This section describes how to use Meitrack Manager to configure the device on a computer. Procedure:

1. Install the USB-to-serial cable driver and Meitrack Manager.
2. Connect the device to a computer by using the USB-to-serial cable.
3. Run Meitrack Manager, then the following dialog box will appear:
4. Turn on the device, then Meitrack Manager will detect the device model automatically and the parameter page will
   appear accordingly.
   For details about MEITRACK Manager, see the MEITRACK Manager User Guide.

Installing GPS and GSM Antennas

Connect the GSM antenna to the connector which is labeled “GSM”. The GSM antenna is non-directional, so you can hide it in any place of a vehicle.
Connect the GPS antenna to the connector which is labeled “GPS”. It is recommended that the antenna is facing up to the sky and the antenna side with words is downwards. Secure the antenna by using double sided tapes.
Note: Do not install the GPS antenna at a metal covered place.

Common SMS Commands

Setting Authorized Phone Numbers – A71

SMS sending: 0000,A71,Phone number 1,Phone number 2,Phone number 3
SMS reply: IMEI,A71,OK
Description:
Phone number: A phone number has a maximum of 16 bytes. If no phone numbers are set, leave them blank. Phone numbers are empty by default.
Phone number 1/2/3: SOS phone numbers. When you call the tracker by using these phone numbers, you will receive SMS notification about the location, geo-fence alarm and low power alarm.
If you need to delete all authorized phone numbers, send 0000,A71.
When the SOS button is pressed, the tracker will dial phone numbers 1, 2, and 3 in sequence. The tracker will stop dialing when a phone number responds.
Example:
Sending: 0000,A71,13811111111,13822222222,13833333333
Reply: 353358017784062,A71,OK

Setting the Smart Sleep Mode – A73

SMS sending: 0000,A73,Sleep level
SMS reply: IMEI,A73,OK
Description :
When the sleep level is 0, the sleep mode is disabled (default).
When the sleep level is 1, the tracker enters the normal sleep mode. The GSM module always works, and the GPS module occasionally enters the sleep mode. The tracker works 25% longer in the normal sleep mode than that in the normal working mode. This mode is not recommended for short interval tracking; this will affect the route precision.
When the sleep level is 2, the tracker enters the deep sleep mode. If no event (SOS, button changes, incoming calls, SMSs, or vibration) is triggered after five minutes, the GPS module will stop working, and the GSM module will enter sleep mode. Once an event is triggered, the GPS and GSM modules will be woken up.
Note: In any condition, you can use an SMS command to disable the sleep mode, and then the tracker exits the sleep mode and returns back to the normal working mode.

Example:
Sending : 0000,A73,2
Reply: 353358017784062,A73,OK

Setting GPS Data Filtering – D71

SMS sending: 0000,D71,X,Y1,Y2,Y3,Y4
SMS reply: IMEI,D71,OK
Description:
X: Whether to enable the GPS data filtering function. 1: Enable the function. 0: Disable the function (default).
Y1 : indicates the minimum value of the driving speed. Value range: 0–999 km/h. When the driving speed is greater than Y1, GPS data will be updated.
Y2: indicates the maximum value of the driving speed. Value range: 0–999 km/h. When the driving speed is less than Y2, GPS data will be updated.
Y3: indicates the number of satellites. Value range: 0–99. When the number of satellites is greater than Y3, GPS data will be updated.
Y4: indicates the positioning accuracy. Unit: x10. Value range: 0–999. When the positioning accuracy value is less than Y4, GPS data will be updated.
When the GPS data filtering function is enabled, if all conditions of Y1, Y2, Y3 and Y4 are met, GPS data will be updated.
The GPS data filtering function can eliminate static drift, but it will affect the route precision.
