Installation Guidelines

  1. Orientation

    • Check the label direction (e.g., if the label says "Label side down," install with the label facing down)

    • Ensure the device has clear access to GPS signals

  2. Wire Connections

    • RED: Power supply (12V)

    • BLACK: Ground

    • WHITE: Ignition sense

    • Additional wires should remain unconnected

Device Operation

Web Platform Updates

  • Engine OFF: Updates every 2 hours

  • Engine ON: Updates every 2 minutes (basic plan)

Troubleshooting

If the web platform updates every 2 hours while the engine is running, check the white ignition sense wire connection. This connection is required for real-time updates (1–2-minute intervals).

Starter Interrupter Installation

The starter interrupter feature allows remote enabling/disabling of the vehicle starter via SMS commands.

Relay Installation Steps

  1. Short the Black wire (86) with the Blue wire (30)

  2. Cut the vehicle's starter wire

  3. Connect the 12V supply end to the Blue-Black junction

  4. Connect the starter motor side to the Red wire (87a)

  5. Connect the tracker's Green wire (OUT1) to the White wire (85)

Tracker Power Connection

  • Connect the red wire to a 12V constant DC source

  • Connect the black wire to the ground or DC source ground terminal

Important Notes:

  • If relay terminals have different color codes or diode polarity than shown, contact support

  • Do not install the tracker under the hood

  • For international operations, contact support to enable roaming before leaving the US

Account Setup

Your login credentials will be emailed to you. Once the Cell LED blinks every 3 seconds, the device will begin transmitting data to the server, viewable on your account platform.
