1 AVL-901(C) Quick Start Guide

2 Hardware Quick Installation Guide 1. Precaution before Installation Prepare a SIM card for GSM communication. Use some other mobile phone to confirm that the PIN code has not been set, and that it can dial out and receive telephone calls without problem. Before install the SIM card, make sure to cut off power from the AVL unit. The correct installation method is to push the tray completely into the AVL unit, until you feel it is hooked by something. It takes around over 20 minutes for the very fist time positioning.

11 How to set GPRS APN? Please check with your telecom company for the following data beforehand. The Access Point Name (APN) of the telecom company. Is the User_Name and APN_Password required for the APN setting? You can refer to for the examples of the GPRS APN set-up. Please make sure the SIM card does support GPRS communication; and the GPRS function has been activated. Please note that WAP and MMS are not workable for real-time tracking; GPRS is a must for the operation. Please send the SMS command "600#Password#APN#IP#User#APN_Password" referring to following examples. Example 1: Vodafone (Airtel) - from Spain APN: airtelnet.es Username: vodafone Password: vodafone 600#8888#airtelnet.es# #vodafone#vodafone (*must key in " " as the IP, when "User" & "APN_Password" is required) Example 2: Telefonica (Movistar) - from Spain APN: movistar.es Username: movistar Password: movistar 600#8888#movistar.es# #movistar#movistar Example 3: Telmore (TDC) - from Denmark APN: internet Username: tdc 600#8888#internet# #tdc (*must key in " " as the "IP", when "User" is required) Example 4: Telia - from Denmark APN: Username: telia 600#8888# Example 5: Taiwan Cellular APN: internet 600#8888#internet (*no need to key in the "IP", when "User" & "APN_Password" are not required) 10

12 Why I can t find the IMEI# of my device in GooTrac main screen? It is because the position data of your device still can not be sent back to GooTrac server by GPRS. There must be some problem with the SIM card, or the GPRS APN settings, or some other telecom problem. Following are some of the possible factors which may cause the data can not be sent back to GooTrac server by GPRS. 1. The APN setting is not correct Please check with your mobile operator for the latest & exact GPRS APN settings; if Username & APN_Password required for the APN settings. Please note that the data provided by us were what found in the internet, which maybe out of date. You must check with your local telecom company for the correct APN data. 2. The SIM card does not support GPRS communication Please check with the telecom company if the GPRS function of the SIM card has been activated. Maybe the SIM card does support GPRS; but not yet been activated. You must call & ask the telecom company to have the GPRS function opened. (Please note that one can link to internet by WAP, or MMS, or GPRS; but only GPRS is good for real-time tracking; WAP & MMS are not workable - i.e. it is not for sure that the SIM Card does work on GPRS, even though you can link to internet with the SIM card.) 3. The GPRS communication is simplex, not duplex Please check with your telecom company if the GPRS communication is duplex not simplex - i.e. the device can both receive & send out GPRS data. 4. The 3 SMS commands to set up the GPS tracker were not sent correctly Please double check the 3 SMS commands sent to the device, and make sure the commands were sent correctly. 5. Firewall or Anti-virus Software The operation of GooTrac is blocked by firewall or anti-virus software. We suggest you to disable all the firewall/protection for the PC used for testing; and have this PC linked to internet directly, not thru router/intranet... After the communication problem solved, then you add on the required protection one by one, so that you can find out where the problem resulted from. 11
