5. Operating Instructions
5.1 Real-time Tracking
The GT06N supports multiple tracking modes:
- SMS Tracking: Send an SMS command "WHERE#" from an authorized SOS number to the device. The device will reply with a Google Maps link of its current location.
- APP/Web Platform Tracking: Access real-time location, history playback, and various alarms through the dedicated mobile application or web platform (e.g., www.tracksolid.com).
5.2 Remote Fuel/Power Cut-off
In case of theft or emergency, you can remotely cut off the vehicle's fuel or power supply to stop the engine. This function is available through the tracking platform/app.
5.3 Voice Monitoring
The external microphone allows for discreet voice monitoring inside the vehicle. To use this feature:
- Pre-set an SOS number on the tracking platform.
- Dial the pre-set SOS number from your phone.
- The device will silently answer, allowing you to listen to the audio within a 5-meter range.
5.4 SOS Emergency Call
In an emergency, pressing the SOS button for 3 seconds will activate an SOS alarm. The device will send SOS SMS messages to pre-set SOS numbers and continuously dial these numbers in a loop (up to 3 times) until a call is answered. An alarm message will also be sent to the tracking platform.
5.5 ACC Status Change Alarm
The GT06N can detect the vehicle's ignition status (ACC ON/OFF). You can send the command "ACCALM#" to receive SMS alerts when the ACC status changes. For example, if the ACC changes from OFF to ON, an SMS alert like "Attention please! ACC ON 2018-09-27 11:11:11" will be sent to the SOS numbers.
5.6 Vibration Alarm
The vibration alarm function is off by default. To activate it, send the command "SENALM,ON#". The alarm will be sent to both the service platform and SOS numbers. To deactivate, send "SENALM,OFF#".
5.7 Over Speed Alarm
When the vehicle exceeds a pre-set speed limit for a specified duration, the device will send an over-speed alarm SMS to the user. This helps monitor driving behavior and prevent accidents.
5.8 Geo-fence Alarm
Set up virtual boundaries (geo-fences) on the tracking platform. The device will trigger an alarm if the vehicle enters or exits these pre-defined areas, providing an additional layer of security.
5.9 Battery Management
The GT06N features a built-in 3.7V 450mAh Li-polymer battery. If the main power supply is cut off, the device will immediately activate a cut-off alarm and send it to the platform. The internal battery allows the tracker to continue working for approximately 4 hours, ensuring continued tracking even without external power.
