6.1 Powering On/Off

Specific power on/off instructions are not detailed in the provided information. Typically, GPS trackers have a power button or power on automatically upon SIM card insertion and charging. Please refer to the device itself for any physical buttons or indicators.

6.2 Real-time Tracking

Once the device is powered on and connected to the network, open the "dagps" application on your smartphone. You can view the real-time location of your tracker on the map interface. The device utilizes both GPS and AGPS for fast and accurate positioning.

6.3 Positioning Modes

The TK600 supports various positioning modes to optimize battery life and tracking frequency:

  • Roll-call Positioning: In this power-saving mode, the device remains on standby. You can manually trigger a location update via the APP to get the current position.
  • Continuous Positioning: For constant monitoring, the device will continuously report its location. This mode consumes more battery.

You can switch between these modes at any time through the "dagps" application settings. The device is designed to be online even when static, allowing the APP to activate positioning.

  • Low Battery Alarm: Receive notifications when the device's battery is low.
  • Movement Alarm: Get alerts if the device moves from a stationary position.
  • Geo-fence Alarm: Set virtual boundaries on the map. Receive alerts when the device enters or exits these predefined areas.
  • Vibration Alarm: Notifies you if the device detects significant vibration.
  • Anti-demolition/Anti-collision Alarm: Alerts for tampering or impact.
  • SOS Alarm: If configured, pressing the SOS button (if present) will send an emergency alert to pre-set contacts.

All alarm settings and notifications are managed through the "dagps" application.

8. Troubleshooting

ProblemPossible CauseSolution
No GPS signal / Inaccurate positioningDevice is indoors or in an area with poor satellite reception (e.g., dense urban areas, underground).Move the device to an open outdoor area with a clear view of the sky. GPS signals are only available outdoors.
Device not reporting location / No communicationSIM card issues (no call/SMS/GPRS, insufficient balance, caller ID disabled, call forwarding enabled).
  • Ensure the SIM card has active call, SMS, and GPRS internet services.
  • Check the SIM card balance.
  • Confirm Caller ID is enabled and Call Forwarding is disabled.
  • Reinsert the SIM card correctly.
Unexpected positioning behavior (e.g., not continuous when expected)Incorrect positioning mode selected.Check the "dagps" APP settings. "Time sleep" is a single positioning mode, while "vibration sleep" and "shutdown sleep" are continuous positioning modes. Adjust as needed.
Device not turning onLow battery or charging issue.Charge the device for at least 6 hours. Ensure the charger and cable are working correctly.

9. User Tips

  • Optimal Signal: For the best GPS accuracy, always try to place the tracker in a location with an unobstructed view of the sky.
  • Battery Management: Utilize the power-saving "Roll-call Positioning" mode when continuous real-time tracking is not critical to extend battery life.
  • SIM Card Monitoring: Regularly check your SIM card's data and balance to ensure uninterrupted tracking service.
  • Geo-fence for Safety: Set up Geo-fences around important areas (e.g., home, school, workplace) to receive immediate alerts if the tracker enters or leaves these zones.
