IMPORTANT CONFIGURATION NOTES
We strongly recommend testing the network connection from device to the server before adjusting TAT240 configuration to your needs. Use the following steps to perform this test: · Configure these parameters: APN, server Domain and server Port; · Save configuration to the device by clicking on a Save to device button; · Initiate connection by pressing the Test Connection button. At this point, TAT240 will create one high-priority record and initiate connection to the server immediately. If connection was not initiated, it can mean any of the following: · Improperly inserted SIM Card · Incorrect values are set to these fields: APN, Domain or Port; · GPRS functionality disabled by GSM provider; · No GSM coverage; · Server cannot be reached. Try solving this problem before proceeding with further device configuration.

Quick Manual v1.0 // TAT240 9

On Stop periodic tracking - enable or disable periodic data sending when device is On Stop. Device will generate and send normal record with event ID 0 and movement AVL ID 240 with a value of 0.
On Stop event record enable or disable record sending when device switches tracking scenario from On Move to On Stop. To trigger this event On Stop detection time timer needs to reach set value. Once event is triggered GNSS module will wake up and obtain GNSS fix. Record will have AVL event 240 with a value of 4 that means "Movement event - On Stop".
On Move periodic tracking enable or disable periodic data sending when device is On Move. Device will generate and send normal record with event ID 0 and movement AVL ID 240 with a value of 1.
On Move event record - enable or disable record sending when device switches tracking scenario from On Stop to On Move. To trigger this event On Move detection time timer needs to reach set value. Once event is triggered device will wake up and will trigger one of two records:

be stationary for configured amount of time to change state. Movement interrupts will reset this timer.
On Move detection time (s) configurable amount of time until device switches to On Move periodic tracking. Instant movement will not change tracking scenario to On Move. Device needs to be interrupted at least once every 5 seconds during the configured time to change tracking scenario to On Move.

MAIN RULES OF SETTING SCHEDULE

· Intervals

between

different times must be

at least 6 minutes;

· Days of the week must be selected and highlighted for the device to send records according to the set schedule.

TAMPER SCENARIO

1 - if last record did not have a GNSS fix, GNSS module will be turned on and fix obtained.
2 - if last record had a valid GNSS fix, GNSS module will not be turned on and record will contain last good coordinates.
On Stop detection time (s) configurable amount of time until device switches to On Stop periodic tracking. Device needs to

For some applications or for general convenience an attachable magnetic holder as known as a Tamper is developed for TAT devices. It adds some additional functionalities to the device that will be described in this paragraph.
The device is able to detect 4 Tamper states. Tamper event record has AVL ID 20019 (2 bytes in size) with the following possible values:

Quick Manual v1.0 // TAT240 10

· 0: Holder is removed. This state is detected when the device is without holder.
· 1: Central is attached. This state is detected when only central magnet is added.
· 2: Attached to metal surface. This state is detected when the device is with holder and central magnet.
· 3: Removed from metal surface. This state is detected when the device is with holder only.
IMPORTANT
Make sure the device can detect the holder. Otherwise, attached holder will still result in "Holder removed" state and not "Removed from surface"
CONFIGURATION AND FUNCTIONALITIES
Firstly, it is important to check mechanical configuration of the whole unit. The main steps are:
1. Make sure the central magnet's polarity is in the right direction. To check this, put central device on the holder only (without attached to the device). If the holder pushes it out, it means its polarity direction is correct. Otherwise, flip the magnet.
2. Make sure the device detects the holder itself. It can be checked in the log on first start by seeing the print: "New state: [Holder removed -> Removed from surface]."
3. If it is still not detected, try rotating the holder and put on again. If it still fails, try unscrewing the holder's screws to check magnets' presence. The small magnets should be placed in a way that they try to push the screws out.

THE MAIN CONFIGURATION TABLE
Tamper detection lets user to turn off / on Tamper feature completely.
Tamper detection event allows user to select desired Event when device should report about changed state. More than one option is available.
RECORD TYPE
This option controls the way records are generated during tamper event:
· Event only: wake up modem and send a quick record with last known coordinates.
· Event and Fix: wake up modem and send a quick record with last known coordinates, then device does a full GNSS scan and sends another record with full data.
Activate Recovery mode allows user to select on what event recovery mode should be activated. When tamper state has changed to selected event, the device generates Tamper alarm record and starts Recovery Mode immediately.
Note: currently it is only possible to select a single option for Recovery mode activation.
RECORD GENERATION
Tamper records will be generated separately from other records as soon as event is detected. It is important to configure precise events when expecting certain events to happen.

Quick Manual v1.0 // TAT240 11

For example: if user is using Tamper to attach TAT to a surface and want to detect its removal from it, "Removed from surface" option should be selected. In extreme case, if the device is removed not only from surface but the whole holder is separated, "Removed" can be selected to detect it.
It should be noted that event records will be send with last known coordinates. In order to also receive a record with coordinates, switch Record type parameter to Event and Fix. If user wants the device to start alarming rapidly about some kind of tamper event it is advisable to use Tamper scenario with Recovery Mode activation with short Recovery mode period configured for fast reports.

VALUES 0 - disabled 1 -enabled

We recommend mounting the TAT240 in such a way that the GNSS antenna is pointed at the sky and the device itself is not covered by various obstructions that would interfere with the reception of the GNSS fix.

Tamper Detection 291 Event

0 - Invalid value
1 - Removed
2 - Attached
4 - Attached on surface
8 - Removed from Surface
Other values are a sum of different state numbers.
For example, if you want to configure Removed from Surface and Removed together, just add state numbers and the value will be 9.
To detect all states, value is 15
