Quick Reference

TOPFLYtech-SolarX-110-Asset-GPS-Tracker- (2)

Attention

  1. SolarX 110 obtains power through sunlight to extend the battery life.
  2. Please make sure that the device is exposed to direct sunlight every day. This will be very useful to extend the battery life. If the device is not charged for more than three months, it may cause permanent damage to the internal battery.
  3. Please give the device a full charge before installation.
  4. Only when the solar panel output voltage value is 0.3V higher than device battery voltage value, the solar panel will start to charge the battery. Otherwise, the solar charging will stop.
  5. To ensure the battery life for longer period, please be careful to set the reporting intervals. Lower reporting rates will maintain the balance between the power consumption and gaining (from solar panel). We usually recommend set the tracker reporting ≥every 30 mins when ignition/motion on, and ≥every 1 hour when ignition/motion off. Customer may contact TOPFLYtech for further advice.

Equipment power consumption and solar panel charging current

  1. The normal device power consumption is around 50mAh when the device is in working mode without sleep.
  2. The typical charging rate of the solar panel under direct sunlight at noon (in summer) is about 80mAh (different sunlight illumination, different charging current).

Disclaimer
Before using this device, customers should fully understand their usage scenarios and installation environment. TOPFLYtech will not be responsible for any lost caused by using the device in a wrong scenario or reporting rate. It is highly recommended that customers should contact TOPFLYtech before deployment. We are glad to give suggestions.

Intelligent Power Management
To extend the battery life, we designed an intelligent power management algorithm. This algorithm allows the tracker working under a lower reporting rate when battery is low. Once the battery is charged back, the tracker will report as normal. This function is enabled in default. Customer can disable it by command. The detail working logic is:

  • When the battery voltage value is down to 3.2V, tracker will send position message at every 24 hours no matter ignition (motion) on or off. Alarm (event) message will not be affected and sent out immediately regardless of whether the tracker is in this mode.
  • When the battery is charged back to 3.4V, the device will report at its TIMER setting.

Battery Protection
The tracker has a charging threshold to avoid the battery overcharge. Only when the battery voltage is ≤ 3.95V, the battery charging will start once sunlight condition is met or the tracker is connected to external power through the cable. The charging will stop when the battery voltage reaches 4.05V or the sunlight condition isn’t met or it’s disconnected from external power, depending on which comes first.

FOTA (firmware over the air) Notification
TOPFLYtech is committed to providing clients with the best user experience. We are offering automatic firmware update feature for every device. This feature allows devices always having the latest version firmware. It can save clients the time and effort of updating firmware manually. Please note that this feature is enabled in default. If you want to turn it off, please contact with TOPFLYtech. If this feature is disabled, the fw update only can be done by sending upgrade command manually.

Quick Trouble Shooting

  1. Unable to Connect to the Tracking Platform
    1. Check the APN and IP settings.
    2. Check the SIM card data service whether enabled.
    3. Make sure there is no limitation or already added server IP to the SIM card IP whitelist when using a M2M SIM card.
    4. Check the balance/data of the SIM card.
  2. Tracker Shows Offline
    1. Check the battery remaining power
    2. Check if the device entered into network blind area.
    3. Check the SIM card balance.
    4. If the connection lost happens on the last several days of the month, check whether the network service is terminated by carrier because of exceeding the max data usage volume.
  3. Unable to Locate
    1. The device may shield by metallic things.
    2. The device may enter into an area with no satellite signal coverage. (Underground, building, etc)
  4. Position Drift
    In an area with poor GNSS signal (like the areas with lots of high buildings), position drift may happen. When the device moves to open area, the drift will no longer exist.
  5. No Command Reply
    1. Check the command format. Make sure it’s correct.
    2. The device may be in network blind area.
    3. Ensure the SIM card is properly inserted.

Warranty and Stock

The device standard warranty period is 12 months starting from the date of purchasing. If the device will be stored for a long time, please connect it to the external power and recharge the internal battery (5 hours) every 3 months. It will be helpful to extend the internal battery life.
