TELEPHONE RING ALERT - TRACKER TO MOBILE PHONE
(DEFAULT ON)
If the alarm/SOS function is used or the vehicle travels out of or into a geo-fence area, the
tracker will send an alert by making a normal telephone call to the users mobile phone as
well as sending a text message with its location.
No voice communication is possible with this product – the call is an audible alert only.
Telephone call alerts can be programmed off but SMS text alerts will still be sent.

CAR ALARM ACTIVATION ALERT (OPTIONAL)
The tracker can be connected to a vehicles car security systems siren to provide a text
warning if the alarm is activated.
Any sounding of the alarms siren longer than 10 seconds will activate the SOS function
above - the alert message is the same as SOS.
Normal chirps for the alarms arm, disarm and pre-intrusion should not cause an alert
unless longer than 10 seconds - depends on the make and model of alarm.
NOTE:
This feature may not be compatible with all car alarm systems.
Please advise all ‘users’ the meaning of the SOS alert as it may be an alarm
activation or a call for help or assistance.
ADJUSTING TIME (DAYLIGHT SAVINGS)
The time on received messages from the tracker can be adjusted to allow
for worldwide usage and daylight savings.
