The SHOUT nano offers a variety of services including:
Normal Tracking — The SHOUT nano can be programmed to automatically wake up and
send a position report at a set interval ranging from once every minute to once a day.
Emergency Alert — When the emergency 911 button is pushed, the SHOUT nano
immediately sends alerts to a designated corporate email, home email, and/or
monitoring center. The home base and the user can then communicate to define
further specifics of the situation and a response to the emergency.
Free-Text Messaging — The SHOUT nano allows users to send free-text via three
different sets of on-screen keyboards.
Canned Text Messaging — The SHOUT nano allows users to send canned (predefined)
messages. Up to 600 predefined messages stored in memory can be retrieved and sent.
Sending canned messages saves bandwidth (effectively cost) because only short codes
are transmitted to the server instead of the entire message body.
Waypoint Tracking — The SHOUT nano lets users send and/or save waypoints for later
retrieval. A waypoint is a GPS location that a user wants to identify and mark with a
specific name tag for future reference.
Check-In — The SHOUT nano allows a quick check-in message to be sent using a single
soft key.
IMPORTANT: NAL Research can enable the SHOUT nano for use on the Department of Defense
(DoD) Enhanced Mobile Satellite Services (EMSS) Gateway. However, accessing the EMSS
Gateway is not authorized until the SHOUT nano is provisioned (signed up for airtime).
Unauthorized attempts to access the EMSS Gateway will result in immediate disabling of the
offending device, which must then be returned to NAL Research for repair. Please see webpage
for more information regarding DoD EMSS service provisioning. This is
a U.S. Government Information System website, and can only be accessed by authorized users
with a valid certificate.
IMPORTANT: Do not disassemble the SHOUT nano for repair or services. The warranty is void if
the SHOUT nano is disassembled. Return it to NAL Research for services by calling 703-392-
