2. SuperGuard Vehicle Unit Features

In order to install the SuperGuard Vehicle Unit properly, the following preparations should be carried out:
Prepare one operational GSM SIM card. Make sure that the SIM card can operate without PIN protection and has GPRS with unrestricted Internet access enabled (ask your GSM operator for APN and GPRS dial up requirements). Empty the SMS storage of the SIM card using operational GSM phone (please refer your GSM phone manual to do this).

3. Preparations

The SuperGuard SG-VT05 is a GPS vehicle tracking device, ideal for fleet management and commercial data centers.

The SG-VT-05 is easy and quick to install, saving costly installation time and fees.

Data exchange between device and server is maintained over GPRS and Internet connection. All commands and configuration details can be sent either through GPRS or SMS. An SMS only mode is also available.

Up to 5 authorized contact numbers can be configured to inquire vehicle location through 2-RING phone call or short message command. Alternately, you will be able to query device location and status over Internet Website or GPRS enabled cell phones at all times.

You can setup and configure monitoring activities and alerts, using Control Base software or Tracking Web services via Internet Explorer or mobile on GPRS enabled cell phones.

1. Open the battery cover on the bottom side of the device and remove the battery. 2. Insert the SIM card into the SIM holder in the direction as shown in picture. 3. Place the battery in the compartment and connect it to the battery cable.

Tracking schedules, live tracking and parameters including trip information such as total travelled distance or trip distance in km can be configured according to your needs.

You can define and load up to 4 restricted areas (Geo-Fence areas) to the device and setup maximum speed alert.

The engine immobilizer allows you to disable the vehicle ignition according to specified trigger times through GPRS or SMS command.

Battery Connector

The device comes with one SOS Push Button designed for emergency alarms to be sent to server and contact numbers. It should be placed at a hidden place within reach of the driver on the dashboard.

You can configure and activate three power saving modes according to ignition off time, no movement or no communication time.

4. Replace the battery cover.

4. Installation
NOTE: Finish all wiring and connections to the correct vehicle outputs and inputs before you apply the connector to the Vehicle Unit ! To obtain maximum functionality of your Vehicle Unit you should locate and connect the following electrical output and input wires from the vehicle to the complying pigtails of the device connector:

Connecting The Vehicle Unit:

NOTE: Please note that installation methods may vary between vehicle models. For expert wiring and connecting please contact a professional car electronics workshop for installation support and maintenance.

The Vehicle Unit will only operate on 12 V systems with negative earth (Negative to body).

o Before starting installation, disconnect the vehicle battery and observe other manufacturers safety instructions regarding alarm systems, airbags or anti theft radio coding.

2 cables from 12V Power Supply (+ from Vehicle Battery) and Ground 1 cable to SOS Emergency Button (Dry Contact) 1 cable to alarm siren or indicators 1 cable from Ignition ACC Out (from ACC+) 1 cable to Engine Relay

o If you want to install the Vehicle Unit in the passenger compartment, make sure that all antenna cables and wiring is protected from sharp edges and is routed in such a manner that it will not be pinched.

When connecting, refer to the cable description and wiring diagrams on the following pages.

o The device comes with built-in GPS antenna. It shall be mounted vertically with its top facing the sky. The ideal location is under the dashboard, close to the windscreen. The device will not work if it is placed beneath metal or metallic glass coatings.

o The SOS button should be installed at a place on the dashboard. It should be hidden but easily accessed in emergency cases. It should be placed separate from dashboard controls and car audio devices.

o Do not connect the spare battery to the Vehicle Unit before you have completed all electrical wiring and connections to the device. 9

6. Getting Started

7. SOS Emergency Button

After applying the wire harness to the Vehicle Unit, the device will power up and automatically attempt to register to GSM network. Provided that your vehicle and the device is positioned in a location with clear un-obstructed view of the sky, the device will then start scanning for GPS satellites to obtain its first GPS lock. This first fix can take several minutes.

The SuperGuard system includes one SOS button that can save your life in case of accidents, hijacking or emergency cases.

SOS Emergency Call

The SOS button can be installed at a hidden place within reach of the driver. Pressing this button will start the following actions:

Before the device is able to operate properly, some mandatory setup parameters need to be configured from the Control Base software or Tracking Websites. The following basic initializations, SIM card details and GPRS dial-up information are required to be sent by SMS command or RS232 in order to establish communication with the server:

The Vehicle Unit will send an alarm message and GPS coordinates to the Control Base. The Control Base software will find the street name and closest intersection from a map server and send these details through SMS short messages to all Contact numbers, with the text:

CCNO: GSM number assigned as Control Base number with full authorization ID: Device ID (8 digits) Choice of GPRS or SMS as communication option APN (Access Point Nodes) for GPRS dial-up UserID and Password for GPRS dial-up (if applicable) IP of host server for data exchange Port of host server for data exchange

Submit the information to complete the setup of your Vehicle Unit.

Peters truck is in Madison Ave, near intersection Brixton Rd.; GPS Car Alarm: SOS !

IMPORTANT NOTE: Once your device has been initialized, all following commands sent through the Control Base have to use the same GSM number (Control Center Number). To switch to a different Control Center number at a later time, you will need to send an Initialization command with the modified Control Center number using the original GSM number at the Control Base.

8. Monitoring Activities
Vehicle Battery Cut Off
If the Vehicle Unit has been removed or cut from the main power source, the following report feature will come into effect:

Users are able to setup and configure monitoring activities and alerts to the Vehicle Unit, using Control Base software or Tracking Web services via Internet Explorer or mobile on GPRS enabled cell phones.

Geo-Fence Alarms Battery Low Warning

The Vehicle Unit will send an alarm message with GPS position to the Control Base. The Control Base software will find the street name and closest intersection from a map server and send these details through SMS short messages to a list of up to three authorized Contact persons. If power is restored back to normal, the device will send another report to the Control Base.

The Vehicle Unit can been configured with a set of up to four restricted geographic areas (Geo-Fences), the following activities will be triggered when a Geo-Fence violation occurs:

If the car battery gets too low or, if no main power source is connected and the included battery pack in the Vehicle Unit runs low on power:

The Vehicle Unit will send an alarm message and GPS coordinates to the Control Base. The Control Base software will find the street name and closest intersection from a map server and send these details through SMS short messages to a list of up to three authorized Contact persons.

Over Speed Alarms

The Vehicle Unit will send an alarm message and GPS coordinates to the Control Base. The Control Base software will find the street name and closest intersection from a map server and send these details through SMS short messages to all Contact numbers. If the device had been powered off, the device will send another report to the Control Base once power is restored.

Ignition Status Report

For trip reports and trip distance calculations, the device can be configured to send reports each time the ignition is turned on and off.

If the Vehicle Unit has been configured with a maximum speed limit, the following activities will be triggered when the vehicle speed exceeds the speed limit: The Vehicle Unit will send an alarm message and GPS coordinates to the Control Base. The Control Base software will find the street name and closest intersection from a map server and send these details through SMS short messages to all Contact numbers. The device will continue collecting data for over speed report until the vehicle speed falls under a specified threshold.
