Page 3: Introduction
This manual provides you with installation and operating guidelines for the Vigil Geo, Geo+, Thermo and Remote. Since the Vigil range of products is so versatile, it is impossible to provide you with instructions applicable to every application in a single document. -
Page 4: Loading Sim Card
LOADING SIM CARD CAUTION: Before loading your SIM Card, ensure that the SIM Card you are using does NOT require a PIN Number (most Telstra SIM Cards are supplied with a PIN Number required each time you start the mobile device). If the SIM Card requires a PIN Number you will need to insert the SIM Card into another mobile phone and turn off this requirement before it will work on Vigil. -
Page 5: Turn Vigil On
TURN VIGIL ON If you have not already done so insert the SIM Card using the instructions noted above. To activate the unit, take the small white plug from standby battery and slide it into the power socket as shown in FIG 4. This only goes in one way. Do NOT force. When you do this you may note the small LEDs on the circuit board start flashing. -

NB This will cause Vigil to send itself an occasional SMS to update the time. Depending on your chosen mobile phone plan you may be charged for these SMS messages. Once entered this number cannot be removed. If you don’t add the Device Phone number, Vigil will still work, but the TIME will only be updated from the network when an SMS message transfer occurs. -

2. If the GPS receiver is already on and tracking satellites then the message your unit sends will show ‘(NEW)’ for the fix. If it is not warmed up, or it cannot determine its location because it cannot get a GPS fix, it will send a report showing '(OLD)', while it continues searching the sky for satellites and a NEW fix. -

Page 16: Output Relay Connection Alternative
OUTPUT RELAY CONNECTION ALTERNATIVE Depending on the model Vigil you are using, the output relays have provision for Normally Open, and Normally Closed connections. Instead of finding and connecting to the relay common to create a positively switched output, it is often easier and more convenient to convert the relays to negative switching. -
Page 17: Wiring Assignments
WIRING ASSIGNMENTS Each Vigil model has slightly different wiring assignments. Please ensure you identify the wiring assignments applicable to your model from the following diagrams. Please note that only 7 wires are typically exposed at the end of the cable. To access the remaining wires carefully remove the heat shrink at the end of the cable. -
