    4. Instructions for the shipper Before the shipment of cargo with an attached APT-9600 device it is recommended for the shipper to make sure that device is activated. To check the device status, use the gesture feature described in the Status Check by Gesture Feature section of this document.

    • Standby mode (Reverse mode): The mode for Reverse logistics of the device. In this mode all sensors are off and the device is only set to communicate every 30 days. 6. Device Components The APT-9600 device has the following components: charging port (protected by rubber cover) sensors (sensitive spots on the plastic enclosure)
  • Page 5: Events History - Type Of Records

    7.1. Events history - type of records Events history consists of two types of records: 1) Event means a record obtained during a normal state of secured cargo, when there is no initiation of an alert state. An Example would be during every scheduled communication or every GPS update. 2) Alert means a record with a sensor state of alarm or return from alarmed state to normal.
  • Page 6: One-Time And Long Alerts

    7.3. One-time and Long Alerts There are two types of alerts: 1) One-time alert records to the Events history when the sensor goes over the threshold value. When the sensor returns to a normal state no additional recording is done by the device. 2) Long-time alert records to the Events history when the sensor goes over the threshold value and continues until the sensor returns to a normal state.
  • Page 7: Communication Logic

    8. Communication Logic Table 3 contains default communication intervals and availability to change the interval remotely, via command from the web portal. The default communication interval will be in effect when the device is first powered on (battery connected or battery charged after full depletion) until the first successful communication with the server, when the device downloads the new parameter settings from the server.

    Parameters of Device Parameters of a device are set remotely via the web portal. This section describes specific options set in Parameters. 10.1. Forced Active Mode User can turn on "Forced Active Mode" for a particular device. • When Forced Active Mode is turned on the device always stays in active mode. •...

    • Attempts are repeated until a successful connection takes place or until battery capacity falls below or equal to 20%. • Once the battery reaches 20%, the device reverts to the standard communication interval. Sensor Characteristics 11.1. Sensor Sampling Rate Sensor Sampling Rate NOTE...
  • Page 11 In summary, if the maximum value and the minimum value are within 2.1 degrees Celsius, the minimum value will be adjusted to be 2.1 degrees Celsius lower than the maximum value. Temperature alert is generated by the following rules: a) alert appears (higher than max value): value >...
  • Page 12 11.3.2. Shock Units: shock is reported in [g] units. NOTE: [g] is equal to 9.8 m/s Method: shock is a fast event. Device uses the following approach to estimate the magnitude of shock: - high frequency digitization of accelerometer measurements: - low-pass filtering to compute the constant component caused by the gravity vector, its projection on the current axes of the device: - computation of shock vector value - removal of constant component from the raw value:...
  • Page 13 Power refers to the fact that the magnitude of the PSD is the mean-square value of the signal being analyzed. It does not refer to the physical quantity power (as in watts or horsepower). But since power is proportional to the mean-square value of some quantity (such as the square of current or voltage in an electrical circuit), the mean-square value of any quantity has become known as the power of that quantity.
  • Page 14 Graph of power spectral density Implementation of the source signal with random duration (i.e. its deviation is not decreased with increasing of T) means that it's statistically unstable. Therefore, the device utilizes low-pass filter on obtained current values of Observed max level of (power spectral density) is an estimate of the vibration magnitude.
  • Page 15 Status Check by Gesture Feature Gesture feature can be performed as follows: • Flip the device upside-down and then back, with holding device in a flipped position for at least 1 second. • Wait about one second. • Repeat same rotation, i.e. gesture is done twice. Overall this double gesture should be performed within a total of 5 seconds;...
