  2. Click on the "Activate a new tracker" tile.
  3. Fill out the entire multi-screen form.
  4. Your login details will be emailed to you. Please allow up to 24 hours for your tracker to be activated.
  5. Once you log into your account, you will see the mapping platform where your Wireless Charging Weatherproof Tracker will show its location.

Step 4: Placement of the Tracker

  • The Wireless Charging Weatherproof Asset Tracker needs to have as much access to the open sky as possible to retain its connection to the GPS satellites.
  • Tracker cannot be surrounded by metal since it will block GPS signals. DO NOT hide the Tracker in metal enclosures. DO NOT place it in the middle of the undercarriage, the engine compartment, wheel wells, metal bumpers, the trunk, glove compartment, or in any closed/lidded compartment.
  • When placing the tracker using the included mount, it will clip in to the tracker on the back. The four tapping screws allow for a longer term, more permanent solution when mounting.

Important Facts

  • Once the device is powered on, both the Green and the Blue status LED will flash for about 5 minutes and then will go off, please note that this is normal.
  • During this 5-minute cycle, the green status LED will slowly blink about once every 3 seconds.
  • During this 5-minute cycle, the blue status LED will rapidly blink when searching for a GPS signal and then will slowly blink when it has connected to the GPS network.
  • When powering off the device, both lights will simultaneously flash indicating that the device is turning off.

Troubleshooting

Q: GPS platform says the device is in New Jersey (or was last read 1000 days ago). This isn't accurate.
A: Make sure the green light is blinking once every 3 seconds and take it out for a drive that lasts at least 10 minutes.

Q: GPS platform shows a blue screen or the coast of Africa.
A: This means the device has not yet locked onto a GPS signal. Take it outside for a 10-minute walk or drive, and its location should update.

Q: What should I do if my device says "last updated X days ago," even if it's been in use?
A: Verify that the green light is blinking every 3 second and the device is properly positioned. Ifthe problem persists, email support@spytec.com

Q: My device has been turned on for some time, but it is not updating. Why?
A: If the green Led is blinking once 3 seconds, take it out for a 10-15 minute drive. If the unit is still not updating on the platform, contact Tech Support.
