TWIG LOCATOR FEATURES

TIMER MODE
When timer mode has been activated on your
Locator, the device will turn on at every set
interval. When the device is on, and there are
previously actived processes e.g. tracking,
those will restart automatically. After success-
full start-up, the device stays active until the
defined power off delay has passed, and the
device is automatically powered off. For more
information on power off delay, see
config 36:
power off delay on page 31
.¨
Upgrading software brings the timer mode
available also to Locator devices previous to G
series.
Tracking or other processes are resumed in
Timer modes only via GPRS. SMS-based
trackings are not resumed when powering on
with timers.
If there is need for location updates on SMS-
based messaging, the INF messages can be
used when powering on. Or sending LOC when
the device is ON. NOTE messages that are
long time in operators SMS-C may not reach
device.
CHARGER ON MODE
When timer mode is activated on your Loca-
tor, (
config 33: on/off timer on page 30 ), the
device automatically powers on and restarts
all previously activated processes on the
defined time interval. If there is a charger
connected to the device, it will stay on until
the charger is unplugged. When charger on
mode can no longer be detected, or charging
voltage is cut off, the device will be powered
off again, after the set power off delay (
config
36: power off delay on page 31
) has passed.
Charger on mode then overrides the timer and
g-sensor modes, and keeps the device on,
until charger is disconnected.
Upgrading software brings the charger mode
available also to Locator devices previous to G
series.
