RM2TRACK-1-0 | ADVANCED SUPPLY CHAIN TRACKING TECHNOLOGY

Typical Operating Cycle
The RM2TRACK-1-0’s reporting cycle may vary depending on the use case, but it is designed to be
asleep for most of the time to preserve battery life. As such a typical operating cycle can be
characterised as:
Optional features
1. Global visibility
The RM2TRACK-1-0 has the ability for 2G fallback. Usage of the device on the 2G network is expected
to have a significant detrimental impact on the battery. As such, it is expected that there shall be a
device configuration operation that allows operation on the 2G network.
When this option is set, reports on journey start/end will attempt to use 2G if connectivity with LTE
CAT-M fails.
2. Integrity monitoring – Shock / Tip events
The RM2TRACK-1-0 has a single accelerometer. The accelerometer is used for movement detection.
Changes in the orientation can be observed and used to communicate tip events. To detect Shock, the
accelerometer must be configured to sample at a faster rate. The monitoring for Shock / Tip can
generate significantly more data communications (and in turn use more of the battery). As such, these
events shall be a configuration option.
The device with Shock / Tip events enabled shall:
 Report on Shock over specified ‘G’ threshold
o A report will be generated upon breach of Shock threshold.
 This shall be based upon the resultant value of Shock observed.
 Report on Tip over specified tip angle
o A report will be generated upon breach of tip threshold.
 This shall be based upon the angle change observed between 10s sensor
readings.
Please Note:
 The accuracy and consistency of the Shock value observed shall depend upon the sample rate of
the accelerometer.
