AutoGRAPH-Mobile Functions
Coordinate acquisition
In normal mode, the AutoGRAPH-Mobile
acquires coordinates of the asset after the
specified period and records the coordinates
into FLASH memory. When turning on the
tracker for the first time, it can take up to 26
seconds to acquire the position. The acqui-
sition time depends on how clear the view of
the sky is and for the best performance, it is
recommended to locate the tracker with the
GPS/GLONASS antenna facing the sky. It is
not recommended to cover the tracker with a
metallic object.
State of the GNSS receiver is indicated with
the NAVIGATION/CHARGING LED (see the
“Tracker’s Indication” section). Depending on
settings, the tracker can switch to Standby
mode, when the asset is in an idle state. As
soon as motion is detected, the tracker will
return to normal mode of operation.
Data transmission
Collected tracking data is transferred to a
preset server. The tracker must be covered by
GSM network and GPRS must be available
to transfer the data to the server. The state of
the GSM modem is indicated with the GSM
LED (see the “Tracker’s Indication” section).
When the GSM modem is OFF, the GSM LED
does not flash. If a SIM card is not inserted or
incorrect PIN is entered, the tracker switches
the GSM modem off and data transmission
is not available.
SMS
Incoming SMS
The AutoGRAPH-Mobile supports remote
configuration. To configure the tracker
remotely, you should send an SMS with a
control command to the tracker, ensuring
that the telephone number of the active SIM
card is used. Advanced customers can send
the settings via the data server.
Outgoing SMS
On request, the tracker sends the current
coordinates to the customer by SMS. The
coordinates are sent as a link to an online
mapping service. By default, the tracker sup-
ports Yandex Maps, Yandex Satellite, Goog-
le Maps, and Google Satellite services, but
the customer can specify any other format
of the coordinates using the AGMobileConf
Program.
Also the tracker can be set up to send a no-
tification by SMS, when it enters / exits the
geofenced area.
Alert signal
This option is designed for use in life
threatening or other emergency situations.
The AutoGRAPH-Mobile is equipped with
an SOS button and capable of sending an
alert SMS with the current coordinates of the
asset. In an emergency, press and hold the
alert button for at least 3 seconds.
The AutoGRAPH-Mobile can be customized
to perform the following actions, when the
alert button is pressed:
To send SMS with the current coordinates
The tracker can be set up to send an SMS
with asset’s coordinates to preset telephone
numbers. Up to 4 telephone numbers can be
stored in the tracker’s memory.
The tracker sends two alert SMS messages.
The first message is short and contains
time of alert activation and the current
coordinates, if they are available. The second
SMS contains the current coordinates and
the last valid coordinates of the asset. The
coordinates are sent as a link to an online
mapping service.
The first (short) SMS is designed to be sent
as one message to increase the reliability of
data delivery. The second SMS is longer than
the first one, therefore, it may be received as
