Delivered standard content
The delivered standard package content includes the following items:
1 x (GSM/LTE M1/NB IOT/GPS)-unit of the model type TU600-X
1 x Mounting cradle.
1 x Li-ion Battery PN 4233.0002 (May already be mounted inside the TU600-X unit)
Optional content for generic installation:
1 x Fuse with fuse holder for installation up to 24V DC/ (Max 1A) for TU600-X units delivered
with open cable ends. For installation in systems with higher voltages than 24V it is
recommended to use a fuse and fuse holder rated for the specific supply voltage range, see
service chapter for compliant fuse holders.
NOTE:
Fuse and fuse holder is not included in packages where the TU600-X is fitted with a
customer required connector from factory.
NOTE:
In case the unit is delivered with SIM card from the factory (Either US, EU SIM card or
E-SIM as indicated on the product label), then the GSM/LTE M1/NB IOT number will
be indicated on the delivery note as well as on the package itself.
NOTE:
In case the SIM card is delivered from factory it is mounted inside the TU600-X unit.
Ready-to-Use, No Custom Programming Required
Simply connect the unit to supply voltage (12V/24V/48V DC). In its default configuration, reports
are sent nominally at 15-minute intervals or faster whenever there is motion.
Upon powering up, the device will self-initialize anywhere in the world and start transmitting if an
authorized GSM network is available. While a basic understanding of the different TU600-X
operational states is helpful, configuring the TU600-X unit does not require a highly skilled software
programmer or technician.
Cost-effective, Universally Available Communications
The TU600-X unit takes advantage of the near universal availability of GSM/LTE M1/NB IOT SMS
text messaging while also leveraging cost-effective GPRS data rate plans.
Typical SMS plans offer very extensive inter-network roaming capabilities, both within a host
country and internationally.
SMS plans also tend to be too pricey for applications requiring more than a few reports per day.
GPRS data plans, on the other hand, typically allow for lower recurring communication costs
although GPRS coverage and roaming can be restricted in some areas.
The TU600-X unit takes advantage of both technologies by automatically selecting GPRS
wherever such service is available, while relying upon SMS text messages for configuration
purpose only. This helps minimize recurring communication costs while allowing the greatest
coverage possible.
