PART A: CONFIGURING SETTINGS FOR THE TRACKBOX

SETTING THE ACTIVITY TIMER 

Message settings 

SMS SERVICE NUMBER

You can store the SMS service number (1), which is needed
for sending normal short messages and telematics protocol
messages. 

The number must be set correctly, otherwise sending short
messages is not possible.

The SMS service number can be found e.g. in the manual of
your local network operator. 

However, if you are supplied with a separate SMS service
number for telematics protocol messages, you may store the
number in the 

Protocol settings

 data field. For more infor-

mation, see 

GENERAL TELEMATIC SETTINGS ON PAGE 26

.

Configuring separate SMS service number for protocol mes-
sages is recommended in case the 

Activity timer

 is used (see

above).

1.

Start time

: Key in the date and time, when the

timer is switched on for the first time. Start
time can be selected by clicking the arrows
(1), as well.  

2.

Interval

: Key in the interval for wake-up (2). If

the interval is set to zero, the timer is NOT in
use.  

3.

Positioning skip

: It may not be necessary to de-

termine current position each time when the
timer is turned on. By setting a value N for the
position skip (3), the device can be pro-
grammed to only determine the position every
Nth time the timer is turned on.
