PROGRAMMING OVERVIEW
The SmartOne comes ready to use with a factory configuration loaded in the device. The factory configuration,
Standard Messaging without Motion and Interval Messaging of 12 hours, may be changed using the SmartOne
Configuration Software, the USB Configuration Cable and a (Windows) PC.
INPUTS
The SmartOne has two dry contact inputs that can be accessed by using the SmartOne External Input Cable, which
is sold as an accessory to the device.
INSTALLATION OF CONFIGURATION SOFTWARE
The SmartOne Configuration Software can be downloaded from the Globalstar website at
.
Log into your VAR account using your username and password. The Configuration Software is located in the
software downloads section and is supported by Windows 10, Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP Service Pack
2, Windows 2000 and Windows 98.
INSTALLATION OF WINDOWS USB DRIVER
In order to properly connect to the SmartOne unit using the USB Configuration Cable, the required USB device
driver must be installed on the PC running the Windows Operating System. In particular, the device driver for using
the USB Configuration Cable is supplied by Prolific (PL2303_Prolific_DriverInstaller_v1.18.0B.zip) and may be
downloaded at the following link:
http://www.prolific.com.tw/US/ShowProduct.aspx?p_id=225&pcid=41.
Download the ZIP file, unpack it, then run the DriverInstaller executable. It will seamlessly install the correct USB
device driver for use with the SmartOne USB Configuration Cable.
CONNECTING DEVICES
The SmartOne, with batteries installed and battery cover screwed down, connects to a PC
using a USB Configuration Cable. Since the Windows Operating System needs to install
the driver for the SmartOne USB Configuration Cable, first connect the cable to the PC,
then to the SmartOne unit. The USB Configuration Cable plugs into the SmartOne when
the connector cover is removed. The SmartOne Configuration Software may be used
without being connected to devices to prepare configurations but must be connected
to a device using the USB Configuration Cable to program it. Once the Program button
has been depressed the USB Configuration Cable should not be disconnected, if already
connected, from the device and/or the computer.
Caution: Upon replacing the Configuration Cable Cover, tighten the screws according to
specification; otherwise the unit may no longer retain its water-tight capability.
