Operational suggestions
To operate effectively your TAGZ needs, a GPS fix, a 2G GSM connection and a 2G GPRS
connection.
For maximum battery life leave the TAGZ in standby/sms (mode 0) and request a location ad-
hoc to be sent to your mobile.
When tracking is required send the appropriate sms message to turn on mode 1 or 6 then set
the desired update time for ‘live’ updates to the optional web tracking platform.
Mode 6 turns GPS chip to always on and is the most power hungry but gives best chance of
getting a GPS fix in poor conditions.
If when in mode 0 the TAGZ cannot get a GPS fix in 3 mins (there can be many reasons for
this) it will send back its last known location.
If this happens switch it to mode 6 (interval 30,30) for a few mins and either check again
(url,123456) or check web platform for an update.
Then switch back to mode 0
If GPS does not update then it is likely to be in a location with no GPS (eg inside a building
etc)
Wait a while and try again
