Events and How they Work
Parked:
An Event occurs if the vehicle stops moving for about 2 minutes. The unit will send a message to the
SKYPATROL website indicating that it is “Parked” with the current address of the vehicle.
Motion:
An Event occurs if the device senses movement. The device will send a message to the SkyPatrol website
indicating that the vehicle is in “Motion.” Once the device reports “Motion,” it will continue reporting the address of
the vehicle every 5 minutes until the vehicle stops moving in which case you will receive a “Parked” message.
SOS:
An event occurs when the panic button is pressed for more than three seconds. Two notifications will be sent
to the platform and via e-mail or SMS Text Message if assigned to this alert. The first notification will be the last
position and time the unit held an accurate GPS signal and the second notification will be the current position and
time. (If the current position is identical to that of the first notification than an accurate GPS signal could not be
received when the panic button was pushed).
Low Battery:
An Event occurs if the device senses that the battery is running low. The device will send a message
to the Skypatrol website indicating that the vehicle has “Low Battery.”
