3. General remarks
3.1. Working mode
Active Track Basic+ is a device that supports data transmission in GPRS technology.
Between the periods of communication with the server, the operating battery-
powered device is not connected to the server and it gathers in its memory the
events to be sent.
Note:
However, during the charging process, the Active Track Basic+ device placed in the
charging cradle maintains constant communication with the define server.
Active Track Basic+ can operate in one of the two working modes, in which:
SMS command support is enabled (column A) –this mode is characterized by
low power consumption; working time between battery charging is
approximately 10 days,
SMS command support is disabled (column B) - this mode is characterized by
very low power consumption; working time between battery charging is
approximately 60 days.
Basic differences between the modes are described in the table below:

3.2. PIN code
The factory-set PIN code of the device is „1111”. Do not insert a SIM card with a
PIN code other than „1111” into the device because such a card will be locked. A
SIM card with a wrong PIN code can be unlocked only by entering a PUK code
using a mobile phone. Before starting the device for the first time, prepare a SIM
card provided by your mobile network operator and set the factory-set PIN code of
the device on the card or disable the PIN code request using a mobile phone.
3.3. RFID transponders reader
The device is equipped with a built-in RFID transponders reader.
See point RFID transponder read-out.
3.4. Buttons

3.8. Memory
The device has a buffer memory for 1000 events, in which events are stored
between the periods of communication with the server.
3.9. GPRS service, charges
GPRS technology (General Packet Radio Service) permits the use of the device for
receiving and sending data through a network based on the Internet Protocol (IP).
GPRS is actually a data service that enables wireless Internet access. For
information on the availability and subscription conditions as well as the GPRS
service charges, contact your network operator or service provider.

10
4. Transmission safety
4.1. Data coding
Safety of data sent from the device to server is guaranteed with the very
safe and strong AES algorithm (Advanced Encryption System). Transmission is
based on the GSM provider network, therefore the device uses all protections
offered by provider to standard mobile phones. Turn to your provider for private
APN, if you want to increase system safety.

6. First steps
6.1. SIM card and battery installation
All SIM cards should be kept out of reach of children.
SIM card and its connectors may be easily damaged by scratching or folding.
Special attention while inserting and removing is therefore recommended.
Remove battery before inserting SIM card
Follow these instructions to remove battery:
1. Turn the device upside down, open lid by unscrewing bolts and take it off.
2. Open the cover on the SIM slot and insert SIM card to holder. Make sure golden
connectors are directed downwards and close cover.

12
3. Insert battery. Connect battery connector to outlet in battery cavity. The
connector shape prevents from incorrect placing of battery –in case of trouble
with placing turn battery round and try again.
4. Lay down wires and close lid by screwing bolts.
6.2. Battery charging
Note:
Using chargers other than advised by The Manufacturer voids guarantee for
the device and may damage it. Current voltage source must be coherent with that
provided on charger’s nominal plate.
The device marked with 230V may be supplied from main socket directly.
The device can be turned off from the network by unplugging the power
plug from the wall socket. The socket must be easily accessible - not pledged.
Recorder rating plate is under the battery cover. Charger rating plate is
located on the button.

13
Battery charging is automatic and there is no risk of overcharge. Charging time
depends on battery load. In case of fully discharged battery it should persist about 2,5
hours.
When the device signals battery low (for more information, go to Indicating work
mode), start charging. Place it as shown in diagram above. Charging and its completion
is signalled by the device.
Note:
If the device does not signal charging when in charger, make sure charger is
plugged in and the device is placed properly.

14
7. Configuration
Active Track Basic+ should be properly configured before the first use. The configuration
can be carried out in two ways:
remotely - using SMS commands containing data required for establishing connection
with the monitoring system receiver (see chapter 7.2.4.2) or using a GPRS connection,
locally - using GPRS transmitters configurator program establishing connection
with the device through an appropriate RS232 cable (see chapter 7.2.4.1).
Local configuration and configuration using a GPRS connection permits access to all
programmable parameters of the device. When using a GPRS connection (e.g. when a
suitable programming cable is not available), the device should first connect with the
monitoring system receiver using the first method (SMS configuration).
7.1. SMS configuration
Configuration of Active Track Basic+ device using SMS messages consists in
sending a SMS message to the device or using GPRS (e.g. using the OSM.Server
monitoring receiver console). These steps will enable the connection to the server and
make its functions available.
An SMS message consists of a parameter name and its value. Each SMS starts with an
access code assigned to the device. When sending settings for more than one
parameter at the same time, each parameter must be separated by a space character.
The SMS message format is as follows:
ACCESS CODE_COMMAND=command_content
where _ is a space character
The following parameters can be configured:
SERVER= server’s_address
Specifies IP number or domain name of the computer Server Software is installed
at. Server must be connected to the Internet with static and public IP number.
PORT= server’s_port
Enters port of server which monitors incoming data on the server.
APN=apn
Access point to network. APN is available at your GSM Provider.
UN= apn_user_name
APN user name. UN is available at your GSM Provider.
PW= apn_user_password
APN user password. PW is available at your GSM Provider.
Note:
These parameters are needed to establish connection with communication
server. If receiving device is OSM.Server(Monitoring System Receiver made by EBS),
then configuration steps of Active Track device consists in:

15
-send SMS message with described on the previous page parameters (SERVER,
PORT, APN, UN and PW),
-wait until device connects to the server
-remaining parameters send over GPRS link, using Console function of
OSM.Server
TPERIOD= time_in_minutes
Defines time between following tests, which are sending to server through GPRS
link. If no parameter is programmed, device will use default value - 1 minute.
If value ends with letter „s” time will be recognized in seconds. Minimal interval
between tests is 20 seconds.
DNS1=dns1
Specifies primary DNS server address and should be defined only if is obligatory.
DNS2=dns2
Specifies secondary DNS server address and should be defined only if is obligatory.
AUTH= Telephone_number
Telephone number which is allowed to send configuration SMS message to Active
Track device. Messages are sending in plain-text, without encryption. This option
limits remote access to the device (through SMS messages). When no telephone
number is programmed, SMS messages will be accepted from any number.
Note:
Authorization of incoming SMS message relies on comparing telephone number of
incoming message with number saved in memory of Active Track device. It is
possible to save only part of telephone number in device. In this case all telephone
numbers which contains saved sequence will be authorized. For example: saved
sequence "1234" will authorize telephone numbers such as: 600123456 or
601234567.
DT=YY/MM/DD,hh:mm
Sets date and time in the device.
TCPCONN=init,change,limit
Defines time dependencies between connections to server attempts. After first
failed attempt, next will occur according to these parameters:
init –initial time value (in minutes) after which connections attempts starts
change –defines how to change time period between attempts:
geometric progression - *x.yy, where x.yy is time in minutes with
1/100min precision
arithmetic progression - +x, where x is time in minutes
limit –maximum time between attempts
Example 1.
TCPCONN=2,+1,5
Defines that after first failed attempt, next will occur after 2 minutes. If second
try will fail, time period will be increased by 1 minute (so next attempt will occur
after 3 minutes). Time period is limited to 5 minutes (parameter: limit). Next
attempts will occur after 5 minutes periods. If server is disconnected, attempts to
connect will look like that (P means connection attempt, digit means time period
in minutes): P, 2, P, 3, P, 4, P, 5, P, 5, P, 5, P, ..........

16
Example 2.
TCPCONN=1,*1.5,4
Defines that after first failed attempt, next will occur after 1 minute. If second try
will also fail time period will by multiplied by 1.5, and next one will occur after
1.5 minutes. Each next time period will by multiplied by 1.5 until reach of 4
minutes. Next attempts will occur after 4 minutes. If server is disconnected,
attempts to connect will look like that (P means connection attempt, number
means time period in minutes): P, 1, P, 1.5, P, 2.25, P, 3.38, P, 4, P, 4, P, ..........
Default value: 1,+0,1
VOLUME=a,b,c,d,e,f,g
For each of the following events:
a) Start RFID loop
b) Read RFID confirmation
c) Discharged battery warning
d)
e) SMS message received
f)
g) prealarm signalling (eg. ManDown)
You can define one of the following method of signaling:
0 - no acoustic signal, no vibration
1 –quiet acoustic signal, no vibration
2 - loud acoustic signal, no vibration
4 –no acoustic signal, vibration
5 –quiet acoustic signal, vibration
6 –loud acoustic signal, vibration
Note: Always assign 0 to the d and f positions.
Example: VOLUME=1,2,6,5,0,5,0,6
Start RFID loop
will be defined by quiet acoustic signal without vibration,
Read RFID
confirmation
will be defined by quiet acoustic signal without vibration,
Discharged
battery warning
will be defined by loud acoustic signal with vibration etc.
Note:
It is not necessary to give all the parameters, only the first X, for example:
VOLUME=2 sets the signal only for start RFID loop, the other parameters remain
unchanged. As a consequence, to set the parameter to the position of N all
preceding parameters should also be set. For example, you can not set signaling for
"
c) Discharged battery warning
" without giving "
a) Start RFID loo
p" warning and
"
b) Read RFID confirmation
" in correct order.
TCPWDT=t
sets GPRS link control, defines times between lost of GPRS connection and reset of
GSM modem.
t - time period [in minutes, range: 5 - 999]
To disable this function t must be an empty string.

17
GSMWDT=t
Sets GSM link control, defines time between lost of GSM connection and reset of
GSM modem.
t - time period [in minutes, range: 5 - 999]
To disable this function tmust be an empty string.
GETCFG
Gets primary communication parameters of device in form: SERVER PORT APN UN
PW SMS TPERIOD
KILL
Sending this command remotely resets the device.
Example of SMS configuration text message (access code is 1111, skip quotes):
"1111 APN=PGuard.gprs UN=PGuard PW=PGuard_pass SERVER=gprs.com
PORT=6670 DT=05/12/15,13:04 TPERIOD=5"
Note:
Names of programmed parameters (e.g. SERVER) must be in upper-case letters
(see example above).
After changing configuration of Active Track, device must be restarted with
KILL command.
7.2. Configuration program
GPRS transmitters configurator program should be downloaded from
http://www.ebs.pl website (login:
ebs
, password:
