Product description
Hogyan működik a
nyomkövetés a Flexcom-
nál?
The device combines several
functions of accurate
positioning, safety,
monitoring, emergency
alarms and full tracking. It
supports GPRS / Internet
data transfer functions and
can be widely used in many
areas of location-based
services, traffic safety and
management.
Based on its design and
mounting, the device is
primarily designed to track
bicycles - as a result, its
users are primarily vehicle
owners (adults or children).
Settings that affect the operation of the device can only be changed from another device
(smartphone, computer) with the help of our software application - so users can be sure that the
device always works according to the parameters they specify.

2022/09/09 09:03 5/21 Installation and operating instructions
Flexcom wiki - https://wiki.nyomkovetes.net/
How to use
The device has a built-in SIM card that can be used anywhere in the world, a strong battery and a
rugged, waterproof aluminum cover that is resistant to external influences. With the help of the built-
in motion sensor, you can receive an immediate alarm if the device or the bicycle is moved by
unauthorized persons. It works continuously, it cannot be switched off. When discharged, it turns on
automatically when the charger is connected.
The device can be mounted under the bottle holder of the bicycle with special custom safety screws
manufactured by us. Communication is via the SIM card built into the device and the internet
connection provided by the mobile service providers. The current position of the device, previous
route, statistics, etc. are provided by the computer or mobile phone application we have developed.
The device is already set up and handed over ready for use. After commissioning, the device
automatically connects to the GPS / BEIDOU and GSM networks (if available) using the satellite
receiver and SIM card and starts collecting position data.
When switched on
The device continuously registers position data, which can be queried with SMS commands at a
limited level.
The device sends the position data to the software service center - their processed results (eg
map route display, list of route events, real-time tracking) - can be viewed in the phone or
computer application.
You can find detailed information on the installation, use, maintenance and decommissioning of the
device in the further sections of the documentation.
The device is protected by a safety label - it must not be disassembled, as breaking the
insulation may damage the device and void the warranty. The built-in SIM card in your
device cannot be replaced at home. If you wish to transfer the device to another person,
please contact our customer service to make the necessary settings!

Micro USB connector
Charging cable connector.
Charging the battery
The device is powered by a built-in battery, which needs to be charged at different intervals
depending on the intensity of use.
The corresponding USB charging cable is included in the package. It is connected to the tracking
device via a MICRO USB connector - if you do not use the factory cable, make sure that it is type-
compliant!
Charging takes 2-3 hours, during which the LED indicator lights up red. When the device is fully
charged, the light turns off.
When the battery is fully charged, disconnect the charging cable. The device does NOT
have overcharge protection, so prolonged or continuous charging will shorten the life of
the device or, in worse cases, damage it.
For the device with a voltage of 5V 1 Use a charger that provides current. Chargers with
a higher capacity can damage the battery.

Switching on and off
The device switches on automatically when charged and runs continuously until the battery is
discharged - it cannot be switched off.
After switching on, the device starts searching for GPS satellites immediately. If the appropriate
satellite connections are available, positioning will be based on these data. If not, the device performs
position calculation (LBS) based on the position of the transmission towers of the mobile service
providers.
Normal operation of the device
Separate software is available for setting or adjusting the operating parameters of the device, for
retrieving information or for using more advanced services (eg map route display, waiting and travel
points, diagrams, timetable, etc.). This is provided by the distributor in the form of an application that
can be downloaded on an Android mobile phone as part of a subscription system on a desktop
computer and tablet browser.
To use the software, an active internet connection is required on your device (mobile
phone, computer).
Setting options via the software
When using the desktop or mobile application of Flexcom Kft, the setup operations related to tracing
can be accessed in the following ways.
The settings and commands that can be issued depend on the type of device. See the
rest of this guide for information on options for this device.
