Things you will need before you begin:
Included with each unit is an Installation Worksheet or you can find a copy on our website.
The worksheet asks you to collect the following info:
oThe Text-N-Track H1000 serial number
(This is the 20-digit number on the unit label - write it down!)
oThe Text-N-Track H1000 Unit Phone Number
(This is the unit’s 10-digit “phone number” listed on the label - write it down!)
oThe Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and its license plate
oThe vehicle description: Make, Model, Year, and Color
oThe customer’s full contact info, including name, address, cell phone number and cellular
service provider, and email address
It is best to have access to the Internet to register each newly-installed Haas GPS unit. If you plan
to install a Haas GPS unit at a location where Internet access is not easily available, you can
register it BEFORE installing it. Use the Installation Worksheet to ensure that accurate vehicle
information is assigned to each unit.
It is also helpful to have a cell phone that is capable of sending and receiving text messages -
you can use it for testing the Text-N-Track H1000.

2. PHYSICAL INSTALLATION
The Haas GPS monitoring unit is self-contained. It does not require an external antenna. Both the
GPS antenna and the cellular antenna are built-in. A Basic Installation requires only three wired
connections: one wire for Power (constant 12Volt), one for Ignition and the last one for Ground. The
Basic Installation consists of three simple steps: A) finding a place to position the monitoring unit, B)
testing for signal strength, and C) mounting the unit in place and providing power.
A: PLACEMENT
First, find a location for the Haas GPS monitoring unit. The unit must be placed in a horizontal
position with its label facing up to ensure that the built-in antennae can receive signals. It should not
be located directly underneath any metal. However, plastic, fiberglass, glass and cloth coverings are
acceptable. Following those guidelines, there are many places where the Haas GPS monitoring unit
can be positioned.
• Connect the BLACK wire from the wiring harness to a proper grounding point. Check with a
meter if you are not sure.
• Connect the RED wire from the wiring harness to a constant 12-volt positive power.
• Connect the YELLOW wire from the wiring harness to 12-volt ignition.
B: POWER UP UNIT AND TEST FOR SIGNAL
Make sure the back-up battery switch is in the OFF position. The battery switch is located on top of
the unit. The vehicle should be located outdoors and away from large obstructions, such as tall
buildings, that could block GPS signals. Place the monitoring unit in the desired position, making sure
you can see the red and green LEDs.
When the monitoring unit receives power, the LEDs will begin flashing. The GREEN LED will stop
flashing after it has locked onto its cellular signal (may take up to 5 minutes depending on cellular and
Note: Be sure not to use T-Taps orScotch Locks.
Notes:
Make sure that the vehicle’s windows are not covered with any reflective metallic film
that could block GPS signals.
The windshields and/or windows of certain types of vehicles (including some
Mercedes-Benz models and some BMWs) may have coated glass that can impede
radio signals from penetrating the vehicle. If you are not sure about the windows, use
the signal test procedure described above to find an acceptable installation position
for the Text-N-Track H1000 monitoring unit.

GPS coverage); and the RED LED will stop flashing when it locks onto its GPS signal (may take up to
5 minutes depending on cellular and GPS coverage). Signal strength is confirmed when both LEDs
stop flashing.
If the LEDs do not stop flashing, the Haas GPS monitoring unit should be re-positioned in another
location. Find another location for the monitoring unit and confirm that the signal strength is
acceptable before proceeding to the next step.
C: MOUNTING THE UNIT
After confirming an appropriate location for the Haas GPS monitoring unit by successfully checking its
signal strength, you are now ready to mount the unit in place. Remember, the unit must be positioned
horizontally with the label side up.
After the Haas GPS monitoring unit has been mounted in place make sure that you switch the
Back-up Battery switch to the ON position.
Congratulations! You’ve completed the physical installation. It is now time for the final test.

3. FINAL TESTING
Each Text-N-Track H1000 unit should be tested before delivery to the customer. You can test the unit
either by using an Internet browser or by using a text messaging-enabled cell phone. Both methods
are described below.
A. Using an Internet browser to test the Text-N-Track H1000
Use your browser to go to the following site: www.haasgps.com. Click on the Track My Car tab, and
then click where it says, click here.
The page will look something like this:
This is the same website that was previously used for registering the new customer. This time you will
log in as an Existing Customer. Under the “Existing Customers” section, input the customer’s email
address and the password (1234). You will then be taken to the customer’s Home Page. The Home
Page will look much like this:
Note: Move vehicle outside with a clear view of the sk

the unit.

Page 12
Check the information to verify that the vehicle description is accurate. Move the cursor to the far right
side of the page to column marked “Vehicle Control,” and then click on the field marked “Control.”
You will then be taken to the Vehicle Control Page, which looks much like this:
This page allows users to locate, track, and remotely control their vehicle. The features are easy to
use and generally self-explanatory.
The final test for each newly-installed Text-N-Track H1000 unit is to command it to report its current
location. Simply click on the box marked “Get Location Now.” The system will inform you that you are
about to send a message to the remote unit, and it will ask you to confirm your decision. Click “Yes”.

Page 13
Shortly thereafter, a NEW Location Report will appear. Receipt of an accurate Location Report will
verify that the Text-N-Track H1000 unit is operating properly and is ready to be delivered to the customer.
Congratulations! You’ve completed the physical installation, the registration, and final test. You are now
ready to deliver the system to your customer.
Note: If you submitted any personal information – such as your own cell phone number –
during the registration process, please remember to remove it before delivering the system to
your customer.
B. Using a cell phone to test the Text-N-Track H1000
Note: Instructions for creating and sending text messages from cell phones are beyond the
scope of this document. This guide assumes that reader is already familiar with text
messaging. This guide provides the necessary information to enable a reader with text-
messaging skills to send commands to a remote monitoring unit and to receive reports from it.
If you are already familiar with text-messaging, you can also use a text-enabled cell phone to test the
Text-N-Track H1000. The test will consist of using a cell phone to send a “Locate Now” command to
the remote Text-N-Track H1000 unit, and receiving a response from it on a cell phone. Here’s how
you can use a cell phone to perform the final test:
-Configuration:During the online registration process, you must use the Configuration Page to
specify the cell phone for sending and receiving messages. After the cell phone has been
specified on the Configuration Page, you can use it to send a “Locate Now” command to the
Text-N-Track H1000 unit.
-Message Format:The format for the “Locate Now” command consists of the password,
followed by a single blank space, followed by the digit 1.
oThe password was previously specified on the Configuration Page. For new customers,
the password is always set to 1234
oA single blank space should separate the password from the command
oThe command for “Locate Now” is the digit 1.
The message format for a new customer sending a “Locate Now” command message from a
cell phone is therefore as follows: 1234 1 (NOTE: There is a space between password and
command)
-Phone Number: The text message should be directed to the Text-N-Track H1000 unit’s
Mobile Identification Number (this is its 10-digit “phone number”).
Using a text-enabled cell phone, send the “Locate Now” command to the Text-N-Track H1000 unit.
Again, the message should consist of the following: 1234 1

Page 14
You should receive the Location Report message on the cell phone shortly thereafter. The message
will originate from “[email protected]” and it will include the vehicle’s location, as well as
the date and time of the message. At times, network congestion may cause delivery delays.
Receipt of the Location Report indicates that the Text-N-Track H1000 unit is operating properly.
Note: Other commands are also available. The full list of commands and their “command
codes” are as follows:
•Locate 1
•Door Lock 2(Optional)
•Door Unlock 3(Optional)
•Honk Horn / Flash lights 4 (Optional)
•Live Track 5
All commands follow the same format: password, followed by a blank space, followed by the
command digit.
Please note that the Door Lock, Door Unlock, and Honk Horn/Flash Lights commands require
an Advanced Installation.
Congratulations! You’ve completed the physical installation, the registration, and final test. You are
now ready to deliver the system to your customer.

WHITE + ALARM SENSE
CAR FINDER HORN/LIGHTS – This pulsating negative output may
need relay(s) to sound the vehicle’s horns or flash its parking lights.
For dual circuit parking lights connect a second light relay that is
driven off the first one, otherwise one relay for lights and one relay
for horns. Observe polarities.
IGNITON – This is a 12V current sensing input that connects to the
12V output of the vehicle’s ignition. Presence of 12V signal on this
input alerts the tracker when the vehicle is turned on and the key is
in the ignition.
THIS WIRE MUST BE CONNECTED FOR THE TRACKING
SYSTEM TO WORK PROPERLY.
Starter Interrupt (-) – The ORANGE wire provides a latched ground
output signal. When this feature is activated it will cause an optional
relay to open when an attempt is made to start the engine, thus
preventing the starter from operating until another signal is sent to
the Text-N-Track H1000 to remove the ground signal from the
ORANGE wire. This is designed specifically to interrupt starters.
DOOR LOCK COMMAND – This is a conventional NEGATIVE door
lock output designed to be connected to factory or aftermarket door
lock actuators.
This output may also be used for remote starters.
DOOR UNLOCK COMMAND – This is a conventional NEGATIVE
door unlock output designed to be connected via a relay to factory
or aftermarket door lock actuators.
THEFT ALARM – Theft alarm sense input – Alarm sounding devices
normally are powered by 12 volts positive, and are monitored by the
Haas GPS monitoring unit 12 volt positive input. When the sounding
device is powered for 15 or more seconds it causes the monitoring
unit to send an alert message to the owner. Should the sounding
device be negatively driven, use a relay to invert the polarity. To
prevent unintended messages from being sent, only one message is
sent to the customer.
