1 General description
1.1 Used warnings and symbols
Depending on the hazard level, the warnings and notes used in this manual have the
following meaning:
1.2 Presentation of the whole system
The EV-04 is an advanced personal emergency location device, for the elderly, disabled, or
lone worker, keeping families connected with tracking information and voice functionality.
It supports various 4G bands and falls back to 3G/2G when there is no 4G coverage.
When pressing the SOS button, the EV-04 sends an SMS message to the first recipient
with complete location details. Then, a hands-free call takes place. If the recipient does not
answer the call, the device will proceed with the next recipient set in the call sequence.
Up to 10 recipients can be defined.
A built-in 3D G-sensor can be used to trigger a “no movement alarm” or a “fall alarm”.
NOTICE
Means that damage to the equipment or an undesired condition may occur if the
recommended precautions are not taken.
INFO
General notes and additional information.

2.3 “Tracking Settings” tab
The information “Unit: S/M/H” must be set in seconds.
Working Mode
To select tracking mode.
►Mode 1 – Energy saving mode: The device only sends data to the server and enables
the GPS/WiFi/BLE when an event occurs (e.g. alarm). No need to set time interval.
►Mode 2 – Standard tracking: The device only sends data to the server according to
the defined time interval and always stays online. The user needs to set the reporting
time to the server for when the device is moving and not moving. GPS/WiFi/BLE are
enabled when the device is moving and disabled when not moving. The GPS is woken
up and the position is updated only when it needs to send data to the server, or when
an alarm needs to be transmitted.
►Mode 3 – Full tracking: The device sends data to the server according to the defined
time interval and always stays online. The user needs to set this interval. GPS is
always enabled.

© TeleAlarm SA EV-04_RM_EN_V1.1_ 2021.12_Final
►Mode 4 – Data savings: The device connects the server only at a defined time interval.
The user needs to set reporting time to the server. GPS/WiFi/BLE are only enabled
when data are sent.
►Mode 5 – Mobile off: The device connects the server at a defined time interval and
between each interval the mobile phone is offline. The user needs to set this interval.
GPS is only enabled when data are sent. During offline periods, the device is unable to
receive calls and text message. GPS/WiFi/BLE are only enabled when data are sent.
►Mode 6 – Enhanced tracking: Same as mode 2 with improved tracking performance.
As soon as motion is detected, the GPS is woken up and its position is thereafter
continuously updated. Which saves time when the position has to be transmitted.
Heartbeat interval
To check the server connection at regular interval (only applicable for modes 1, 2 and 3).
Value range: 60 to 86,400 seconds. The heartbeat packet function is used to keep the
Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) connection open when the interval of scheduled
GPRS reporting is long.
Continuous locate
Continuous locate is only activated when an alarm is triggered, such as the SOS alarm or
fall alarms. After the defined duration time is finished, the unit goes back to normal working
mode. For example, if the time interval is set to 10 seconds, and the duration time is set to
300 seconds, then the device will keep sending reports every 10 seconds to the “server IP”
defined on the same page, for a period of 300 seconds.
Server
If a specific server is used, it can be set here.
SMS URL
SMS message link format. No changes are necessary.

nearby WiFi hotspots and other wireless access points to discover where the device is
located.
6. Bluetooth positioning: Allow usage of Bluetooth locator beacons, like the charging
base DS3.
7. LBS positioning: Allow usage of Location-Based Service which is a tracking system
that uses mobile phone signal.
8. Speaker switches during SOS talking: Allow the usage of the device speaker during
an SOS alarm (SOS button). ON=two way calling, OFF=Speaker off.
9. Speaker switches during CALL 1 talking: Allow the usage of the device speaker
during a phone call (CALL button). ON=two way calling, OFF=Speaker off.
10. Bluetooth always connect to charging base: When the Bluetooth disconnects for
whatever reason, it automatically reconnects when the connection is available again.
11. Allow update firmware automatically: Self-explanatory.
12. Beacon: For indoor location via BLE connection between the device and the beacon.
The beacon is a tiny wireless device broadcasting BLE signal 24/7. See “Beacon
Setting” tab.
13. Home WiFi positioning: For location via WiFi connection. See “Home WiFi” tab.
14. Long SMS: When an SMS sent to the EV-04 is too long, some SIM cards do not
support it, so the message is split into two SMS. In that case, please turn on "long
SMS" to solve this issue.
15. LT: Deactivated in the TeleAlarm EV-04 to protect yourself from unethical or illegal
spying.
