nu•m8+ User Guide V1.06

Preface
Thank you for purchasing nu•m8+,the world‟s first location device specifically designed to be
worn by children.
It is my hope that nu•m8+ will make parents feel more comfortable in allowing their children to
play un-supervised, so that “kids can be kids” and enjoy the benefits of being free to interact
with their peers through unstructured play.
I know, like you, that the social environment in which our children are growing up can, at times,
be perilous and therefore we all want to make sure our children are safe and free from harm.
nu•m8+ does not make the environment safer but will allow you to know where your children
are, control the areas in which they play and be the first to know if they are at risk.
Please read this simple user guide carefully to get the best out of your nu•m8+ and remember
it is an aid to parental care and control; it must not be regarded as a substitute.
As a parent myself, it was the urge to keep my children safe, whilst letting them enjoy the
freedom of childhood that I enjoyed that spurred the development of nu•m8+.
I know that it will live up to your expectations but if there are any suggestions that you think
would be sensible to incorporate, I will give them my full attention. I can be contacted at
[email protected]m.

nu•m8+ User Guide V1.06

1. Introduction
nu•m8+ is the world‟s first GPS locator device specifically designed to be worn by children.
Launched by UK location service‟s company, Lok8u Ltd, this new GPS child locator is cleverly
concealed within a child‟s digital watch. Its unique design features ensure that the parent
locates their child, not the technology.
nu•m8+ is innovative and fundamentally different to other products available in the market. It
does not rely upon the child to be responsible enough to keep their locator with them in a bag or
pocket. Instead, when nu•m8+ is securely fastened to a child‟s wrist it stays there unless
deactivated by a parent. Parents can therefore be assured that wherever nu•m8+ is, their child
is.
Please note that nu•m8+ should not be regard as a substitute for parental care
and supervision.
2. Product Design and Functionality Summary
As far as the child is concerned, nu•m8+ is a digital watch. For parents it has been designed
with simplicity and ease of use in mind.
A Lok8u secure Customer Portal is also available on the internet and will be accessible
worldwide from any PC. Each user will have a user name and password and will have the
ability to request and display the child‟s location as an icon on Google maps with street address
and postal code. The nu•m8+ technology is accessible at home, abroad or on holiday from
any computer or mobile phone.
To locate the child, simply text “wru” from a mobile phone to the nu•m8+ or click “Where ru” on
the Lok8u secure Customer Portal. The child‟s location is then presented as an icon on Google
maps and/or the street address and postal code is displayed.
In addition, parents can set unique “Safe Zones“, in which their child can safely play. This
function is activated simply by texting “safe”, followed by a number, which represents the metre
radius for the child‟s safe area, to nu•m8+, or selecting a “Safe Zone”from the Lok8u secure
portal. As long as the child remains in this area no alerts will be sent and the parent can still
communicate with the device using the “wru” function. However, if they stray a priority alert will
be sent to the parent‟s mobile phone and / or email address.
When the nu•m8+ device is forcibly removed from the child‟s wrist an alert, “Strap
Compromised”,is sent immediately to a designated mobile phone and / or email address with
the child‟s location to give parents an early warning of potential danger.
The device can only be removed from the wrist, without triggering an alarm, when de-activated
by the authorised parent/guardian. A “Home Zone” can also be configured for easy and safe
removal of the nu•m8+.

nu•m8+ will now go through its activation process and log on to the mobile phone network.
This is shown by a message “Loading” and a black bar moving around the four sides of the LCD
display, as indicated below. (Please note that it may be necessary to take nu•m8+ outside to
enable this process to complete.)
Monitor the status of the LCD display when nu•m8+ has been switched On. If the screen
shows „Loading‟ but the black bar is not moving around the sides of the LCD display, then
nu•m8+ is not acquiring a mobile phone signal. Take nu•m8+ to a know area that has good
mobile phone signal / coverage or take nu•m8+ outside to acquire the mobile phone signal.
Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4
Step 1 –Found and Connect to a mobile phone network
Step 2 –Internal GPS check OK
Step 3 –GPRS connection made
Step 4 –Full Service Communication completed and successful.
Once the activation is successful the time will display on the LCD display; leave for 10 minutes
to synchronise your nu•m8+.
For first time activation, nu•m8+ may defaults to GMT (Greenwich Mean Time), depending on
configuration.
When you turn nu•m8+ On, it may show a discrepancy of one hour or a couple of hours,
depending on your location and time zone. To adjust the time, see Section 5, Time
Configuration, for configuration. (See Section 4, nu•m8+ Start-up, for more detail.).
You will only have to do this configuration once, nu•m8+ will remember the setting and will
start-up with the correct time thereafter.

nu•m8+ User Guide V1.06

IT IS CRITICAL THAT IN ORDER TO COMPLETE THE ACTIVATION PROCESS
THE FOLLOWING 3 STEPS ARE FOLLOWED.
STEP 1
When switching nu•m8+ ON for the first time, the GPS needs learn the satellite location in your
area, in order to obtain a GPS location.
To enable the GPS functionality of your nu•m8+, place nu•m8+ outside with good line of sight
and clear view of the sky. Go to the portal and click “Live Track” and select an update rate of
“2 minutes”. Leave the device in this mode until the portal map shows the GPS icon ( ). For
the first time set up, it can take up to 45 minutes.
Please note that GPS systems require good line of sight and clear view of the
sky in order to achieve a GPS location.
Please note the following information regarding the operation of the GPS receiver:
When a GPS is new (from factory), has been turned Off for a long period of time, or has been
transported for a long distance since it was turned On, it will take longer to get a "Time to First
Fix" (TTFF), because the GPS must update its almanac and ephemeris data and store it in
memory.
Time to First Fix (TTFF) describes the time and process required for a GPS device to acquire
enough usable satellite signals and data to provide accurate locations.
A GPS must have three sets of data before it can provide accurate locations: GPS satellite
signals, almanac data, and ephemeris data.
The GPS almanac is a set of data that every GPS satellite transmits, and it includes information
about the state (health) of the entire GPS satellite constellation, and coarse data on every
satellite's orbit. When a GPS receiver has current almanac data in memory, it can acquire
satellite signals and determine initial position more quickly.
When the GPS comes from the factory, the receiver has no knowledge whatsoever of almanac
data in turn to locate the satellites and retrieve ephemeris data. For a full almanac to be
downloaded, it can take approximately 15 minutes, but can take up to 45 minutes.
One thing to bear in mind is that the average time for First Time to Fix (TTFF) will vary.
Depending on where you are can dramatically change the quickness of acquiring a satellite
lock. To load the ephemeris data from the satellites, the GPS receiver requires a full 30 seconds
of data reception. If this is interrupted from a tall building, or a branch from a tree, or if the signal
you are receiving is being reflected off of a building then all of this can cause a problem in the
data reception. If the data isn‟t received in full, the ephemeris data collection has to start again
at the next cycle.
A "cold" start refers to a situation in which the GPS must acquire all data in order to start
navigation, and may take up to 15 minutes.

nu•m8+ User Guide V1.06
14
A "warm" start means the GPS has most of the data it needs in memory, and will start quickly -
a minute or less.
GPS receivers cannot receive a signal underground, underwater, under any conductive type
material like metal, indoors or become inaccurate under thick glass as the signal travels slower
through glass.
The accuracy of a GPS location depends on the amount of satellites it can receive signals from.
The minimum satellites required to provide a GPS location is four.
STEP 2
Log in to the Customer Portal and click the “Switch Off” button to turn nu•m8+ “Off”.(See
Section 6, Customer Portal Login, for more detail on the Customer Portal Log In, for your
selected country.) When this action has completed the “Off” button on the Customer Portal will
be filled and the LCD display on nu•m8+ will be blank.
Disconnect the strap from the housing using the release tool provided.
nu•m8+ is now ready for normal use.
Please note that it is recommended to always “Switch Off”
nu•m8+ before disconnecting the strap from the housing.
Release Strap
STEP 3
Adjust the strap to fit your child‟s wrist. Use the release tool located in the back of the desk-top
charger base to un-do and re-do the locking screw in the strap. It is important that the strap is
tight enough so that it cannot be slipped over the hand, but not so tight that it is uncomfortable.
The strap is adjusted as follows:
Release Tool Un-do Locking Screw Adjust Strap and
Re-do Locking Screw
Tool

nu•m8+ User Guide V1.06
15
Your nu•m8+ is now ready to be used.
Simply place nu•m8+ around your child‟s wrist, insert and
lock the open end of the strap into the housing of the
nu•m8+, as indicated.
The back plate of the nu•m8+ is manufactured from Stainless Steel. If you
child has a know allergic reaction to Stainless Steel and or Nickel, the Self
adhesive 3M medical label, supplied in the packaging, must be applied to the
back plate of the nu•m8+, before placing nu•m8+ around your child‟s wrist.
Stainless steel contains nickel, but it is bound in such a way that makes stainless steel
safe for most nickel-sensitive individuals.
3.4 nu•m8+ Battery
When charging nu•m8+ for the first time, it is advised that you charge nu•m8+ the full 8 hours
to ensure that the battery is fully charged. The charging time after the initial charge is
approximately 2 hours.
Like any battery operated device, the more you use it the shorter the battery life is of the device.
The expected battery life of the device in standby is between 24-30 hours.
The following will have an effect on the battery life of your nu•m8+:
Poor GSM coverage or handshaking between multiple base stations, i.e. during a car
journey will also consume extra battery power.
Powering up the GPS module consumes the most power. It is expected that 5-10 “wru”
requests, when outdoors, will give you 14-18 hours of battery life. It is expected that 5-10
“wru” requests, when indoors, will give you 10-12 hours of battery life.
It is expected that when configured for “Live Track” or “Safe Zone” with intervals of 10
minutes, the battery life will be 4-5 hours.
Battery not fully charged. It is imperative to ensure that the battery is fully charged before
using the device.

nu•m8+ User Guide V1.06

4. nu•m8+ Start-up
It is recommended to ensure that nu•m8+ is fully charged and that the correct
time display on nu•m8+ before you let your child out to play.
When the correct time display on nu•m8+, it is a visible indication that nu•m8+ is connected to
the mobile phone (GSM) network. If you have poor network coverage at home, this process
may not complete successfully.
When you turn nu•m8+ On, it may show a discrepancy of one hour, depending on your location
and time zone. To adjust the time, see Section 5, Time Configuration, for configuration. You
will only have to do this configuration once, nu•m8+ will remember the setting and will start-up
with the correct time thereafter.
Place nu•m8+ around your child‟s wrist and push the strap to lock it in place. nu•m8+ will go
through an automatic start-up process to check the status of the core functions of the product
(GPS, GSM, battery, valid subscription) and update any status changes that you have recently
made on the Customer Portal, such as alert information, Safe Zone etc. This is shown by a
message “Loading” and a black bar moving around the four sides of the LCD display, as
indicated in Section 3.3, Activate nu•m8+.
When this process is completed the time will appear as a digital clock
display. To adjust the clock settings, see Section 5, Time
Configuration, for configuration.
If the clock does not appear, nu•m8+ is not connected to the mobile
phone (GSM) network. The most common reason for this is poor
mobile phone coverage. If you take your child outside this will help
it to acquire the necessary signal strength. Once coverage is
established, nu•m8+ will hold the signal even in areas where it
couldn‟t get signal at boot-up.
If you have taken nu•m8+ off your child during the start-up sequence the watch will think it is in
“Strap Compromise”. You will be notified by a “Strap Compromise” text alert (SMS) and the
Customer Portal will show a strap alert. It will be necessary to turn nu•m8+ “Off”'
using “Switch Off”from the portal or texting “Off”from the approved mobile phone and wait for
the LCD display to go blank on nu•m8+. You should then initiate the start-up process again.
If you have taken nu•m8+ off during the start-up process and don‟t get a “Strap Compromise”
alert then re-insert the strap in to the housing and gently press the Reset button on the back
plate. nu•m8+ will then go through the start-up process again.
When the clock appears on the LCD display, nu•m8+ has logged on to the mobile phone
(GSM) network and you must now go to the Customer Portal and send nu•m8+ the “Switch
Off”command.

nu•m8+ User Guide V1.06
