3.2 Working Mode
The device supports 3 working modes to reduce power consumption and extend battery life.
1) Long Standby Mode (default): In this mode, you can set at most 24 time points for the device, such as 06:00,
07:15 or 08:50. At the preset time point, the device will automatically send a piece of positioning data to the
tracking platform, and then it will automatically enter the sleep mode. At other time points, the device will not

send data. The standby time varies depending on network conditions. The longest standby time is 260 hours.
2) SOS Mode: In this mode, the device will send alerts and location information only when the SOS button is
pressed. Then it will automatically enter the sleep mode and will not send data.
In this mode, you can enable the man down alert. The man down alert is valid only in this mode. After the alert is
enabled and a man down alert is triggered, the device will be woken up automatically and will send a piece of
positioning data to the tracking platform. Then it will enter the sleep mode. The standby time varies depending on
the alert and network conditions. The longest standby time is 260 hours.

MEITRACK P66 User Guide

3) Normal Mode: In this mode, the device will send a piece of data at a specific time interval (60 seconds by default)
to the tracking platform. Five minutes after the device stops moving (no vibration detected), it will
automatically enter the sleep mode. In the sleep mode, the device will send a heartbeat packet at a specific
time interval (60 minutes by default). The standby time varies depending on network conditions. The longest
standby time is 150 hours.
Note:
a) In the previous 3 working modes, you can select 3D Shake Wake Up on Meitrack Manager software. When the
device enters the sleep mode, it will be woken up automatically once it detects vibration. Meanwhile, it will
send a piece of positioning data to the tracking platform.

b) The working mode can be set by Meitrack Manager only, while the wakeup by vibration, man down alert (only
valid in SOS mode) and heartbeat packet time interval can be set by Meitrack Manager or SMS command.
