2Product Overview
The T311 is an anti-theft GPS tracking device specially designed for motorcycles and electric vehicles. The T311
is equipped with a wireless remote control and a buzzer, so that vehicle arming, disarming, and keyless start
can be implemented. In arming state, if a vehicle is faulty, the buzzer will generate an alarm, and thus the
engine is stopped and the vehicle is locked to prevent stealing.

5.4.2 Setting a Function Phone Number
SMS sending: 0000,A71,Phone number 1,Phone number 2,Phone number 3
SMS Responding: IMEI,A71,OK
Description:
A function phone number has a maximum of 16 bytes. Phone numbers are empty by default.
Set phone number 1 to an SOS phone number. When the tracker is called by using the phone number, SMSs of
locations, geo-fence alarms, low power alarms, and speeding alarms are received, and calls and SMSs of car
towing and stealing alarms are received.
If all function phone numbers need to be deleted, send 0000,A71.
When the SOS button is pressed, the tracker dials phone numbers 1, 2, and 3 in sequence. The tracker stops
dialing when a phone number responds.
Example: 0000,A71,13811111111,13822222222,13833333333
Responding: 353358017784062,A71,OK

5.5.2 RF Remote Control Code Matching Function
If the remote control does not match the tracker, match the code manually. There are the following two code
matching modes:
1. ACC code matching mode
a) In disarming state, turn the vehicle key in the lock for 8 times from ACC OFF to ACC ON, and stay on
the ACC ON state. After 3s, the buzzer will sound “bi” 3 times to enter the code matching state.
Note that if it takes more than 3s to turn the key twice, the number of key turning times will
recount.
b) Press any key on one remote control. If the buzzer sounds 3 times, the code is matched successfully.
Then press any key on the other remote control, the buzzer sounds 3 times. In this way, you can
exit the code matching state. If a same remote control is pressed twice, code matching performed
later for other remote controls does not take effect.
c) The code matching must be completed within 20s. Otherwise, the code matching state exits
automatically.
d) When more than one remote controls are implemented code matching, if a same remote control is
pressed twice, code matching performed later for other remote controls does not take effect.
2. Command code matching mode
a) Send the SMS/GPRS command 000,B24,1 to enter the code matching state. After the tracker
receives the command, the buzzer will sound 3 times.
b) If you have two remote controls, press any key on one remote control. If the buzzer sounds "bi" 3
times, the code is matched successfully. Then press any key on the other remote control, the
buzzer sounds 3 times. In this way, you can exit the code matching state.
c) The code matching must be completed within 20s. Otherwise, the code matching state exits
automatically.
d) When more than one remote controls are implemented code matching, if a same remote control is
pressed twice, code matching performed later for other remote controls does not take effect.
