PART B: ACTIVATION
1. Overview
The SmartOne SolarTM device requires activation following installation. Activation, de-
activation and re-activation of the unit are simple and fast. Before use, fully charge the
device by leaving it in sunlight or under incandescent light for 15-30 minutes.
2. Activation
A black rubberized tag that holds a magnet is delivered with the SmartOne SolarTM device.
The magnet acts as an OFF/ON switch. The tag conforms to the shape of the device and is
located on the front of the device below the solar cells. When this tag is attached to the
device, the device remains in the OFF position and is NOT activated. When the tag is
removed, the device is activated and is ready to message.
3. Messaging
Remove the magnet tag when in full view of the sky in order for the device to acquire a GPS
fix. The unit is now activated and ready for use. Once activated, the device will send
location messages, when assigned to asset in the RG Tracker Web Portal, to the satellite
network until such time as the magnet tag is replaced.
4. Charging
The device receives a full charge within 15-30 minutes of exposure to daylight or
incandescent light. Even on cloudy or overcast days, the unit will continuously charge. The
device remains active for 60 days if there is no exposure to light. However, the device
should be exposed to daylight regularly so it retains a full charge. You cannot overcharge the
device.
5. De-activation
To turn the device OFF, replace the magnet tag to its original position on the front of the
device. This will prevent messages from being generated by the unit.
