1Purpose
The purpose of this guide is to describe the basic features of the GT200.
2Introduction
2.1 What is a GT200
¾The GT200 is a wireless tracking device which operates on the CDMA network
using assisted GPS for location.
¾It is used for tracking valuable assets (such as tools, machinery, etc) in
construction sites.
2.2 How does a GT200 work
¾It establishes a data connection through either the cellular or the PCS band similar
to a mobile phone.
¾A user can send a SMS message through an internet connection or a mobile phone
to the device by calling its phone number. The device gets its location and send it
back to the user via the CDMA network.
3Getting Started
3.1 Battery Tips
Battery life depends on the network, signal strength, temperature, features, and
accessories you use.
¾Always use Sendum Original batteries and battery chargers. The warranty does
not cover damage caused by non-Sendum batteries and/or chargers.
¾New batteries or batteries stored for a long time may take more time to charge.
¾When charging your battery, keep it near room temperature.
¾When storing your battery, keep it uncharged in a cool, dark, dry place, such as a
refrigerator.
¾Never expose batteries to temperatures below -10°C (14°F) or above 45°C
(113°F). Always take your device with you when you leave your vehicle.
¾It is normal for batteries to gradually wear down and require longer charging
times. If you notice a change in your battery life, it is probably time to purchase a
new battery.
Contact your local recycling center for proper battery disposal.
Warning: Never dispose of batteries in a fire because they may explode.
Before using your device, please read the battery safety information in the Safety and
General Information section included in this guide.

¾Press “Write” to load into the device.
5GT200 Command Set
The GT200 supports the following commands. There are sent to the device using SMS
messages:
//BREW:0x12345678:PSW2,PROVISION,PDE,<ip_address>:<port>
Sets the PDE address used by the device. In control plane architectures, this is the address
of the Control Plane Server. In user plane architectures, this is the address of the actual
PDE.
//BREW:0x12345678:PSW2,PROVISION,APP,<ip_address>:<port>
Sets the APP address of used by the device. All messages from the device are sent to this
IP address.
//BREW:0x12345678:PSW2,COMMAND,STATUS
Causes the device to send a status report.
//BREW:0x12345678:PSW2,COMMAND,LOCATE
Causes the device to locate itself and send a location report.
//BREW:0x12345678:PSW2,REPORT,STATUS,<interval>
Causes the device to send a status report every <interval> seconds.
//BREW:0x12345678:PSW2,REPORT,LOCATION,<interval>
Causes the device to send a location report every <interval> seconds.
The device sends the following messages to the APP IP address:
@RESPONSE,<MDN>,PSW2,RESPONSE,STATUS,BATTERY=<0..255>,
TEMPERATURE=<0..255>
Indicates device status.
@RESPONSE,<MDN>,PSW2,RESPONSE,LOCATE,FOUND
SENDUM WIRELESS, CORP.
Indicates that the device found itself. This is in response to a command to locate the
device. Actual location results are returned from the PDE and vary from carrier to carrier.
