Basic information
• AutoGRAPH-ST is an autonomous anti-thief device intended for acquisition
of the exact coordinates of assets and delivery of the coordinates to the
customer by SMS, Email and GPRS.
• The customer can track asset in real-time using the AutoGRAPH-Web
application.
• The compact form factor makes the device easy to install and difcult to
detect.
• The autonomous power supply is enough to send 1200 messages. Under
normal usage the battery life time is up to 2 years.
• Operation of the device is organized in such way that the device is in
Standby mode most of time. The AutoGRAPH-ST switches to Operation
mode for acquisition of asset coordinates and delivery to the customer.
The device will then switch to Standby mode until next period of Operation
mode. First of all such behaviour extends battery life time. Secondly, it makes
detection by GSM/GPS scanners more difcult by limiting operational time.

Device Functions
Most of the time the AutoGRAPH-ST device is in Standby mode. When the
device is in Standby mode, the GNSS receiver and GSM modem are turned
off, so communication with the device is unavailable. At preset intervals, the
device switches to Operation mode to acquire the location and send the
position to the customer.
In Operation mode, the device acquires its coordinates from satellites, records
them into internal memory, sends collected data to the customer via enabled
channels and receives control commands which were sent to the device
during Standby mode. After performing all of the preset tasks, the device
switches to Standby mode until the next period of Operation mode.
This method of operation prolongs the life of the battery and reduces the risk
of device detection by a GSM scanner.
AutoGRAPH-ST devices have several groups of pre-set settings called proles
which customize the device for different applications. The customer can select
one of default proles or a personalized User prole. Detailed information on
proles is given in the «Proles» section.
«Test» button
The «Test» button forces the device into Operation mode:
• a short press initiates data transfer via enabled paths to preset recipients.
Immediately after transmission, the device switches back to Standby mode.
In this case all data transfer periods are reset.
• a long press (more than 2 sec) activates Operation mode for 20 seconds.
During this time the customer can send new settings to the device using
remote control commands. A second press before 20 seconds has elapsed
will force the device back into Standby mode. Data will not be transferred
when in operation mode after a long press.
Use of the «Test» button allows the customer to setup the device and to check
its operation before installation on an asset.

Coordinate acquisition
When the device is in Operation mode, it determines its position using
global navigation system GLONASS and GPS (NAVSTAR). If it is unable to
determine its position using GNSS, the device will determine its approximate
GSM localization using the Yandex.Locator Service. Position accuracy, when
xing in relation to a GSM base station, can attain 1 km in city and 30 km in
the country.
If GPRS or Yandex.Locator Service are not available, the device will send
the characteristics of the base station which it is connected to and the
characteristics of the six nearest stations.
Recording the data
The device can be specied to acquire and record current coordinates
into internal memory without sending it to the customer. The period of data
recording is congurable and can be set using SMS command or the
AGSTConf program.
If the device’s current prole enables data transfer to a data server, all collected
data will be transferred to the server in the next period of data transmission.
Also the collected data can be read via USB into the AutoGRAPH Dispatch
Software.
Along with the device coordinates, ambient temperature, battery voltage and
speed are also saved in the internal memory.
Data transmission
The AutoGRAPH-ST is capable of transferring data to a data server by GPRS,
to telephone numbers by SMS and to email addresses by Email.
If data transfer to a server is enabled, the device will transfer current position
and collected data from the internal memory to the specied server. If
the device is unable to transfer data to the server, e.g. because of GPRS
unavailability, the device will retry during the next transmission period.

Current position coordinates can be sent to the customer by SMS and Email.
Along with the coordinates, the device sends speed, battery voltage level,
ambient temperature, number of visible satellites, positioning accuracy in
case of xing using LBS and total number of SMS sent at last switch on. The
device is able to send SMS messages to 3 different telephone numbers and
Email messages to 4 addresses in one period of Operation mode.
Coordinates can be send to the customer as a link to the online mapping
service (Google Maps or Yandex Maps) or the customer can set up the
AutoGRAPH-ST to send longitude and latitude values without a link.
Motion detection
Depending on the hardware version, AutoGRAPH-ST devices may be
equipped with a built-in accelerometer.
The accelerometer can detect motion, device overturning and impact effects
on the device and notify the customer. To provide quick notication, the device
sends rst SMS without coordinates and after position acquisition it sends
second SMS with asset coordinates.
To check whether the device has an accelerometer, the customer can use the
AGSTConf program or send an SMS request to the AutoGRAPH-ST.
Additional functions
• Delay of Standby mode. This allows the device to stay in Operation mode
after sending an SMS for a specied amount of the time between 3 and 10
minutes. This can be used for sending new settings to the device after it has
switched to Operation mode and sent it’s current position data by SMS.
• Balance inquiry. The device can be set up to send the balance of the
SIM card to the customer in the SMS and Email with the coordinates. The
customer can check the balance of the SIM card themselves by sending a
control command to the device. The device can also be set up to send a
notication if the balance falls below a preset amount.

AutoGRAPH-ST •USER MANUAL

• Indicator switch off. The AutoGRAPH-ST is equipped with three LEDs
intended to indicate device operation. The indicators can be completely
switched off to extend battery life. This can be done using control commands
or the AGSTConf program.
• Geofencing with notication by SMS.
Depending on the rmware revision, the device may not support all features.
It is recommended that the latest rmware is used at all times.
Real-time tracking
The customer can track asset movement in real-time using «AutoGRAPH-
Web» application. This application can be run on any web enabled mobile
device.
A personal login and password for access into the application are given to the
customer when purchasing the device.
It is recommended to use the «AutoGRAPH MOBILE» application for Android
and iOS devices. «AutoGRAPH MOBILE» offers the same functionality as the
«AutoGRAPH-Web» application and can be downloaded for free from Google
Play on Android or the App Store on iOS.

Profiles
The AutoGRAPH-ST has ve standard proles which customize the device for
different applications. Each prole customizes settings such as transmission
time or period and methods. At specied intervals or at a scheduled time the
device acquires its location and sends the location data to the customer. After
sending the SMS the device stays in Operation mode for a preset amount of
time before returning to Standby mode. During the delay the device is able
to receive and process incoming control commands. The delay time can be
between 3 and 10 minutes. The default value is 5 minutes which should be
enough for the customer to send new settings or select a different prole.
SLP (SLeeP)
The SLP prole is the most power saving prole. In this mode the device
acquires its position at specied intervals, then records the coordinates into
memory, and doesn’t transfer the data to the customer. After data recording,
the device can stay in Operation mode for a preset duration. The default
location acquisition period is 24 hours. The period can be customized by
means of short SMS command - SLP. The period can vary from 1 to 648
hours with accuracy of 1 hour.
SLP prole may be used to disable temporarily data transmission (e.g. when
asset is in roaming).
Position xing using LBS is not available in SLP prole. If GNSS satellites are not available, the
device will not acquire location data and after the delay time will return to Standby mode.

numbers once a day. By default the SMS is sent at 12:00. After sending the
SMS the AutoGRAPH-ST device will stay in Operation mode for a preset
duration for receiving control commands that may have been sent.
This prole is intended for use when the device is installed in a car as a
security device. If the CAR prole is activated, the customer will receive an
SMS with the current position of the vehicle every day at the scheduled time.
In addition to the car location, the SMS contains information about ambient
temperature, SIM balance and battery voltage level.
CRG (CaRGo)
The Cargo prole sets the device to send an SMS with the current position to
preset numbers and to transfer data to a specied server. The period between
each SMS and data transfer can be set from 1 to 24 hours with accuracy of 1
hour. By default, the period of each is set to 12 hours. After sending the SMS,
the device stays in Operation mode for a preset duration then switches to
Standby mode. This prole is recommended for use when the device is used
for tracking valuable cargo.
TKR (TracKeR)
The prole sets the device to operate as a tracking device. In this prole, the
AutoGRAPH-ST device acquires the asset’s position after a specied period
and records the data into internal memory. Collected data is transferred to
a specied server at preset interval. The data recording period can be set
from 10 minutes to 24 hours with accuracy of 1 minute. The default value is
15 minutes.
Transmission period varies from 1 to 648 hours with accuracy of 1 hour. The
default value is 24 hours.
After data transmission, the device switches to Standby mode without a delay
for receiving control commands.
This prole is recommended for personal tracking (e.g. for emergency and
service companies, child tracking etc.).
