1.3. Sign Up & Log In
Before activating your device, you must sign up to the Trackimo website via your
computer or laptop, and create a Trackimo account. You will be asked to enter
your email and choose a password. After registration is completed you will
receive a confirmation email where you will need to confirm the validity of your
email address.

1.4. Activating your device
First, charge your device until it is fully charged (once the device is fully charged
the red light will be steady –this typically takes at least 8 hours). After that, turn
the device on –press the small red button at the top for at least 5 seconds.
Prior to activating the device, it is recommended to confirm the device receives a
GPS signal –this will allow the first location finding faster once you activate. All
you need to do for that is keep the device turned on, and put it outside in clear
view of the sky for 15 minutes.
Then go to the website http://app.trackimo.com on your computer or laptop, log
in, and press the “Activate Device” button on the Trackimo website to begin the
activation process.
The activation wizard will appear and you should follow the instructions.
Enter the “Device ID” of your Trackimo –this is a 7-digit number, located
on the inside of your Trackimo under the battery, and printed on the
package.

2.2. Device Location Information
The device information can be found in two places:
1. When clicking on the device marker icon on the map, the location information
will be available inside the information pop up right above the device marker
icon.
2. When clicking on the device on the left sidebar of the dashboard the location
information will be right below the device name.
The location information available is the device address, time tracked, speed,
battery percentage left, and the longitude and latitude location of the device.
Note: The device location may be based on the cellular network signal
(GSM location), in cases where the device cannot receive proper GPS
signals from the GPS satellites, for example indoors. This location is not
accurate, but rather an approximation of the device location.
If GPS location is not available, the location will be based on computing an
approximate position according to the signals from nearby cellular towers. In that
case, the location and text will appear in the device location information area

User Guide v7

notifying that the location is based on the cellular network. A blue halo will also
surround the tracking marker notifying you that the location is approximate, as
shown in the image below.

User Guide v7

2.3. Update Device Location
Upon clicking on the update location button, available for each device, Trackimo
will attempt to contact the device through the cellular network and retrieve the
devices exact location.
Trackimo will retrieve an exact GPS based location, but if GPS is unavailable at
the device location, Trackimo will attempt to approximate the location using the
mobile network signals to the device.
If the device is unreachable within 60 seconds from the Trackimo system, the
system will notify the user with an information notification. Reasons that the
device may be unreachable may include; the device being turned off, the device
is out of battery, and the device is in an area which does not have cell phone
reception.
