Satellite Tracking System FindMe F2 1 FindMe F2 SATELLITE TRACKING SYSTEM PRIMARY FUNCTION To determine and to transmit to a user exact LBS and GPS/GLONASS position of a stolen or lost vehicle, valuable cargo, expensive equipment. Positioning technologies in use: GPS (Global Positioning System), GLONASS systems are satellite positioning systems to determine any target position and speed virtually in any place of the Earth. The main operation principle of the systems is to determine position by measuring distance to the target from points with known positions i.e. satellites. Positioning accuracy is within 5-20 m. LBS (Location Based Services) is a technology which allows positioning using the nearest GSM-stations instead of satellite data. LBS positioning accuracy is slightly lower than GPS/ GLONASS positioning. Positioning accuracy within the urban area is 200-500 m. 2 FindMe F2 SATELLITE TRACKING SYSTEM PACKAGE The satellite tracking system package includes: • Individual FindMe F2 GPS/GLONASS tracking beacon • Joint secured data processing and storage server • Joint Internet portal for management and monitoring • Joint technical support dispatch center 3 PURPOSES AND OBJECTIVES SET WHEN DEVELOPING FindMe F2 SATELLITE TRACKING SYSTEM During development and implementation of FindMe F2 Satellite Tracking System, we took into account most of the users’ wishes and requests and put into action such technical aspects and principles as: • No subscription or one-time payments when the beacon is used in «bug» mode with SIMcard pre-installed • Quick determination of the exact position due to GPS/GLONASS navigation module • Easy to activate, install, and use • User-friendly and effective operating procedures • The best in the segment off-line operation and operating time of FindMe F2 beacon • Sectional waterproof housing enabling the user to replace SIM-cards and batteries without any professional help • Removable rear covers with magnets • Removable rear cover enabling to connect the device to in-vehicle network* • In-built accelerometer • In-built microphone* • Capable to operate in black box mode* • International roaming connectivity • High fail-safety of the entire system * From FindMe F2.2 version 4 FindMe F2 GPS/GLONASS beacon • Scope of supply • Specifications and features • Principle of operation • How to turn on and log on • How to install 5 FindMe F2 BEACON SCOPE OF SUPPLY The scope of supply includes: • Device • SIM-card* • Batteries * • Operation Manual • User card • Warranty certificate • Packing * pre-installed in the device Optional supply: • Removable rear cover with magnets • Removable rear cover enabling to connect the device to in-vehicle network • Battery pack 6 FindMe F2 GPS/GLONASS BEACON SPECIFICATIONS AND FEATURES Housing dimensions: 104x45x19 mm Device weight: 100 g Operating temperature range: between -40° and +70°C Sectional waterproof housing FindMe F2 GPS/GLONASS beacon has a sectional waterproof housing which enables you to install the device in high humidity places: inside the bumper, under the car wing, etc. Also, this feature allows you to use the device to track and return the stolen ATVs, snowmobiles, outboard engines, valuable cargo, special vehicles, expensive equipment (welding equipment, diesel plants, and compressors), etc. Furthermore, the sectional housing of the device enables you to replace SIM-card and batteries without any professional help.

Connection to various monitoring services is also provided. 12 FindMe F2 GPS/GLONASS BEACON SPECIFICATIONS AND FEATURES FindMe F2 GPS/GLONASS beacon consist of the following main components: • GSM-module with GSM 850/900/1800/1900 support • GPS/GLONASS module • GSM-antenna • GPS/GLONASS antenna • Accelerometer • Microphone These components are manufactured in Europe by leading manufacturers of radio and electronic components. They have low power consumption and high level of fail-safety. As a whole, these components make FindMe F2 GPS/GLONASS beacon to be state-ofthe-art and highly reliable device. 13 PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION OF FindMe F2 GPS/GLONASS BEACON Device When pre-installed SIM-card is used, FindMe F2 GPS/GLONASS beacon applies the following interaction scheme: Device - Server - Client All data from the device and the user pass through the secured server and are processed and stored during unlimited time. The apparent advantage of the above scheme is that you can view all history data and statistics related to your device in your personal area. If any malfunction of the device occurs, data will never be lost. All data are kept on the server. Server Client FindMe F2 GPS/GLONASS beacon does not store any information about the user himself or any data about him. 14 PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION OF FindMe F2 GPS/GLONASS BEACON All information including changes, operation mode change, new settings, etc. is received by FindMe F2 only when it contacts the server. FindMe F2 cannot receive user and server online commands, if pre-installed SIM-card is used or tracking mode is not active. FindMe F2 is not designed to receive information «by request». You can set frequency and time of contact at your own discretion. This principle of FindMe F2 GPS/GLONASS beacon operation is in our view ideal and effective to the greatest possible extent as far as it allows to: 1. Save battery charge to ensure maximum time of offline operation. 2. Keep FindMe F2 GPS/GLONASS beacon invisible for GSM network scan-analyzers. In the period of no data transmission or communication to the server, the device does not emit any signals, so it is well hidden. 15 PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION OF FindMe F2 GPS/GLONASS BEACON FindMe F2 GPS/GLONASS beacon can operate in several modes: • Standard mode • Tracking mode Standard mode In this mode the device stays in sleeping mode most of the time and contacts the server according to the schedule set in personal area. You can set this parameter in the range between 1 and 7 days (by default, one-contact per day). FindMe F2 GPS/GLONASS beacon determines its (LBS) position, battery charge level, ambient temperature. Using (GPRS) mobile Internet, the beacon sends all data to the server, and then requests the server for the next operation mode set by the user in his personal area. Upon saving the current settings, the device goes into sleeping mode until the following contact. 16 PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION OF FindMe F2 GPS/GLONASS BEACON Tracking mode You can activate this mode in your personal area at www.911.fm or using FindMe mobile application, as well as by sending SMS text message with the device name to single phone number +7 (911) 770-8888. When information about tracking mode activation is received, the device contacts the server according to the schedule set in personal area. You can set this parameter in the range between 1 minute and 96 hours (by default, once every two hours). FindMe F2 GPS/GLONASS beacon determines its (GPS/GLONASS) position, battery charge level, ambient temperature, movement speed and direction. The device sends all data to the server and repeats them to the user by sending SMS text message (if this feature is enabled in personal area). After receiving the data from FindMe F2, you can view the device position on Yandex, Google, or OSM maps from any device including your mobile phone or tablet PC (if such functionality is available). 17 HOW TO TURN ON AND LOG ON FindMe F2 GPS/GLONASS BEACON In developing FindMe F2 GPS/GLONASS beacon, we tried to create the most practical and easy-to use device. 1 To turn on and log on your FindMe F2, you will have to follow just two simple steps: 1.
