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.

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).
