1. Introduction

ST4940: Personal / Asset Tracking Device

The ST4940 with its holderis a waterproof (IP66compliant) hard-cased ultra-mini tracking device to be used for various

purposes like an asset tracker or a personal tracker.

Without any efforts for connecting wires, the ST4940 (hereinafter referred to as ‘device’) works autonomously with its

built-in battery. If users want to track an object with the ST4940, all they have to do is just simply put it into the box or

the carry bag where the object is contained. And then, users can track the locations of such an object and receive an

alert if the object enters or leaves a pre-defined zone.

This non-wiring device is so small that it can be hidden after being placed. So, the waterproof ST4940 is suitable for

covert tracking even in rainy weather conditions. The ST4940 is ideal for tracking various objects such as people,

vehicles (especially small vehicles or motorcycles), boats and valuable fixed/moving assets like expensive

merchandises, computers, electronic products, machinery and so on.

In addition to 3-axis acceleration sensor, the ST4940 has various functionalities such as ultralow-power consumption

algorithms and motion checking.

*In case the ST4940 is placed inside a metal container, it may not work.

Protocol

Watchdog

If the PDP or GPRS/HSPA connection keeps going invalid status for a while about 40 minutes

up to 1 hour, then the device will be reboot and recover the data communication in case that

the problem was not caused by the network side.

8. Configuration

Before a device starts being operated, its parameters should be set first. This chapter shows the string to be sent to

device.

There are 3 options of sending string.

Option 1: by using PC.

Option 2: by using GPRS/HSPA network.

Option 3: by messaging via SMS.

In practice, configuration can be made more efficiently with ‘SyncTrak’, i.e. a setting tool provided by Suntech.

Once a device receives a command from the server, it gets back to the server with a relevant response. Device also

changes some parameters (if it is required to do so) or takes an action as instructed below as per the command sent by

the server.

<Notes>

** If the Network does not require User ID and Password, these fields should be empty.

** If CMD_FROM_SERVER is enabled, the device should keep connection with the server though GPRS/HSPA

so that the device can receive a command from the server.

Sometimes, the device may send ‘Alive Report’ to keep the connection because the network provider may

disconnect the GPRS/HSPA connection if there is no communication for such a time-period. Also, the device

may send‘Alive Reports’ to re-connect with the server while the device is disconnected from the server.

Automatic Setting for GPRS/HSPA Network

If you set the device to ‘Automatic GPRS/HSPA Set’, the device will automatically set the parameters for

GPRS/HSPA with the data available on the inserted SIM card.

For instance, if Airtel SIM is inserted, the device will set ‘AUTH’ to ‘0’, ‘APN’ to ‘airtelgprs.com’, ‘USER_ID and

USER_PASS’ to empty respectively.

And then, the device reports response string after adding real GPRS/HSPA parameters, if ‘Automatic GPRS/HSPA

Set’ is selected.

DNS

SEVER_IPand B_SERVER_IP field can be filled with direct IP address (for example 111.111.111.111) or domain

name (for example, suntechint.com). If this field is written by domain, the device will find real IP address by DNS

and sends reports to IP address.

<ACK in case of UDP>

UDP is a protocol which does not check if the data has been transmitted successfully. So, the device checks completion

of sending with ACKdepending on UDP_ACK type.

ACK is sent by the server when the data is received.

If the ACK is not sent for more than 2 minutes after sending, the device recognizes that the data has not reached the

server and sends the data again.

Examples of ACK report are as below.

String Format : “ST600ACK;0123456789”

Device users are recommended to set ACK_TYPE to ‘1’ to confirm that all the data can be transmitted successfully.

Report Type UDP_ACK=0 UDP_ACK=1 UDP_ACK=2 UDP_ACK=3

‘driving’. Please do not forget that the ST4940 may show you a bigger distance than the real one while

the vehicle is parked, if you make an optional configuration to enable the device not to check motion.

2. To use the ‘DEEP SLEEP’ option, ‘PARKING_INTRV’ should be one hour or more than one hour.

3. If “DEEP SLEEP” option is enabled, ‘the report of distance’ will always be ‘0’.

0 / 1 Only works when Enabled. This is predefined threshold

value based on Motion. This function separated from

Regular Reporting.

As for the Emergency Alert, disabling this function does

not disable the use of the SOS button. The SOS button

will still send an EMG report, while the device works

normally. Disabling the function will only disable sending

EMG reports based on motion detection. Usually, this

function is used when you want to detect movement of

something stationary, such as a door, which is why it

keeps the device in Parked mode.

<Note>:

1. There might be a case that a device user does not want to utilize functions of motion sensing of the device,

which means that a case that the value of <VI_ON_THRES> is zero (0). In such a case, the user can adjust

the time period of <GPS Module On> in order to enable the device to catch GPS signal of satellites to better

facilitate the time period of <GPS Fix>. In such a case, the user can set a Value of time period of <GPS

Module On> ranging from 10% up to 80% of the interval of Parking Mode. If this Value is set higher, life time

of the battery gets shorter. Before you make a decision, therefore, you need to think about how high/low this

Value should be. You need to be selective in setting this Value in consideration of how you practically use the

device.

2. The default is 33%. The GPS module of the device is On for 60 seconds, which is 33% of the Default Parking

Interval (i.e. 180 seconds). Maximum time period of <GPS On> is between minimum 1 minute and maximum

10 minutes.

3. Sometime, you may need to change the existing Parking Interval. In such a case, the saved value of the <GPS

On Percent> has an influence on the time length of <GPS On>. Therefore, you need to think about it and may

change the value of <GPS On Percent> if you need to do so.

4. It is reported that some users utilize the device to monitor just the vehicle’s movement without utilizing Motion

Functions of the device. Some areas may have a problem in making the device to fix GPS. In such a case, you

can get better location information about the device if you change the value of this parameter depending upon

the area where you utilize the device.


COMMAND “ReqGpsOnPercent” This command is used to request the device to report

about what information ‘SetGpsONPercent” has.

12-2. What to do if PC displays “Alcatel Single RNDIS Interface”

This ‘Appendix 12.2’ covers how to solve a problem that a PC may recognize ‘Alcatel Single RNDIS Interface’ as

‘Network adapters’ when a USB cable is used to connect the ST4940 with a PC. Please, check the steps below to know

if the procedure to connect a PC and the new ST4940 may have a problem.

Step 1. Probable problem in connecting a PC with the ST4940 by using a USB Cable

There is one thing that you, as a user of the ST4940, should be very careful in a case that you have never installed a

‘USB driver’ on a PC to enable the PC and the ST4940 to be connected with each other by using a USB cable. In such

a case, “Network Adapters” of your“Device Manager” of the PC will recognize the ST4940 (whose battery is OFF) as

“Alcatel Single RNDIS Interface” and the ST4940 may not work. The following picture shows how such a case happens

to the PC:
