LM – Initial Setup

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Before first use, low-cost trackers must be awakened from sleep mode to start measurements and send transmissions. Follow these steps:

  1. Remove the cover from the lens

  2. Shake the device several times in the ToF direction.

  3. Check the LED on the back of the device.

    • If Step 2 was successfully completed, the LED on the back should light up (mode \”Always On\”).

    • If the LED does not light up, repeat Step 2.

      4. Verify whether the registration was successful:

  • Observe the LED:

    • The LED will blink rapidly for 3 seconds and then turn off, indicating that the device has been successfully activated.
    • This process can take up to 3 minutes. After successful activation, the LED will not light up even if Step 2 is repeated.
  • Observe the LED:

    • If the LED turns off without blinking, the activation procedure has failed.
    • Possible causes:
      • An invalid network.
      • An issue with Deutsche Telekom\’s gIoT Cloud platform.
