More Information
F.A.Q's
WHAT ARE THE DIMENSIONS OF THE TERRAIN TRACKER?
The tracker measures just 105 x 65 x 40 mm and will sit on the palm of your hand.
HOW LONG DOES THE BATTERY LAST?
When not in active use (standby time), the tracker will hold its charge for over six months, and when actively sending its location daily, the Terrain can achieve upwards of 21 days (per charge). Remember, each time you request the tracker's location, the battery draws power consumption; therefore, if you ask for the tracker's location moderately, the battery can provide exceptional performance.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO CHARGE THE TRACKER?
Built inside the tracker is a 10'000 mAh rechargeable battery, which will take approx. 8-10 hours to fully charge.
HOW DO I OBTAIN A LOCATION?
The tracker is ready to work straight out of the box. Insert any working Nano-size SIM card and then call the associated number from any smartphone. The tracker will send its real-time location as a street-level Google Map, including the current battery level, time, and date.
HOW STRONG IS THE MAGNETIC BASE?
Very adequate when properly attached to metal surfaces.
CAN I BE NOTIFIED IF MY STATIC CARAVAN IS STOLEN / TOWED AWAY?
Yes. One excellent feature of the SMS Terrain is a 'Shock Sensor' that will notify your smartphone when the tracker detects movement.
WHAT ABOUT IF THE BATTERY LEVEL GETS LOW? CAN I BE NOTIFIED?
Yes. The 'Low Battery' notification will send an SMS to your smartphone when the tracker's battery level is at 20% - thus providing ample time to recover and recharge the tracker back to full battery capacity.
WHAT DOES STANDBY TIME MEAN?
The total time the tracker can remain powered, ready to receive SMS commands or send its location.
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO TRACK?
It depends on the SIM card inside the tracker, but as a general rule of thumb, each SMS returned by the tracker to your smartphone will cost approx 10 pence. You can use any SIM card, including 4G SIM cards. There is always an abundance of SIM card deals available, for example: as low as £5.00 per month for unlimited texts/tracking.
HOW DO I TOP UP THE SIM CARD?
For the EE network (although you can use any network), we provide you with the associated top-up number so you can add funds with a voucher or debit/credit card without speaking to an advisor. Top-ups are easy and fast from any smartphone.
CAN I USE A COMPUTER TO OBTAIN A LOCATION?
No. The SMS Terrain Tracker is designed for use with a smartphone only.
DO I NEED AN INTERNET CONNECTION OR DATA ON MY SMARTPHONE?
Yes. You will need an active internet connection on your smartphone to open a colour street-level Google map.
CAN I USE THE TRACKER OVERSEAS?
Yes. The tracker will work in any country worldwide and uses the latest 4G technology.
