Overview From the following diagram, the AS3/AS3E GPS receiver receives incoming signals from each orbiting satellite. These signals consist of information such as satellite’s position and the time that the signal was transmitted by each satellite. The receiver analyzes these data in order to determine how far away each satellite is and it uses the triangulation method to calculate the vehicle’s exact position. Once the positioning data along with other event data are gathered, they will be transmitted to the service center across a Mobile network or via SMS. The communication is bidirectional, which means you can control the AS3/AS3E remotely across a Mobile network or via SMS. System Architecture Page 4 of 28 Confidential Document 3 .

GPS Antenna Installation The AS3/AS3E determines its position by communicating with Global Positioning Satellites through an external GPS antenna. The location where the AS3/AS3E GPS antenna is installed will have great effect in the overall performance of the GPS receiving. Please note that the following interior conditions may cause bad GPS reception when a GPS antenna is installed inside interior of vehicle: Windows with metallic tint Windshield mounted radio antenna Windows with solar reflective covers The MP3 FM transmitter may interfere with GPS reception Page 11 of 28 Confidential Document 3.6. Mounting Methods The AS3/AS3E can be either surface or magnet mounted by using appropriate screws. 3.6.1. Surface Screw Mount Use two #10 screws (diameter=4.8mm) to fix AS3/AS3E on a surface. 3.6.2. Magnet Mount Use magnet mount kits to install magnets on AS3/AS3E device. The magnets must be handled with care to prevent personal injury as they are extremely strong. Page 12 of 28 Confidential Document 4. Configuration You may explore great features on the AS3/AS3E either through AT commands or the AK Series Configure Tool. The commands can be sent to a device via RS232, SMS or Mobile network . 4.1. Set up a Device Using the AK Series Configure Tool Before running the AK Series Configure Tool, make sure your device is connected to a PC/laptop via RS232. The AK Series Configure Tool provides a user-friendly intuitive interface that enables you to quickly and easily set up those basic parameters. Please refer to our AK Series configure Tool user manual for details. Page 13 of 28 Confidential Document 4.2. Connect a Device Using HyperTerminal The following example shows how to connect the AS3/AS3E through HyperTerminal.
