All Rights Reserved. Page 3 of 27 Confidential Document 2. Introduction Congratulations on your purchase of the ATrack AX9 GPS device, combining with the most comprehensive and economical vehicle diagnostics technology, which provides real-time engine monitoring. The engine diagnostic data is collected through the vehicle's OBD-II communication port and is transmitted along with GPS data to the control center over a mobile network, for instance, GSM, GPRS, UMTS or CDMA. In this way, potential engine problems can be identified earlier before the vehicle breaks down at an inopportune time. Furthermore, you may configure other advanced driving behavior events such as harsh braking, sudden acceleration, speeding, cornering, and much more in order to reduce the risks of vehicle damage and drive down the costs of fuel. Depending on your needs, the AX9 will come with an embedded Bluetooth module (refer to Chapter 6 for more information). This user manual is intended to guide you through the installation and configuration process. It also highlights the hardware features and Bluetooth applications.

Package Content When you open the package, verify that you received the following: AX9 Device * 1 USB Cable * 1 3.2. AX9 OBD-II Compliant OBD-II is a set of standards and practices defined by SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) in the early 1990s. But some automobile manufactures do not follow it completely. Therefore, ATrack cannot guarantee each vehicle’s OBD-II connected performance. For more information about the AX9 OBD-II compliance, please refer to the “ATrack AX Series OBD-II Compliant Guide” document for details. © ATrack Technology Inc. All Rights Reserved. Page 5 of 27 Confidential Document 4. Hardware Features 4.1. OBD-II Protocol There are five signaling protocols that are permitted with the OBD-II interface. Most vehicles have been implemented with only one of the protocols. The AX9 features a superior protocol detection algorithm that ensures the device connects reliably even to vehicles that do not fully conform to the OBD‐II standards. The AX9 supports the following legislated OBD-II protocols: J1850 PWM (Ford vehicles) J1850 VPW (GM vehicles) ISO9141-2 (Asian, European, Chrysler vehicles) ISO 14230-4 KWP ISO 15765-4 CAN (11/29 bit ID,250/500 Kbaud) The AXTool provides the “OBD Live Data” viewer for showing OBD data in real time. Refer to Section 5.2 for details. 4.2. Mini USB Port and Driver Installation The Mini USB connection is used for the following purposes: configuring parameters and firmware upgrade. When the AX9 is connected to your laptop/PC via a Mini USB cable, the OBD-II and GSM/GPRS functions are switched off unless the main power is applied to the AX9 at the same time. The following figure shows the position of AX9’s USB port. USB Port © ATrack Technology Inc. All Rights Reserved. USB Port Page 6 of 27 Confidential Document Double click the USB driver VCP_V1.3.1_Setup/ VCP_V1.3.1_Setup_x64. Then, click the Finish button to complete the process. 4.3. Buzzer Operation The internal buzzer of the AX9 can be configured by any events or triggered by a remote server. Refer to the ATrack Protocol Document for details. When a device is configured and plugged into an OBD-II DLC connector, it performs some basic function tests. You can simply verify whether it is installed properly via buzzer indication. Please refer to the following table for details: Buzzer Indication Description Beep 1 time Device Power ON Beep 2 times OBD Protocol Connected Beep 3 times GSM/GPRS Connected Beep 4 times GPS Fix 4.4. Power Supply The AX9 device is connected to the OBD-II SAE J1962 connector of a vehicle and draws power from the OBD port. No additional power cabling is required for the operation. If the OBD port of a vehicle is covered or you need to install AX9 in another place for better GPS reception, the optional low profile OBD-II extension cable is required. © ATrack Technology Inc. All Rights Reserved. Page 7 of 27 Confidential Document 4.5. SIM Card Installation AX9 supports SIM cards with 1.8V (ISO/IEC 7816-3 class C) or 3V (ISO/IEC 7816-3 class B) operating voltages. To install s SIM, remove the crews, dust cap and the cover. (1) (2) (3) (4) © ATrack Technology Inc. All Rights Reserved. Page 8 of 27 Confidential Document 4.6.

Bluetooth Applications In this section, we will walk you through on how to set up a Bluetooth connection between your AX9 and your Android mobile/PC. 6.1. Using an Android Mobile to Connect to your AX9 For this demonstration purpose, we will use the "Bluetooth SPP Pro" app, which can be downloaded from this website address: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.dzs.android.BLE_SPP_PRO&hl=en A 2-D barcode for your phone to scan and download from market: After the installation, launch the app which scans for available Bluetooth devices. The AX9 device is listed Tap on the area marked in red, then the device details on the list as shown below: are shown as below: Tap on the Connect button. © ATrack Technology Inc. All Rights Reserved. Page 20 of 27 Confidential Document Tap on CMD line mode. The command prompt shows up: After a successful connection, you can see a response message showing "Rxd>AX9 Bluetooth Connected". By default, there is no password. Therefore, the AT$BTEN command may be used to setup a password for a Bluetooth authentication. If a password is set, then a password prompt would be shown and you would need to type your password in order to communicate with the device. 6.2. Using a PC to connect to your AX9 In this example, Windows 8 is used for this demonstration. The same principle can also be applied when installing a device on a Windows 7 platform. At first, you need to have Hyper-Terminal installed. Next, power up the AX9 device, and then on your PC, go to Control Panel -> Devices and Printers -> right click on a blank space and select Add devices and printers. Double click on AX9 SPP to install the device. © ATrack Technology Inc. All Rights Reserved. Page 21 of 27 Confidential Document The device is being installed as shown below. Under Devices and Printers, please right-click on AX9 SPP and select Properties. © ATrack Technology Inc. All Rights Reserved. Page 22 of 27 Confidential Document Select Services in order to check which COM port the device is connected to. In this example, the device is connected via COM11. Launch the Hyper-Terminal and select COM11. Please select the following settings during the connection setup. © ATrack Technology Inc. All Rights Reserved. Page 23 of 27 Confidential Document Once it is connected, there is a response message showing "AX9 Bluetooth Connected". You can issue some AT commands later on. 6.3. Bluetooth Commands AT$BTEN=, : 0 - SPP Profile (Default) : 4 characters password for connection authorization. Example: Set "1234" for the Bluetooth connection password AT$BTEN=0,"1234" After connecting to the AX9, you will need to input the password with the ending characters and send the password to the AX9 in order to establish the connection. This password sending has to be done within 1 minute after a successful pairing. A failure will result in disconnection and cause the pairing process to repeat again. © ATrack Technology Inc.
