Cognosos RT‐200
Operational Description
The RT‐200 is a small battery powered GPS tracking device mounted on the sun visor or rearview mirror
of the vehicle being tracked. When the RT‐200 senses motion, then senses a stop, the location of the
vehicle is obtained through the GPS receiver, then the location and serial number are transmitted to one
of the Cognosos Gateways, over a 433MHz 15.231 radio.
Activating/Deactivating a RT‐200
The RT‐200 is shipped deactivated and in ‘shipping mode’. To bring the RT‐200 out of ‘shipping mode’,
the operator should gently double‐tap the unit, 3 times in succession, with 2‐3 seconds between double
taps. The RT‐200 LED will flash green for 10 seconds when first brought out of shipping mode. The RT‐
200 will look for a Cognosos Activator during this 10 second window. If the Activator is not found, the
RT‐200 will re‐enter shipping mode. If the Activator is found and communication is established, the RT‐
200 will exit shipping mode and never re‐enter, for the life of the RT‐200, even during battery
replacement.
Once communication is established between the RT‐200 and Activator, the operator will command the
RT‐200 to be activated, deactivated or have the firmware upgraded, using the Cognosos Activator utility
program.
Once activated, the RT‐200 is ready to be placed into a vehicle and perform its tracking function.
The RT‐200 must be within 10 meters of the Activator to establish communication. Once
communication is established, the operator can activate, deactivate or have the firmware upgraded,
using the Cognosos Activator utility program.
Replacing a battery
The RT‐200 will blink the red LED intermittently upon detection of a low battery. Once a low battery is
detected, the RT‐200’s battery life is between 1‐3 weeks.
To replace the battery, remove the 4 screws holding together the top and bottom housing halves.
Remove the battery and replace with a Cognosos approved Lithium Thionyl Chloride AA battery (3.6V,
2.4Ah). Assemble the top and bottom halves and install the 4 screws.
The RT‐200 LED will flash green for 10 seconds when a new battery is installed. The RT‐200 will look for
a Cognosos Activator during this 10 second window. If the Activator is not found, the RT‐200 will
deactivate itself, but always be listening for the Activator signal.
Once communication is established between the RT‐200 and Activator, the operator will command the
RT‐200 to be activated, deactivated or have the firmware upgraded, using the Cognosos Activator utility
program.
Once activated, the RT‐200 is ready to be placed into a vehicle and perform its tracking function.
Vehicle Installation and Operation
An activated RT‐200 is placed in the vehicle on the driver’s side visor or hanging from the rearview
mirror. Before installation, the operator will scan the RT‐200 barcode into the car management
software system, associating the vehicle with the RT‐200.
