The reporting mode
User can choose the reporting mode and related parameters via the PC setup program or the remote sever. Almost all
the reports are optional as report or not report, if user chose report then the unit will send out the related report to the
destination, it would not, however, send the report out even though the trigger occurred. The reporting mode can be
categorized as:
1) ‘Time’ report.
2) ‘Distance’ report.
3) ‘Intelligent’ report.
4) ‘Input trigger’ report
4. Report storage
The report data may be saved in device’s flash memory and would not be lost even if the power supply was failure.
Up to 900 reports flash memory capacity for history reports recording. They can be read out from the PC setup
program via serial port line. These reports may be intelligent history user select in report of PC setup those save only
and would never send out to save money.
5. Report sending approach
The unit can communicate with the server via TCP, UDP or SMS protocol. Generally the unit will select TCP as its
default access to Internet; basically this manner is fairly reliable and secure. User can also select UDP, which is
more rapid and economic compared with TCP. When there is no GPRS service or the server is offline, the unit will
send SMS report to the SMS acceptor if SMS number defined. And user can set the maximum allow sending
number of short message. After reconnect to the server, all the reports will be sent out again.
III. WORKING MODE:
The unit has almost 3 working modes; they are Normal Working mode, Standby mode and Sleeping mode.
1. Data transmitting mode
During this mode, the unit is fairly busy, it will monitor all of its status to see if any of them was changed or any
trigger condition met, and it will receive all input data and send out its allowed report. The power consumption is
nearly 80mA.
2. Standby mode
During this mode, the unit is fairly leisurely, it connects to the sever but no data in or out, and nearly no too much
matters to process, then the unit will enter standby mode. The average current is nearly 50 mA.
3. Sleeping mode
In order to save power, TLU100N can go to sleep mode when duty off and TL-sensor is not trigged for 5 minutes.
This feature is configurable. Both “GPS” and “GPRS” or either one of them may be selected to power off. User can
setup the automatically wakeup time for the sleep mode to ensure the device will wakeup to work. The system can
send out a wake up report to the server after waking up. During the sleep mode, if any of the inputs are triggered, the
system will wake up and send relevant reports to the server. The input triggers for waking the device up are
selectable. When Duty-On, the system will back to normal working mode and stay connected to the TCP/UDP
server in GPRS network.

send out the changed message timely. It has 5 kinds of report: Door open or Door close, Tamper switch pop and
Tamper switch push, Low battery report, It will send a message to host as soon as its tamper switch or magnetic
door status changed. It will also send a low battery message to host when its voltage below 2.3v.
B: The sensor ID will be sent to host every 30 seconds after power on in the first 3 minutes, user should power on
the sensor device no sooner than the wireless door sensor ID learning function of TLU100N has been launched.
2. Wireless Temperature sensor
A: The temperature will report its environmental temperature and then send it to host. In order to save energy and fit
for the actual application environment too, the temperature will be hand to host every a fixed centigrade changed.
This sensor has 5 kinds of reports: Tamper switch pop and Tamper switch push, Out of temperature scope and
Enter the temperature scope, Low battery report, It will send a message to host as soon as its tamper switch status
changed. It will also send a low battery message to host when its voltage below 5v.
B: The sensor ID will be sent to host every 30 seconds after power on in the first 3 minutes, user should power on
the sensor device no sooner than the wireless temperature sensor ID learning function of TLU100N has been
launched.
C: The sensor will report its current temperature to host every fixed centigrade temperature changed, this fixed
reference value can be defined by the on board 3 jumpers. The following jumper code table and the jumper graph

The Wireless Keypad was used for communication interface between user and TLU100N. It communicate with host
by two-way RF, normally the keypad sends its command that user entered to host, if the command is accepted as a
valid command then the host will send back a response as an ACK. The Key Pad has total 9 commands. And it has 4
main functions; they are Duty On/Off, Help Request, Self-Geofence setting and Wireless sensor ID learning. It will
directly trigger 3 reports: Help, Duty-On and Duty-Off.
VIII. STATUS INDICATOR
The system has three statuses LED; the following is their corresponding description:
1):Red: Power indicator and Device ID learning indicator. Generally, the led will flash every 5 seconds all the time to
indicate the unit’s power on. The LED will be continuously on to indicate enter into device ID learn mode when select the
JP1 to ON. The Led will flash three times after one successful device ID learning.
2):Yellow: GPRS indicator. This LED will flash periodically and slowly when the TLU100N system has connected a
server by GPRS network. The LED will blink twice when it has received the signal of the GSM base station but has not
connected a target server. Or else the LED keep extinct to indicate GPRS function be sleep mode or failure.
3):Green: GPS indicator. This LED will flash periodically when the unit received a valid GPS data. Or else the LED keep
extinct to indicate GPS is in sleep mode or invalid data.

[on/off] SEND REPORT IF ADC1 ENTER/EXIT [min voltage] V TO [max voltage] V for [debounce time] SEC
Note: AD1 input voltage range is 0~3.3v, it must connect a resistance to share the voltage if the detected voltage higher
than 3.3v,.
(4) Speeding report
The UNIT will automatically check the current speed information; it will send a report to the server when it is over the
defined maximum speed.
(5) Low battery warning report (to alert user when the backup battery level is low)
Parameters: On/Off, and warning battery level for report. For example, 30 to represent 30% lower level report.
The system will ignore the parameter with a value ‘0’ to prevent continuous non-stop reporting.
(7) Course change report
Parameters: On/Off, and course change in degree.
(8) Keep alive procedure
Parameters: On/Off, and interval / retry times. In order to keep connection in GPRS network, the unit can be set to send
short keep alive report to the server in order to prevent the disconnection from the mobile service provider.
Send reports after a successful keep alive ACK. Parameters: On/Off .
If you select this function, all the reports will only be sent out after a successful keep alive ACK. (So if your keep alive
time is shorter then select this function will be OK.) This function is very useful while using UDP to prevent report lost.
Send a keep alive packet right before a due reports if no data stream within certain time: Parameters: On/Off, and idle
time.
Some GSM provider might cut connection, if there is no data within certain time. It might result report lost in this “fake
connection” duration. For example, you can set parameters in this region, ex 20 mins. (it means if the unit did not send
any data in this 20 mins (including keep alive or normal reports) ), then it will send a keep alive packet to check if the
GPRS connection is valid or not. If not, it will actively reconnect to GPRS network.
(9) Fixed time report
Parameters: On/Off, and time. The unit will send out a report every fixed duration.
(10) Fixed distance report
Parameters: On/Off, and distance. (min. distance is 0.1 km, max. distance is 100 km).
(11) GPRS dial-up procedure
1) GPRS always one-line
Parameters: Reconnect interval
While using this mode, when the unit can not searched GPRS signal, system will reconnect GPRS interval a preset value.
(e.g.: 1minute)
In Commercial Confidence
10
2) Base on report mode
Parameters: Max. reconnect times, reconnect interval
While using this mode, the unit will connect to the server when there is a report to send. If the first connection is failed, it
will retry to connect to the server up to the max. reconnect times. Each retry will be separated by the reconnect “interval”.
3) GPRS connect once
While using this mode, the unit will connect to the server when there is a report to send (but only try once). If it is not
successful, the report will be stored and sent out in the next successful connection. Disconnect GPRS connection when
report sending is completed.
Reduce GPRS dialup method
Parameters: On/Off, Max. reconnect times, connect delay
If this method is used, the unit will reduce the GPRS dial-up connection when the dial-up is failed after number of times.
User can define the delay time for the unit before try to reconnect to the server. If there is trigger report, the unit will
connect to server immediately.
Special command for SMS mode:
If the TLU100N is not in the GPRS online status, user can send command &&Y02 or &&Y04 to ask unit to connect to
server. This command can be sent from any device via SMS;
&&Y02:
When received this command, system will actively try to connect to server in next 600 seconds.
&&Y04,[connection time],[report interval]:
For example: &&Y04,3600,60
When received this command, system will connect to server in the next 3600 seconds, and send one report out every
60 seconds.
(6) Self-diagnostic report (for a contain period of time, the UNIT can send a report to the server in order to check the
functionality)
Parameters: On/Off, and time.
4. [Trigger report and sleep mode setup]
In Commercial Confidence

1) Input trigger report
All input trigger reports are also configurable. User can customize the events generated by the in-vehicle input to be sent
to the server. To enable the particular trigger reports by click the box.
2) Sleep mode (when Duty-Off)
(1) TLU100N can go to sleep mode when duty off and TL-sensor is not trigged for 5 minutes. In sleep mode, GPS &
GPRS will be disabled.
(2) During the sleep mode, the system can wake up automatically to check if anything need to be processed and will
send a wake up diagnostic report.
(3) During the sleep mode, if any of the inputs are triggered, the system will wake up automatic report and then send
reports to the server.
X. WIRELESS SENSOR ID LEARNING:
In order to match a wireless sensor to host, the TLU100N host must memorize its related wireless sensor’s ID by this both
of the device created a valid communication measure, which is called ID learning. In TLU100N system there are two
sensor need code learning before putting to use, they are wireless door sensor and wireless temperature sensor. Both of the
two devices will send their ID to host every 30 seconds at the beginning 3 minutes after powered on. If the host’s sensor
ID learning function was enabled then host will get a new sensor ID and save it to its nonvolatile memory. There are two
ways by which user can enable TLU100N host’s wireless sensor ID code learning function.
1. On board jumper code learning
¾
Put the on board ‘JP1’ jumper to “ON” to let host enter wireless sensor ID accepting state. The ID learning
indication LED of host will light on.
¾ Power on the wireless accessory soon, the sensor will send out its ID into air and at the same time the LED of the
sensor will flash.
¾ The ID learning indication LED of host will flash 3 times for every successful sensor ID learning.
¾ Power on next device that need to be learned until all of them are finished.
¾ Put back the on board ‘JP1’ jumper to “OFF” as soon as all sensor be learned successfully, the host will exit the
code learning state.
Note that:
1) Both temperature and door sensor can achieve ID learning by this same way.
2) Nothing will be changed if no any sensor ever sent ID learning request to the host during ID learn valid
period.
3) All previous ID will be cleared as soon as a same kind sensor ID learning request arrived first time, the new
ID will then be saved.
4) Do not forget to put back ‘JP1’ to “OFF” state after code learning over, or else new ID learning request may
destroy the original ID.
2. Keypad command code learning
Wireless temperature and door sensor have different keypad commands for ID learning, e.g.:*88*# for door sensor
and *99*# for temperature sensor.
A: wireless temperature sensor ID learning
¾ Input “*99*#” to enable temperature sensor ID learning.
¾ Power on the wireless accessory soon, the sensor will send out its ID into air and at the same time the LED of
the sensor will flash.
¾ The buzzer on keypad will beep for successful sensor ID learning.
¾ Input “*90*#” to disable temperature sensor ID learning, the buzzer will beep to indicate a successful
operation.
In Commercial Confidence
12
Note that:
1) Nothing will be changed if no any sensor ever sent ID learning request to the host during ID learn valid
period.
2) Every successful “*99*#” command will be valid for only 3 minutes, so user should power on the ID learn
need sensor before the state turn into invalid. It will delay 3 minutes for another device ID learning after one
time of successful code learning.
3) Up to 1 wireless temperature sensors can be matched with one host in one time ID learning process
B: wireless door sensor ID learning
¾ Input “*88*#” to enable door sensor ID learning.
¾
¾
¾
¾
Power on the wireless accessory soon, the sensor will send out its ID into air and at the same time its LED will
flash.
The buzzer of keypad will beep for every successful sensor ID learning.
Power next device on that need to be learned till all of them are finished.
Input “*80*#” to end door sensor ID learning, the buzzer will beep to indicate a successful operation.
Note that:
1) Nothing will be changed if no any sensor ever sent ID learning request to the host during ID learn valid
period.
2) Every successful “*88*#” command will be valid for only 3 minutes, so user should power on the ID learn
need sensor before the state turn into invalid. It will delay 3 minutes for another device ID learning after one
time of successful code learning.
3) All previous ID will be cleared as soon as a same kind sensor ID learning request arrived first time, the new
ID will then be saved.
4) Up to 4 wireless door sensors can be matched with one host in one time ID learning process
XI. INTERNAL BATTERY PROTECT MECHANISM:
1. To protect internal battery, we added a mechanism to TLU100N, when the internal battery voltage drop to
10.8v,TLU100N will keep to detect battery voltage for 2 minutes, if the battery voltage keep 10.8v continuously
2.
during this 2minutes period. TLU100N will send a “battery shut down event” to server to notice user. After this
event is send out, TLU100N only can work another 30 minutes.
After TLU100N goes into “battery shut down” mode, TLU100N will check the battery continuously, if the battery
charges to 12v for 2 hours, it can work again.
XII. Two ways can be selected to use TLU100N
1. Normal: Connect unit’s hard wire to vehicles. All the above function can be used.
2. Simplification: No connect unit’s hard wire to vehicles. The hard wire door TG-; TG+; 1 A/D; ext. power will not
be used. Notes: if you first time use TLU100N, please press the reset button once to active built-in battery work.
XIII. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
1. Question: How can I set the unit’s system working circumstance?
Reply: User can configure the unit’s parameters by PC setup program or by remote server web page. Generally the
former is quick and the latter is convenient. Reference PC SETUP AND SYSTEM INITIATION section for more
detail guidance.
2. Question: What is tamper switch and how does it work?
Reply: The tamper switch is a special input trigger, which is designed for box open detect. A tamper switch has a
physical spring; normally the spring is squeezed by box shell of equipment, however, the spring will pop on because
its elastic force as soon as the box is open, the unit will detect this change and send out a trigger report.

3. Question: What are circle geofence and point geofence?
Reply: Geofence is just a position check idea. Circle Geofence uses a pre-defined radius and a GPS position center
to check a target’s current position and judge whether it is beyond the setting circular scope or not. It may
report when a status change detected. The Point Geofence only compare its current GPS coordinate with
the predefined one. It may send out a report when it is closing to the checkpoint or away from it.
4. Question: What is the difference among the three connectors on main board?
Reply: The 3 pin connector is for PC-SETUP; user may connect the unit and PC together by this interface. The 5
pins and the 6-pin connector is for firmware downloading or debug, user do not need to care them.
5. Question: TLU100N can go to sleep mode when duty off and TL-sensor is not trigged for 5 minutes, but are they
independent?
Reply: The TLU100N system will enter sleep mode when all the following conditions met at the same time.
1): user has configured sleep function.
2): several minutes have elapsed since the latest trigger.
3): no connecting to external power.
4): User through wireless keypad registered TLU100N as duty-off state.
