1. Introduction
ST940: Personal / Asset Tracking Device
The ST940 is a waterproof (IP65 compliant) hard-cased ultra-mini tracking device for various usages such as asset
tracker and personal trackers.
Without any efforts for connecting wires, the ST940 works autonomously with its built-in battery. If users want to track
an object with the ST940, all they have to do is just simply put it into the box or the carry bag where the object is
contained. And then, users can track the locations of such an object and receive an alert if the object enters or leaves
a pre-defined zone.
This non-wiring device is so small that it can be hidden after being placed. So, the waterproof ST940 is suitable for
covert tracking even in rainy weather conditions. The ST940 is ideal for tracking various objects such as people,
vehicles (especially small vehicles or motorcycles), boats and valuable fixed/moving assets like expensive
merchandises, computers, smart phones, electronic products, machinery and so on.
In addition to 3-axis acceleration sensor, the ST940 has various functionalities such as low-power consumption

4. When charging is finished, unplug the travel adapter from the power outlet.
5. Remove the travel adapter from the device.
It is highly recommended that the rechargeable battery should be charged
completely before using the device. Connect the ST940 to its charger cable
supplied by Suntech and charge it for 5 hours.
< Charging Status indicated on the battery LED >
Red blinking twice: under 10% of the full capacitance
Red blinking: under 30% of the full capacitance
Orange blinking: 30% to 80%
Green blinking: Almost Full
Green lighting: Completed charging in full
<Status of Charging Mode indicated on the battery LED>
As soon as the charger is connected with the device which has been turned off, the GPS LED will be turned on and
continue
The battery does not charge properly or sometimes your device turns itself off while charging
• Disconnect the device from the charger, remove and reinstall the battery, and try charging again.
• If the battery no longer charges completely, dispose of the old battery properly and replace it with a new
battery.
<Charging Error>
When an error occurs while the battery is being charged. The red LED and the green LED blink by turns. In this case,
please disconnect the charger cable and try to do charging again by reconnecting the cable. If this error occurs
continuously, please replace the battery or contact Suntech.

6. Appearance
7. How to operate
The ST940, a multifunctional battery-powered mini GPS tracker, is ideal for tracking personnel, valuable assets like
merchandises that are delivered by putting it onto an object.
While tracking, it reports location information about the object at a predefined interval and alerts if it detects motion of
the object. Because it is powered by battery, its user should charge the battery fully prior to using and should turn it
off when tracking is finished.
Users are required to set the reporting timing of the device at an interval with more than 10 minutes in order to save
the endurance time of the battery.

<Notes>
If the SIM does not require User ID and Password, these fields should be empty.
If RX_GPRS_CMD is enabled, the device should keep connection with the server though GPRS so that the
device can receive a command from the server.
Sometimes, the device may send ‘alive reports’ to keep this connection because the network provider may
disconnect the GPRS connection if there is no communication for such a time-period. Also, the device may
send ‘alive reports’ to re-connect with the server while the device is disconnected with the server.

DEV_PORT
String
Device’s port for receiving command from UDP server.
It can be used only when UDP server is used.
If ‘0’ or empty, the device would use port 9000.
If not zero, the device can receive commands with port

[response]ST940;RES;ADP;123456789;T;T;0;8051
<ACK in case of UDP>
UDP is a protocol which does not check if the data has been transmitted successfully. So, the device checks
completion of sending with ACK (ST910ACK;111111) depending on UDP_ACK type.
ACK is sent by the server when the data is received.
If the ACK is not sent for more than 2 minutes after sending, the device recognizes that the data has not reached the
server and sends the data again.

Up to 9999
It is a command which is needed to save battery power when the device is in a safe area and has no plan of
moving for a time period of ‘OFF_TIME’.
When the device receives this command, it turns the power off and on after OFF_TIME minutes pass.
During the time period of ‘power off’, the device cannot send either any reports or alert. It cannot receive any
commands, either.
This action is exactly same as power handling by pressing the key.
Instead of this command, you can turn off the power by pressing the key and turn on the power by pressing the
key after OFF_TIME minutes.
Caution: Please eliminate the ‘data cable’ after you set ‘OFF COMMAND’ in ‘SyncTrack’ program.
