1 Chapter 1 introduction. Designed with the latest GPS technology, the CAREU U1 LITE PLUS delivers positioning message by wireless transmission to GIS platform, and then helps back-end users proceed with the analysis and the applications of vehicle transport, management, anti-theft, security and tracking. A microcontroller can probe location and command data at regular intervals, derive actions from location, peripheral and control data, and execute such actions. Peripheral data indicates the status of various peripherals connected to and/or controlled by the device. Among the best features of the CAREU U1 LITE PLUS Vehicle Tracker, in particular, they transmit data in ASCII mode (Intellitrac X Series compatible mode) or binary mode. 1.1 Features ● SMS,GPRS/UMTS/HSPA TCP/UDP, USSD, FTP ● Real-time tracking (Time, Distance Interval or Intelligent Mode, and Heading) ● Firmware upgrade over the air ( form FTP) ● Journey report wireless download ● Battery low alert ● Geofence reports ● Mileage reports ● User-defined reports ● 6-Axis Sensor ● NMEA-0183 Output for Navigation ● GPS Antenna Destroyed Alarm ● CAN BUS interface (optional) 1.2 Scope This document will guides you to start the CAREU U1 LITE PLUS Vehicle Tracker.

Connected the serial port 1 to PC COM port 2. In Windows desktop, click Start | All Programs | Accessories | Communications | HyperTerminal. 3. If you are prompted to input the information of your location, complete them to proceed. 4. On the File menu of HyperTerminal, click New Connection. 5. In the Name box, type a name that describes the connection. In the Icon box, click an appropriate icon. Press the OK button to proceed.
6 6. For Com port properties, configure as follows: Baud Rate --> 115200 bps Data Bits --> 8 Parity --> None Stop Bits --> 1 Flow Control --> None 7. In the connection that you have just set up, click File | Properties. Select the [Connect To] tab. From the [Connect using] drop down list, select the correct com port.
7 8. In the File menu, click Properties. Click the [Settings] tab. Press the ASCII Setup button. 9. In the [ASCII Sending] group box. Select both Send line ends with line feeds and Echo typed characters locally. Press the OK button. 10.Connect your the CAREU U1 LITE PLUS device and power on,The device startup message will be displayed.
8 11. In [HyperTerminal] window, type in the command "AT$VERSION?" and press the Enter key. The hardware and firmware version will show. As long as your [HyperTerminal] window appears as the screenshot below, a connection between the device and your system has already been built up and working. It is time to send all configuration commands.
9 3.2 Communication Settings The CAREU U1 LITE PLUS Vehicle Tracker communicates with your control center by either SMS or 2G/3G (TCP/UDP). Before the device is installed into a vehicle, communication parameters should be set. 1. SMS Configuration Use AT$SMSDST command to set a SMS control center phone number or short code. For example, if the SMS control center phone number is +886123456789, the AT$SMSDST command to be issued into HyperTerminal should be: AT$SMSDST=+886123456789 OK Then you can try to use cellular phone or SMS gateway to send a SMS message to the CAREU U1 LITE PLUS device. Send a SMS message -->"AT$MODID?" Device will response: $MODID=101000001 OK This proves a successful mobile phone SMS connection. 2.WirelessConfiguration Set GPRS servers by using the folloiwng commands: AT$APN=internet,username,password (APN=internet, Username=username, Password=password) OK AT$HOSTS=1,0,60.148.19.10,6000 (Server IP address = 60.148.19.10 and Port number =6000) OK AT$RETRY=5,10 (Message retry settings) OK AT$IPTYPE=1 (Using TCP/IP mode) OK AT$GPRSEN=1 (GPRS enable) OK
10 AT$HB=60,1 (Heartbeat setting) OK Please refer to the CAREU U1 LITE PLUS Protocol Document for more command details. 3.3 GPS Tracking Configurations After the device communication settings are done, the remote GPS tracking is ready to function. The setting of GPS tracking can be done by using AT$PDSR command. For example, AT$PDSR=1,30,0,0,2,0,0,1,0 (Tracking through GPRS by time interval 30 seconds) OK For simple testing GPRS, run the TCP Server U-Series software which is provided by S&T. It is simple server software that can wait for device connection and data. For advanced testing, you need the software Intelli TracerPlus. Please request this software through your sales contact.
