11. Basic trouble shooting problem device doesn’t work

11.1 Trouble shooting steps
1. Check Vehicle Battery voltage, if less than 9 volts or over 32 volts, replace vehicle battery or
get the vehicle electrical system rectified
2. Check for Power Connection (both +ve and -ve) and if loose or disconnected, reconnect
3. Check FUSE and if blown off, replace it with 5 A Blade Fuse
4. Check FUSE Holder and if it is loose and/or broken replace the cable

If GPS LED is OFF:

1. Check if the vehicle is parked in a covered area and move the vehicle to an open area
2. Check the location of device installation in the vehicle and follow instructions in this manual
to correct it
3. Check if there is any metal above the device and if yes, change the location of the vehicle
where there is no metal surrounding the device.
4. Check if any metal or item kept on the device and clear the same

If Processor LED is OFF:

1. Contact aQuiLa Track Customer Care

If GSM LED is OFF:

1. Remove SIM card from the device and check in a mobile for SIM registration.

12. Device installation

It is highly recommended that installation of TS101 advanced device and its accessories must be
done by a trained technician only.

Handle the device with care and do not place any heavyweights on the device. There is a Li-ion
battery inside.

Note: Engineering Documents highly Confidential this is only for internal operation. Page 16 of 21
 iTriangle Infotech Pvt Ltd

It is recommended that the TS101 advanced device not be installed in the places prone to water and
rain. Remove TS101 advanced device during servicing to avoid accidental water splash and high
voltages.

12.1 Installation Steps:

1) Open the Box and check for contents as specified on the box
2) Take the SIM card that you have purchased from a mobile operator
3) Insert SIM card in any Mobile Phone to check, SIM card for Registration, Activation and GPRS
connectivity
4) If all parameters are found working, insert the SIM card in the holder as shown in the picture
below in this document.
5) Switch ON internal Device Battery
6) Connect device to vehicle battery/ continuous power source in the vehicle as explained below
in this document
7) Keep the vehicle in an Open area
8) Check for processor status
a.) A healthy Processor is indicated by an LED (RED) on the front panel of the device that will
blink at every 4 seconds
b.) If the Processor is not working nor has a problem, this LED will be steadily ON
9) Check for GPS Fix:
a.) The GPS LED (Blue Colour) does not blink till the device gets the good GPS Fix
b.) Once the device gets GPS fix, the GPS LED starts to blink at every second.
10) Check for GSM/GPRS Connectivity:
a.) Wait for 2 – 3 minutes after connecting the device to the vehicle battery to get the SIM
registered to the Operator Network.
b.) While the device is getting registered to the Mobile Operator network, the GSM LED (Green)
will blink frequently
c.) Once the device is connected to the GSM service provider network the GSM LED (Green) will
start to blink at every 4 seconds.
11) 5 – 10 minutes after connecting the device to the vehicle battery, all the 3 LEDs start to blink
indicating that the device is communicating with the configure server

12.2 Power Connection – Commercial Vehicles

1. Remove the Ignition Key

2. Run Red (+ve) and Black (-ve) wires from the battery till the location of the device placement.
Ensure that the wiring is done firmly and neatly without any hanging or sagging of wires. Use
self-adhesive cable Tie mounts and cable ties to do the wiring.

3. Connect Red wire of TS101 advanced device power cable (Long Cable) to the +ve (Red) cable
drawn from the vehicle battery and ensure that the connection is firm.

4. Connect the Black wire of the TS101 Advanced device power cable (Long Cable) to the (-ve)
Black wire drawn from the vehicle battery and ensure that connection is firm.

Note: Engineering Documents highly Confidential this is only for internal operation. Page 17 of 21

5. Check if the dash board is made of Metal or Plastic/ Fiber

6. If the dash board is made of metal, install the device outside the dash board only

7. If the dash board is made of Fiber or Plastic, Device can be installed inside the dash board

12.3 Power Connection – Personal Vehicles

1. Remove the Ignition Key

2. Identify the power line +ve cable coming from the battery to the ignition switch by measuring
the voltage between each of the wire coming in to the ignition switch assembly.

3. See if the metal conductor in the Connect or wire connection point at the ignition switch is
accessible; else remove the skin from each of the wire.

4. Firmly hold the (+ve) Red probe of the multimeter to the wire conductor and (-ve) Black probe
of the multimeter to the GND point (- ve terminal of the vehicle battery or any screw / bolt
directly connected to metal body of the vehicle).

5. Voltage at the (+ve) wire of the (Incoming supply line) ignition should be matching to the
battery voltage of the vehicle

6. Check the voltage at the Ignition input point at

 Voltage OFF condition

 Vehicle Ignition ON condition
 Vehicle Engine start condition
 Maximum acceleration at Neutral/Stationary

In any condition, the voltage should not exceed 32V. Please do not install the device in the
vehicle if the voltage is beyond 32V

7. Connect Red wire of the TS101 Advanced device power cable to the + ve (Red) cable at the
vehicle ignition input by removing the small portion of the PVC skin at least 2-Inch away from
the ignition switch (If already removed the skin for testing the voltage, use the same)

8. Connect the Black wire of the TS101 advanced device power cable to the GND by connecting
the wire to the –ve terminal of the vehicle battery or to the point where GND wire of any of the
other accessories of the vehicle is connected and ensure that the connection is very Firm/Tight.

9. For all vehicles other than cars and SUVs, it is highly recommended to connect the +ve and –
ve of the device directly to the vehicle battery.

12.4 Connection to Ignition Output in the Vehicle

Note: Engineering Documents highly Confidential this is only for internal operation. Page 18 of 21
 iTriangle Infotech Pvt Ltd

1.Take each wire other than the +ve wire connecting the ignition switch assembly and look for a
metal conductor/ connector pin of the wire at the switch end, if not found remove a small
portion of the PVC skin at least 2 inch away from the switch end .

2. Keep the Ignition Switch in OFF position and follow the switch below

3. Firmly hold the Red probe of the multimeter at the skinned portion of each of the wire one-
by-one and black probe of the multimeter to the GND (- ve terminal of the vehicle battery or any
screw /Bolt directly connected to metal body of the vehicle) and measure the voltage. The
voltage must be ZERO when the Ignition is in OFF position.

4. Keep the ignition switch in accessories position and follow the step below.

5. Firmly hold the Red probe of the multimeter at the skinned portion of each of the wire one-
by-one and black probe of the multimeter to the GND (- ve terminal of the vehicle battery or any
screw /Bolt directly connected to metal body of the vehicle) and measure the voltage. The
voltage must be equal to the battery voltage when the ignition is in accessories position at least
one wire shows ZERO voltage when the ignition is in accessories position.

6. Keep the Ignition switch in ON position and follow the steps below

7. Take the wires that showed ZERO volts when the ignition at accessories position, firmly hold
the Red probe of the multimeter at the skinned portion of the wire and Black probe of the
multimeter to the GND ( -ve terminal of the vehicle battery or any screw/ bolt directly
connected to metal body of the vehicle) and measure the voltage. The voltage must be equal to
the battery voltage when the Ignition is in ON position. Connect the GREEN wire of device wire
cable to that wire it shows ZERO when the ignition switch is at accessories and showed BATTERY
VOLTAGE when the Ignition is at ON position.

2. What are GPS tracking alerts

GPS tracking alerts are unique limits that a customer can set up for their tracked vehicle.
When the limit is broken, an SMS is sent to the customer by admin numbers which is pre-

will be notified. Depending on which GPS tracking system or service plan the customer
chooses, they will be alerted to these types of occurrence
