Usage Features:
- SIM Card Installation: Requires a Micro SIM card (15x12mm) compatible with 2G networks. Users must ensure the SIM card has sufficient balance, GPRS data plan, and a closed PIN code. Authorization for SOS numbers is crucial for proper SMS functionality.
- GPS Antenna Placement: For optimal GPS signal reception, the top side of the S20 should face the sky. Avoid installing the device where it might be shielded by metal.
- Tracking by Calling: A simple method to get the device's location. Calling the SIM card number inside the S20 will trigger an SMS reply containing a Google Maps link to the current location.
- Tracking by SMS Command: Users can send specific SMS commands (e.g., "000000,C01" for current location) to retrieve information. The default SMS password is "000000" and can be changed using the B10 command.
