APPENDIX A – GLOSSARY OF TERMS

Accelerometer –

A sensor used for detecting and measuring vibration.

Accumulate Hours –

The activity time accumulated in the Inputs of the device while the Input is in the user defined state.

Activation –

The activation of a UID (Unique Identifier) on the Globalstar satellite network. The process consists of programming a start and an

end date for the use of the UID and the payment of certain fees to Globalstar. Sometimes referred to as “provisioning.”

At Rest –

A tracker is considered to be at rest when the comparison of a new GPS reading to a previous GPS reading indicates the tracker has

not changed location by more than a specified minimum distance. The specified minimum time and the specified minimum distance are both

configuration parameters.

Configuration –

The collection of variables that control the operating performance of a device.

Configure (configuring) –

Programming (setting) the variables that control the operation performance of a tracker.

Count Events –

The accumulated number of state changes in the Inputs of the device.

Delay to Start –

Specific delay in time following the programming of the device to commence operation.

Desired State –

The state of the Input in normal condition defined by the user.

ESN –

Electronic Serial Number is a unique number assigned to each Integrity 150. The ESN is used by Globalstar Satellite Network to

identify messages from the devices in the field.

Failed GPS reading –

A GPS reading could not be processed from available GPS satellite signals.

FW Ver –

Firmware version is the existing software loaded in the device main processor.

GPS –

The GPS (Global Positioning System) is a "constellation" of 24 well-spaced satellites that orbit the Earth and make it possible for

people with ground receivers to pinpoint their geographic location.

GPS reading –

The longitude, latitude, time, and date information obtained from processing the signals from the GPS satellites.
