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 an ESN (electronic serial number) on the Globalstar satellite network. The process

consists of programming a start and an end date for the use of the ESN 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 that 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 SmartOne device. The ESN is used by the

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.
