3. INSTALLATION
3.9 Aktivate the GPS anti-theft
protection area
Before the anti-theft protection area can be activated,
a SIM card must be installed and the administrator’s
phone number must be entered into the GPS
communication unit (see 4.3 Using
GPS-communication on page 39).
1. Place Automower
®
at the centre of the required
protection area, often in the middle of the lawn
Automower
®
is going to mow. Avoid placing
Automower
®
under trees, roofs or close to a
house, as this weakens the GPS signal.
2. Set the main switch to the ON position.
3. Go to the mower's Security (4-1) menu, enter
your PIN code and press YES. Place the cursor
on GPS (4-1-4) and press YES. Select ON to
activate and press YES. Make sure that Alarm
(4-1-3) and Time lock (4-1-2) are activated for
total functionality. The GPS unit now
automatically indexes the position as the central
point. This can take up to 15 minutes.
4. Leave the mower in the same position until the
GPS unit confirms the central point by sending
an SMS containing the text Circular geofence On
followed by the GPS coordinates for the central
point.
5. Automower
®
has now an activated circular
protection area with a radius of 100 metres from
the central point. If the mower is moved outside
the protection area, an alarm is triggered and the
GPS communication unit sends an SMS alert
message to the designated phone numbers.
If required, the radius can be increased (see 4.3
Using GPS-communication on page 39).
You can deactivate the GPS anti-theft protection at
any time by going to the mower’s Security menu,
entering your PIN code and deactivating the GPS
(4-1-4). This may be of use, when the mower for
instance must be transported to your dealer for a
winter service.
