Trackunit Kin Related Information The Trackunit web site is found at www.trackunit.com. This site links to the fleet management system from Trackunit Aps called Trackunit Manager. Trackunit KIN devices are integrated to Trackunit but can also be used together with third part system providers. Safety first Simple Guidelines Please follow these guidelines when configuring, using, or recycling the Trackunit KIN. Violating these guidelines may be dangerous, illegal or otherwise detrimental.
Trackunit Kin Detailed Safety Information Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals The Trackunit KIN unit is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. Periodically the Trackunit KIN wakes up either due to activity or by a timer. When it is ON, it receives and sends out radio frequency (RF) signals for a short period of time. The Trackunit KIN unit is designed for assets tracking only. Electronic Devices Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals.
Trackunit Kin The transmitter power is very low and as such, the device is exempted for routine evaluations and body worn positions for the Trackunit Kin are not required by either the IEC 62311 or FCC part 2.1091, IEEE or ICNIRP requirements for operation in the Bluetooth LE band. Battery Safety Information Adhere to the following guidelines to avoid the risk of fire or explosion: 1. Dispose of the used Trackunit Kin units with batteries battery according to the instructions provided with the battery. 2.
Trackunit Kin Trackunit Kin is a true industrialized “Beacon” that targets high-volume, cost-sensitive telematics applications primarily for asset location tracking. Kin is designed with robustness, IP Class, and feature flexibility in mind. Kin is not designed to be the cheapest, smallest possible Beacon in the broad market of Bluetooth Beacons. Kin has a strong Bluetooth SoC embedded, and a full flexible firmware stack to enable additional features.
Trackunit Kin Installing the unit Use location – Children not likely to be present This equipment design typically applies to commercial or industrial equipment expected to be installed in locations where only adults are normally present. Wireless connectivity and product interoperability The Trackunit Kin operates in the Bluetooth LE band for reporting positions to the Trackunit Locator APP or to the Trackunit TU600 installed in the nearby machinery.
Trackunit Kin Kin Onboarding When coming out of the factory the Trackunit Kin tag is put in an inactive state where it is not advertising. To activate the tag the sticker, must be removed, as this will trigger the light detector and wake up the processor. To indicate that the Kin tag have been activated the green LED will blink for 5 seconds. Please note that the activation can be delayed up to 3 seconds. The Kin tag is now activated and will advertise forever, even when its in the dark again.
Trackunit Kin Configuration The following can be configured on the device: Advertisement Interval, from 1 to 120 seconds in steps of seconds Tx Power (conducted), from -3dBm to 6dBm in steps of 0.1dBm (Antenna gain not included) Activity Measurement Period, following the Advertisement Interval Activity Threshold will be included in Rev. 0.6 of the document Configuration is only allowed after a successful challenge/response exchange, to ensure access for trusted users only.
Trackunit Kin Installation of Trackunit Kin The Trackunit Kin can be fixed to any assets by using any of the methods shown below: Practical installation advice It is very important to be careful when installing the unit, as incorrect installation will reduce the possible asset tracking capabilities. The unit must NOT be installed beneath metal plates or inside closed metal compartments. The unit must be mounted in any position horizontally, vertically (sideways) etc.
Trackunit Kin The installation position on multiple assets must be insured to be random to increase the theft protection. It is needed to sign up a different subscription for each installed Trackunit KIN unit under insurance coverage that covers the local alarm center administration of the units.
