Problem is, one of the vehicles works almost 1/2 mile away and seems not enough distance, vibration, or whatever to wake GPS and will show still in the driveway at home for the entire time not matter how long or commands sent. Even calling GPS to wake, trying wkmd,0# or wkmd,0#20# or even sending URL# command it will only report last known GPS position and not the new actual location. This has happened many different locations and scenarios. The gps deep sleep & wake on vibrate function is not handy for me and on many occasions will not show me actual location, only previous checkpoint.
For me, even at cost of more battery I would rather a setting where the GPS can wake on command no matter it's position or length of time stopped. Could you please let me know I can change this setting on mine I'd much appreciate it. Also wanted to point out that to get the GPS to wake, for some reason when I switched to GPSONE from ABLEGRID server and it finally woke itself long enough to report the new parked location but went back to sleep and will only report LBS even tying Live tracking WKMD,0#. Of course we don't need to get new tracking unless it moves to another location however, in this case most of the time the location shown in Platform or URL link is not the actuall. All parameters, to my knowledge or know-how on this, are good, Open view of the sky good signal... I've tested this many times under different conditions trying to find solution and nothing I do will force wake the GPS sensor **unless it moves substantially. I end up many times not knowing the location, only previous one. Thanks for your time and look forward to hearing.
HELLO, the deep sleep mode WKMD,2# will let the GPS goes to SLEEP ,then once it is moved (or detect the vibration, shaking), the gps satellite will wake up, then this is "cold start" that is why you noticed always need to moves a substantial distance
you can text QP# to the tracker, and it will response the detailed information
such as BAT:3.5 to BAT:4.1 3.5 is almost empty battery , 4.1 is full battery
GPS: SLEEP , otherwise, if not put the tracker gps satellite receiver to sleep, the battery at this size can not standby over few months at sms or 10 to 15 days at Live Data mode
GPS tracker have two receiver modules , network (Tmobile ), which always on if Tmobile netwok is ready , and GPS satellite receiver, which at any mode, will go back to sleep after few minutes at the same location to save the battery energy, the satellite receiver consume more power since need continuously get at least three satellites signals at highest precision.
we turned off LBS in USA, since in asia , there is more Cellular towers (population density is totally different than here ), LBS is useful, but in USA, use LBS to locate the location is mostly useless because it can only show the approx. location based on the mobile network tower.
and based on the number of our customers, not everybody need immediate current location, for example, when somebody start the car , the gps will wake up, and after few minutes cold start, as long as the car is moving, the location is current.
if you need always on gps, you should try TK series vehicle tracker TK110 , since it connected to the car battery, the gps is always on.
we will try to launch the GT series for car ,which without any mode setup , directly connect to the car battery , which will meet your requirement.
hope this will answer your question.
