Getting Started

Before turning on the tracker, it is recommended to insert the SIM cards and charge the 

battery. 

Installation of SIM-cards

The AutoGRAPH-Mobile is equipped with a dual SIM holder.  

Do a test of a new SIM card in a cell phone before you install it into the controller. This ensures that GPRS 
/ SMS / USSD services are enabled and operate properly, the PIN code matches the code preset in the 
controller (in order to prevent locking), and the personal account associated with the SIM card has the 
sufficient balance for successful operation of the services. 

IMPORTANT

The SIM card installed in the lower retaining slot of the SIM holder is the main card. When 

switched on, the AutoGRAPH-Mobile will operate with this SIM card. The SIM card installed 

in the upper retaining slot of the SIM holder is the backup card. The tracker will switch to the 

backup SIM card, when the primary one is unavailable (disabled, damaged or not inserted).

For proper operation it is quite sufficient to insert main SIM card in AutoGRAPH-Mobile. But 

the backup card provides the appropriate operation of the tracker even if the main SIM card is 

damaged. Due to this the tracker will stay connected and be able to transfer data. 

To install a SIM card:

•  Unscrew the four fastening 

screws and remove the back cover 

of the tracker.
•  Insert a SIM card into the lower 

retaining slot of the holder with the 

card’s contacts facing the PCB 

(see fig.1). Be sure that the card’s 

keying matches the key on the 

PCB.
•  If necessary, insert a second SIM 

card in the upper retaining slot of 

the holder with the card’s contacts 

facing  downwards  (see  fig.3). 

Be sure that the card’s keying 

matches the key on the PCB.
•  When the SIM cards are inserted, 

replace the back cover and tighten 

the four fastening screws.

AutoGRAPH-Mobile Functions

Coordinate acquisition

In normal mode, the AutoGRAPH-Mobile 

acquires coordinates of the asset after the 

specified period and records the coordinates 

into FLASH memory. When turning on the 

tracker for the first time, it can take up to 26 

seconds to acquire the position. The acqui-

sition time depends on how clear the view of 

the sky is and for the best performance, it is 

recommended to locate the tracker with the 

GPS/GLONASS antenna facing the sky. It is 

not recommended to cover the tracker with a 

metallic object.

State of the GNSS receiver is indicated with 

the NAVIGATION/CHARGING LED (see the 

“Tracker’s Indication” section). Depending on 

settings, the tracker can switch to Standby 

mode, when the asset is in an idle state. As 

soon as motion is detected, the tracker will 

return to normal mode of operation.

Data transmission

Collected tracking data is transferred to a 

preset server. The tracker must be covered by 

GSM network and GPRS must be available 

to transfer the data to the server. The state of 

the GSM modem is indicated with the GSM 

LED (see the “Tracker’s Indication” section). 

When the GSM modem is OFF, the GSM LED 

does not flash. If a SIM card is not inserted or 

incorrect PIN is entered, the tracker switches 

the GSM modem off and data transmission 

is not available. 

SMS

Incoming SMS 

The AutoGRAPH-Mobile supports remote 

configuration.  To  configure  the  tracker 

remotely, you should send an SMS with a 

control command to the tracker, ensuring 

that the telephone number of the active SIM 

card is used. Advanced customers can send 

the settings via the data server.    

Outgoing SMS

On request, the tracker sends the current 

coordinates to the customer by SMS. The 

coordinates are sent as a link to an online 

mapping service. By default, the tracker sup-

ports Yandex Maps, Yandex Satellite, Goog-

le Maps, and Google Satellite services, but 

the customer can specify any other format 

of the coordinates using the AGMobileConf 

Program.  

Also the tracker can be set up to send a no-

tification by SMS, when it enters / exits  the 

geofenced area.

Alert signal

This option is designed for use in life 

threatening or other emergency situations.

The AutoGRAPH-Mobile is equipped with 

an SOS button and capable of sending an 

alert SMS with the current coordinates of the 

asset. In an emergency, press and hold the 

alert button for at least 3 seconds. 

The AutoGRAPH-Mobile can be customized 

to perform the following actions, when the 

alert button is pressed:

To send SMS with the current coordinates

The tracker can be set up to send an SMS 

with asset’s coordinates to preset telephone 

numbers. Up to 4 telephone numbers can be 

stored in the tracker’s memory. 
The tracker sends two alert SMS messages. 

The  first  message  is  short  and  contains 

time of alert activation and the current 

coordinates, if they are available. The second 

SMS contains the current coordinates and 

the last valid coordinates of the asset. The 

coordinates are sent as a link to an online 

mapping service.  

The first (short) SMS is designed to be sent 

as one message to increase the reliability of 

data delivery. The second SMS is longer than 

the first one, therefore, it may be received as

multiple messages, which can cause data loss if one of the messages isn’t delivered to the 

customer.  
If coordinate acquisition is unavailable using the GNSS, the tracker will determine its 

approximate GSM localization. As soon as the coordinates are available, the device will send 

them to the customer. 

To send data to a preset server 

The tracker can be set up to transfer the collected data to a preset server before the next 

period of data transfer. Note, that in the alert mode the tracker transfers the data from internal 

memory in roaming even if the data transmission in roaming is disabled in the tracker’s 

settings.

To make a voice call

The tracker can be set up to send a voice message to preset telephone numbers. The tracker 

will call to all preset numbers in sequence until one of the recipients answers the call. When 

answering the call, the recipient will hear a preset voice message.  

The AutoGRAPH-Mobile remembers state of  the SOS button even after the restart. If the tracker does 
not perform all preset functions of the SOS button before turning off, it will complete tasks after turning 
on.

Mobile can be configured to switch to Sleep 

mode when an asset is not moving or external 

power of AutoGRAPH-Mobile is turned off.

The events forcing the device to switch to 

Sleep mode can be easily set up by remote 

configuration commands or in the MobileConf 

program. 

When the device is in Sleep mode, main 

functional modules of the device are turned 

off. Consequently, data is not recorded and 

not transferred. 

Sleep mode when asset is not moving

The device can be set up to switch to 

Sleep mode when the asset equipped with  

AutoGRAPH-Mobile is not moving. The 

device detects moving according data 

from an internal accelerometer and if there 

is  no  moving  during  specified  interval, 

AutoGRAPH-Mobile switches to Sleep mode. 

As motion is started, the device switches to 

normal mode of operation. Also Sleep mode 

can be cancelled by pressing SOS button on 

the device. 

Sleep mode when external power supply is 

switched off

The device can be set up to operate only 

from external power supply. If this option is 

enabled, external power turning off switches 

the device to Sleep mode till the external 

power is restored.

The switching to Sleep mode can take from 15 

to 75 seconds (20 seconds as the average). 

After that the external power switches off, 

the device stays in normal mode powered 

by the internal battery in order to transfer 

collected data to server. After transferring the 

data, AutoGRAPH-Mobile switches to Sleep 

mode. 
If it is not available to transfer data, Sleep 

mode is delayed for 60 seconds. After that 

AutoGRAPH-Mobile tries to send data one 

more time and then switches to Sleep mode 

even no data has been transferred. 
AutoGRAPH-Mobile stays in Sleep mode 

until external power is restored, SOS signal 

is activated by long press of the button or 

special key combination is applied. 
If Sleep mode is cancelled by long press of 

SOS button, AutoGRAPH-Mobile switches 

to Sleep mode again after processing all 

operations which are preset for SOS button. 
If Sleep mode is cancelled by the special key 

combination, AutoGRAPH-Mobile switches 

to normal mode for 3 periods of data 

transmission but not less than 5 seconds and 

not longer than 20 minutes.

To cancel Sleep mode by key combination:

•  press SOS button and hold it for at least 1 

second (but not longer than 2 seconds);

•  pause for at least 1 second (but not longer 

than 2 seconds);

•  shortly double press SOS button of the 

device.
