1. If I am not using the vehicle, will the device not merge the battery?

   In the module, you can parameterize that how long should it take from turning off the ignition to battery saving mode. In this mode, the power consumption is a lot less.

2. Is the FleetTrax device harmful to your health?

   It has the same effect on health, than any other mobile phone.

3. The device is not connecting to the GPRS net. Why?

   Check the APN settings, the power supply and power requirements of the module, as well as the GSM antenna connection and signal strength.

4. The module sends a long line of continuous letter / sequence SMS message to the SMS forwarding featured phone number. What is the reason for this?

   This phenomenon happens when you do not receive a regular SMS (text) to the phone module, but some kind of a multimedia message (MMS photo) or some other encoded message (for example, encoded Cyrillic letters with accents or other capitalization). An industrial phone module is not able to handle this, that's why the mentioned letters/sequences are converted into Unicode form and are forwarded to your phone (depending on the size of the message 1 MMS can be received in 3 or 4 SMSs). Please note that in this case there is no problem with the device itself, but this phenomenon is caused by the above-described reason. If this occurs regularly, there is a good chance that it is an advertising / marketing message sent by the service provider, which can only be stopped by either asking the service-provider not to send such messages to this given phone number or by turning off the message forwarding function (in the settings: delete the SMS forwarding phone number), if this function is not absolutely necessary.
