Sendum Sensor Packs contain the
battery used to power the PT300D.
3. Charge up your Sensor Pack
a) In order to use your PT300D, as well as
to provision it, you’ll need to have your
Sensor Pack fully charged.
b) To charge your Sensor Pack, simply
plug your charger into any standard
electrical receptacle using the supplied
Battery Charger and cable.

Charger
If your Sensor Pack has been sitting on
the shelf for awhile, the battery charge
may be too low to permit provisioning.
In that case, allow up to six hours of
charging before getting started.
4. Activate Your Wireless Account
Your PT300D has been configured for use with
the wireless service provider that you selected
when you purchased your device. What’s
missing is a new M2M (machine-to-machine)
airtime account that you need to set up and
activate with that provider. You can do this by
contacting them and providing them with the
Device Identifier number of your device.
The Device Identifier is device-specific
serial number found on the back of the
PT300D Command Module.

Module
a) Request an M2M airtime account with
SMS texting capability. Typical data plan
sizes are 1 MB, 5 MB, and 10 MB.
Each MB in your data plan allows
for approximately 1,000 network
communication sessions (i.e. for
location fixes, sensor reports, and
alarm notifications).
b) After setting up and activating your
account, proceed to step “5. Provision
your PT300D”.
c) After setting up and activating your
airtime account, please proceed to step
“6. Log into your Findum Account” on
page 4.
5. Provision your PT300D
a) Once your airtime account is activated
and your Sensor Pack fully charged,
plug the pack into the PT300D
Command Module.
You can also learn the Provisioning
process by watching our video at
www.sendum.com/pt300av
b) Make sure the connection between the
Command Module and the Sensor Pack
is solid and that you hear the confirming
“Click” sound.
i) This step initiates communication
with both your carrier and with
Sendum. While communicating,
both the Network and Battery LEDs
will go on and off periodically.
ii) When complete (about a minute),
both Network and Battery lights will
go solid green (indicating success).
c) Remove Command Module from Sensor
Pack
i) To remove the PT300D Command
Module, squeeze the two tabs on
the side of the device, then pull the
module out of the Sensor Pack.

ii) Your PT300D Command Module
is now provisioned and ready for
deployment with any fully charged
Sensor Pack.
Before deploying your provisioned
PT300D, make sure to fully charge
your Sensor Pack. Note again that this
can take up to six hours.
6. Log into your Findum Account
a) Open up your web browser and go to
Sendum’s web portal (called Findum™)
at findum.sendum.com
b) Log into your account by using the same
email address and password that you
used when you (or whomever from your

you. From there, you can set a new
