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.

Battery/Sensor Pack

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

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™)
