Non-functioning units must be returned to an authorized service center for repair or replacement. Accessories and Batteries Use only approved accessories or batteries. Do not connect incompatible products. There is risk of explosion or fire if an incorrect type replacement battery contacts are shorted. Do not exceed the temperature ranges or other environmental conditions specified by the battery manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions provided with the batteries. Water-Resistance The ME501-X series is water-resistant according to the IP-67 standard. It is however recommended that it is be used where it is relatively dry and not subjected to either water streams or submersion. Detailed Safety Information Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals The ME501-X unit is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. Periodically the ME501-X wakes up either due to activity or by a timer. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals for a short period of time. The ME501-X unit cannot be turned off after installation; however the unit is mostly asleep waiting for either the wake-up timer or activity on the acceleration sensor. The unit operation can continue for approximately 3 to 4 days depending on the charging state of the backup battery. LoJack Track unit v3a, October 2014 Page 5 ME501-X The ME501-X unit is not designed to be worn on a persons body. Electronic Devices Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals generated by the ME501-X unit. Pacemakers The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of six (6) inches be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. The following precautions apply:
The ME501-X unit is not intended for handheld use or to be worn on the body. It is recommended that a minimum separation of ten (8) inches (20 cm) is to be maintained between the ME501-X unit and any persons body at all times.

LoJack Track unit v3a, October 2014 Page 7 ME501-X Delivered standard content The delivered standard package content includes the following items:
1 x (GSM/UMTS)/GPS-unit of the model type ME501-X 1 x mounting cradle 1 x Li-ion Battery (May already be mounted inside the ME501-X unit) 1 x Fuse with fuse holder In case the unit is delivered with SIM card from the factory (Either US or EU SIM card as indicated on the product label), then the GSM/UMTS number will be indicated on the delivery note as well as on the package itself. NOTE: In case the SIM card is delivered from factory it is mounted inside the ME501-
X unit. Ready-to-Use, No Custom Programming Required Simply connect the unit to supply voltage (12V/24V/48V DC). In its default configuration, reports are sent nominally at 15-minute intervals or faster whenever there is motion. Upon powering up, the device will self-initialize anywhere in the world and start transmitting if an authorized GSM network is available. While a basic understanding of the different ME501-X operational states is helpful, configuring the ME501-X unit does not require a highly skilled software programmer or technician. Cost-effective, Universally Available Communications The ME501-X unit takes advantage of the near universal availability of GSM/UMTS SMS text messaging while also leveraging cost-effective GPRS data rate plans. Typical SMS plans offer very extensive inter-network roaming capabilities, both within a host country and internationally. SMS plans also tend to be too pricey for applications requiring more than a few reports per day. GPRS data plans, on the other hand, typically allow for lower recurring communication costs although GPRS coverage and roaming can be restricted in some areas. The ME501-X unit takes advantage of both technologies by automatically selecting GPRS wherever such service is available, while relying upon SMS text messages for configuration purpose only. This helps minimize recurring communication costs while allowing the greatest coverage possible. LoJack Track unit v3a, October 2014 Page 8 ME501-X Installing the unit Practical installation advice It is very important to be careful when installing the unit, as incorrect installation will reduce the quality of the GPS position reports (Ex. could be a jump in position or showing speed while parking) or in the worst case scenario will prevent the unit performing any position reporting at all. The unit must NOT be installed beneath metal plates or inside closed metal compartments. Incorrect installation will also reduce the standby time of the battery inside the unit The unit must be mounted either horizontally or vertically (sideways) using either screws or strips. The unit must not be installed with the interface/supply cable hanging down, as this definitely will reduce the GPS sensitivity. Optimize the placement of the unit to increase the aerial view (through windows etc.) as much as possible. For hiding the unit, make sure it is only mounted beneath plastic parts or similar parts (wood), but not beneath metal parts. To reduce hum and noise in the FM radio it is recommended to place the unit at a minimum distance of 20 inches (50 cm) from the radio or the loudspeakers. Connections The connections depend on the type of vehicles / machines etc. in which the
(GSM/UMTS)/GPS unit is to be installed. Different variants of the ME501-X device will have only a subset of the connections shown in the table below. Please contact your nearest sales office, distributor or Reseller for further information about the availability of other variants in your area. Wire ME501-X function

The use of a fused supply wire is important for not damaging the wires related to the unit in case of a short circuit etc. Digital inputs The activation of a digital input requires a minimum high level voltage of 8V. Digital output The digital output has the type indication LO-side switch, that connects the output to 0V ground, when the output is active. This output can be used to control a relay powered from an external DC supply voltage. The maximum current drawn from the output is 200mA and the voltage from the external supply voltage must not exceed 52V DC. The output is protected against short circuits, overload and is also protected against over voltage. For further information about connection possibilities of the digital output, see chapters about installation later in this manual. Motion/acceleration sensor The unit has a built-in 3 axis acceleration sensor that is able to activate the unit if it, as a consequence of disconnected supply voltage, is in stand-by mode. 1-Wire input The 1-wire (Green wire) is designed to communicate with Dallas iButton Key or LoJack RFID/PIN reader for access control. The 1-wire input is only operational when supply voltage (12V / 24V / 48V) is present. It cannot operate on internal battery alone. Installing the ME501-X as to surpass the main switch on the machine:
In case the main switch on the machine will break the negative wire (Ground wire), the inputs may register a voltage level and start counting operating hours. To avoid this situation the digital input 4 (Pink wire) should be connected to the chassis/ground on the machine. Then send the following SMS to the unit (phone number) to activate the filtering:
Function Activate filter function on inputs. NOTE: Enabling the filtering function will disable the use of the digital input 4 as a Return-SMS from the unit MTC ACK (SERIAL No.) INFILT ON Send SMS MT INFILT ON normal input. NOTE:
It is recommended always to connect digital input 2 to the ignition signal of the vehicle or machine. NOTE: For the Send SMS it is of no importance if small or capital letters are used in the command string, or a mixture hereof.
