Presentation

Entirely dedicated to geo-localization and embedded data services, the modem GenLoc 41e combines both

GSM/GPRS and GPS functions in the same robust case.

The GPS data can be transmitted by SMS or data GSM/GPRS communication.

This product includes the GPS function 50 channels Hypersense and its sensitivity ensures the GPS data

collection in difficult environmental conditions.

The modem is Quad-Bands 850/900/1800/1900 MHz and GSM/GPRS Class 10.

The GenLoc 41e has 3 operating modes:

▪External mode (standard): The driving is made by an external application. The modem is used with

the AT commands set (see EG_EGM_CL_xxx_yy of ERCOGENER).

▪Autonomous mode (optional): Once configured, the modem is autonomous; it cyclically registers the

positions and transmits them automatically to the client’s application via different services: SMS,

GSM Data, TCP socket GPRS (see EG_EaseLoc_01_CL_xxx_yy of ERCOGENER).

▪Specific development mode: the EGM development tool allows to develop a personalized embedded

application. For more information concerning the tools and the training, please contact our sales

department.

The GenLoc 41e provides digital inputs/outputs allowing the creation of embedded telematic solutions with

high added value.

This document describes the modem and provides the following information:

- General presentation,

- Functional description,

- Available basic services,

- Installation and use of the modem (first level),

- Trouble shooting,

- Recommended accessories for the use of the modem.

- Options, contact us.

Warning

The GenLoc 41eis dedicated to 'Machine To Machine' (M2M) applications only.

ERCOGENER recommends the use of SIM card subscriptions of the 'Machine To Machine'

(M2M) type.

Video, VoIP (Voice over IP) transfer requires the payment of additional royalties.

ERCOGENER advises to read carefully all the documents concerning the GenLoc 41e (User Guide,

Application Notes, Command List)that can be download on our website www.ercogener.com.

ERCOGENER cannot be held responsible for:

- The problems due to an inappropriate use of the GenLoc 41e.

- The problems due to a wrong configuration

- The problems due to a wrong use of an embedded software application developed or

supplied by a third party.

- Dysfunctions due to the absence or a bad coverage or termination of the GSM, GPRS and

GPS networks.

- The dysfunctions if the product is used for the watching of physical persons where human

life is engaged.

ERCOGENER reserves the right to modify the functions of its products "GenLoc 41e" and

"EaseLoc" without previous notice.

- In order to avoid any risk of electrocution, do not open the casing.

- For any functioning, the casing must be closed.

- No internal part can be repaired by the user. The GenLoc 41e must be returned to the factory for any repair

the RMA request (Return Material Authorization).

- The GenLoc 41e must be placed in a normally ventilated area, out of sources of heat.

- In order to guarantee the electromagnetic compatibility, the length of the serial cable, the supply cable and

the inputs/outputs cable must not exceed 3 meters.

- The GenLoc 41e must not be connected directly to the mains supply; a voltage adapter must be used.

This marking on the product, accessories, packaging or literature indicates that the product

and its electronic accessories (e.g. cable etc.) should not be disposed of with other household

waste.
