Delivered standard content
The delivered standard package content includes the following items:
1 x GSM/GPS-unit of the model type ME401-9
1 x Mounting cradle
1 x Li-ion Battery (May already be mounted inside the ME401-9 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 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 ME401-9

Ready-to-Use, No Custom Programming Required
Simply connect the unit to supply voltage (12 to 48 V 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 ME401-9 operational states is helpful, configuring the ME401-9 unit does not
require a highly skilled software programmer or technician.

Cost-effective, Universally Available Communications
The ME401-9 unit takes advantage of the near universal availability of GSM 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 ME401-9 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.
