Installation manual TRACK 1215 for BLE tag scanning in vehicles www.sensolus.com | info@sensolus.com January 19, 2026 Tracker activation Activation of the tracker is preferably done with clear skies, and not inside (e.g. factory or warehouse). Trackers are not activated when delivered to your premises. Their subscription in the platform will start within six months of purchase. 1 Hold a magnet for about 5 seconds on top of the logo on the tracker. → 2 You will first see a red LED. Do not remove the magnet yet. → 3 When the green LED is blinking you can remove the magnet. The tracker is ready for use. Activation troubleshooting Activating a tracker that communicates over the NB-IoT network can sometimes come with a delay. With a delay we mean that the online status doesn&#39;t appear within 5 minutes after holding the magnet to the tracker. This is mostly due to conditions on the network operator site. If the activation wasn&#39;t successful after 5 minutes the tracker will try again to activate again after waiting 24 hours. This long period of time is often an obstacle to start installing trackers to assets and makes the timing of the installation of the trackers cumbersome as it is important to only install trackers when they appeared as online on the platform. To overcome the 24 hours waiting time, you can do the following: If after 5 minutes of waiting and the status didn&#39;t change yet to “online” hold the magnet again for 5 seconds on top of the tracker to enforce a new attempt for activation. Keep trying every 5 minutes until the Online status appears. General installation adviceInstallation manual TRACK 1215 for BLE tag scanning in vehicles www.sensolus.com | info@sensolus.com January 19, 2026 If your asset is handled in a rough environment, you can place the tracker in a protected location, but never with metal or carbonfibre above the tracker. Place the tracker as high as possible on the asset to ensure good network coverage. Make sure the mounting surface is flat and clean, for a strong and durable bond. Do not install the tracker on parts that receive frequent shocks or vibrations. Avoid placing the tracker in a place that can collect water. Preparing the installation in the vehicle Tools and equipment Enough 2 wire cable Steel fish tape Cable duct Male and female spade connectors Fork connectors Cable protector Wire cutter Screwdriver Double sided tape Wrench set Stanley knife Electrical fuse (> 500mA and < 1A) Before the actual wiring

TRACK 1215 cable wiring

External power source - cable wiring

The cable provided with TRACK 1215 has a length of 2 meters. The cable allows connecting the tracker to a power source of a vehicle (car / truck / trailer battery). A cable of 6 meters can be purchased separately.
The optional power source must be within the range of 10V to 30V, direct current (DC) . Be aware that you need to supply your own connectors (U-shaped or circular clamps) and solder them to the wires (reason: different vehicles batteries have different sizes of connectors). Protect the soldering using heat shrink. The external cable is composed of 4 internal wires:
  • Black : GND / Ground. Connect to black battery terminal (negative, minus sign).
  • Red : VIN External voltage in. Connect to red battery terminal (positive, plus sign).
  • Blue : Digital In / Analog In (not in use currently; pending a future firmware release).
  • White : Digital Out. (not in use currently; pending a future firmware release).
