A confirmation email is sent to you when the renewal is active. It indicates the end of the activation process.
When you log in to the application, your smartphone is automatically installed as a tracker.
You can also click directly on these links:
Capturs Android application
Capturs IOS application
1 – Activate the position and mobile data on your smartphone.
2 – Click on 
3 – An insert appears:
Choose the frequency of sending the position (2min or 10s).
Share your tracking link if you wish.
Click on continue.
4 – To stop the live tracking, click on 
2 – Verify that you have authorized the application to access the position.
3 – On Android, go to the power saving settings (watch the picture below).
So you need to log out with the top right button and choose the connection mode of the account on which the device has been saved: with Google, Facebook, Apple or with an email address.
As the device has a GPS module, depending on the number of satellites it can fix to find its position, the accuracy of the positions may vary, and may cause a shift off course.
Using your smartphone as a tracker with the mobile application allows you to benefit from a more accurate trajectory. Indeed, the smartphone uses GSM data, so the data is closer together.
If you have the latest version of the driver installed, it may be necessary to change the USB cable if it is not the original one because some cables are not compatible with the data transfer necessary to recover the memory of the device.
On Mac, there may be a conflict with the internal driver already present and it is necessary to follow the following procedure:
1 – Download the drivers at https://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm and install them. The installation will succeed, BUT because of the FTDI drivers built into Apple, they won’t work.
2 – Restart the computer and enter recovery mode by turning off and holding CMD + R on reboot.
3 – In recovery mode, open the terminal from the utilities at the top of the screen and type the following to temporarily disable system integrity protection:
csrutil disable
The computer will ask you to restart for the changes to take effect.
4 – On reboot, we now need to disable Apple’s FTDI drivers (NOTE: this can be undone at any time, don’t worry).
Open the Terminal and write the following.
cd /system/library/extensions
sudo mv AppleUSBFTDI.kext AppleUSBFTDI.disabled
sudo touch /Système/Bibliothèque / Extensions
5 – Restart your computer in recovery mode. Turn off, hold Commande + R and open the terminal in the Utilitaires.
Enter the following information to re-enable Apple’s system integrity protection

The main position losses come from the stalling of the signals between the device and the satellites, thus preventing the triangulation of the position:
– From GPS fix just after departure, cold, where the device could no longer see the constellation of the satellites, and therefore needs about 3 minutes before starting to move to find their position and thus start to fix its position correctly.
– From the outside environment: trees, buildings and even clouds can prevent the proper reception of data from a satellite and can cause triangulation to be prevented or accuracy to be lost.

Create a low battery alert. The alert will be triggered when the battery is at less than 20% of its capacity and you will receive an SMS or email, depending on the configuration of your alert.
A metallic environment disturbs Sigfox radio waves and can lead to signal losses. Do not use Sensors near or surrounded by a large metal object (water bottle).
GPS Fix
When it hasn’t been working for some time, the GPS needs to know the satellite constellation. It will automatically download the ephemeris and store it in its memory to get its position faster in the next fix. The first fix can thus be longer depending on the environment. A clear environment during the first fix will improve system performance. The ephemeris is valid for about 4 hours.
GPS does not work indoors. The Sigfox network, on the other hand, will often be operational. Movement information without position indications can thus be used in the software in a transparent way for the user, thus increasing its capacities. An approximate position can also be given by radio triangulation.
Device position
Position the device preferably with the eyelet facing up and the face with the Capturs Logo facing out. Do not attach the device to the eyelet as the vibratory motion of the pendulum will affect performance. The ideal is an external backpack pocket, such as a mesh pocket that is well maintained in the indicated position. Otherwise, position the device with the face with the Capturs logo facing upwards.
Wearing the device on a person
The principle of radio waves emission applies: the less obstacles we have, i.e. the more we are facing a free field, the better the result will be.
Thus on a person, the ideal is to carry it in an external pocket of the backpack or on the belt well maintained in the right direction, following the principles of positioning explained in the previous paragraphs. Avoid places where the beacon moves in all directions, turns over, vibrates too much or undergoes a continuous pendulum movement.
The device will also work in pockets or bags, as the environment may have an influence. A metal frame or formwork will greatly degrade radio performance.
The higher the device is carried, with no obstructions around it, and is well maintained, the better the result will be.
The Model B (and A) Capturs device is not waterproof and has no IP certification, but we provide with each device a waterproof pouch that allows the device to be sheltered from water.
