Capturs GPS trackers can only be registered to one user account. If you try to add them to a second account, this message will appear. You will need to delete it from the old account before you can register it to a new one.
Then simply take it with you or fix/place it. The device must be on and with battery to send its position when it is in motion.
The Capturs OBD GPS Tracker must be connected to the vehicle’s OBD II socket and the Capturs Power GPS Tracker must be connected to the vehicle battery.
If the GPS trackers are transmitting well but no positions are being sent at the same time, this may be due to several phenomena specific to devices using satellite positioning systems.
The main losses of positions come from the signals dropping out between the GPS tracker and the satellites, thus preventing the triangulation of the position:
– From GPS fix just after departure, cold, where the GPS plotter could not see the constellation of satellites, and therefore needed about 3 minutes before starting to move to find the position and thus start to fix its position correctly.
– The outdoor environment: trees, buildings and even clouds can prevent the proper reception of data from a satellite and may cause triangulation to be prevented or accuracy to be lost.
GPS Tracker Model B:
A simple press on the central button of the tracker allows it to be switched on, if there is enough battery, and to start sending positions in real time.
To turn off the tracker, you must keep the button pressed for about 5 seconds. The leds of the tracker will have the following behaviour: after 3 seconds the blue led will light up, then by keeping pressed, the red led will light up about 2 seconds later. You can release the button when the tracker is off.
GPS Tracker Model C/C Beehive:
If the battery is inserted, the GPS tracker starts automatically. If a tab is fitted to the GPS tracker, gently pull it out and gently tighten the 4 screws (standard Model C) to close the case properly.
To turn off the GPS tracker, remove the battery.
GPS Tracker OBD:
To turn the GPS tracker on and off, simply plug and unplug it from the vehicle’s OBD II socket.
GPS Tracker Power:
To turn the GPS tracker on and off, simply plug and unplug it from the vehicle’s battery.
GPS Tracker Performance GSM:
To switch the GPS tracker on and off, simply press and hold the button on the edge for about 5 seconds.
GPS Tracker Endurance GSM/Mini:
To switch the GPS tracker on and off, open the case and press the ON/OFF switch located inside.

The Capturs software for PC and Mac is available for download on this page.
The Capturs software is essential for the configuration of your device and the export to your Capturs space of the tracks recorded via the logger.
2 – Go to “Advanced Settings” at the top right of the menu.
3 – This will allow you to update the GPS tracker if it does not already have the latest version.
To configure the “flight mode” or 3D of the GPS tracker Model B, it is necessary to have the Capturs software for PC/Mac and to connect the GPs tracker to the computer via USB cable.
The Capturs software for PC and Mac is available for download on this page.
The Capturs software is essential for the configuration of your device and the export to your Capturs space of the tracks recorded via the logger.
2 – Go to “Settings” at the top middle of the menu and you will be able to choose this parameter.
When the “flight mode” or 3D mode of the GPs tracker is deactivated, it will send previous positions of the device, allowing real-time tracking with an accuracy of about 3 minutes. And when it is activated, the GPS tracker will send its speed and altitude when sending the last known position.
The logger of the Model B GPS tracker allows the recording of positions closer than the positions sent in real time thanks to the Sigfox network.
In order to retrieve these recorded positions, it is necessary to connect the GPS tracker with the USB cable to a PC/Mac and launch the Capturs software. And thanks to the software and the computer’s internet connection, the recorded positions are retrieved and then visible on the web and mobile interface.

To find out the battery percentage of your GPS tracker, log on to the web platform or the application.
In “My Devices”:
In the left menu, “Devices” then “My Devices”, you can see the information of your GPS tracker and its battery percentage.
On the map:
Select the GPS tracker for which you want to know the information in the top blue box.
Click on the icon at the bottom right of your screen and the information will appear with the percentage of your battery.
“Low battery” alert:
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.
GPS tracker position
Position the GPS tracker preferably with the eyelet facing up and the face with the Capturs Logo facing out. Do not attach the GPS tracker 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 GPS tracker with the face with the Capturs logo facing upwards.
Wearing the GPs tracker 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 GPS tracker 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 GPS tracker is carried, with no obstructions around it, and is well maintained, the better the result will be.
The Model B (and A) Capturs GPS tracker is not waterproof and has no IP certification, but we provide with each GPS tracker a waterproof pouch that allows the GPS tracker to be sheltered from water.
The Model C Capturs, Endurance GSM, Mini and Power GPS trackers are certified IP67. They are waterproof, dustproof and weather resistant.
Please note that the Model C Beehive GPS tracker is not waterproof, unlike the standard Model C.
The GPS tracker Capturs Performance GSM is IPX5 certified. It is protected against water splashes from all directions.
