To begin using SPOT TRACE, we recommend you spend a few minutes reading through this User Guide, then visit FindMeSPOT.com to select a service plan and activate your SPOT device.

Mount the unit with logo pointed toward the sky. It can be mounted beneath fiberglass, fabric, or glass, but metal obstructions should be avoided

Keep SPOT TRACE at least 12 inches away from GPS devices, as it can interfere with the signal reception of your SPOT TRACE

Activate your SPOT TRACE before mounting or placing on an asset by visitingFindMeSPOT.com/Activate

GPS PERFORMANCESPOT TRACE uses an advanced GPS chipset with extremely high sensitivity to give you maximum performance. While the SPOT TRACE message transmitter is also very high quality, there may be times when the device will have a GPS signal, but the message won’t be able to reach the satellites due to environmental blockage. Make sure that your SPOT TRACE is mounted with the logo pointed toward the sky at all times and remember, reception can be inhibited due to hills, buildings and metal obstructions.
