Trace me WiFi SuperLocal

Trace me WiFi SuperLocal is similar to the original mode as it also sends messages while the object is moving and stops sending them when it’s still. While moving, it periodically sends a message (the period length is defined in the Tracing delay register) so you can trace the monitored object. No more messages are sent after a stop of movement is detected and reported. All mode-specific events are sent with up to 5 MAC pointers and the respective RSSI for very precise localization.

Trace me WiFi SuperLocal

Hex value: 0x53

Use cases: Package tracing for postal services, tracing international trucks, river transport boats, and more

Devices that support this mode: SimplePack Plus

Required sensors: Accelerometer, WiFi module

Mode-specific deltas:

Deltas are mode-specific register values different from register default values.

Register (hex)	Default (hex)	Delta (hex)	Delta information
Sleep time (0x04)	1 minute (0x41)	10 minutes (0x4A)	Sleep time prolonged

Mode-specific events (uplink messages):

For more information on what uplink messages (mode-independent events) and additional data from various sensors in the device (appended payload) can be sent regardless of mode and how to fine-tune message behavior (alerts), see Mode-independent information and events.

Hex	Event name	Alert	Event information
0xC0	Start of movement WiFi Precise	1	Accelerometer-based movement detection, sent with 5 MAC pointers and RSSI
0xC1	End of movement WiFi Precise	2	Arrival delay countdown expired, sent with 5 MAC pointers and RSSI
0xC6	Tracing tag WiFi Precise	3	Periodical event sent only while moving, sent with 5 MAC pointers and RSSI
0xFC	MAC storage readout	No	One pointer and its assigned MAC address sent

Registers relevant for this mode:

If you change the general sensitivity of the accelerometer and the magnetometer (0x11 and 0x19), the respective axis registers reset to 0 as the general settings replace them and vice versa.

Hex	Register name	Default value (hex)
0x02	Departure delay	15 seconds (0x0F)
0x03	Arrival delay	10 minutes (0x4A)
0x04	Sleep time	1 minute (0x41)
0x05	Tracing interval	10 minutes (0x4A)
0x11	Accelerometer sensitivity	7 (0x07)
0x12	Accelerometer X axis sensitivity	7 (0x07)
0x13	Accelerometer Y axis sensitivity	7 (0x07)
0x14	Accelerometer Z axis sensitivity	7 (0x07)
0x3C	Accelerometer measurement period	1 second (0x01)
0x49	Accelerometer detection delay	0 seconds (0x00)
0xFC	MAC storage eraser	No default value - After this register hex, you can send up to 7 MAC pointers (0x01-0x80) to the device and then the respective MACs will be deleted from the internal MAC storage
0xFD	MAC storage reader	No default value - After this register hex, you can send up to 7 MAC pointers (0x01-0x80) to the device, the respective MACs will be uplinked as the same number of 0xFC events

Similar modes:

Hex	Mode name	Description
0x04	Trace me	Original version of Trace me, no WiFi
0x17	Trace me WiFi	Basic WiFi-enabled version of Trace me
0x2F	Trace me WiFi Atlas	WiFi Atlas version of Trace me

Switching to mode, arming, and disarming information:

Follow the Basic Operations With SimpleHw Devices guide, where you can also find information about LED behavior, relevant Sigfox messages, and more.

Here’s what’s important for Trace me WiFi Precise messages:

• To set this mode, the downlink needs to include this mode register setting: 0153

• The uplink messages need to begin with the mode hex as the first byte: 53

• When arming the device, you should see this message: 5310

• When the device is armed, it should send you these two bytes: 5311

• If you disarm the device via the long press, you should receive this message: 5314
