1 SMART ® ACTIVE TRACKING System Overview Pro Tech’s Wearable Miniature Tracking Device (WMTD) utilizes GPS satellites to establish an offender’s location by utilizing the cellular network to transmit the data. Alert Button Bracket Serial Number Charging Port WMTD Communication and GPS Point Storage • The standard WMTD call-in interval is once every hour while in compliance • The WMTD will call Pro Tech as soon as a violation occurs, if a Contact is selected • If the WMTD is not able to make a call because of poor cellular coverage, it will continue trying to call in until it is successful • The WMTD collects a GPS point every minute. If a Geographic Rule is in violation, the WMTD will collect a GPS point every 15 seconds. 2 WMTD Indicator LEDs There are three LEDs on the top of the WMTD, identified as Power, GPS, and Zone. The three LEDs work separately and provide the offender with information. It is possible for any LED to be flashing Green or Red and it is acceptable for the LEDs to be off. The WMTD will vibrate to provide an indication that the offender must look at the LEDs. The LEDs function as follows: PWR Zone GPS PWR LED • This LED indicates the condition of the WMTD battery. o LED off and WMTD deactivated: Acts as a battery indicator during the activation process when the Alert Button is pressed o LED off and WMTD activated: The WMTD is in power save mode o LED blinking Green: The WMTD is either activated or in the process of being activated. The battery does not need to be charged o LED blinking Red: The WMTD is activated and the battery requires charging • When the WMTD is connected to the charger, this LED will be solid (not flashing) Green or Red. o LED Red: The WMTD is not fully charged and should not be disconnected from the charger o LED Green: The WMTD battery has been completely charged and the charger may be disconnected GPS LED • LED off: In normal condition • LED flashing Green: It will flash in unison with the flashing “ZONE” LED during activation • LED flashing Red: Indicates a Motion No GPS warning or violation ZONE LED • LED off: In normal conditions • LED flashing Green: It will flash in unison with the flashing“GPS” LED during activation • LED flashing Red: Indicates an Inclusion or an Exclusion Zone warning or violation 3 Rule Definitions Hardware Rules WMTD Battery • The battery is getting low and the device needs to be charged. The device must be charged for a minimum of two hours daily (the hours do not have to be consecutive). When the battery needs to be charged, the device will vibrate three times consecutively and then once every ten minutes until connected to the charger. During this time, the Power LED will blink Red. Motion No GPS • Occurs when the WMTD has accumulated 10 minutes of motion in a 60 minute period without receiving a signal from the GPS satellites. The device will vibrate three times consecutively and once every ten minutes until the violation has cleared by acquiring GPS. During this time, the GPS LED will blink Red. WMTD Strap • The strap has been compromised or removed from the WMTD. There will not be any notifications to the offender that this has occurred, unless the officer selects the Notify Offender with Vibrate option on this rule. WMTD Alert Button Pressed • When pressed, this button sends an alert to the contact. If the offender presses and holds the button for one second, a single vibration will occur. This will also send out a notification to the contact(s) specified on the rule. WMTD Unable to Connect • It has been over 2 ½ hours since the WMTD has contacted Pro Tech. This is normally due to poor cellular coverage in the area. The offender is not notified of the Unable to Connect. Once the WMTD is able to use the cellular network to call in, it will report the violation and download all tracking data. WMTD Tamper • The WMTD has been compromised in some form. There will not be any notification to the offender that this has occurred, unless the officer selects the Notify Offender with Vibrate option on this rule. 4 Rule Definitions Cont. Geographic Rules Zone Rules- The offender has violated a Zone set up by the user. The device will vibrate three times consecutively and once every ten minutes while still in violation, if the Notify With Vibrate feature is checked. The Zone LED will blink in Red. • Inclusion Zone o Geographic areas like home, work, or school where the offender is confined during an officer defined schedule • Exclusion Zone o Geographic areas used to define off-limits areas to the offender 5 Activating the WMTD Equipment 1. Press and hold the Alert Button on the front of the WMTD for 3 seconds. If the “PWR” LED is Green then proceed with activation. If the “PWR” LED is Red or does not light up at all, then the WMTD will need to be charged prior to activating. 2. Push tamper plugs into the back of the brackets of the WMTD. Be sure to insert the left side first. 3. Place the pin tray on a flat surface, such as a desk, and push one end of the strap into the pin tray until it is level with the “lip” of the pin tray. Make sure that there is no gap between the end of the strap and the edge of the pin tray. 4. Insert strap with attached pin tray into one side of the WMTD until it snaps in place. 5. Place the WMTD on the offender’s leg, just below the ankle bone. 6. Wrap the strap around the offender’s leg and measure to the line shown at right so that it allows approximately ¼ inch of space between the offender’s leg and the strap to ensure comfort. 6 Activating the WMTD Equipment Cont. 7. Using the strap cutters, cut the strap according to the measurement taken in step six. Wipe off any fiber optic cable residue left on the strap after cutting has been completed. 8. Place remaining pin tray on a flat surface and insert measured end of the underneath side (the bottom) of the strap into the pin tray. 9. Place the WMTD on the offender’s leg just below the ankle bone and insert the strap with attached pin tray into t…

WMTD Operational Description Introduction The Wearable Miniature Tracking Device (WMTD) was designed to help probation and parole officers monitor offenders. It is attached to the offender using a rubber-fltb strap. It collects positional information and compares this data to rules that have been establish.d Uy probation or parole officer. These rules geographically define where an offender is allowed or. ,rot allowed to go. The WMTD also includes hardware to determine if the WMTD has been tampered with or removed. An ISM transceiver operating at 433MHz is included so that the WMTb may communicate with a base unit placed in the offender's home to verify home curfew. System Overview The WMTD utilizes GPS to establish an offender's location. Position al data(points) are stored every minute while the offender is not in violation of any rule and every I 5 seconds whenever he or she is in violation. The cellular network (GPRS) is uied to transmit the databack to servers at Pro Tech's data center located in Odessa. FL.
