FAQ’s:

How Does it Work?
The LiveTrack Nomad uses GPS satellites to determine the exact location of the tracker and then uses the mobile phone network to transfer that location data directly to your smartphone. Using the free iCar App, your Android phone or iPhone will allow you to see where the tracker is located. You can also view where the tracker has been on previous days using the Location History feature. You can set up a Geofence or virtual boundary so that you will be alerted if the tracker goes out of that boundary. When you park your car or boat you can also activate the Parking Monitor and, you will receive an alert on your phone as soon as your tracker starts moving! You can add an unlimited number of trackers to your phone app, so you rest assured knowing all of your vehicles/toys are accounted for.

You can even share your tracker’s location with others so multiple people will know where the tracker is located at anytime. This can only be done by sharing your tracker’s unique number and password, safeguarding you from anyone else being able to track it. People who you have given permission to share the tracking of your car or boat or bike etc can only view where the tracker is at the present time – they cannot set a Geofence or view History or turn on your Parking Monitor or change any other settings. Only you as the primary owner can do that!

How Easy is it to Install?
The LiveTrack Nomad has no external GPS or GSM/mobile phone network antennas so it can be installed pretty much anywhere.

Installation is as simple as it gets, firstly you need to register your ALDI sim card at www.aldimobile.com.au/choose-activate/ (full instructions in the box), The SIM card has $5 prepaid credit on it that will generally last at least 3 months but the SIM card needs to be activated for the tracker to work.

Although you can use SIM cards from other telcos we use the ALDI Telstra SIM card as it offers 12 month expiry on data usage and has very good coverage on the Telstra network. You can add credit to your SIM card at any time by simply logging on to your new ALDI account. Even with the most frequent location updates $15 credit will usually last a full year!

If you prefer to use an alternative SIM card such as Telstra mobile, Vodafone or Optus you can replace the pre-fitted SIM card with the SIM card of your choice. In these cases you may have to set up a new APN specific to the SIM card brand you are using and be aware that these telcos may charge you monthly fees as part of their data plans and this may be more expensive than the ALDI rate.

The physical installation of the LiveTrack Nomad is a breeze, with just a simple positive (+) and negative (–) two wire connection. Connect the RED (+) wire to a constant power supply and BLACK wire to Ground. We recommend not to mount the tracker under heavy metallic objects as it can interfere with the precision of the signal – under the dash near the windscreen is an ideal location that is effective and hard to find.
Now just download the free iCAR smart phone app, setup your LiveTrack Nomad and away you go!

How Much Does it Cost to Run?
After purchasing your LiveTrack Nomad there are no ongoing subscription or management fees! So the only ongoing cost is the data usage on your SIM card and, in the case of the pre-fitted ALDI SIM card, that will usually be only about $15 per year!

Can I install the LiveTrack Nomad myself?
The LiveTrack Nomad is a very straight forward two-wire install, one to constant power, one to earth. However if you are planning a more concealed/complex install we do recommend consulting an automotive electrician.

 

 

 

 

The iCar App can be installed on any iPhone or Android smartphone.

Can I track more than one car, boat or motorbike at once?
You can track an unlimited number of vehicles through the iCar app, to add a new tracking device simply select “ADD NEW TRACKER” and follow the instructions.

Can I allow my friends or family to track my vehicle?
Yes. They just install the free iCar App on their phone and add your tracker to it. To do this you need to give them the IMEI code of your tracker and the share code you have selected and then they can instantly see where your vehicle is. For safety reasons they will only have access to your current vehicle location and can not set geofences or change any settings.

How do I know if my car has been stolen?
If you want to be alerted when your car moves without you in it then use the Parking Monitor feature. When you park your car simply press the grey “P” icon on your iCar “Current Location” screen. The icon will turn blue when activated. The tracker uses a g-sensor trigger that will detect movement and you will be alerted immediately by receiving a notification on your phone.

How do I know if my car/boat/trailer has been stolen?
If you want to be alerted when your valuable vehicle is stolen from a garage or parking spot then use the Parking Monitor feature as explained in the previous question. If the boat is moored on water and may be moving regularly then, instead of using the Parking Monitor method, simply set a Geofence or virtual boundary. If your boat leaves that designated boundary you will again be alerted immediately.

Is the tracking in “real time”?
You can choose how often you need updates from the tracker. You can choose any of the 5 options ranging from 30 seconds updates to 2 hour updates.. You can set this on your phone via the app. If the tracker is in Sleep mode (designed to save power usage) because it hasn’t moved for several minutes, the tracker will update every 2 hours just to save power.

What happens if the tracker is in an area with no 3G mobile coverage?
We have addressed many issues in developing the LiveTrack Nomad but this is one that we can do nothing about. If the tracker is in an area with no mobile phone coverage then it cannot send the data to you and will not update on your phone until it moves back into mobile phone coverage.

How can i check if my SIM activation is OK?
Call the mobile phone number you have been given by ALDI Mobile and if it rings, hangs up and you get a text giving you the current location then all is good. If it goes straight to a voice mail then there is no power to the unit or there is an issue with the SIM card activation.

What ongoing costs are involved after I have purchased my LiveTrack Nomad?
The great news is that there are virtually no added ongoing costs to monitor the tracker because it is all self-managed by you. After purchasing your LiveTrack Nomad there are no ongoing subscription or management fees. Simply set up a data alert with your Aldi Sim-card when it is running low and top up when necessary.

What if I want to use a different sim card?
We recommend using prepaid SIM cards in your LiveTrack Nomad. In fact, we supply the trackers pre-fitted with a SIM card from ALDI that operates on the Telstra mobile network. Although you can use SIM cards from other telcos we use the ALDI Telstra SIM card as it offers 12 month expiry on data usage and has great coverage Australia wide.

 

 

Telstra: telstra.internet
Optus: yesinternet
Vodafone: live.vodafone.com
Aldi: mdata.net.au
To setup the APN send the following text message to the number linked to your tracker. The following example shows you how to setup the telstra APN on your tracker.
510#0000#telstra.internet
So, the only ongoing cost is the data usage on your SIM card and, in the case of the pre-fitted ALDI SIM card, that will usually be only about $15 per year!

What if I have no reception?
The GPS receiver in the LiveTrack Nomad works much like your car’s GPS navigation or mobile phone, take it underground or under thick layers of concrete/steel and it will lose reception.
So if your car happens to be parked in a building or under a house or anywhere that can cover the tracker from the sky chances are you may not get GPS reception but you can use Location History to see where your car travelled up to the last minute before it lost the GPS location.
