Delivery contents¶
The delivery includes:
- Teltonika ATC700 tracker pre-configured
- A 5-year multi-operator SIM card installed in the device and prepaid.
- Data usage on the SIM is limited to 500 MB. This amount is sufficient if the tracker is used year-round for 2–3 days per week.
- The multi-operator SIM is prepaid and activated for five years when the device has been configured for Karttahimmeli and tested by the importer before shipping. We aim to keep inventory turnover fast, so the usable period should remain very close to five full years.
- Setup instructions
Note! A wall charger (USB-C charger) is not included in delivery.
Warranty and right of return¶
Warranty and online sales return rights are different things
- 14-day right to cancel the purchase (commonly called "right to return"): You can return an unused tracker within 14 days. In this case, you are responsible for shipping costs.
- Warranty: Covers manufacturing defects and possible material defects that appear later.
The manufacturer's warranty for manufacturing defects is 2 years. The battery has a limited 6-month warranty.
Warranty is handled together with the importer, but contact Karttahimmeli first at teemu@pirkanmaanpelastuskoirat.fi to investigate the issue, possibly using remote diagnostics.
Setup¶
To connect the tracker to Karttahimmeli, a separate order is required to activate the IMEI number. Include your VAPEPA operational group or organisation in the order. Send your email order to teemu@pirkanmaanpelastuskoirat.fi

For dog use, you will additionally need some kind of mounting system. It is best to place the tracker on the dog's back with the power button facing the sky to achieve the best possible positioning accuracy and network reception. A tracker hanging from a collar works poorly.
One option, Velcro strap mounting, is presented here. ⚠️ For a dog that dives into water, extra protection may be needed.
Usage¶
-
Turn the device on by pressing the power button for 3 seconds.
- The light flashes green and then turns off. If you watch carefully, you can see the light flashing once a minute.
-
Connect the tracker to a Karttahimmeli operation.
- Enter the tracker's IMEI and your desired team ID, then press check status. After that, press connect to operation.
- See the tracker app instructions
- Note: Connecting the tracker does not yet indicate whether the tracker is actually working. By checking status again, you will see battery status and number of satellites ONLY AFTER the tracker has found satellites. For this reason, it is recommended to power it on outdoors.
Note: Check what point in time is shown. In some cases the device first sends old data and only shows the current situation after finding satellites.
-
Turning off the device
- Press the power button for 7 seconds.
- The indicator light shows red briefly and then turns off.
-
Charging
- Connect the charging cable to a USB-C charger or use a USB-C cable from another device. When the battery is full, a green light stays on. Make sure the device is not accidentally left on so the battery is not empty when you need it again.
Performance¶
With the pre-release firmware version, the tracker battery life has been tested to be at least 8 hours. Freezing temperatures shorten operating time by about one hour.
