SHOUT ts User’s Manual Version 1.0.1

| Introduction

The SHOUT ts is a handheld, global, two-way satellite messaging and personal

tracking device. It utilizes Iridium’s short burst data (SBD) service to provide

location information determined by a GPS receiver, two-way inbound and

outbound status, text messaging, and emergency/alert notifications. The SHOUT

ts significantly improves service reliability over existing tracking products by

allowing two-way communications and confirmation of the nature of the distress

to the first responder community. This reduces false alerts, helps identify the

nature of the emergency so that the correct assets can be deployed thereby

reducing search and rescue costs, and provides communications feedback

capability to the user to assist in rescue efforts. The SHOUT ts is 100% backward

compatible with the SHOUT and SHOUT nano. In this document, the terms SHOUT

ts and ts are used interchangeably.

The ts is designed with ultra-low power consumption electronics drawing less than

35A during sleep. With an internal 1.95 A-Hr rechargeable Li-Ion battery and

depending on the environmental conditions, it can send a position report every

ten minutes for more than ten days (more than 1,500 reports). User is

recommended to read Appendix C to learn about the impact of blocked antennas

on the number of reports. The ts is equipped with a high resolution color

touchscreen and on-screen keyboards allowing transmission of free-text, canned

messages and a combination of free-text and canned messages. The menu

options are displayed as icons for quick access. The device can periodically wake

up from sleep to send its position report to a command center. A 911 button is

used for immediate emergency/alert notifications. Data are packaged in either

standard or 256-bit AES encrypted format.

The ts is capable of sending position reports in PECOS Message Structure (PMS).

The PMS complies with the Blue Force Tracking Data Format Specification. The ts

is shipped without PMS features activated and can only be enabled by NAL

Research at the request of an authorized user. Functions related to PMS can be

found in Appendix A.

The ts offers a variety of services including:

 Normal Tracking — The ts can be programmed to automatically

wake up and send a position report at a set interval ranging from once

every minute to once a day.
