The Linxup GPS Tracking Device part # 300-AT3-S should have came with a Quick Start Guide that outlines charging, mounting, and activation. I have sent this guide to you in addition to attaching the steps below.

If you are using this device on a vehicle, boat, trailer, or other asset that runs on a 12-volt system, then you can easily connect the integrated wiring harness for power. Just mount the device in a place that makes it simple to run the power wire to your vehicle's battery or to your vehicle's ignition. The red and white wires on this device will either connect to the positive post on your battery or to the ignition wire. The black ground wire will then need to be attached to a bare spot on your vehicle's frame that is free from any rust or paint.

If you are installing the Linxup device on a non-powered asset, then you will want to install it with a fully charged battery. Simply click on the drop pin in Google Maps to monitor how much power the battery has left. A fully charged battery will last up to 3 months. To recharge the battery, remove the GPS device and connect the attached wiring harness to a 12-volt power source. The red and white wires can connect to the positive post on a 12V battery. The black ground wire will then need to be attached to bare metal that is free from any rust or paint.

Once you install the GPS device, you'll be ready to set up your online service. Each purchase includes step-by-step instructions on how to access the Linxup website, create a login for your account, and complete the activation process. Your 1 year of service will be activated when these steps are completed. When the included 1 year of service is up, you can continue your service with Linxup by choosing a rate plan in the billing section of your online account.
