🔧 Setup & Activation Guide
This page helps you activate and configure your VerdantTrace device correctly.
Before starting, please confirm your device model and regional version (EU / US / Asia).
🐾 Step 1 – Insert SIM Card (if required)
For GPS tracking devices that require a SIM card:
• Ensure the SIM supports 4G LTE Cat-1 or compatible networks
• Disable SIM PIN code before inserting
• Insert SIM correctly and restart the device
If your model uses built-in CloudSIM (e.g., PetPhone), no SIM insertion is required.

If your device shows offline:
-
Confirm APN details with your mobile carrier
-
Send APN configuration via SMS (if supported)
-
Restart the device after successful configuration
APN setup instructions are also available in the Manuals section.

Search for the app name listed in your device manual.
🔗 Step 4 – Bind Device to App
• Power on the device
• Wait for GPS / network signal
• Scan QR code or enter device ID

If binding fails, ensure the device is not previously registered to another account.
🌍 Step 5 – Confirm Regional Version
