FAQ

Why is my port not showing up when I click “Scan Ports”?
1. Make sure you have installed the driver (see Step 1).
2. Ensure the tracker is powered on (blue LED is active).
3. Double check that you are using the official black USB Config Cable, not a third-party USB-C charging cable.
Why does connection fail? 
If the port is detected but connection fails, try powering the MT710 off and on again, and click Connect again.
Why do I get the alert “USB Device not recognized”?
If you receive an alert message when you connect the USB cable to the PC, ensure that you are using the MT710 Config cable, which is a customized cable, not a standard cable. Please note that the MT710 only works with the Config cable.
The device shows sim card error how to fix it?
If the SIM card error persists, it may be possible that the SIM card has been installed incorrectly. Therefore, first remove the SIM card and then reinsert it again, taking care to ensure that the direction of the SIM card is correct and that the chip is facing down and the notch on the SIM card is facing outwards.
How do I query the current setting?
To check the device settings, you can utilize either of the following two methods:
Send an SMS command to the device: *RCONF#1##
Send a USB command to the device: RCONF,1
