Does the unit
come with everything I need, including software?
Yes. The price includes the GPS tracking unit, Software
with mapping and satellite imagery for the entire U.S.
and the download cable to connect the GPS unit to your
PC.
What is the difference
between the 3100-INT and the 3100-EXT and where can
I mount it?
The 3100-EXT model has an external (EXT) GPS antenna.
If you have to place the unit underneath the vehicle
and do not have enough room inside bumper you may need
the EXT version. For inside the car placement most people
get the INT. You can place the INT model in the glove
box, in the bumper, under the front or rear dash, and
even under the seat. Under the seat placement is not
really recommended but we have received numerous reports
on how well the unit works even hidden under the seat.

If the batteries go dead
before I am able to retrieve the unit, will the tracking
data be lost.
Of course not. The unit uses flash memory which does
not need a battery backup.
Are the LandAirSea 3100-INT
or 3100-EXT units waterproof?
The units are very water-resistant. However we do not
guarantee the units to be 100% waterproof. When placing
the unit on your vehicle, make sure it is not subject
to splashing water. Our warranty does not cover water
damaged units.
How many days can I expect
the 3100 unit to last without the batteries going dead?
With regular alkaline AA batteries you can expect about
36 driving hours. Therefore, if the car drives about
an hour a day, the batteries will last for over one
month. If you use Energizer Lithium batteries, the batteries
will last close to 80 driving hours (2 to 3 months).
How often does the 3100
unit record data?
The 3100 unit records a data point every second. If
you are using the AA batteries to power the unit, you
can always leave it on this default setting. Decreasing
the recording rate does not affect the battery life.
Do I need to worry about
filling up the memory of the 3100 unit?
No. The unit stores 300 hours of driving. Most likely
you will download the data and replace the batteries
before it fills up.
Does this unit work anywhere
in the U.S.?
Yes. Everywhere in all 50 states.
Does this unit work in
any other countries?
Yes. The unit will work anywhere in the world. The

for the entire world and street maps for the following
countries: USA, Canada, Andorra, Austria, Belgium, Switzerland,
Czech Republic, Germany, Denmark, Spain, Finland, France,

What is the warranty
on the 3100?
The 3100 unit comes with a full 1 year warranty.
Do I need to subscribe
to a monthly service in order to get this to work?
No. There are no monthly fees or activation fees. This
is not a real time tracking system. The real time tracking
systems are the ones that require monthly fees and contracts.
Most people prefer the LandAirSea 3100 technology for
this very reason. Remember, to find out what the driver
has been doing, you connect the GPS tracking unit to
your computer and it will give a complete history including
speeds, locations stopped, and how long they were stopped.
Can I use this system
for stolen vehicle recovery?
No. You need a real time tracking system to do that.
Real time tracking systems are more expensive and require
a monthly service fee.
Does this unit have a
motion sensor in it?
Yes. The unit turns on as soon as the vehicle starts
moving. When the vehicle is stopped for more than 4
minutes, it will go into a sleep mode to conserve battery
life.
