To create/update and configure a SPOT device, follow these steps...
After registering your Spot and creating an account at http://www.ocens.com/snap, go to snap.ocens.com, click on the Manage Settings link in the lower left portion of the Control Settings and enter your SnapTrack username and password on the next screen to log into the Manage Settings page. Look for the blank Tracking link cell on the page.
NOTE: If you have not yet been to your Manage Settings page, you can use it to create or change your screen name, change the name you want to associate with your vessel or asset icon on the SnapTrack screen, join a group and/or paste your Spot Shared Page link.
Now log into your SPOT, Inc. account at FindMeSpot.com and create a Shared Page. This is the mechanism that allows SnapTrack to automatically acquire your device's message data.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT FOLLOW THE LINK OR PATHWAY ASSOCIATED WITH 3RD PARTY GPS FORWARDING. IT SHOULD REMAIN DISABLED.
Follow these steps to create a Shared Link to use with SnapTrack:
1) Select your Device
2) Select Share at the top of the next screen
3) Select Create a Share Page
4) On the next screen, give the page a name that describes its use such as SPOT/SnapTrack Tracking
5) Select the Device which is the target of this shared page. DON'T add multiple devices to the Share Page. Each SPOT (or Trace) device needs its own page
6) Tag all the Message Types for sharing.
7) Say Yes, Share Message Detail
8) Make the Shared Page Public. No password is necessary because you are creating a public message.
Now copy this URL and go back to SnapTrack page. Login to your Snap account and then select the Manage SNAP link. Now select the Shared Link link in the menu on the upper right of your screen, you can now enter your shared page url into the field and click the "Change Shared Page URL" button to save your settings.
To return to the SNAP tracking page just click the Tracking link in the menu.
