General hardware description
The unit is equipped with a GSM modem
running on AT&T LTE Cat 1 network in the
US, and on all major European networks
(see page 40). In Europe, the tracker
makes use of automatic 2G fallback if
there is no LTE Cat 1 connectivity.
Tracker comes with a built-in SIM card
eliminating the need for separate ones,
and a custom-designed antenna with
superior reception when compared to
consumer smartphones. It also has built-
in sensors monitoring temperature and
movement. Notifications are triggered
based on configured thresholds.
The tracker has a fixed cable with an SAE
connector, which is an industry standard
on many vehicles. It can either be used
directly in connecting the tracker to
external power or used with the wiring
harness to connect the tracker directly
to a 8–30V power source.
Theft prevention
Since launching our first generation
of trackers a few years ago, we have
prevented thefts all over the world.
Whenever an asset is moved an alert
will be pushed to your devices. Tracking
can be monitored every 10 seconds with
an accuracy of 3.3 ft / 1 m. The antenna
is designed to ensure good reception
even in demanding locations.
Common misunderstandings
“If a thief finds the tracker, what’s the
point of having it installed?”
The tracker has a motion sensor. If a
thief tries to find it, the asset will move,
thus triggering a notification well before
the tracker is found. With that said,
always try to install the tracker in a well
hidden location.
“Will the device stop working if a thief
cuts the wiring harness that powers it?”
The tracker contains a sensitive motion
sensor as well as a voltage sensor. If
external power is cut, the asset was
likely moved to get access to the cable,
thus triggering an alert notification. If
the cable is cut the voltage sensor also
triggers the tracker to send an alert.
Lastly, the device is equipped with a
built-in lithium ion polymer battery with
a capacity of 1000 mAh that can last up
to one year. Rest assured your asset is
being tracked even if the power is cut.
