Introduction

The GPS-205 is one of the smallest and most economical GPS asset tracking devices available today. It is 
a ruggedized unit, with aluminum extrusion and end caps, affording some protection for environmental
elements. This device is neither weather, dust or splash proof.

GPS and event data is made available on-board the GPS-205 for transmission to FleetLinc

(CES web 

based subscriber fleet management service).

The GPS-205 can also be licensed for use with POWER-

trak™ PC/Server software. Please contact CES 

for further direction with this.

1.1

About the GPS-205

The GPS-205 is an Automated Vehicle Locating (AVL) device that utilizes a GSM/GPRS cellular 
modem and a Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) module. Working together, these technologies allow the 
GPS-205 to simultaneously act as a stand alone GPS reporting device and wireless data retrieval unit. The 
GPS-205 provides a flexible AVL solution with two Inputs and one Output. The GPS-205 is designed to 
work as a stand-alone device in a vehicle. It requires DC power and an antenna (GPS and GSM).
