For collar usage within Europe we provide GSM collars with VECTRONIC SIM chips
so you do not have to take care about provider administration. VECTRONIC SIM chips
are soldered in the electronic housing and highly reliable in all kinds of environmental
conditions (heat, cold, humidity, vibrations, shock).
How it works:
One message transmitted via GSM/GPRS contains 8 GPS positions per default.
Messages will be send to VECTRONIC ground-station and from there downloaded via
HTTP to GPS Plus X software. All GPS Data, irrespective of transmitting, will be stored
in the non-volatile on-board-memory. Data not transmitted via GSM can be downloaded
via UHF radio link (if available) or via USB Remote Stick after the collar has been
retrieved.
For collar usage in Africa, Asia or Nord- and South America you may choose your own
mobile phone provider and provide Micro SIM cards on your own. Here, message
transmitted via GSM contains 7 GPS positions per default.
It is recommended having
your own GSM Ground station if you using your GSM collars with your own SIM cards.
