Introduction
There are two versions of the GPS-207. One (CES P/N GPS-207) is designed for monitoring the position
of non-powered mobile and fixed assets. The other (CES P/N GPS-207DC) is designed for monitoring the
position of sometimes-powered mobile and fixed assets.
GPS-207: There is no need for an external power source or antenna. This device is optimized
for assets that are fixed or move infrequently. This device is programmed with the GPS-207S software.
GPS-207DC: There is no need for an external power source or antenna but the device comes with a DC
cable that can be attached to an external power source if it is available. The GPS-207DC features a non-
charging power option for those applications that may move and need more frequent reporting while
powered and/or mobile. The GPS-207DC is programmed with the GPS207S_ExPwr software.
Note:
All information that follows applies to both versions of the GPS-207 unless specifically stated
otherwise.
This GPS-207 is a water resistant device (IP-67 rating). The UP-67 rating indicates that the GPS-207 is
protected against high pressure jets of water and dust. The GPS-207 is not designed for underwater use.
The GPS-207 can operate for up to three years or more of operation (configuration dependent).
GPS data is made available on-board the GPS-207 for transmission to FleetLinc
(CES web based
subscriber fleet management service).
The GPS-207 can also be licensed for use with POWER-trak™ PC/Server software. Please contact CES
for further direction with this.

About the GPS-207
The GPS-207 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-
207 to simultaneously act as a stand alone GPS reporting device and wireless data retrieval unit. The
GPS-207 provides a flexible AVL solution. The GPS-207 is designed to work as a stand-alone device.
There is no need for an external antenna. The GPS-207 requires no external power connections whereas
the GPS-207DC can optionally be connected to an external power source.
