1 About the Antares SB
TM
The Antares SB
TM
is a vehicle tracking and controlling device designed
to interact remotely with Automated Vehicle Location (AVL) systems
or end-users by using the GSM/GPRS cellular network as commu-
nication media. The Antares unit is installed on a vehicle whose
geographical position and/or state is desired to be remotely moni-
tored/controlled.
The geographical position is taken from the unit’s built-in GPS re-
ceiver which gives information such as position, velocity, heading,
time-date, acceleration, altitude. The vehicle’s state may be moni-
tored and/or controlled by using the unit’s discrete inputs-outputs,
analog-to-digital converter, audio support and its RS-232 serial port.
The last one useful to communicate with expanding accessories such
as PDAs or MDTs
