GENERAL QUESTIONS

Vehicle tracking system is a typical combination of the hardware and software, which enables the user to know each activity and the movement information, at any point of time, from anywhere and by any authorized users

Asset Tracking is a system of managing equipment (generally high-value assets such as generators, tools or OHVs using GPS tracking devices, barcodes or RFID tags. It is used to improve security and utilisation of a company’s assets. Assets tracked using a GPS tracking device are easiest to manage and offer a greater depth of data than barcodes and RFID tags. Barcodes and RFID tags require specialised scanning equipment and are generally used solely to track assets for accounting or storage purposes. Assets that are tracked using GPS can transmit their location using the cellular or satellite network, or a combination of the two (known as dual-mode) to make sure reporting is not interrupted when an asset moves outside the cellular network. GPS tracking devices can be self-powered (with batteries lasting up to four years depending on their reporting rate) or hard-wired into the asset’s power source. Industries that commonly use Asset Tracking include construction, farming, oil, gas and mining. Asset Tracking can be used to improve the accuracy and efficiency of maintenance by reporting their current mechanical health and status (e.g. engine hours)

A: There are many reasons you may need a GPS tracking device. Here are some of them: Locate a vehicle in case of theft Monitor the driving behavior of your teenage driver Helps you enforce a driving contract you may have with your teenage driver Know where the vehicle is and where it has been Know if and when a speed limit is violated Know if and when a geofence is breached Know if and when the vehicle is used during after hours To monitor Fuel Consumption on vehicle. To Prevent Fuel theft Trackers with Passenger counter capability can be used to count onboarding passengers and disembark.

A combination of the words telecommunications and informatics, it was the joining of these two sciences that resulted in the field of telematics

A vehicle tracking system using GPS obtain the location, speed, direction and time data made available via satellite from the Global Positioning System to the GPS receiver unit installed in a vehicle and transmits it to a central computer (Server) connected to a private GSM network or the Internet.

A: Your device will store up outgoing messages until it is connected to the GSM network. When the GSM network resumes the data will stream back to server. Nothing will miss.

A: Your device stores your location when you enter the building and once outside and moving it will start updating your location again. The same applies to tunnels.

A: If this problem takes place then please ensure the following steps- 1. There should be no nearby tall buildings or houses. 2. Antenna signal will not pass through metallic or magic type tint. 3. Vehicle should not be moving when trying to get your first fix. 4. Units should not be placed or covered behind metal objects. 5. Acquiring your first location should take only 30 seconds to 1 minute with a good GPS signal in the area. If the signal receiving process take too long, simply remove the unit’s power and re-insert it again – this re-starts the search process.

A: If the GSM network is available, your device will turn to LBS location when you enter the building , the accuracy not accurate as GPS location. Once outside and get GPS signals, it will start to upload your GPS location again. The same applies to tunnels.

Yes. You will be provided with an online account and given a personal login and password of your choice. You will also be given the website address of your GPS tracking website. Any computer with a working standard Internet browser is required to login and locate your vehicle.

A: A Geofence is a virtual perimeter on a geographic area using a location-based service, so that when the Geofencing vehicle enters or exits the area an alert is generated. The alert can contain information about the location and speed of the vehicle and may be sent to a mobile telephone or an email account.

The GPS device continues to collect and store information even if drivers are driving in an area that does not have wireless coverage. The unit then transmits this data when the vehicle comes back into the wireless coverage area.

Either vehicle location may be incorrectly reported sometimes or off by a few meters because buildings may affect the availability and quality of GPS signals, natural obstacles, weather conditions and satellite availability.

A:You can choose to set and receive the following alerts ⦁ ⦁ Speed Alert: When the vehicle speed exceeds the set speed. ⦁ Tow Alert:When the vehicle moves while the ignition is off. ⦁ Geofence Alert:When the vehicle enters or leaves a Geofenced area. ⦁ Battery Cut Alert:When the vehicle battery connection is cut. ⦁ Vibration Alert:When the vehicle is shake while the ignition is off. ⦁ Device low Battery AlertWhen device battery is low ⦁ SOS AlertFor emergency situations. ⦁ Low Power Protection Alert:When car battery voltage is low. ⦁ Power Off Alert:When the device is turned off. All these alarms can be set using our web based application, and emails are sent when the alerts are triggered.
