Advanced GSM/GPRS & GPS Vehicle Monitor and Tracking System
Enables Accurate, Cost Effective, Fleet Control and Management Monitor Position, Speed, Emergency Situations & Events almost Instantly Control Devices Onboard Vehicle Remotely, with SMS or GPRS Commands Optional Event Recorder Memory Module for Driving Data Logging
Extremely Compact Package
With Powerful Features
Only slightly larger than a pack of cigarettes, the VTU Max Vehicle Tracking Unit is perhaps the most intelligent Vehicle Tracking and Monitoring system available on the market, today. The feature packed VTU module can be programmed OTA (Over The Air) by an authorised command center and enables compatible fleet management software to monitor vehicles with ease and quick response speed. Included in the several benefits fleet owners can gain from using the VTU are the warning and reporting of possible deliberate speeding violations and multiple 'out of area' (Geo-Fence) crossings by the vehicle. Doors and other points could by monitored by sensors and any change of state reported immediately. Remote enabling or immobilisation of the vegicle or other key devices, could be performed by the control center.
Running cost is kept to a minimum by utilizing reliable GPRS or SMS messages. The driver has the ability to ‘call back' to base or trigger an emergency assist button, in the case of emergency or possible hijacking. This compact unit is easily mounted or concealed, and consumes less than 1W of power.
Uses GPS Satellites for Accurate Position, Heading and Speed Reports
KEY FEATURES :
Alerts messages and commands are sent via SMS or GPRS to and from the command center No messages are ‘Lost' recipients receive messages whenever in range of a GSM network Multiple recipient alerts, up to 5 SMS numbers can be programmed the be informed Almost ‘Instant' notification of monitored events 8 Inputs are available for monitoring the status of any devices or switches 8 Control outputs are standard and could be used for ‘Vehicle Immobilisation' Driver can make a ‘Voice Callback' to the command center Rapid acceleration and overturn detection and notification No mechanical or electronic maintenance required Very low ‘Running' cost, Just the cost of a 16 byte GPRS packet or an SMS Optional module can report vehicle accumulated running time and cycles Almost global coverage (with GSM roaming enabled) All messages and commands are secured by GSM encryption Over The Air Commands can be activated or cancelled by the command center OTA Almost all functions can be remotely programmed and changed OTA* Audio inputs and outputs for handsfree audio facilities NMEA output for in-car navigation display terminal
* Security mechanisms, only allow OTA programming by the command center
