Satellite-based Vehicle Tracking System:
The GPS500 is a satellite only unit. There is no
cellular required to use the GPS500. It is designed
to be used in a remote location or to monitor
assets. The GPS500 offers a low cost, simple to
use solution with the option of locating the unit
on demand.
Key Features Include:
 Locate on demand from more then 80%
of the globe
Reporting from every 30 minutes to
once per day
Seamless Satellite Coverage even in
oceans
Quick and simple installation
Multiple inputs to monitor PTO's, doors,
switches, etc.
Scheduled or event driven reports
Receive alerts via text or email
The GPS500 is "pingable" (15-30 minutes to receive location)
Recommended Use:
Trucking
Forestry & Logging Applications
National Parks
Rural Operations, Limited Cellular Coverage
Benefits of GPS500:
Easy to install, and very reliable, the GPS500 is a 'low-usage" device, ideal for providing location updates 1-6 times per day. Recommended use is for tracking and monitoring location of powered-assets and inventory (battery solution optional). If the battery is used, conveniently, the reporting system will show battery life with every event, this way a user can monitor battery life and plan to replace when needed.
The GPS500 provides fleet managers with a low cost, easy to install, reliable and power efficient means to keep tabs on anything that has a view of the sky. A variety of sensors are available to monitor alarms, exceptions, intrusion, temperature, G loads and much more.
The GPS500 vehicle tracking system is the ideal unit for use when two-way communication is not needed. Positive information on all assets equipped with the GPS500 ensures accurate information for use in modeling, planning, asset utilization, and possibly the most important area, customer service. Rather than only a very few individuals in an organization knowing where the assets are, GPS500 allows Sales, Marketing, Management, Customer Service, Maintenance, Shipping and Customers, to have all the appropriate information in a time-sensitive manner.
The GPS500 is one more tool that our customers have to fight inefficiency, rising costs, security concerns, incomplete information flow, and decision making without current information.
Installation:
Installation is a simple 2 wire install. The GPS500
only requires a power (9v - 32v) and ground wire to be installed.
Installs with double-sided tape (the unit's case will be damaged if pried from the tape) and by fastening unit to asset with screws using the units mounting holes. The only requirement is the unit must be able to see the sky during normal operations of the asset.
Reliability:
Reliability has been tested as the basic unit has been in use for several years in the oil and gas industry in the Colorado-Wyoming area. Cold testing and battery life have been proven in the field on these units.
The GPS500 vehicle tracking system is the ideal unit for use when two-way communication is not needed. Positive information on all assets equipped with the GPS100 ensures accurate information for use in modeling, planning, asset utilization, and possibly the most important area, customer service. Rather than only a very few individuals in an organization knowing where the assets are, GPS100 allows Sales, Marketing, Management, Customer Service, Maintenance, Shipping and Customers, to have all the appropriate information in a time-sensitive manner.
The GPS500 has capabilities to monitor up to 4 different alarms. These alarms can be used to monitor PTO's, Power disconnect, Door monitoring, etc. Utilizing an alarm cable these monitoring capabilities are available to the user.
Locates:
The GPS500 may be programmed to locate as often as the user wishes. From once a day to once every 30 minutes. The GPS500 is customizable and can be programmed to report as often as needed, even reporting at one interval when stationary, and another interval when in motion!
Battery Solution:
The GPS500 maybe installed using a battery solution if needed. The unit will send battery levels with every update and notify the user of battery levels at all times.
Other Features:
The GPS500 is small and compact. It is environmentally sealed and meets FCC standards, CE and IP56 standards. The unit offers 4 digital inputs to monitor different applications.
Reports:
There are several useful reports that help the user understand where their assets are, and where they have been, and when.
Activity Report - Time, date, location, address (when available, longitude/latitude when address not available).
Satellite Imaging & Mapping - See a "bread crumb" trail showing the movement of your asset, in 30 minute to 12 hour intervals.
Geofence Report - Print reports that show which geofences were crossed, and at what time/date. Or, automatically receive alerts via text/email at subsequent "track"/update.
Inputs Report - This will show all activity for inputs such as PTOs, pumps, generators, etc.
Settings:
There are numerous admin settings that let users organize and customize their vehicle tracking needs. Settings are an Admin privilege and can be disabled per user request.
Company Emails - This will let the user setup emails for alerts and schedulers.
Units - You can customize unit names.
Groups - Users have the ability to assign units to a group for organization.
Geofences - Provides the ability to create borders in area and be notified via email and/or cell phone once asset/vehicle enters or leaves a specified area.
Reports Scheduler - The user has the ability to receive reports via email on a scheduled basis. User defined schedule of daily, once a week or monthly is available.
