Choosing the right GPS Tracking Device

Choosing the right GPS Tracking Device

There are numerous tracking devices with varying specifications & configurations on the market that choosing the right product suitable for your needs makes a daunting task.

Like everything else, some individuals make their decision based on the price of the device whilst others base theirs on the specifications, quality of the components and features.

Acquiring the right device is about the most important decision you will make if you're planning on implementing a GPS vehicle tracking system.
Making the right choice the first time is imperative as changing your mind at a later stage tends to be costly and expensive
Listed below is a list that we have compiled to guide and assist you in making "the" decision.

Most tracking devices offers the following basic features:

  • Location of vehicle
  • Vehicle speed (GPS based)
  • Ability to disable/enable engine remotely
  • Ability to monitor the vehicles start & stop events

In addition to these features, some tracking devices provide extra features and more accurate data, depending on your requirements, some of these advanced features may or may not be required for your needs such as:

  • The actual speed that your vehicle is travelling as displayed on your odometer in the dash board
  • The actual fuel level and fuel tank content of the vehicle
  • The actual fuel activities of the fuel tank such as a gradual or sudden decrease of the fuel or when it's been filled up
  • The coolant (water) level & temperature
  • The engine oil level/pressure of the vehicle
  • The current battery state that's if it is fully charged or approaching the end of its life
  • The RPM & engine temperature
  • Engine load, Axle weight that is if the vehicle is been over loaded or not
  • Temperature monitor for refrigerated trucks/vans
  • Braking G-force, brake pressure (excessive braking), brake & throttle position
  • Air filter/turbo pressure, Oxygen to fuel ratio

And many more detailed engine information

  • Engine malfunction error (DTC) codes
  • Remote vehicle diagnostic info sent together along your GPS data

In summary all the info you see on your dash board plus many more additional data sent to you every 5 seconds or your choice of update interval.

Backup Battery

Backup battery is measured in mA, the higher this number the number the better but at the minimum you should be expecting 850mA. Backup battery becomes very important when there is a power failure such as when the vehicles battery is disconnected or when the tracking device is disconnected from the vehicles power supply.

Memory

Vehicles working in remote areas such heavy equipment ( Caterpilar, excavators, bulldozers ) where GSM / GPRS signals are lost ( out of coverage area ), the events are stored in memory, when signal is restored the events are then transmitted. Memory is measured in MB or MiB, the higher the number the better, as a guide 1mb = 5 - 6 days. GSM signal failure can affect any vehicle that moves into a GSM black spot or limited coverage area.

GSM GPS Anti Jamming

All GSM enabled devices are susceptible to be jammed, tracking devices included, some are able to detect and act on these signals whereas others are not so clever. When these rogue signals are detected, these devices react differently, some will quickly notify you or perform a pre-configured function. Some tracking devices switch between the different frequencies available, some will, after exhausting all the existing frequencies, shuts down (immobilise) the vehicles engine just as you would, when the vehicle is moved or taken unlawfully.

can you spot the similarities between these gadgets?
supraTrack services supraTrack services supraTrack services supraTrack services
they are all GSM Jammers designed to block out GSM signals

With the less sophisticated models, thier GSM signals are just jammed making the device think it's out of coverage area or "No Service" thereby rendering the device ineffective to send and recieve data and commands. If your vehicle happens to be using one of these models then it will become impossible to track or send any command to it.

With the exception of the Law Enforcement Agencies, the use of these jamming devices can be illegal and against the law, so is taking someone's vehicle unlawfully or without permission. Remember these devices can be as small as the size of your mobile/cell phone but cost a fraction of it and as the images above shows, it's quite difficult to spot.
The use of these devices is in widespread use than you may think, many office buildings, boardrooms, hospital & churches employ this technology to reduce the distraction caused by the ringing of mobile/cell phones, often these phones will display "no service"

The more sophiscated we get to protect our vehicles and assets, the more sophiscated the bad guys also gets. Not too long ago vehicles were not fitted with central locking, alarms and immoblisers but these days every vehicle is fitted with one just to be ahead of those that want to deprive us of our valuable vehicles and assets

If you're considering investing in a GPS Vehicle Tracking device for the purpose of vehicle security, then an Anti-Jamming feature should not be overlooked

Products

Organization that offer tracking devices claim to offer an all-round functionality that is a one size fits all approach. This claim to some extent can be legitimate but what is actually happening is in fact, these are basic general purpose hardware (devices) that relies on software manipulation to meet or achieve most of the published or advertised features. supratrack Price Match promise in ghanaAn example is the claim made by organization that offer tracking devices, to report on the vehicle speed but what they are actually reporting is the time taken to travel between 2 points or coordinates, these figures are computed and the result is an estimated GPS speed, the same can be said about the odometer (mileage) readings and other decision making data

Other devices have specific hardware that can read and report the actual data as recorded by the vehicles own on-board computer

At SupraTrack we deliver on our claims, Our devices feature specific hardware components customised for specific applications
An example of this is an effective Fleet Management System (FMS) cannot be accomplished without fuel monitoring, so the devices in our Fleet Management products range are equipped with specific hardware components capable of communicating and reading reliable data such as fuel levels, rate of fuel consumption and indeed the FMS data as outlined in the FMS protocol and framework.
Similarlry our Track & Recover products which are aimed at high value vehicles that are more susceptible to be stolen are GSM/GPS Anti-Jamming equipped making them fool-proof and resilient.

To help simplify the process of choosing the right product for your application, we have categorised our devices into the various services offerings.
We are always on hand to offer further assistance and guidance

Fleet Management

Fuel is one of the major costs facing Fleet operators on daily basis so we believe a device been passed on as Fleet Management capable will not be complete if it doesn't offer some kind of Fuel monitoring.

All our Fleet Management devices are equipped with Roaming profiles, vehicle main Battery voltage level, Fuel Level monitoring for both internal & external fuel sensors

It should be noted that our devices can only read but cannot write to the ECU of the Vehicle, simply put, if there is a fault indicator or code such as the "check engine", our device will not be able to reset it. All it does is reading the data and presenting it to you for the appropriate measures to be taken to fix the problem.

* Please note that some of these devices may also be listed under the Remote Engine Management Devices

Overview

The STU1 Advanced Vehicle Locator is a device that integrates multiple applications of GPS (Global Position System), GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication) and GIS (Geographic Information Systems) with each other.

Designed with the latest GPS technology, the STU1 used in combination with our STCAN Bridge delivers positioning and real-time Engine Management data by GSM wireless transmission to our control centre, which is then presented to our users for analysis and the applications of vehicle transport management, anti-theft, security and tracking.

On it's own, the tracker transmits wireless signals such as location, connected peripherals and vehicle control data to our servers. The on-board GPS receiver provides users with location data such as speed, direction, mileage and altitude. When used with our STCAN Bridge add-on accessory, it transmits all the above and Engine Diagnostics data such as RPM, MAF, Engine Temperature, Throttle position, Diagnostics Fault Codes etc. It uses its on-board GSM/GPRS module to accomplish wireless transmission

The on-board micro-controller can probe location and command data at regular intervals (Roaming) derive actions from location, peripheral and control data and executing such actions. Example when GSM jamming is detected the STU1 can execute predefined actions such as immobilise the engine, turn on the hazard warning lights etc. or send alerts/audible warning when engine temperature exceeds a predefined threshold

Peripheral data indicates the status of various peripherals connected to and/or controlled by the device. The peripherals include, but not limited to, door locks/unlock, starter interrupt, ignition, battery level, fuel level, engine and panic button

The firmware in the device applies intelligent filtering to overcome coverage limitations for both GPS and GSM/GPRS networks however in the extreme cases where network coverage is poor or inadequate, it will keep recording and store up to 150,000 GPS data logs using its 8MB on-board memory

Motion sensors control the status of the device, whether in sleep, idle or fully-powered mode, and thereby controls the amount of current consumed by the device

Backup battery and tamper sensing GPS Antennas primarily indicate the loss of Main Power and the interruption of GPS antenna connectivity

The device supports both Command over-the-air (COTA) and Firmware over-the-air (FOTA) upgrade to deliver additional functionality without physically touching the device once installed.

Overview

The STU1Lite Advanced Vehicle Locator is a cut down variant of our popular STU1 tracking device. With similar functionality as its bigger brother the STU1, the STU1Lite integrates multiple applications of GPS (Global Position System), GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication) and GIS (Geographic Information Systems) with each other.

Designed with the latest GPS technology, the STU1Lite used in combination with our STCAN Bridge delivers positioning and real-time Engine Management data by GSM wireless transmission to our control centre, which is then presented to our users for analysis and the applications of vehicle transport management, anti-theft, security and tracking.

On it's own, the tracker transmits wireless signals such as location, connected peripherals and vehicle control data to our servers. The on-board GPS receiver provides users with location data such as speed, direction, mileage and altitude. When used with our STCAN Bridge add-on accessory, it transmits all the above and Engine Diagnostics data such as RPM, MAF, Engine Temperature, Throttle position, Diagnostics Fault Codes etc. It uses its on-board GSM/GPRS module to accomplish wireless transmission

The on-board micro-controller can probe location and command data at regular intervals (Roaming) derive actions from location, peripheral and control data and executing such actions. Example when GSM jamming is detected the STU1Lite can execute predefined actions such as immobilise the engine, turn on the hazard warning lights etc. or send alerts/audible warning when engine temperature exceeds a predefined threshold

Peripheral data indicates the status of various peripherals connected to and/or controlled by the device. The peripherals include, but not limited to, door locks/unlock, starter interrupt, ignition, battery level, fuel level, engine and panic button

The firmware in the device applies intelligent filtering to overcome coverage limitations for both GPS and GSM/GPRS networks however in the extreme cases where network coverage is poor or inadequate, it will keep recording and store up to 120,000 GPS data logs using its 8MB on-board memory

Motion sensors control the status of the device, whether in sleep, idle or fully-powered mode, and thereby controls the amount of current consumed by the device

Backup battery and tamper sensing GPS Antennas primarily indicate the loss of Main Power and the interruption of GPS antenna connectivity

Remote Engine Management

Our flagship Service, Remote Engine Management, is complemented by well-tested & industrial strength devices.
They act as an early warning system and are available in 2 forms that is

  • all in one hardware
  • advanced GPS Vehicle Tracking device with built in CAN interpreter
  • add-on accessory
  • a separate CAN interpreter as an accessory tool to our Advanced GPS Vehicle Tracking device

In each case, they provide similar data but of course dependant on vehicle type, make, model and year of production

* Please note that some of these devices may also be listed under the fleet management Devices

  • Cars & Light Trucks
  • Older Heavy Duty Trucks & Older Buses
  • Newer Heavy Duty Trucks & Newer Buses

Most cars and light trucks manufactured after the mid 1990's are equipped with the new OBDII (On-Board Diagnostics 2). This is in accordance of a set of standards laid out by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) and International Standardization Organization (ISO). It described among others, the interchange of digital information between a Vehicle's ECU and a diagnostic scan tool.

OBDII, through the years have got more sophisticated and reliable that at present, it provides almost complete engine control and also monitors parts of the chassis, body and accessory devices, as well as the diagnostic control network of the car.

Our Engine Management products range comply with these standards and work with all OBDII compliant vehicles by connecting to the standard SAE J1962 diagnostic connector of the car to communicate via one of the standard OBDII communication protocols.

It should be noted that our devices can only read but cannot write to the ECU of the car, simply put, if there is a fault indicator or code such as the "check engine", our device will not be able to reset it. All it does is reading the data and presenting it to you for the appropriate measures to be taken to fix the problem.

From its inception in 1986 defined by the SAE and TMC, the SAE J1708's main purpose was to address the transmission of electronic signals and information among truck and bus components (i.e. Electronic Control Units or ECUs) to be used for an onboard network.

It was developed for use in the heavy duty truck market and began emerging in heavy trucks in the mid 1990's. The SAE sought to establish this standard across all brands of heavy duty trucks in order to avoid the discrepant and proprietary protocols adopted by the manufacturers of cars and light duty vehicles.

The J1708 is now outdated and is currently phased out of production and has been replaced by J1939. Heavy Duty trucks manufactured after 2005 now use the SAE J1939 protocol, having said that they are still available and widely used in older heavy duty trucks and buses

It should be noted that our devices can only read but cannot write to the ECU of these Trucks & Busses, simply put, if there is a fault indicator or Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) our device will not be able to reset it. All it does is reading & processing the data and presenting it to you for the appropriate measures to be taken to fix the problem.

Probably the most beautiful Advanced Vehicle Locator (AVL) ever produced, the STA1CAN matches its looks with functionality, build quality and reliability.

An all in one device, it has a built-in CAN chipset making it capable of reading and processing J1939 data. Meaning that the STA1CAN is designed to compliment the Fleet Management and Remote Engine Management service.

The onboard GPS receiver provides users with location data including speed, direction, mileage and altitude whilst the onboard J1939 chipset provides vehicle control data. The accumulated data is stored in memory and then forwarded on to our control centre using its onboard GSM/GPRS module wireless transmission.

A microcontroller can probe location and command data at regular intervals, derive actions from location, peripheral and control data, and execute such actions

Peripheral data indicates the status of various peripherals its connected to and controlled by the unit. Peripherals include, but not limited to, door locks/un-locks, starter interrupt, ignition, battery, engine and panic button.

Firmware on the device applies intelligent filtering to overcome coverage limitations for both GPS and GSM/GPRS networks

Motion sensor can control the status of the unit, no matter in sleep, idle or full power mode and thereby control the amount of current consumed by the unit.

Backup battery and tamper sensing GPS Antennas primarily indicates loss of Main Power and interruption of GPS antenna connectivity The device supports Over-the-air firmware upgrade to deliver additional functionality without physically touching the device once installed.
