Description

Features

  • Real-Time Tracking – High-precision GPS/GLONASS tracking device plugs into existing OBDII ports.
  • Backup Battery – Internal backup battery, if the device is removed from power it will continue to track for a period of time.
  • Critical Alerts – Unplugged/power loss alerts to notify users of device removal, tampering, unauthorized trips, or theft.
  • Driver Behavior – Speeding, harsh braking and cornering, accident and rollover detection.
  • Movement-Based Tracking – Accelerometer for adaptive and movement-based tracking.
  • Plug-and-Play – Plug and play or splitter installation options for covert install.
  • Nordic nRF9160 Modem operates on all major global LTE-M and NB-IoT bands.
  • Simultaneously uses GPS and GLONASS satellites, providing double the number of positioning satellites than standard tracking products. The result is faster acquisition and more accurate and reliable tracking.
  • Perfect for rental fleets where a hard-wired install is not desirable.
  • Affordable and reliable, with excellent performance.
  • Built-in self-resetting fuse makes installation simple and safe. Stringent automotive power “load dump” tests are conducted to ensure operation in the harshest electrical systems.
  • Applications include Vehicle and fleet tracking, Powered Asset Tracking, Electric Odometer, Anchoring and Security Assets, Scheduled Maintenance Reminders, Tax and FBT Monitoring.
  • Configure accident and rollover alerts triggered by extreme changes in velocity and orientation of vehicle or equipment. Second-by-second GPS data is saved on the device’s flash memory, with a capacity of approximately 2 hours of data. In the event of an accident, a subset of the data (60 seconds before / 10 seconds after) is uploaded to the server automatically (if configured) or can be requested manually for a detailed reconstruction of the incident.
  • The DB2’s GPS signals are boosted by a special low-noise amplifier (LNA). This allows the DB2 to operate where normal units will fail to receive GPS signal.
  • The DB1 stores weeks of records if device is out of cellular coverage. Storage capacity for over 10 days of continuous 30-second logging.
  • Plug and Play OBDII GPS Tracker.
  • Two years manufacturer’s warranty.

Installation can be managed by qualified auto electrician or Datalink Technologies.

Smarts

  • Auto-APN – Auto-APN allows the device to analyze the SIM card and select the correct APN details from a list that is pre-loaded in the device’s firmware.
  • Accident & Rollover Detection – Configure accident and rollover alerts triggered by extreme changes in velocity and orientation of vehicle or equipment. Second-by-second GPS data is saved on the device’s flash memory, with a capacity of approximately 2 hours of data. In the event of an accident, a subset of the data (60 seconds before / 10 seconds after) is uploaded to the server automatically (if configured) or can be requested manually for a detailed reconstruction of the incident.
  • Driver Safety & Behavior – Monitor speeding, harsh acceleration, braking, cornering, idling, and more to improve safety and prevent unnecessary wear on vehicles.
  • Geofence Alerts – The server can use device location to create geofences and alerts if an asset enters or leaves designated locations.
  • Preventative Maintenance – Set reminders based on distance traveled and run hours to reduce maintenance and repair costs.
  • Real-Time Tracking – Device remains continuously connected while on the move for real-time asset tracking.
  • Run Hour Monitoring – Calculate run hours and distance traveled (odometer) to understand and optimize asset utilization.
  • Tamper/Removal Detection – Critical ‘unplugged/power loss’ alerts to notify users of device removal, tampering, unauthorized trips, or theft.
  • Theft Recovery – Switch to Recovery Mode in the case of theft or loss to activate real-time tracking for asset retrieval.
