ETRAX GPS / GPRS TRACKER

Fleet management and vehicle tracking information is then madeavailable to the user over the Internet from the Etrax web server. ForVehicle Tracking companies a complete suite of Database, Middle Ware,reporting and Application Software is available.

SALIENT FIRMWARE FEATURES:
INPUTS / OUTPUTS:
4 Inputs with programmable event triggering options e.g.
o Active Low
o Active High
o Edge Trigger
4 Outputs with programmable output options e.g.
o Permanent Active LOW
o Permanent Active HIGH
o Active LOW for programmable time
o Active HIGH for programmable time
o Pulsating on programmable interval
2 Analog inputs with programmable threshold values
COMMUNICATION / CONFIGURATION FEATURES:
3 Server Numbers for SMS sending and receiving
{Programmable}
1 hard coded Master Server Number for guaranteed
communication in field in case of wrong numbers programmed,
data corruption or any other unforeseen reason
Reset GPS, GSM and/or MCU remotely via server command
3 Server IP addresses supported
2 Modes of connection supported, TCP and; One selectable at a
time.
TCP delivers packets reliably while UDP as traditionally nonconnection
oriented protocol has no reliability
Separate port settings for TCP and UDP are programmable
Support for message replication to two or all three servers.
Auto Switching to SMS mode after programmable retries for
GPRS transmission
Programmable option for avoiding using SMS media when
GPRS not available
Critical events can be prioritized over media e.g. which event is
sent on priority basis via which ever media is available (SMS or
GPRS) {Programmable}
Commands are sent via SMS
Switching from SMS to GPRS or GPRS to SMS via server
command
5 events data per SMS with Full information which includes
LONG, LAT, speed, Heading, Date, Time, Digital I/O status, 2
Analog I/O values, Backup and Main battery values, GSM Cell ID
and GSM Location Area code per event {Compression}
10 Circular Geo-fences with Black, White and Black & white
mode of operation
Status LEDs for Main Controller, GPS and GSM with defined
behaviors for identification of device operation
Low installation cost due to electrically stable inputs requiring
no relay at inputs i.e. can be directly connected to ignition wire or
any other standard source
Over Speed, Distance / Mileage, Low Backup battery, Main
battery disconnection, Self test programmable events
GSM Cell ID and Location Area code enables alternative
tracking parameters independent of GPS. It helps detecting the
GSM cell in which vehicle is located
High current outputs capable of operating more than one
automotive relays directly
Device is protected against EMI, reverse polarity and voltage up
to 40V
Option of dynamically changing Time based interval based on
ignition status. Which enables reduction of interval during ignition
on and expanding interval when vehicles ignition is off. It enables
substantial communication media cost savings
Each event has option of operating selected outputs on when
event occurs
Time based / Distance Based / Interrupt Based Modes
{Programmable}
Each event can be set critical or normal. The critical events are
transmitted on priority basis
GPS Lock and/or UNLOCK EVENT enables server to get reported
when GPS achieves lock or unlock
Multiple Location compression in one SMS {Lower operational
cost}
Parameterization over the air is possible
Self test occurs on following settings
o Time Based
o Interrupt Based
o Watch Dog Based

Etrax is a Vehicle Tracking and Fleet Management System, it utilizes a blend of GPS (Global Positioning System)
