Piccolo - Model STX -Vehicle Tracking Systems

• Sending GPS location every XX seconds/minutes and/or every YY mi/km or any combination between time and distance based on speed.
• Event logs such as; engine on/off, vibration alarm, door open/close are sent with a time stamp of the event and can be configured remotely to be sent with or without the exact GPS location taken at the time of the event.
• Driver identification - driver IDs’ that are authorized to drive a specific vehicle are downloaded to the unit OTA and only these drivers that have the matching Dallas Key ID are authorized to start the vehicle and the driver ID is sent to the control center database.
• CAN bus, J1939 and, J1708 data such as; fuel consumption, oil pressure, distance traveled, RPM, and much more can be sent to the control center in real time as the event occurs, or with every GPS data, or at a predetermined interval that is all OTA configurable.
• Driver behavior detection and analysis.
• Built in internal temperature sensor, temperature transmitted with every GPS data.
• One external digital temperature sensor.
• Battery saving mode - Auto switch to deep sleep mode when engine is turned off and auto wake up when switch is turned on or on tilt or vibration.
