1. Products Introduction
GPS Tracking device mainly consists of two parts such as GPS module and GSM module.
GPS module is for getting location data from satellite, and GSM module is for transferring data to
server so that people can check the information via PC or mobile phone. Our GPS Tracking device
M528, with the best quality, stable performance and versatile functions，can be applied to various
kind of fleet management like construction trucks, rental cars, logistics vehicles and public
transportation, anti-theft system and security purpose.
2. Characteristics

2) accurate GPS positioning, dynamic positioning deviation is less than 5 m;
3) support GPRS and SMS tracking mode, adopt UDP / TCP communication protocol in GPRS
mode;
4) able to get current location immediately, and support real-time tracking (GPS data uploading
at intervals);
5) support two way voice communication via handset;
6) support two way SMS communication via Mobile and PC software;
7) support authorized tapping;
8) support protection from high level voltage;
9) support the data resend from signal dead zone;
10) support remotely disable engine;
11) 3 digital inputs for detecting the status of engine, door, air condition, etc.;
12) support illegal door-open/illegal engine-start alarm, SOS alarm, power-off alarm, over-speed
alarm, parking alarm, Geo-fence alarm, fatigue driving alarm
13) support mileage statistics;
14) support remote update
