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 connected to and/or controlled by the device.
Among the best features of the CAREU UCAN 3G Vehicle Tracker, in particular, they
transmit data in ASCII mode (Intellitrac X Series compatible mode) or binary mode.
