Common sense of wireless GPS tracker

How to install the wireless GPS tracker

1. First, drive the vehicle to a place where there is no signal shielding or signal interference. Avoid the inability of timely positioning or positioning failure due to signal shielding and interference during equipment testing, and the equipment cannot upload positioning information. In order to solve this kind of problem, it can only be repositioned by activating the secondary device again.

2. According to the size of the equipment, first refer to the volume of the equipment to find a suitable installation location. The location requirements: good concealment, not easy to be found, no interference, no humidity, no high temperature.

3. After finding a suitable location, carefully remove the external plastic parts/plastic shields to ensure that the plastic parts/plastic shields will not be scratched, damaged or defaced during disassembly.

4. Use a small "cross, flat-blade" screwdriver to disassemble the wireless device, insert the unlimited data card into the device to activate the device, and then confirm whether to upload valid positioning information to the monitoring platform. If the equipment is working normally and the signal positioning is normal, confirm that the equipment is normal and ready for use.

5. Since the wireless device is an independent device, there is no high requirement for the installation location. The device can be placed in any hidden position in the car to ensure that it is not easily found.

6. After completing the equipment installation, please carefully check the wiring status and installation location of the installed equipment, and confirm again.

7. After completing the equipment installation, please carefully check whether there are any personal belongings and installation tools left in the car.

Precautions

For used cars/used cars, the common fault is that the battery is out of charge. It is likely that the battery is out of charge due to long-term testing and power-on (key door) during the installation process, which may be caused by the battery's age. The battery life is reduced.

Considerations for the location of wireless GPS trackers

The installation location is a work that requires a bit of creativity, because it requires you to be familiar with the structure of the car, and at the same time, you need to be able to conceal the location of the installation. What I can only give is a reference point, in the actual installation , The master also has to lay out the structure of the car in combination with himself.

Generally, the location where the wireless GPS tracker is installed, the exit under the windshield, next to the rear taillight, and the roof of the car, these are the places where the signal is strongest.

So for concealment, some parts are installed at the bottom of the car. When installing the bottom, the GPS signal encounters a certain resistance, especially now many installations are directly installed at the bottom to surround the iron. This wrong method of installation, wireless The GPS tracker installation must not surround the signal transmission with the iron side. Although GPS can transmit from left to right, the signal is the strongest towards the sky, because the satellite positioning is towards the sky.

The installation positions are: 4 doors, seats, air outlets under the windshield, rear tail box lights and other positions.

The chassis can be considered and tested before installation.

1. Cannot install location

The engine compartment cannot be installed, and the temperature is too high.

At the bottom of the seat, please pay attention to the signal transmission. Part of the installation will cause the signal to be transmitted. Please ask an experienced installer for the installation.

Can't install next to car tire

2. Position the strongest point

In order to achieve the installation and GPS signal.

Please choose the installation location where the signal is transmitted, without metal shielding.

Generally, under the dashboard, next to the four doors are the best installation points.

3. Check before installation

Because the wireless GPS tracker is not wired, please check the installation environment before installation, whether the installation is in place, whether the installation is seamless, check the display of the installation platform during installation, and whether it shows that it has been removed.

There are many options for the installation location, but remember whether the installation is concealed and the signal transmission is blocked, so as to avoid the installation of the GPS cannot be online.

4. Self-assembled wireless equipment elements

In particular, some customers need to pay attention to the link when assembling.

Card. Many customers did not notice the card when assembling. Card is the most important part of the device. If the card is not installed properly, the platform will not go online.

Assemble the battery and battery as carefully as possible, and the wire cannot be damaged when assembling

After the assembly is completed, check whether the platform can be launched. Generally, after the assembly is completed, it is best to test after 30 minutes.

Check carefully whether the platform is online normally.

It is recommended to assemble the equipment one day in advance and check whether the equipment is online normally the next day.

How often does the wireless GPS tracker locate

Because wireless GPS trackers cannot be connected to the power supply of the car, they cannot be like wired GPS locators. In order to save power to the greatest extent and prevent the device's battery from quickly draining, most wireless terminal products are not used for real-time positioning. So, how often does the wireless GPS tracker use positioning work? We generally set the locator to locate once a day.

The wireless GPS tracker can naturally use remote operation to change the number of daily positioning. Users can also use phone messages, APP, and PC terminals to use remote command operations. The user only needs to send the relevant setting instruction to change the number of positioning, and the device can convert the corresponding number of positioning according to the received instruction.

Under normal circumstances, in order to ensure battery power, the wireless GPS tracker is only set to four times a day at most; and for most users, if not necessary, it is set to once a day to locate. Ensure the long-term battery life of the equipment.

The wireless GPS tracker can not only change the number of positionings per day, but also remotely control multiple functions of the device. The user only needs to send the relevant operation instructions correctly.

How long can the children's wireless GPS tracker last?

Parents don’t have too much time with their children. It’s a concern for every parent to worry about their children’s safety. The children’s wireless GPS tracker captures the parents’ mentality, and the children’s wireless GPS tracker does give parents And the child brings more peace of mind. So how long can the children's wireless GPS tracker be used? The wireless locator relies heavily on the battery, especially the battery capacity. If the size is too small, the battery capacity is destined to not be too large. The battery capacity can be set to stand by for 5 years if the battery capacity is above 10000 mA. Children's wireless GPS tracker can be used for at least 3-4 years.

What are the problems with children's wireless GPS trackers

The children's wireless GPS tracker has inaccurate positioning. Having said that, in the Internet age, with advanced technology, mobile phones and computers have become people's closest friends. However, any scientific and technological achievements have two sides. Over-reliance on high technology will inevitably cause certain side effects. For example, with the rapid increase of "head-down people", cervical spondylosis, vision loss and other diseases have also emerged at the historic moment, bringing people's lives The lingering troubles. Therefore, many parents believe that “baby-finding artifacts” should not be turned into “baby-harming weapons”! As the survey found, the legendary positioning device is not so “smart”. For example, if the child in the same mall is lost, the locator still depends on it. Unable to pinpoint the location of the child. Security experts reminded that the so-called positioning watch actually has the risk of leaking privacy. If you are not careful, others can know the movements of your children well.

Children's "locators" have certain risks, including charging in water or causing an explosion. These artifacts are, in the final analysis, a kind of electronic products. For the most widely used young children, their behavioral awareness is not enough to completely safely master them.

Which is better, wired GPS tracker or wireless GPS tracker

Many people wander around when buying a car GPS location tracker because they are not sure which is better, a wired GPS tracker or a wireless GPS tracker? In fact, "everything has its pros and cons", the focus is on how to use its strengths and avoid weaknesses to choose the right one. Here is a detailed introduction to the advantages and disadvantages of wired GPS trackers and wireless GPS tracking.

1. Wired GPS location tracker

Wired GPS has more "wires" than wireless GPS, which is used to connect the vehicle's power cord, ACC line, etc. The working power of wired GPS is provided by the vehicle. Generally, there is a built-in micro battery to make the device work even after the power is cut off. 1.5 hours to 2 hours to prevent the device line from being maliciously cut and unable to continue working.

advantage:

Because the working power of the wired GPS can be provided by the vehicle, the biggest feature of the wired GPS is that it can be located in real time for 24 hours. There is no need to worry about the device suddenly running out of power and going offline. In terms of signal strength, the signal of the wired GPS device is also stronger, and the positioning accuracy is relatively good. some.

In terms of functions, the wired GPS tracker is powerful, capable of real-time positioning and tracking, remotely disconnecting fuel and electricity, monitoring fuel consumption, setting up electronic fence areas, speeding alarms, fatigue driving alarms, vibration alarms, illegal movement alarms... everything, in You can also view the vehicle's trajectory on the vehicle's monitoring platform.

Disadvantages:

Wired GPS must be connected to the power cord of the vehicle, and the installation location is not flexible enough. It can only be installed where there is a power cord. Therefore, it is easy to be found and destroyed by criminals and lose its function. In addition, the real-time positioning function of wired GPS makes the device always in signal. In receiving/sending status, criminals can use GPRS signal jammers/detectors to interfere with the working status of the equipment or find the installation location of the equipment.

Applicable vehicle type:

Enterprise fleet, bus passenger transportation, tracking investigation, valuable logistics transportation, cargo tracking, vehicle leasing, car loan management, private car and other related industries.

2. Wireless GPS location tracker

The wireless GPS tracker means that the entire device has no external wiring, so it cannot obtain an external power source. The working period of the device is limited by the built-in power source. The battery life of the wireless GPS tracker is determined by the positioning frequency you set. The higher the positioning frequency, the shorter the battery life. Therefore, the wireless GPS tracker is generally an ultra-long standby type, which can be used directly for 3-4 years without changing the battery or charging.

advantage:

The positioning time of the wireless GPS tracker is controllable, and the device enters the dormant state immediately after the signal transmission ends. Flexible adjustment can largely avoid the interference of the GPRS signal jammer and the induction of the signal detector, and further improve the anti-dismantling of the device.

The wireless GPS tracker is free of installation. Because there is no wiring, the installation of the wireless GPS tracker does not need to be restricted by the vehicle line. It can be placed in any position of the vehicle with the help of strong magnets and Velcro (pay attention to the signal strength), and it has excellent concealment. , It is difficult to find out except the owner of the car, and it has good anti-theft.

Disadvantages:

Compared with the wired GPS tracker, the wireless GPS tracker has a single function and cannot be located in real time. The location information displayed by the wireless device is the location information of the last location, not the current location information, so unless the car is stolen or other Only open real-time positioning in emergency situations.

Applicable vehicle type:

Vehicle leasing, car loan management, private car, tracking and investigation, valuable logistics transportation, bus passenger transportation, cargo tracking and other industries.

to sum up:

If you do not consider the battery issue, wired GPS is better than wireless GPS, but it is not absolute. In some specific vehicles and scenarios, the purchaser should choose a GPS device suitable for his vehicle based on its advantages and disadvantages, so as to get twice the result with half the effort. Function, if necessary, it is recommended that you can install both wired and wireless GPS devices in one vehicle, double guarantee.
