Motorcycle Tracking Device Suggestions

Aidan Cox7 years ago

Hi,

I was going to hide an Android phone in the bike somewhere, but figured would most likely have problems over time, and not the most battery efficient.
Any way, i see you have a lot of support.

Ideally relatively small, and can be hooked to 12V (although can be converted if needed) what device will give all the features that Traccar supports?

Can anyone give me any product suggestions from experience?

Note that above suggestion is only 2G which has been phased out in some countries.

Cheers guys
Any more slightly more up to date features
Assuming i had 2G support, would this provide all the features for traccar? (alttuide, speed etc)

Similar unit here, no problems does the trick and comes pre-configured with SIM. Not sure how to switch to traccar though.

@Eva

Thanks for yourreply.
I'm interested to know, does it feedback the same information as the traccar client? IE, Altitude, Speed, and streenames & numbers?

Thanks
Aidan

Yes, as our protocol is integrated with Traccar, Traccar server will decode those data received from device.

Hi @Eva

Thank you for your response. You're selling your product right now so please, if you would mind answering a couple more questions.
I appreciate it'll probably become a lot clearer once I’ve purchased the device but could you give me a rough over view of what the connection process entails? I have tried to do a bit of research...

I'll need a sim with a Data plan or Data Allowances

Am I right in saying that once the SIM is in the tracker, and it has power, i will send a SMS to it, with a set of commands with presumably a 6 digit ID for Traccar, and the Traccar Server IP & Port? I assume within the command you have variable for the update frequency...

My server is now currently running perfectly on a public domain with an android app working for the last three weeks :)
