How to use a GPS locator? -- Know basic GPS locator knowledge

01. GPS locator principle

The GPS receiver device installed on the vehicle calculates the current position of the vehicle based on the satellite information received. The communication controller extracts the required position, speed and time information from the signal output from the GPS receiver, combines it with the vehicle identity and other information to form a data packet, which is then sent to the monitoring centre via the mobile operator's GPRS network. The server of the monitoring centre receives the data sent by the vehicle-mounted machine and extracts the positioning information from it, which is displayed on the electronic map of the monitoring centre according to the vehicle number and group number of each vehicle, etc. The GPS positioning immobilizer is even more powerful, combining almost all the anti-theft functions and can be accurately positioned with satellites within a 5-metre range, i.e. in front of the eyes. Its sensors have the use of wireless sensing, which is difficult to destroy.

02. What GPS locators are used for?

The biggest help of GPS locators at this stage is: car anti-theft, children anti-loss, elderly monitoring, etc.

The biggest advantage of using a GPS locator for a private car is that the family can check the safety of the driving vehicle at any time in the form of whether it is speeding, or real-time location inquiries. In addition it can also achieve private car anti-theft and loss prevention, if the vehicle is stolen can also be retrieved through the GPS locator.

03. Do GPS locators work?

• Positioning

The car anti-theft system is a network type anti-theft device, which is an active monitoring anti-theft device. It mainly relies on locking the ignition or starting to achieve the purpose of anti-theft. Use the GPS satellite positioning system to provide 24-hour uninterrupted and high-precision monitoring services for the vehicle, and present the status of the car in real time.

• Alarm

Relying on the GSM communication network, combined with the intelligent linkage anti-theft alarm of mobile phones and cars, the alarm of this type of anti-theft device is not limited by distance and covers a wide network. When the vehicle is hit maliciously, triggered by vibration, and in the state of fortification, the door is opened illegally and the vehicle is started, the mobile phone will immediately receive a vibration alarm  message.

• lock power system

The power system of the car is locked, and the car is provided with secondary lock anti-theft protection. Even if the car key is in the hands of others, it cannot be driven away. If the GPS anti-theft device is illegally disassembled, it will immediately lock the power system of the vehicle, and the car thief will have no way to drive the car away.

• Track vehicle location

After the GPS anti-theft device is illegally disassembled, it will send an alarm message, and at the same time it can also track and locate the car in real time. Using the GPS positioning function, users can quickly and accurately find the stolen vehicles.
