CanTrack - G183

The G183 series JOBD GPS Tracker is a compact, Plaspy compatible OBD-level tracker engineered for vehicle diagnostics and real-time telematics. Designed for passenger cars and commercial vehicles, the G183 delivers precise GNSS positioning, comprehensive diagnostic protocol support and continuous TCP/SMS reporting so fleet operators and service providers can integrate location, DTCs and vehicle status into Plaspy with minimal engineering effort.

The G183 combines robust in-vehicle connectivity with rich telemetry: mileage, fuel consumption, trip time, diagnostic trouble codes and extensive alarm reporting (speeding, harsh driving, collision, towing, low voltage, ignition on/off, dongle plug/unplug, SOS and high temperature). Its small form factor and OBD A/B interface make it ideal for scalable fleet management, anti-theft monitoring and vehicle health tracking when used with Plaspy.

Key Highlights

• Plaspy compatible OBD-level GPS tracker built for fleet management and vehicle diagnostics.
• Multi-constellation GNSS (GPS/GLONASS/QZSS/COMPASS/Galileo) with a 56-channel receiver and ~2.5 m CEP GPS accuracy.
• Supports OBDII, JOBD, J1939, J1708 and manufacturer-specific protocols (Toyota, Nissan, Mazda, Honda, Mitsubishi, Subaru, Suzuki, Daihatsu, Hino, Isuzu) for broad vehicle coverage.
• Real-time tracking and telemetry over TCP and SMS: mileage, fuel monitoring, trip time and DTC upload to Plaspy.
• Comprehensive alarm set including speeding, harsh acceleration/deceleration, sudden turns, collision detection, towing and SOS alerts.
• Compact, durable design (62 x 50 x 25 mm, ~100 g) with low sleep current for reliable fleet deployment.
• Built-in accelerometer (±16 g, 3-axis) and 8 MB flash buffering for event reconstruction and offline data storage.

How It Works with Plaspy

The G183 uploads location, diagnostic and event data over TCP or SMS so Plaspy can ingest real-time tracking and telemetry feeds. Once integrated, Plaspy dashboards and APIs can display live vehicle position, alarm events and maintenance-relevant DTCs for proactive fleet oversight.

• Real-time location and telemetry updates delivered via TCP/SMS for Plaspy ingestion and visualization.
• Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) upload and protocol-aware vehicle parameters using OBDII/JOBD/J1939/J1708 and dedicated manufacturer protocols.
• Fuel monitoring and real-time mileage reporting for fuel consumption analysis within Plaspy reports.
• Ignition on/off detection and a wide range of alarm reports (SOS, collision, tow, plug/unplug) to trigger Plaspy alerts and workflows.
• Event reconstruction using the ±16 g accelerometer and local flash buffering to ensure accurate telematics history during temporary connectivity loss.

Technical Overview

Use Cases

• Fleet management: combine real-time tracking, mileage and fuel monitoring to optimize routes and reduce operating cost with Plaspy analytics.
• Vehicle diagnostics and preventive maintenance: upload DTCs and telematics to Plaspy to prioritize repairs and reduce downtime.
• Anti-theft and safety monitoring: SOS alerts, dongle plug/unplug and towing alarms integrated into Plaspy for rapid response.
• Driver behavior and risk management: harsh acceleration/braking, sudden turns and collision detection feed into driver scorecards and coaching programs.
• Commercial vehicle telemetry: support for J1939/J1708 and multiple manufacturer protocols for heavy-duty trucks and mixed fleets.

Why Choose This Tracker with Plaspy

Choosing the G183 for Plaspy integration delivers a practical balance of diagnostics depth and real-time tracking capability. Its broad protocol support ensures compatibility across passenger and commercial vehicle makes, while GNSS multi-constellation positioning and 56-channel reception provide reliable real-time tracking and accurate telemetry. Built-in accelerometer data and event buffering improve incident reconstruction and reduce data loss during temporary network outages.

For fleet operators and integrators, the G183 reduces deployment friction: OBD A/B connectivity, compact form factor, and multiple cellular module options accommodate regional network requirements. Plaspy-compatible TCP/SMS reporting and remote debugging capabilities accelerate system integration, enabling telemetry, fuel monitoring and ignition-aware workflows to be operational quickly. Where immobilizer or Bluetooth sensors are part of a larger solution, the G183 can contribute ignition and diagnostic data to Plaspy while external modules or gateways manage those peripheral functions.
