The CCTR-831 OBD-II GPS tracker delivers Plaspy compatible vehicle monitoring with plug-and-play convenience. Designed for rapid installation into any standard OBD-II port, the CCTR-831 powers from the vehicle connection and provides continuous GPS positioning and GPRS-based data upload to Plaspy or other tracking servers. This makes it ideal for fleet managers, rental operations, and individual car owners who need reliable, real-time tracking and anti-theft alerts without hardwiring.
The tracker combines a high-sensitivity GPS antenna and integrated GSM antenna with built-in motion and shock detection, a rechargeable backup battery, and SMS-based remote configuration. Because the device supports an open GPRS protocol and a lifetime free web and mobile platform (demo at www.999gps.net), the CCTR-831 integrates easily into Plaspy workflows for fleet management, telemetry, geo-fencing, overspeed alarms and history playback.
Key Highlights
- Plug-and-play OBD-II installation for fast deployment across fleets, reducing installation time and costs.
- Plaspy compatible via open GPRS protocol and web API support — enables real-time tracking and centralized fleet management.
- Continuous GPS positioning with high-sensitivity antenna for reliable location updates in urban and suburban environments.
- Built-in rechargeable backup battery plus power-down/device-removal alarm for anti-theft and tamper detection.
- Internal motion sensor and shock detection trigger immediate uploads, call or SMS alarms for timely incident response.
- Remote configuration and status checks via SMS — set server IP, APN and key parameters without physical access to the vehicle.
- Lifetime free manufacturer platform with mobile apps and multi-level account support for distributors, fleet managers and end users.
How It Works with Plaspy
The CCTR-831 uses GPS positioning for location fixes and GPRS to push those fixes to a remote tracking server. For Plaspy integration, the device’s open GPRS protocol allows Plaspy to receive standard position and alarm packets in near real-time. Plaspy can then process that data for map display, alerting, reports, and telemetry dashboards.
- Real-time location and telemetry updates via GPRS to Plaspy-compatible servers.
- Motion and shock-triggered events upload immediately so Plaspy can generate anti-theft alerts and notifications.
- Power-down and device-removal alarms are reported when the built-in backup battery activates, preserving continuity of tracking and tamper alerts.
- SMS-based remote configuration permits installers or fleet admins to set server IP and APN or query device status when network access is limited.
- Works with Plaspy features such as geo-fence alarms, overspeed notifications, history playback and multi-level account management for scalable fleet operations.

Why Choose This Tracker with Plaspy
The CCTR-831 is a cost-effective Plaspy compatible GPS tracker that prioritizes ease of deployment, continuous visibility and tamper-aware monitoring. Its OBD-II power connection eliminates hardwiring, lowering installation complexity across mixed fleets, while the internal backup battery and shock/motion alarms preserve tracking during incidents. The device’s open GPRS protocol and lifetime free platform service make it simple to integrate into Plaspy ecosystems or third-party backends, supporting multi-level account structures for distributors and fleet managers.
Whether your priority is real-time tracking, fleet management, basic telemetry or anti-theft protection, the CCTR-831 offers a reliable, plug-and-play option. For organizations that require additional telemetry such as OBD-derived fuel or ignition data, the OBD-II form factor allows the device to expose vehicle parameters where available — enabling Plaspy-based dashboards to include fuel monitoring and ignition-status workflows when supported by the vehicle’s OBD data stream. And because configuration is possible via SMS or server-side settings, fleet administrators can scale deployments with minimal on-site intervention.
