VL808

The VL808 is a hardwired LTE vehicle GNSS terminal engineered for reliable fleet and vehicle tracking in demanding environments. Designed as a Plaspy compatible GPS tracker, the VL808 delivers robust real-time tracking, multi‑GNSS accuracy under 2.5 m CEP, and industrial build quality so fleets and mobile assets stay visible and secure on the Plaspy platform.

The device combines LTE Cat 1 connectivity with GSM fallback, BLE 5.0 accessory support, an onboard accelerometer for telemetry and driving‑behavior events, and a broad set of I/O for sensors and vehicle integration. With IP67 protection, a wide input voltage range and an internal backup battery, the VL808 is ideal for fleet management, anti‑theft monitoring, insurance telematics and other vehicle-based applications where dependable Plaspy integration is required.

Key Highlights

  • Plaspy compatible GPS tracker with LTE Cat 1 and GSM fallback for ubiquitous data transmission and reliable real-time tracking.
  • Multi‑GNSS positioning (GPS, BDS, GLONASS) with listed accuracy under 2.5 m CEP for precise location reporting.
  • Industrial IP67 enclosure and extended operating temperature range (–20°C to +85°C) for harsh outdoor and vehicle environments.
  • Flexible sensor integration: 1‑Wire for temperature/iButton, BLE 5.0 for accessories, analog and digital I/Os for fuel, door and ignition monitoring.
  • Onboard accelerometer supports telemetry and driving‑behavior analysis (harsh acceleration/braking/cornering, collision detection).
  • Wide vehicle power compatibility (9–90 VDC) with 270 mAh LiPo backup battery and vehicle battery protection to prevent deep discharge.
  • Offline logging capacity (3,000+ entries) maintains data continuity during network gaps and syncs to Plaspy when a connection is restored.

How It Works with Plaspy

When deployed with Plaspy, the VL808 streams location, telemetry and event data directly to the platform to enable real‑time tracking, alerts, and fleet reports. Plaspy ingests GNSS positions, accelerometer events, I/O state changes and BLE sensor data so you can monitor vehicle status, respond to alarms, and run analytics on driving behavior.

  • Real‑time location and telemetry updates: multi‑GNSS fixes (GPS/BDS/GLONASS) and position accuracy feed live maps and histories.
  • Ignition and door status: ACC/ignition detection and digital inputs provide instant event notifications and trip segmentation.
  • Fuel monitoring and voltage telemetry: analog I/Os and voltage detection (0–90 V ±0.3 V) allow Plaspy to track fuel sensor inputs and battery health.
  • Remote control and immobilizer support: digital outputs can be used for remote immobilization or accessory control via Plaspy workflows (implementation depends on vehicle wiring and configuration).
  • Bluetooth sensors and beacons: BLE 5.0 support lets Plaspy receive paired accessory data (iBeacon, BLE peripherals) for temperature monitoring, proximity or driver ID scenarios.

Use Cases

  • Fleet management and route monitoring — real‑time tracking, driver behavior telemetry and trip reporting for commercial fleets.
  • Fleet anti‑theft and immobilization — location tracking plus digital outputs that can be configured to support remote immobilizer workflows through Plaspy.
  • Fuel and battery monitoring — analog inputs and wide voltage detection enable integration with fuel sensors and vehicle battery protection systems.
  • BLE sensors for temperature or proximity — pair BLE peripherals or beacons for refrigerated cargo monitoring, driver ID or proximity alerts.
  • Insurance telematics and motorcycle tracking — compact form factor, accelerometer-based events and multi‑GNSS accuracy for usage‑based insurance and small vehicle installations.

Why Choose This Tracker with Plaspy

The VL808 combines rugged hardware and flexible I/O with the real‑time visibility and rule‑based workflows available in Plaspy. Its multi‑GNSS accuracy, LTE/GSM connectivity and offline logging keep vehicles on the map and data flowing even in challenging conditions. Fleet operators gain actionable telemetry — ignition, accelerometer events, voltage and BLE sensor inputs — that feed Plaspy alerts, reports and integrations for streamlined fleet management, anti‑theft response and operational analytics.

Choosing the VL808 as a Plaspy compatible GPS tracker delivers a practical balance of durability, connectivity and extensibility. It supports a broad set of vehicle power systems, offers the interfaces needed for fuel monitoring and immobilizer control, and gives fleet managers the immediate, reliable insights they need to protect assets, reduce downtime and improve driver safety.
