How It Works with ALTAGAMA GPS
When deployed with ALTAGAMA GPS, the MT08B sends location and telemetry via SMS or GPRS to ALTAGAMA GPS’s servers where the data is processed for live tracking, alerts and historical reports. ALTAGAMA GPS displays position, motion and I/O events on maps and dashboards, enabling fleet managers and vehicle owners to act quickly on theft alerts, overspeed events, and power-cut notifications. Configuration is handled through the device’s command set and the vendor’s tracking platform; ALTAGAMA GPS receives standard location and status messages for immediate use.
- Real-time location and telemetry updates: latitude/longitude, speed, timestamp and satellite status delivered to ALTAGAMA GPS.
- Motion and security alerts: geo-fence breach, over-speed and motion-detected notifications sent in real time.
- Power-cut and backup battery reporting: mains/power loss events and backup battery status reported to ALTAGAMA GPS for anti-theft monitoring.
- Ignition/engine and I/O events: two inputs and one output convey engine/door/fuel sensor status and accept remote immobilizer commands.
- SOS and two-way listen-in: emergency SOS signaling and voice monitoring requests can be logged and acted on within ALTAGAMA GPS.
