Re: Container/asset tracking device

Hi Guys,

after testing
- Wonderproud M7
- Teltonika AT1000
- Quecklink GL505
- Gosafe G626

i am totaly frustrated in finding an reliable and stable working Asset Tracker. Maybe you can recomend me one?

- Wonderproud M7: Sleep mode sucks and the Movement Sensor sometimes like to work and sometimes not. Not really stable working solution.
- Teltonika AT1000: has gps reception problems and also like to work sometimes and sometimes not. The AT1000 is not anymore available from Teltonika (maybe they understood that the device sucks).
- Quecklink GL505: From two! Testdevices we received both devices broken after one week. Documentation sucks, Support sucks (they requested us to send the first device back and does not send a new one back, i mean, seems that they are not in need of new customers).
- Gosafe G626: Firmware totaly unstable and you really need good nervs to configure the device (extremly bad documentation).

I know, there is our friends from Israel (Pointer) but their device is so expensive that our typical customer is not willing to pay for it.
So we have the nice situation that there is a huge demand but no stable working hardware i know :-(

Any ideas?

Thanks
Wolf.

Re: Container/asset tracking device

Hi Small_Gprs,

any idea how much the devices costs?
And if i understand it correct they are not already implemented in Wialon.

Do you use them? How many devices?

Thanks
Wolf.

Re: Container/asset tracking device

Re: Container/asset tracking device

Regarding Quecklink GL505.
Could be great product but :
When it sleeps every thing is ok.
When in move it has fix interval of 5min and more, not less.
The problem is that when it suppose to sleep again it keeps sending messages and the battery ends after 2-3 weeks instead 3 years.
In short words: software problems. can be fixed if Queclink will do it.

As Asset Tracker i use their GL-200 with my ext 3.6AH battery. Total of 5AH.
Works 45 days , 30 min movment time/day.
On move it gives 15sec fix interval - great for real time tracking .
Great product , well supported by Gurtam.
Best solution.

Re: Container/asset tracking device

Hi everyone, can people tell me what they are using for container trackers on the Gurtam system.  We are looking for a reliable unit. Thanks for your help.

Equipment Ruptela quite reliable. But with their tracker to monitor the containers we have not worked.

Re: Container/asset tracking device

my personal opinion is about TTU units from Calamp, most reliable battery operated here, in America, 7 Years of one day messages capable

Re: Container/asset tracking device

Calamp support seems to be shi*.
I remember that i requested some infos but never got an answer. So no device for us.

I am testing at the moment HW from Kingneed (chinese!) but since 2 months the device is in my car, on my desk, back in car and configured to send when device is moving. So movement sensor is on (which costs realy a lot of power) and battery still 50% full (after two months).
It has strong mangnets, a IPx56 case (should be ipx7 but i dont trust), a 15400 maH LiIo battery (beware of transport and shipping, DHL etc. starts to make troubles with transport of LiIon Batterys) and sample price was 134 USD or so...

But Still: really nothing perfect at the market!

Re: Container/asset tracking device

Let me build one based on the GH3000 and I will send you some photo's. I have found the GH3000 to be a good device and tested it on mine site where we went from sea level to 4500 meters and it worked very well so components arr good.

Container/asset tracking device

Re: Container/asset tracking device

Regarding Kingneed.
All models use same protocol - Nice.
Tracking is accurate and nice. Long battery time. Good case with strong magnet.
The bad:
SMS commands - No configuration utility.   with time you get used to it.
In Gurtam web you get only GPS data. no battery level or other data.
To know battery level you need to send sms command. you can get only 3 levels : High. Mid.Low   Big problem.

Regarding:
GH3000.
Works ok , short battery time. old technology.
The bad:
Hard to monitor or set it remotely , practicaly - no way. Big Problem.
GH1202  was perfect model , GH3000 is bad to my opinion.

Better USE  Queclink GL200 or GL300  .
The best Asset tracker from all aspects.
For long battery time there  is 3.7V input to connect any external battery size.

Re: Container/asset tracking device

The GH3000 can be configured using SMS commands but in an asset tracking situation you only be setting the initial configuration. Battery life is dependent upon the send fequency. If additioanl battery time is needed an external battery can be fitted and connected using the standard charging connector.

Monitoring can be done using Wialon as it is a registerd device or via sms

Re: Container/asset tracking device

Hi Concox,

if you want to spam this forum, maybe you should do it a bit more clever?

Lets check the original question: Trackpro asked for a "Container-Tracker" which implicits, that he want to track a "Container" and not a "Person".
Did you ever saw a Container from less than 10meters?
Just wondering where and how to connect your little personal tracker onto a container?
How about IP67? 96h Standby time? Other mentioned HW here in this threat can be used for many months or years without need to be recharged.
How about temperatures below 0 deg? Do you guaranty working system below -20deg?
and so on and so on....

Wolf.

P.S. here in this forum are ONLY professional integrators. If you have great products, spent some time in explaining them and do not just do stupied spam here... with spam you will just do nothing good to your company and i am sure that your boss wount like to hear that YOU are ruining HIS brand!
