Advanced GPS GPRS vehicle tracker, CAN-bus interface

G4N22GPS is a flexible smart tracking device fully adaptable to various AVL applications and specific projects where time-to-market is critical.

The versatility of the platform is concentrated in a preemptive Real Time Operating System (RTOS) specially developed and optimized for tracking application. This proprietary RTOS has proved to be optimal on older GPS model and today is present in any products developed by GPS4NET.

Following the market demand for a flexible and yet powerful authentication and personnel tracking solution, GPS4NET have implemented an engine based on iButton (Dallas) ID key technology, capable of handling over 2000 ID tags.

Due to the complex nature of the CANbus acquisition, GPS4NET provides ready made decoding profiles for J1939 & FMS networks implemented by most of the vehicle producers. This profiles are programmable over GPRS, being designed to offer a balance between the relevance of the information and the resources used (memory usage, GPRS traffic costs, server load).
