Small, Cost-Effective Asset Tracker
The SmartOne C is a compact, cost-effective yet feature-rich device for tracking and monitoring assets in remote locations using the Globalstar LEO satellite network.
Designed to be easily installed on to the exterior of valuable assets, the SmartOne C is a discreet satellite-enabled tracker that can be line-powered or utilize AAA 1.5v lithium batteries for applications when a power supply is limited or unavailable.
With 12 different reporting times, interval or 24 hour operating modes and the ability to build custom schedules and alerts, the SmartOnce C is a highly adaptable asset tracker to meet a wide variety of requirements.
Feature Rich Asset Monitoring
The SmartOne C is equipped with motion sensors, GPS capability and custom configured sensors, and can provide near real-time updates or triggered alerts using cost-effective short burst messages via the Globalstar satellite network.
Asset tracking managers can continuously monitor their containers as they move between different shipping methods, such as from ships to trains to lorries. Those concerned about unauthorised movements or thefts of high value assets can set up a geofence which increases the frequency of location information when an asset moves outside of its intended range.
Equipment managers can trigger maintenance operations based on hours of operation to prevent costly machinery breakdowns. The SmartOne C can also connect to onboard sensors and switches via line inputs to send status updates, such as vehicle ignition switches or container door sensors.
