The AutoFon Omega (8.3) is a compact, Plaspy compatible GPS tracker engineered for long autonomous operation and discreet installation. Combining GPS + GLONASS navigation with 2G GPRS/SMS reporting, a built‑in accelerometer and BLE presence detection, the Omega delivers reliable position updates, motion and tilt alerts, and local ranging for owners’ smartphones — making it a strong choice for anti‑theft protection, asset recovery and continuous telemetry in distributed fleets or individual assets.
The device is optimized to work with monitoring platforms like Plaspy by sending coordinates and event data to servers or via SMS, and it supports server GPRS firmware updates and a free online search server. Its small semi‑hermetic IP54 enclosure, combined with a long‑life 3×AAA lithium battery pack, supports discreet mounting on cars, motorcycles, boats and portable equipment where uninterrupted real‑time tracking and alerting are essential.
Key Highlights
- Plaspy compatible GPS tracker for real‑time tracking via GPRS and SMS — reliable position and event delivery to monitoring servers.
- Dual GNSS support (GPS + GLONASS) and AGPS for faster fixes and improved location accuracy in urban and rural environments.
- Built‑in accelerometer for motion, impact, tilt detection and anti‑towing alerts — ideal for anti‑theft use cases.
- Bluetooth (BLE) module for owner smartphone presence detection and precise local BLE ranging.
- Long autonomous operation on 3×AAA non‑rechargeable lithium cells (1100 mAh) — up to years of standby readiness depending on reporting profile.
- Flexible reporting: continuous active mode, interval GPRS packets, SMS fallback and black box memory with retry of unsent messages.
- Discreet, semi‑hermetic IP54 enclosure and compact dimensions suitable for covert installation on vehicles and assets.
How It Works with Plaspy
When integrated with Plaspy, the AutoFon Omega (8.3) transmits location and event telemetry to your monitoring account via GPRS (preferred) or SMS (fallback). Plaspy can consume the device’s coordinates, accelerometer events, BLE presence, battery and temperature data to provide dashboards, alerts and historical route playback. Server‑side firmware update capability means you can keep device behavior current through remote GPRS updates when available.
- Real‑time location and telemetry updates via GPRS with SMS fallback for robust delivery.
- Motion, impact and tilt detection to trigger immediate alerts for unauthorized movement or tampering.
- Battery level and temperature reporting for proactive maintenance and asset condition monitoring.
- BLE presence detection and local ranging for owner proximity alerts and refined local positioning.
- Black box memory and retry logic ensure unsent packets are buffered and transmitted when connectivity is restored.

Use Cases
- Fleet management and supervision of personal and business vehicles — continuous location, life signals and parking/movement alerts for operational visibility.
- Anti‑theft protection and recovery of stolen vehicles, motorcycles, scooters or bicycles using accelerometer alerts, BLE proximity and remote audio monitoring.
- Monitoring valuable cargo and portable equipment where discreet installation and long battery life are required.
- Supervision of vulnerable people (children, elderly or sick) with SOS panic button and presence detection.
- Tracking of animals and livestock or remote assets that need long‑term autonomous telemetry in the field.
Why Choose This Tracker with Plaspy
The AutoFon Omega (8.3) pairs compact hardware with proven telemetry features to provide reliable Plaspy compatible tracking for assets that demand unobtrusive installation and long standby life. Its combination of GPS/GLONASS positioning, AGPS assistance, accelerometer‑based alerts and BLE presence detection delivers a practical toolkit for anti‑theft protection, route monitoring and situational awareness. Omega’s GPRS reporting and SMS fallback, plus black‑box buffering and server firmware updates, mean fewer missed events and simpler remote management — all key advantages for organizations scaling up real‑time tracking and fleet management without frequent onsite maintenance.
Note: Omega focuses on autonomous location, motion and local presence telemetry. In fleet setups that require integrated telemetry such as fuel monitoring, ignition state or immobilizer control, Plaspy can combine the Omega’s location stream with external sensors or vehicle telematics gateways to create a complete operational picture.
