The G6C is a rugged, vehicle-grade GPS tracker designed for fleet tracking service providers, systems integrators and enterprise customers that require reliable, Plaspy compatible real-time tracking and telematics. Combining a high-sensitivity u-blox GNSS engine and quad-band GSM/GPRS with optional UMTS/HSPA and LTE capability, the G6C delivers accurate location, driving behavior data and on-vehicle telemetry that integrates easily with Plaspy for fleet management, anti-theft protection and advanced reporting.
The device is built for large-scale deployments: compact hardware, low power consumption, wide vehicle voltage range and over-the-air device management with firmware updates. Its comprehensive I/O set and expandability let you implement ignition monitoring, fuel-level sensing, remote immobilizer control and driver identification while feeding consistent, buffered messages into Plaspy for real-time alerts, historical reports and operational analytics.
Key Highlights
- Plaspy compatible with real-time tracking and buffered telemetry uploads for reliable fleet management and dispatch.
- High-sensitivity u-blox GNSS receiver (u-blox 7) with SBAS support for accurate positioning and fast TTFF.
- Quad-band GSM/GPRS communication with optional UMTS/HSPA and LTE variants, plus multiple upload modes (TCP/UDP/SMS).
- Vehicle-grade power: 8–32 V DC input, built-in Li-Po 750 mAh backup battery and low sleep/power-save currents for extended uptime.
- Comprehensive I/O and expandability—ignition sense, analog/digital inputs, open-drain outputs, RS232 and 1-Wire—for telemetry, fuel monitoring and accessories.
- On-board motion sensor (3D accelerometer) and GSM jamming detection for anti-theft use cases and driving behavior alerts.
- Secure, scalable deployments with OTA device management and firmware updates for fleets and enterprise roll-outs.
How It Works with Plaspy
When integrated with Plaspy, the G6C streams position and telematics data over the cellular network to provide continuous, Plaspy compatible real-time tracking, alerts and historical reporting. Plaspy ingests GNSS coordinates, accelerometer events, digital/analog input states and buffered messages from the G6C, enabling unified fleet dashboards, rule-based alerts and automated workflows for operations and security teams.
- Real-time location and telemetry updates sent via GPRS/EDGE using TCP, UDP or SMS transport as configured.
- Ignition events and digital input monitoring (door/alarm, PTO signals) reported to Plaspy for status-based rules and routing.
- Analog input support enables fuel monitoring and other sensor telemetry integration into Plaspy reports and alerts.
- Remote immobilizer capability can be implemented through the open-drain outputs together with relay accessories for anti-theft response.
- Plaspy can correlate accelerometer events (harsh braking/acceleration) and geo-fence breaches with vehicle and driver data for safety and compliance reporting.
