The TS-G17H is a compact, Plaspy compatible vehicle GPS tracker built for reliable, discreet real-time tracking. Designed for worldwide use, the TS-G17H combines quad-band GSM connectivity with GPRS TCP/IP reporting and the GT06 protocol to provide fleet management teams and individual owners with accurate location, telemetry and basic anti-theft tools. Its small size and wide input voltage range make it ideal as a hidden car GPS tracker or motorcycle locator.
The unit is purpose-built for practical deployments: ACC/ignition detection, a built-in GPS antenna and backup battery, and relay control for remote immobilization provide the core features fleet operators and security-conscious drivers expect. When integrated with Plaspy, the TS-G17H delivers dependable real-time tracking, overspeed and geo-fence alerts, and remote control options that simplify vehicle monitoring and theft recovery workflows.
Key Highlights
- Plaspy compatible via GT06 protocol and GPRS (TCP/IP) for seamless real-time tracking and server reporting.
- Quad-band GSM (850/900/1800/1900) ensures global cellular coverage for fleet management and remote vehicles.
- Relay control for remote immobilizer functionality — useful for anti-theft response and remote vehicle shutdown.
- Wide input voltage range (9–100V DC) and low quiescent current make it suitable for cars, trucks and motorcycles.
- Built-in GPS antenna and backup battery provide continued position reporting during power interruptions.
- Supports geo-fence and overspeed alarms for automated incident alerts and compliance monitoring.
- Compact form factor for discreet installation and hidden car GPS tracker applications.
How It Works with Plaspy
Integration with Plaspy is straightforward: the TS-G17H uses GPRS TCP/IP to report position and telemetry to a Plaspy server and implements the widely used GT06 protocol for message formatting. Once configured to point at Plaspy’s server and port, the tracker sends regular position updates, alarm events and status reports that Plaspy ingests for real-time tracking, historical playback and alerting.
- Real-time location and telemetry updates via GPRS (TCP/IP) and GT06 protocol for live mapping on Plaspy dashboards.
- Ignition/ACC status reporting to reflect vehicle on/off state—useful for fleet utilization and route audits.
- Geo-fence and overspeed alarms transmit immediately to Plaspy to trigger notifications and workflows.
- Remote immobilizer capability via relay control — commands can be issued from Plaspy or via SMS/command as configured.
- Standard SMS/command and server configuration commands for remote provisioning, troubleshooting and IMEI/server checks.
- Telemetry data from the device can be combined with external sensors (when available) to support fuel monitoring workflows in Plaspy.
