Ulbotech T361 OBD-II GPS Tracker
The Ulbotech T361 is a Plaspy compatible GPS tracker engineered for fast, reliable plug-and-play deployment via a vehicle’s OBD-II port. Designed for fleet management, security and driver behavior monitoring, the T361 exposes engine data, CAN/J1939 diagnostics and real-time telemetry so you can add vehicle-level insight to your Plaspy platform quickly and without wiring changes.
Compact and robust, the T361 combines a quad-band GSM/GPRS modem with a u-blox 6M GNSS module, an internal immobilizer (engine cut output), and a 3-axis accelerometer to support real-time tracking, anti-theft functions and detailed driving-event analysis. Its integration with Plaspy enables configurable alerts, reports and remote firmware updates for scalable vehicle and fleet telematics.
Key Highlights
- Plug-and-play OBD-II installation for fast deployment across fleets and rental vehicles.
- Quad-band GSM/GPRS connectivity (850/900/1800/1900 MHz) for wide network compatibility and real-time tracking.
- High-sensitivity positioning with u-blox 6M GNSS and A-GPS for quick TTFF and autonomous position accuracy under 3 m.
- Direct access to engine data and diagnostics (OBD protocols plus SAE J1939 CANBUS) to deliver rich telemetry and ECU-sourced events.
- Built-in immobilizer/engine cut digital output for anti-theft and remote immobilization workflows.
- On-device accelerometer for driver behavior detection (harsh braking, rapid acceleration, harsh cornering) and collision/motion alerts.
- Remote firmware updates (FOTA) and auto APN/time zone detection to simplify large-scale rollouts and maintenance.
How It Works with Plaspy
When paired with Plaspy, the T361 delivers continuous location and vehicle telemetry into your platform so you can run real-time tracking, event-driven alerts and scheduled reports. Plaspy ingests the device’s OBD and sensor streams, normalizes diagnostic PIDs and combines them with GPS fixes to enable fleet management, safety monitoring and anti-theft response.
- Real-time location and telemetry updates sent over GPRS for live tracking dashboards and history playback.
- Vehicle diagnostic data (OBD-II PIDs and SAE J1939) available to Plaspy for engine status, fault codes and telemetry-driven rules.
- Ignition status and a single digital output for remote engine cut/immobilizer control to support anti-theft workflows.
- Configurable alerts in Plaspy for geo-fence crossings, unplug/disconnect events, low battery and driver behavior events (rapid acceleration, harsh braking, high RPM, long idling).
- Remote firmware updates (FOTA) via GPRS from an FTP server for centralized device management through Plaspy’s provisioning tools.
- Engine/ECU data exposed by the T361 can be used by Plaspy to enable fuel monitoring and consumption analysis where the vehicle ECU provides the necessary PIDs.

Why Choose This Tracker with Plaspy
The Ulbotech T361 combines the simplicity of OBD-II plug-and-play installation with the telemetry depth fleets and service providers need. As a Plaspy compatible GPS tracker, it delivers ECU-level data, reliable real-time location and built-in immobilizer control so you can deploy anti-theft, fleet management and insurance telematics solutions without complex installs. Remote FOTA, auto APN/time zone setup and on-device memory reduce maintenance overhead and downtime, while the u-blox GNSS and GSM/GPRS radio ensure consistent connectivity and accurate tracking. If your deployment requires compact OBD-II hardware that feeds rich telemetry into Plaspy for alerts, reports and remote management, the T361 is a practical, proven option.
Set Up T361
Use with a tracker
-
Set the Operator APN
