TTU-700 Series GPS TRACKERttu-700

The TTU-700  Series GPS TRACKER is a battery operated non-rechargeable trailer tracking product designed for reliable, multi-year deployments.

The TTU-700 Series GPS TRACKER is an ideal solution for managing assets that will be deployed for long periods without maintenance needs.

Its design is optimized for periodic location updates, rather than real time tracking.

Typical applications include:

  • Trailers
  • Containers
  • Portable Generators
  • Construction Equipment
  • ATMs

The tracker features a fully sealed and rugged enclosure designed to withstand the harshest outdoor environments. Both cellular and GPS antennas are enclosed within, ensuring reliability and ease of installation. Simply physically mount the unit via screws or magnetically and it’s deployed.

The TTU-700 Series GPS Tracker has a built in 3-axis accelerometer which is used to detect asset movement. Upon motion detection, it will wake from deep sleep, perform a location update and then transmit that information back to the customer platform.

The TTU-700 series features a non-rechargeable, long life battery. It can be swapped out with a new battery at the end of its charge. Here are some calculated projections to help you understand its capacity:

  • A fully charged tracker supports up to approximately  5,000 locate updates (locate and communicate back to the customer platform)
  • At one locate update cycle per day the battery will last approximately seven years
  • If no usage, the battery will still have capacity at the end of 7 years for a final 30 min tracking session
  • Factors such as cellular coverage strength and GPS acquisition difficulty will influence the above projections

Competitive Price, Competitive Technology, Competitive Edge

The TTU-700 high-value tracking unit from CalAmp features a small size, superior GPS performance, and an internal 57 Ah battery. The TTU-700 is a complete trailer and asset tracking and communications device incorporating next-generation, super-sensitive GPS technology on GPRS, CDMA and HSPA cellular networks for installation in any mobile asset. Superior internal antennas for both cellular and GPS eliminate the need for wired antennas and make the TTU-700 mountable virtually anywhere in the trailer for easy, inexpensive installations. Messages are transported across the GSM/GPRS network using enhanced SMS or UDP messaging providing a reliable communications link between the device and your application servers. The TTU-700 is designed to dramatically reduce cost, power and size while providing excellent field reliability.

Flexibility

The TTU-700 employs CalAmp’s industry leading on-board alert engine, PEG™ (Programmable Event Generator). This advanced engine monitors external conditions and supports customer-defined exception-based rules to help meet the needs of your application. PEG continuously monitors the vehicle environment and responds instantaneously to pre-defined threshold conditions related to time, date, motion, location, geo-zone, input and other event combinations. With PEG, your unique application will meet demanding customer requirements. This behavior can be programmed by CalAmp before shipment, at a customer’s facility, or over-the-air once the unit has been fielded.

Over-the-Air Serviceability

The TTU-700 also leverages CalAmp’s industry leading over-the-air device management and maintenance system, PULS™ (Programming, Updates, and Logistics System). Configuration parameters, PEG rules, and firmware can all be updated over the air. PULS offers out-of-the-box hands free configuration and automatic post-installation upgrades. You can also monitor unit health status across your customers’ fleets to quickly identify issues before they become expensive problems.

Typical Questions asked about the TTU-700 Series Asset / Trailer Tracking Solution:

1- Where can I mount the TTU-700 Series GPS TRACKER? Can I put it inside my trailer?

Our first recommended location would be on top of the trailer so it can get the  most optimum signal possible. You should not [place it in an area that is completely enclosed in metal. This can greatly diminish the signal strength.

2- Can it be mounted  the TTU-700 Series  GPS TRACKER under my trailer?

If you are going to mount under the trailer ( best if the frame is angle iron) we have had applications where a unit will get a good signal and others get no signal at all. The best thing to do is temporarily mount it in the area of choice and then check the satellite  and cell signal on your platform. If it is good, make the installation complete. If it is not- change the location.
