Key product features​

Abeeway industrial tracker provides you with the flexibility you need to adapt your tracker's behavior to your use case, selecting the right operating mode and geolocation technology.

Multiple operating modes​

  • Motion tracking : Tracker reports real-time position only when motion is detected. This is the default configuration that you can discover applying instructions given in this guide.
  • Permanent tracking : Tracker reports periodic real time positions.
  • Start/End motion tracking : Tracker reports positions only at the start and end events of the motion.
  • Position on-demand : Tracker sends its position only when requested from the end-user (very low power operating mode). The position request can be made from the geolocation backend platform.
  • Activity tracking : Monitor activity rate with embedded sensors.
  • Standby : The tracker sends periodically short LoRaWAN® messages, called heartbeat, at the configured interval. The tracker positions can be obtained in this mode by using the side operations features. Once the tracker has joined the LoRaWAN® network, the tracker is set to standby mode to save battery. We recommend to put the tracker in standby mode when not in testing to save the battery lifetime.
WARNING
  • For more information on the battery lifetime of the tracker, visit here

  • The Industrial tracker is activated by default to make LoRaWAN joins indefinately. There is delay between different join attempts which range from 15 minutes to 1 hour.

Geolocation technologies​

  • GPS : For precise outdoor positioning
  • Low Power-GPS (LP-GPS) : For power-efficient outdoor and daylight indoor positioning LP-GPS is an Actility proprietary technology based on GPS. Enabling Fast Time to First Fix, it results in improved battery lifetime.
  • Wi-Fi : For indoor and outdoor location services in urban areas It leverages the Wi-Fi access point scanning capabilities of the industrial tracker.
