GlobalSat - TR-520

The TR-520 is a battery-powered GPS tracker designed for long-term deployments and is fully Plaspy compatible for seamless integration into your tracking and telematics workflows. Built around LTE-M and NB-IoT low-power wide-area connectivity, the TR-520 delivers reliable location updates and motion intelligence for asset, vehicle, and animal tracking where long battery life and rugged reliability matter.

Ideal for fleet management, remote asset monitoring, and livestock tracking, the TR-520 combines a built-in GNSS receiver, a 3-axis accelerometer, BLE capability for improved indoor positioning, and a 19Ah non-rechargeable battery. With IP69K waterproofing and OTA firmware updates via LTE-M/NB-IoT, the TR-520 is engineered to stay in the field with minimal maintenance while feeding Plaspy the data your operations need.

Key Highlights

• Plaspy compatible GPS tracker that transmits location over LTE‑M and NB‑IoT for long-range, low-power deployments.
• Long field life from a 19Ah non-rechargeable battery—ideal for infrequent-maintenance scenarios and remote assets.
• Built-in GNSS and a 3-axis accelerometer for reliable movement detection, stop/event reporting, and route history.
• BLE support for improved indoor positioning and proximity workflows where GPS signals are weak.
• Rugged IP69K waterproof rating for harsh outdoor, agricultural, and industrial environments.
• OTA firmware updates over LTE‑M/NB‑IoT and mobile app configuration for remote management and tuning.
• Optional magnetic bracket for quick, secure mounting on vehicles or metal assets.

How It Works with Plaspy

When paired with Plaspy, the TR-520 becomes an efficient data source for real-time tracking, telemetry, and event-driven alerts. Its low-power LTE‑M/NB‑IoT radio sends periodic GNSS fixes and accelerometer-derived movement events to Plaspy, where you can visualize location history, generate reports, and trigger rules for anti-theft or operational workflows.

• Real-time location and telemetry updates over LTE‑M / NB‑IoT into Plaspy dashboards for tracking and reporting.
• Movement detection and stop/event reporting via the 3‑axis accelerometer—useful for geofence alerts and route monitoring.
• BLE-assisted indoor positioning to improve accuracy when GNSS coverage is limited; Plaspy can use BLE proximity data to refine location context.
• Battery and device health monitoring transmitted to Plaspy so you can schedule replacements before failures occur.
• OTA firmware updates and mobile-app configuration make it simple to keep devices current and aligned with Plaspy integration settings.

Technical Overview

Use Cases

• Fleet management for low-power vehicles and trailers where long battery life reduces maintenance visits.
• Asset and remote equipment monitoring in industrial or agricultural settings exposed to water and dust (IP69K rated).
• Livestock and animal tracking—durable enclosure and long battery life enable seasonal or multi-month deployments.
• Hybrid outdoor/indoor scenarios where GNSS provides coarse positioning and BLE improves indoor location granularity.
• Remote telemetry aggregation for operations that need periodic updates rather than continuous high-bandwidth connections.

Why Choose This Tracker with Plaspy

The TR-520 is a practical choice when you need a Plaspy compatible GPS tracker optimized for long-term, low-maintenance deployments. Its LTE‑M/NB‑IoT communications balance coverage and battery efficiency, while the 3‑axis accelerometer and GNSS provide robust movement and location data for fleet management and anti-theft workflows. OTA updates and mobile app configuration simplify lifecycle management, and the IP69K rating ensures the device can operate in demanding outdoor or agricultural environments.

Integrating the TR-520 with Plaspy gives you actionable telemetry and status visibility. Plaspy can consolidate TR-520 location and motion data with other inputs—such as ignition state, immobilizer controls, or fuel monitoring—when those signals are supplied by vehicle interfaces or external sensors. This makes the TR-520 a flexible building block for end-to-end tracking, safety, and operational optimization across fleets, assets, and animal-tracking deployments.
