The RX-12 LTE-M Waterproof GPS Vehicle Tracker is a compact, rugged GPS tracker designed for reliable Plaspy compatible deployment across cars, vans, trucks, trailers and heavy machinery. With an integrated LTE-M/2G cellular module, a high‑sensitivity u‑blox GNSS receiver and built‑in antennas inside an IP67, heat‑tolerant enclosure, the RX-12 delivers consistent real‑time tracking and telemetry while minimizing installation complexity and tamper exposure.
Built for fleet management, vehicle recovery and demanding field use, the RX-12 supports event‑driven reporting (speed, motion, ignition), OTA firmware and configuration updates, and hardened power protection to reduce maintenance and downtime. When connected to Plaspy, the RX-12 becomes a straightforward, scalable endpoint for anti‑theft, telemetry and PAYD insurance workflows.
Key Highlights
- Plaspy compatible: native support for event-driven, real‑time tracking and telemetry integration with Plaspy dashboards and alerts.
- Reliable connectivity: LTE Cat‑M1 (LTE‑M) with EGPRS quad‑band 2G fallback for broad cellular coverage and low power wide area operation.
- Rugged, low‑profile design: IP67 waterproof, dust‑tight enclosure rated up to 85 °C with built‑in antennas for discreet installation and reduced tampering.
- Event triggers for efficient reporting: configurable reporting on speed, motion and ignition to conserve data while ensuring timely updates.
- Robust power protection: voltage surge protection up to 60 V with optional ISO‑7637 module for noisy electrical environments.
- Remote management: OTA firmware and configuration updates to reduce field visits and keep units up to date.
- Vehicle interface flexibility: active‑high/active‑low inputs and two outputs with an optional immobilizer relay for anti‑theft and remote control scenarios.
How It Works with Plaspy
The RX-12 transmits GNSS positions and telemetry over LTE‑M or 2G to Plaspy’s cloud platform where location, status and sensor data are processed in real time. Plaspy ingests position fixes, accelerometer events and input/output states to power fleet management features, alerts and historical reports. Event-driven reporting (speed, motion or ignition) ensures Plaspy receives timely updates while minimizing unnecessary data traffic.
- Real‑time location and telemetry updates delivered to Plaspy via LTE‑M / EGPRS.
- Ignition and motion detection for intelligent trip start/stop, driver event logging and door/alarm status monitoring where wired to vehicle inputs.
- Fuel monitoring and other vehicle telemetry possible where vehicle sensors are wired into the RX-12 inputs (supports active‑high and active‑low configurations).
- Remote immobilizer control via RX‑12 outputs (optional immobilizer relay), enabling Plaspy to support anti‑theft workflows.
- Bluetooth sensors: the RX‑12 does not include Bluetooth, but Plaspy can incorporate Bluetooth sensor data from compatible gateways or other Plaspy‑integrated devices in mixed deployments.
