The AutoFon Omega Mayak XL (v.8.7) is a compact, battery-powered GPS tracker engineered for discrete, long-term asset monitoring and recovery. Built on the v.8 hardware platform, this Plaspy compatible beacon combines high-sensitivity dual-system GNSS (GLONASS + GPS) positioning with dual-SIM GSM connectivity and robust offline logging so you can maintain reliable location intelligence and telemetry even when cellular coverage is intermittent.
Designed for ultra-low-power operation in covert installations, the Omega Mayak XL is ideal where maintenance visits are rare or discreet tracking is essential. With flexible reporting intervals, SMS and GPRS reporting to a monitoring server, built-in BLE for close-range localization, and a sealed IP67 enclosure, it integrates with Plaspy for real-time tracking, long-term history, and alarm workflows used in fleet management and anti-theft strategies.
Key Highlights
- Plaspy compatible: direct GPRS reporting and SMS options enable seamless integration with Plaspy for real-time tracking and historical playback.
- Long autonomy battery design: runs on three standard AA lithium cells (3 × 3000 mAh) for multi-year intermittent operation in sleep modes.
- Dual GNSS (GLONASS + GPS): high-sensitivity positioning for improved lock in challenging environments and fast time-to-first-fix with AGPS support.
- Resilient communications: dual SIM slots and automatic APN detection improve uptime and reduce single-carrier dependency for telemetry and alerts.
- Large offline buffer: internal non‑volatile “black box” stores at least 15,000 unsent GPRS packets for later transmission when connectivity returns.
- Sensor suite for security: built-in accelerometer for motion, tilt and crash detection, internal SOS button, temperature sensing and battery discharge monitoring.
- Close-range and presence features: BLE for smartphone presence tagging and proximity-based workflows using Bluetooth sensors.
- Rugged, covert form factor: IP67 hermetic enclosure and compact beacon body suitable for concealed installations.
How It Works with Plaspy
When integrated with Plaspy, the AutoFon Omega Mayak XL becomes a discreet source of high-integrity location and telemetry data. The device can report over GPRS to a configured monitoring server or send SMS messages with map links and diagnostics. Plaspy ingests these inputs to deliver live location updates, alerts, and consolidated reports for operations, security, and compliance.
- Real-time location and telemetry updates via GPRS to Plaspy (when in continuous online mode) or periodic check-ins in interval sleeping mode.
- Motion, tilt and crash detection from the internal digital accelerometer for immediate alerting and anti-theft workflows.
- Battery discharge and internal temperature telemetry exposed to Plaspy for asset health monitoring and scheduled maintenance planning.
- BLE-based presence and close-range localization using paired smartphones or Bluetooth sensors for short-range verification and asset proximity checks.
- Offline resilience: internal black box memory stores up to 15,000 GPRS packets and forwards them to Plaspy once connectivity is restored; LBS (cell-tower) fallback provides coarse positioning when GNSS is unavailable.
- SMS fallback and configurable server-side commands allow Plaspy users to receive critical notifications even without IP connectivity.

Use Cases
- Covert vehicle recovery and anti-theft: discreet beaconing and crash/motion alerts help recover vehicles while preserving battery life between check-ins.
- Long-term asset tracking: remote equipment, containers, or trailers that require multi-year autonomy with infrequent maintenance visits.
- Portable high-autonomy tracking: batteries and sleep modes support temporary or seasonal deployments where charging is impractical.
- Remote telemetry & health monitoring: battery discharge, temperature, and activity counters report asset condition to Plaspy for preventive actions.
- Close-range presence and verification: BLE smartphone tagging for driver or operator presence checks and short-range localization in secure workflows.
Why Choose This Tracker with Plaspy
The Omega Mayak XL is a reliable choice when Plaspy users need a low-profile, low-maintenance GPS tracker that prioritizes autonomy and data integrity. Its dual GNSS reception and large offline buffer keep a continuous record of location and telemetry, while dual SIMs and SMS/GPRS reporting options maximize the chances that position data reaches Plaspy in real time. For fleet management and anti-theft programs, the tracker supplies motion, tilt, crash and battery telemetry that Plaspy can use alongside other inputs—such as fuel monitoring, ignition state, or immobilizer control—within a comprehensive monitoring strategy. With secure configuration options, FOTA support and a sealed IP67 enclosure, the Omega Mayak XL offers a durable, Plaspy compatible solution for covert tracking and long-term telemetry needs.
