Q79.

How does the technology work?

Answer :

This combines GPS and GSM technologies. When you do a location request, it will reference a system of 24 GPS satellites circling the earth. At the same time, the Unit taps into the GSM network based on the location of the closest GSM cell tower to narrow down the search window for GPS signals. This significantly shortens the time it takes to get a GPS reading. In addition, in places where GPS signal strength is weak, such as inside a concrete building or an underground parking structure, GPS Integrated’s Location Service Center will fall back on GSM cell tower location. This way, the device is equipped to get a location reading regardless of GPS signal strength. The Unit must have GSM network coverage, however, to work.

Q80.

Will the technology work everywhere I go?

Answer :

The performance and coverage may vary. The performance of every wireless communications system is subject to local conditions, like GSM network coverage and where a caller is located when they use. Wireless location solution is not only subject to local conditions in the wireless network since it uses the wireless network to relay position requests and information. but it is also subject to local conditions that can affect GPS performance, such as: GSM calling coverage and local conditions in the GSM network; The location of the GPS satellites in space in relation to the phone; The amount of blockage between the phone and the sky, and; How the phone is being held.

Q81.

Why is there limited coverage when GPS works anywhere in the world?

Answer:

While it’s true that GPS works everywhere in the world, GPS Integrated’s location technology uses GPS and digital wireless (GSM) technologies to find and communicate the location of the person wearing the device. Signals and service from both are needed for complete, end-to-end location reporting to occur. Since GPS Integrated’s technology uses GPS coordinates on a nationwide digital wireless network, device needs to be within the coverage area for the communication to occur.

Q89.

When we access live tracking on Google earth, we always have a line at the beggining of the day somewhere very far away from actual expected location.

Answer :

When device boots up after it is powered off (or wakes up after sleep mode), it usually takes 5 to 8 minutes for it to lock the data received from the GPS satellites. It normally require signals from 3-4 GPS satellite to start giving accurate location but initially when it power up it may only get signal form 1-2 satellites. So initial one or two logs could be away from the original Location.

How do time allocation work in GPSIntegrated?

Answer :

Time Allocation to Organisation and Users:

1] Allocated Usage Time for Organisation:

Usage Time can be allocated to any Organisation from available Allocated Usage Time of its Account.

For Example :One Account named as “BioEnable”, has given 100 hrs for usage of the Software.Then Organisations belonging to this account will be allocated (given) Usage Time from this Account’s Allocated Usage Time i.e. from 100 hrs.The sum of Allocated Usage Time of all Organisations should not be greater than Allocated Usage Time of their Account.

If there are 3 Organisations in BioEnable Account For Example they are Green Terrace, Raksha-Lekha And Ishwar-Sharan.

Then these Organisations can get the usage time from the available 100 hrs.

If we allocate 30 hrs to Green Terrace, then for Raksha-Lekha and Ishwar-Sharan the available usage time will be 100-30 = 70 hrs.

Let us allocate 25 hrs to Raksha-Lekha and 15 hrs to Ishwar-Sharan.

Then: Allocated Usage Time for Green Terrace (30) + Allocated Usage Time for Raksha-Lekha (25) + Allocated Usage Time for Ishwar-Sharan (15) + X = Allocated Usage Time of BioEnable Where X = 100-(30+25+15) = 100 – 70 = 30 hrs.

If any new Organisation is added to this account then it will be allocated Usage Time from this available 30 hrs.

2] Allocated Usage Time for Users:

Users of an Organisation will be allocated (given) Usage Time from available Usage Time of its Organisation, in the similar way as an Organisation gets it from its Account.

If Green-Terrace is having 30 hrs Allocated Usage Time and if a single user is added to it, he can get maximum of 30 hrs for usage.But if a single user has given full 30 hrs for usage then any other user will not get any time for usage. For Example If we have n Users (A1, A2, A3, …, An) in Green Terrace then: Allocated Usage Time of A1 + A2 + A3 + …+ An = Allocated Usage Time of Green Terrace.

On Dash Board Vehicle is shown connected still unable to get logs ,The updated log data is of old one shown?

Answer :

Resending Missed Logs by Device is GSM/GPRS dependent concept

As we know GPRS is add on service provided by GSM operators.

So when we talk about GSM, it includes Voice calling, sms sending/receiving and when we talk about GPRS , this means ability to use Internet.

GSM operators need special configurations required to be done at all the base stations to enable that base station to support GPRS, not all base stations are necessary to have GPRS option, so this means there are chances that at some place, only GSM (voice / SMS) work , but GPRS (internet ) does not.

The Missed logs concept is basically , if device is not able to connect to internet (if the mode of communication is only GPRS ), then it stores the data in memory (RAM)(even when GSM is available but GPRS is not) .

“(if the mode of communication is only GPRS )” , this is mentioned here because our device is not in-corporate with SMS Facility, when NO GPRS is available, so there is only ONE WAY with which device can send logs, and that is GPRS

So if we enable SMS when there is NO GPRS , then the device will

1] first check if GPRS is available, if yes then send data thru GPRS

2] Else if GPRS is NOT available , then it will check for GSM availability, and send the data thru SMS

3] Else if GPRS and GSM both are NOT Available, then it will store the Logs in RAM, for sending later when anyone of them is Available.But as the Device presently Don’t support SMS at all .So as device has stored the logs in it’s RAM and now when it comes back in Area where GPRS is enabled in the Base Station then the device is able to connect to INTERNET, and it sends all the saved logs.

PLS NOTE:

(If Device is restarted in between then all such logs will be deleted, as these logs are saved in RAM not in FLASH)

In configuration of devices ,It is generally set SMS+GPRS mode in utility.As presently not supported by unit Hence this is keept disabled, so SMS is not used when GPRS is failed .Also see that Even Device is not in coverage the symbol of Vehicle shows connected in Software & if server unable to recive data within three Day’s their is a Cross symbol in front of it.It is very much essential to keep always battery full i.e with charger for charging.

Why is there limited coverage when GPS works anywhere in the world?

Answer :

While it’s true that GPS works everywhere in the world, GPS Integrated’s location technology uses GPS and digital wireless (GSM) technologies to find and communicate the location of the person wearing the device. Signals and service from both are needed for complete, end-to-end location reporting to occur. Since GPS Integrated’s technology uses GPS coordinates on a nationwide digital wireless network, device needs to be within the coverage area for the communication to occur.

Will the technology work everywhere I go?

Answer :

The performance and coverage may vary. The performance of every wireless communications system is subject to local conditions, like GSM network coverage and where a caller is located when they use. Wireless location solution is not only subject to local conditions in the wireless network since it uses the wireless network to relay position requests and information. but it is also subject to local conditions that can affect GPS performance, such as: GSM calling coverage and local conditions in the GSM network; The location of the GPS satellites in space in relation to the phone; The amount of blockage between the phone and the sky, and; How the phone is being held.

How does the technology work?

Answer :

This combines GPS and GSM technologies. When you do a location request, it will reference a system of 24 GPS satellites circling the earth. At the same time, the Unit taps into the GSM network based on the location of the closest GSM cell tower to narrow down the search window for GPS signals. This significantly shortens the time it takes to get a GPS reading. In addition, in places where GPS signal strength is weak, such as inside a concrete building or an underground parking structure, GPS Integrated’s Location Service Center will fall back on GSM cell tower location. This way, the device is equipped to get a location reading regardless of GPS signal strength. The Unit must have GSM network coverage, however, to work.

Where can I buy these devices?

Answer :

A link to the GPS Integrated e-Store can be found at gpsintegrated.com. You will also find a list of retail stores here as well.

What other applications are you thinking of applying this technology to?

Answer :

Because our mission is to enable people to locate loved-ones as well as any items of value, we are developing applications for vehicle tracking, asset tracking, personal electronics and pet care.

Will GPS Integrated’s products be available outside of the India?

Q16.

Connection protocols compaired (UDP/TCP)

Answer:

UDP

UDP was the only protocol supported by Aspicore GSM Tracker 1.xx.

UDP advantages

The UDP protocol is fast, we have found the connection sufficiently reliable, the response time is quick and it is cost-effective to use. A robust and efficient server end to handle multiple simultaneous clients is easier to implement with UDP than with TCP. UDP is in fact quite suitable for frequent one-way transmission of real-time location data. (Each datagram is timestamped, so ordering them in the receive end is not a problem. If some datagram sometimes happen to disappear, it is not normally a problem.)

UDP disadvantages

When you are using UDP in GSM Tracker, the application does not actually know, if the connection is valid end-to-end. Even if the icon shows the data connection is open, it does not guarantee that the UDP datagrams reach the destination. The application only knows, that it has got an IP connection to your service provider. The application does not have a clue, what happens to the sent datagrams. The service provider may ignore the datagrams without forwarding them anywhere.

TCP

TCP is an error-correcting protocol. TCP (with or without HTTP) is an option in Aspicore GSM Tracker version 3.13 and later.

TCP advantages

If the TCP connection is open, you know that you have an “open pipe” from end to end and you can trust that the messages reach the destination as long as the connection stays open.

The biggest advantage of TCP is that the mobile client gets notified immediately, when the connection is broken and it is possible to use the connection for two-way communication.

TCP diadvantages

Creating a TCP connection through a cellular data network is a bit slower than just sending an UDP datagram. Maintaining a TCP connections at the server end requires more CPU and network resources than receiving connectionless UDP datagrams. The connection maintenance makes the traffic costs (money and time) somewhat bigger than with UDP.

Q17.

Other ways to install .sis File E-Mail, MMS, IR, USB Data Cable, Memory Card reader.

Answer:

You can also try sending the SIS file to your phone via e-mail or MMS. Or via IR, although that may be problematic especially with older Windows versions like Windows 2000. If you have a USB data cable and Nokia PC Suite, that is one installation possibility.

If your phone takes memory cards and your PC has got a MMC memory card reader / writer, you can use the MMC card reader to copy the SIS file from your PC directly to the the phone’s memory card and then insert the MMC card into your handset. You’ll need to execute the SIS file with a file manager to start the Installer. If you have not got a real file manager on your phone, you can try putting the SIS file into \System\install directory on the MMC card and try using phone’s “Manager” from the Tools menu to install the SIS file. (If you haven’t got a file manager, we recommend FExplorer from http://www.newlc.com/).

Q30.

Nokia N95 and GPS time to First Fix.

Answer:

If you feel that it takes long time for your Nokia cell phone internal GPS to get the location fix even if there is a good satellite visibility, check your firmware version.

Go to phone settings -> General / Positioning / Positioning methods. Enable the option “Assisted GPS” or “Integrated GPS with assistance data” or something similar.

Sometimes you get easier real GPS data in weak conditions, if you disable the positioning method “Network based” and leave only the options “Assisted GPS” (and possibly “Integrated GPS”) enabled.

Check also that “Positioning server” / “Server address” is supl.nokia.com and “Access point” has a meaningful value.

At least Nokia N95 firmware V 10.0.021 29-09-07 contains the AGPS option but V 10.0.018 15-03-07 does not have it.

If you do not have the AGPS option, it really is worth the trouble to upgrade the firmware.

Check also that the GPS antenna within the phone gets good satellite signal from the sky. Keep the N95 sliding cover open as the GPS antenna is below the keypad. Metallic foil in a car windscreen weakens the signal. The GPS signal is strongest outdoors. Inside buildings it may be too weak.

Answer:

Yes, it is possile by using Mobile GPS Tracker.

You can record GPS data on the phone’s flash memory and transfer it later into your computer or you can send live data to a server via the cellular network (for this you need GPRS/3G roaming).

There are many ways to implement the Google Maps / Google Earth side yourself, if you want to set up your own server and you have some GPS and programming skills.

You can use our Server Also for that you have register with Us.

http://track.gpsintegrated.com/dashboard.aspx

Battery time is one critical parameter. The battery times vary a lot between different devices and also the cellular data connection power consumption may vary depending on the network.

Our application, Mobile GPS Tracker, is very configurable and it may take some time to understand all the settings, so I recommend you to get familiar with it before your actual travel starts. When the settings are once optimized, the usage is very easy.

Q44.

Error Copying File?

Answer:

Windows Explorer may say Error copying file after you have tried the pop-up menu command Send To -> Bluetooth -> <your phone>.

It seems that sometimes you cannot transfer a file, if there already exists a file with same name in the Inbox of your phone’s Messaging app. So it may be good to delete the message containing the SIS file from the Inbox after the application has been installed.

Sometimes Error copying file happens for no apparent reason. For example, copying from one of our Windows 2000 computer to our Nokia 7610 device does not work for some strange reason. Copying to other phones works. And also copying from a Windows XP computer to the Nokia 7610 works. We are using Belkin Bluetooth USB dongles. Perhaps the problem is in the Belkin W2k drivers or in Windows 2000. So if you have an opportunity to try installing from another PC, that may help.

You can also try pairing your PC with your phone: Go to Bluetooth app in you phone menu. Click right to enable the Paired devices tab. Make sure that your PC is listed there. Otherwise execute Options/New paired device. Make also sure that there is a lock symbol next to your PC name. This means that your PC has been set as “authorised” and your phone trusts your PC.

Q45.

How can I use Mobile GPS Tracker Abroad?
