Competitive Price, Competitive Technology, Competitive Edge
The LMU-600 high-value tracking unit from CalAmp features a small size, superior GPS
performance, an optional internal 200mAh back-up battery, ultra low power sleep modes, an
optional 3-axis accelerometer for motion sense, tilt and impact detection, and up to two inputs
and one output (I/O). The LMU-600 is a complete vehicle tracking and communications device
incorporating next-generation, super-sensitive GPS technology on GSM/GPRS cellular networks
for installation in any 12 or 24 volt mobile vehicle. Superior internal antennas for both cellular
and GPS eliminate the need for wired antennas and make the LMU-600 mountable virtually
anywhere in the vehicle for easy, inexpensive installations. Messages are transported across the
cellular network using enhanced SMS or UDP messaging providing a reliable communication link
between the device and your application servers. The LMU-600 is designed to dramatically
reduce cost of ownership, power and size while providing excellent field reliability.
Flexibility
The LMU-600 employs CalAmp’s advanced industry leading on-board alert engine, PEG™
(Programmable Event Generator) to monitor external conditions and support customer-define
exceptions based rules to meet you application requirements. PEG monitors the vehicle
environment and responds instantaneously to pre-defined threshold conditions related to time,
date, motion, location, geo-zone, input and other event combinations. This behavior can be
programmed by CalAmp before shipment, at a customer’s facility, or over-the-air once the unit
has been fielded.
Over-The-Air Serviceability
The LMU-600 leverages CalAmp’s management and maintenance system, PULS™
(Programming, Updates, and Logistics System), for over-the-air configuration parameters, PEG
rules, and firmware. This out-of-th-box hands free configuration and automatic post-installation
upgrades can monitor unit health status across your customers’ fleets to identify issues before
they become expensive problems.
