Portronix GPS Receiver Module for Kenwood Two-way Radios. Includes magnetic GPS Antenna.
Requires a base station and software to operate. This module is for the mobile unit.
PGPS1 GPS Receiver Module from PORTRONIX® makes it easy to incorporate
Vehicle Tracking and Vehicle Location functions within your 2-way radio.
This inexpensive module works in conjunction with modem circuitry that is
already built into popular radio models. Programmable settings within the
radio allow for position updates that are manually-polled,
automatically-timed, or driver-initiated. Unlike other solutions that
require an external box and an interface cable to connect to the radio,
the PGPS1 is small enough to fit completely inside the mobile radio
housing. A simple 3-wire connection to factory marked points within the
radio is required. The radio is then programmed per customer
requirements.
Why pay for a separate GPS tracking device when you can have all the
functionality of a 2-way radio and accurate GPS location
within the same unit? The PGPS1 is perfect for School Buses, Ambulances,
Emergency Response, Public Safety, Utility Companies, and any Commercial
Business that wishes to manage its fleet safely and efficiently.
Even if your personnel are already equipped with 2-way communications
equipment, studies have shown that it is possible to eliminate up to 90%
of your normal voice communications. No more questions such as "Where are
you?", or "How far away are you from the office?", or "When will you
arrive at your next stop?", or "Can you stop at the warehouse to pick up
supplies for tomorrow's job?"
When used with mapping software (such as Manning NavComp's
RASTRAC®), the PGPS1 module and an appropriate 2-way
radio (such as Kenwood's FleetSync-enabled mobiles) will provide 21st
Century efficiency to your organization.
