As a leading manufacturer and hardware solution provider of 4g vehicle gps tracker in China, during the long-term innovation and research and development work, I often communicate with many industry customers about projects and problems.

We have sorted out the recent problems related to vehicle locator and made detailed answers. Through this mode of answering questions, we hope to allow more customers in the industry to better understand the relevant instructions and precautions of vehicle locator.

Scenario 1: Why is the device not online immediately after being connected to the power supply?

The reasons for this problem are various, and it is related to the weather environment of the venue at that time. First of all, 2G positioning devices are often not as fast as 4G positioning devices online; Secondly, after obtaining positioning information, the positioning device should be uploaded to the platform through the Internet of Things card, and the platform needs to respond, this process also takes time, so it is recommended that when installing the car locator, try to choose an open scene.

Scenario 2: Why is the device online but no location information is displayed?

When using and installing 4g vehicle gps tracker, we must be clear: online and positioning are different, are two concepts. Online refers to the response interaction between the device and the platform; The positioning is the response interaction between the satellite positioning system and the locator and between the platform.

Therefore, after the general locator is online, within 1 to 5 minutes, it will be positioned accordingly. If there is no positioning in 5 to 10 minutes, then we can start the vehicle and drive for a distance and then check the positioning status.

Scenario 3: Why do I not go online or locate after installation?

If you do not go online, the following three situations exist.

The first case is that there is a quality problem with the equipment. It could be a communication antenna, it could be a PCB board, but this is extremely rare.

The second situation is that there may be problems with the iot card. At this time, we need to contact the Internet of Things card operator or log in to the Internet of Things card management background to check whether the status of the Internet of Things card on the locator has been stopped, which is also very rare.

The third case is the more common problem of signal masking. The installer installs the locator inside the relatively hidden car body, wrapped around the metal sheet metal or installed in the sheet metal room. In this case, whether it is the positioning signal of the locator or the communication signal of the locator, it will be interfered with by the metal object, shielded or bounced. Therefore, when we install the positioner, try to avoid installing the positioner in the metal body and stuffing it into the sheet metal deep inside the car.
