Travel in comfort
Alarm + Tracking
A lot of unexpected things can happen during your travels, such as breakdowns, accidents and tire damages. When situations like these occur, certain recipients are automatically informed via SMS and e-mail; like eCall. The best thing about it: if the motor home is mainly used for commercial purposes, then the electronic logbook is right there with it!
Questions & Answers - GPS, GNSS, GSM, 4G, 5G
What are the benefits of using a GPS tracker for campers?
GPS trackers for campers and caravans provide security through real-time location tracking, theft alerts, and vehicle status monitoring. They can also help recover stolen vehicles and reduce insurance premiums. GPS trackers use 4G/5G cellular networks to transmit real-time tracking data to an app or web platform. This allows users to monitor their camper's location and status from anywhere with internet access, ensuring constant connectivity and up-to-date information.
How does the GPS tracking device protect my camper or trailer from theft and other unauthorized movements?
Our vehicle tracking device combines multi-satellite GNSS with a cellular modem to provide real-time location data every few seconds. As soon as the system detects towing, ignition, or GPS interference, it triggers an alarm and sends a text and email notification to your phone and any other contacts you specify. Because the device is mounted on a hidden three-wire wiring harness and has an 1800 mAh backup battery, it will continue transmitting even if the external power supply is interrupted.
How long can I expect battery life while my caravan is parked?
In sleep mode, the hardware consumes less than 5 mA, so your onboard battery won't drain. If the voltage drops close to your preset threshold, the device will switch to internal memory and alert you that the battery is low. In backup mode, the tracking device will transmit data for up to 6 days—plenty of time for the police to recover a stolen motorhome or trailer. A multi-network SIM card automatically uses roaming in over 150 countries, so you can stay online even in remote valleys or unfamiliar ports without having to purchase local data. All data traffic to the cloud tracking system is covered by a flat rate—no unexpected roaming bills.
Can you really do the installation yourself, and what options are available for different vehicle types?
In most motorhomes, the device can be easily hidden behind the dashboard and the three cables connected. For caravans, cars, or trailers, you can run the tracker solely on its internal battery and attach it with the included magnet or adhesive. Owners who want engine diagnostics can opt for our OBD plug-in vehicle tracker. Fleet operators can book professional hard-wiring at one of Arealcontrol's 750 partner workshops across Europe.
What additional features do the mobile app and web portal offer beyond simple location verification?
In addition to live maps, you get route tracking, shareable "locator links" for roadside assistance, trip categorization (private/business) for tax purposes, geo- and time-fencing, BLE accessory tracking for bicycles and generators, and remote firmware updates. The dashboard also displays battery voltage, signal quality, and temperature (with an optional sensor), and allows you to remotely activate and deactivate motion detectors. All data is stored on GDPR-compliant EU servers. Your subscription covers all features, so you can start with one RV today and add more tracking devices or vehicle tags as your family fleet grows.
What is an OBD tracker and how is it used to track RVs?
An OBD tracker connects to a vehicle's on-board diagnostics port and enables location tracking and vehicle diagnostics. It is often used to track RVs to monitor vehicle performance and ensure optimal operation. OBD trackers are not suitable for theft prevention.
Can I remotely deactivate my RV or camper?
Technically, this is not a problem and can be easily installed by a professional. However, legal restrictions must be observed, as it could constitute interference with road traffic. AREALCONTROL has been well-known in the security sector for over 20 years with its technical solutions for vehicles. Just contact us. We offer smart telematics solutions that, for example, prevent a vehicle from driving away in the first place.
