TWIG LOCATOR

TWIG LOCATOR
Twig Locator is an auxiliary device for locating and tracking different targets. Place Locator on your desired target, e.g car, and you can easily monitor its location.
Twig Locator can send you continuously updated position messages. With these mes­sages, you can easily track your Locator’s movements. You can also create an anchor that alarms you if your Locator is moved out­side of your defined area.
You can call and send messages to Locator for its updated position at any time. Additionally, by making a voice call, you can also listen to what happens nearby the device.
Twig Locator is a GSM-device with in-built GPS-positioning and support for MPTP com­mands. It can be used with any corresponding Benefon GPS-GSM phones and back-end devices with support for MPTP commands.
