| SIM Size and Access | Internal Nano 4FF SIM |
Location
| GNSS Module | Sony CXD5612 |
| Constellations | Concurrent GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, QZSS |
| GNSS Assistance | GNSS almanac data for greater sensitivity and position accuracy |
| Low Noise Amplifier | GPS signals are filtered and boosted by a SAW filter and low-noise amplifier (LNA) allowing operation where other units fail. |
| Cell Tower Location | Cell tower fallback for positioning when there is no GNSS or Wi-Fi signal. |
| Location Accuracy* | GNSS: ~1m CEP Cell Tower Fallback: ~250m-1km. Dependent on number of nearby towers. |
| Secondary Module | Semtech LR1110 |
| Wi-Fi Positioning | Indoor asset location using Wi-Fi access point scanning (device does not connect to Wi-Fi). |
| Cloud-Based Solver | Asset location is calculated in Digital Matter’s Location Engine. |
| Location Accuracy* | Wi-Fi Scanning: ~10m-100m with Wi-Fi in urban areas. |
| * Positioning accuracy specifications are provided by the GNSS module supplier and reflect ideal conditions. Device configuration, installation, environmental conditions, augmentation services, and many other factors may lead to variations in positioning accuracy. |
Power
| User-Replaceable Batteries | 3 x AA. Batteries not included. Widely available at most hardware or retail locations. |
| Supported Battery Types | Lithium or Lithium Thionyl Chloride (LTC) Battery selection is very important. Follow this link to learn more. Please dispose of Lithium batteries in a safe and responsible manner. |
| *Battery Life Estimates | “Once Daily location updates – 10+ years Movement-Based location updates** – 5+ years Hourly location updates – 4+ years” |
| Sleep Current | <10uA Average current in lowest power state. |
| “* Battery life estimates are influenced by several factors including temperature, installation and orientation of the device, battery selection, the frequency of location updates, network coverage, sensor integrations, peripherals, accelerometer settings, and more. Battery life calculators are available at support.digitalmatter.com. ** Movement-based estimates are based on 2 hours of movement, occurring 5 days a week, with default trip tracking parameters (location updates every 3 minutes and uploads every 30 minutes). Devices can be configured to provide more frequent location updates when the asset is in motion which will impact battery life.” |

Smarts
| Adaptive Tracking | Configure parameters to send updates based on set time intervals or when movement occurs. Adaptive tracking technology detects when the device is on the move and increases the update rate, providing detail when you need it while conserving battery when stationary. |
| Battery Life Monitoring | ‘Battery Low’ and ‘Battery Critical’ alert levels. |
| Geofencing | The server can use device location to create geofences and alerts if an asset enters or leaves designated locations. Geofences can also be downloaded directly to the device for enhanced location-based actions and alerts. View storage capacity here. |
| Impact Detection | Configure impact-detection alerts when G-forces are exceeded by a user-defined threshold. |
| Magnetic Activation | Removal of the magnet can be used to activate the unit, enabling the preprovisioning of SIM cards and batteries. |
| Rotation Counting | Keeps a count of the number of rotations of the device. |
| Run Hour Monitoring | Capture run hours based on movement to understand and optimize asset utilization. |
| Sleep Mode | Stationary devices enter sleep mode until movement occurs to conserve battery life and optimize data usage. |
| Tamper Detection | External magnet provides an alert if the device is removed from your asset. |
| Theft Recovery | Switch to Recovery Mode in the case of theft or loss to activate real-time tracking for asset retrieval. |
| Tip Detection | Define a range of angles that constitutes a ‘tipped’ state and configure alerts |
