Feature Overview
The Coban GPS108 is positioned as a versatile GPS tracker for vehicles and personal assets that uses GPS satellites together with GSM GPRS reporting. It focuses on reliable position reporting, address-level location information, configurable tracking modes, and a suite of alarms to notify users about movement or exceptional conditions.
- Precise GPS location reporting with manufacturer stated accuracy suitable for street level identification
- Address level position output so locations can be resolved into readable street addresses when supported
- Multiple tracking modes including single track and continuous automatic tracking for live and periodic reporting
- Built in alarm types including geo fencing, movement, over speed, shock sensor, and low battery alerts
- Long standby capability and weather resistant construction for extended deployment in diverse environments
Core Features of Coban - GPS108
- Accurate GPS positioning with manufacturer stated accuracy around five meters for typical conditions
- Exact street address output when supported by available network and device configuration
- Multi network tracking support including GPS and LBS plus an integrated three axis sensor for improved event detection
- Configurable tracking modes such as single tracking and continuous auto tracking
- Alarm and notification functions including geo fence alarm, movement alarm, over speed alarm, shock sensor alarm, and low battery alarm
- Sleep mode and schedule mode options to extend operating time and reduce reporting when not needed
- GPRS configuration and remote reporting capability for live monitoring and historical playback
- Rugged build with an IP67 waterproof rating for outdoor and vehicle use
How These Features Work with Plaspy
When a GPS108 is connected to Plaspy, the device's location reports and alarm events become available in Plaspy for monitoring, playback, and alerting. Plaspy automatically detects many tracker protocols and presents incoming data in a consistent way for tracking and operational use.
- Live location display and historical track playback on the Plaspy map when the device reports GPS positions
- Address level locations shown in Plaspy when the device or network supplies address resolution
- Alert notifications for geo fence, movement, over speed, shock sensor, and low battery events surfaced in Plaspy for rapid operational response
- Configurable reporting visibility so teams can monitor single point checks or continuous automatic tracking sessions
- Centralized event logs and device status indicators useful for fleet oversight and incident review
Typical Use Cases
- Vehicle anti theft monitoring and recovery workflows
- Tracking and supervision of children, elderly, or at-risk individuals in environments where discreet monitoring is needed
- Personnel location monitoring for field teams and lone worker visibility
- Asset and equipment tracking for portable or deployed units that need weather resistance
- Fleet location visibility and route playback for operational auditing and routing analysis
- Long term deployments where low power modes and schedule tracking extend battery life
Feature Availability Notes
- Manufacturer firmware and hardware revisions can change how a feature behaves or whether it is available on a particular unit
- Regional variants or carrier dependent services may affect address resolution and GPRS connectivity options
- Installation and wiring choices influence alarm availability and sensor behavior for movement and shock detection
- Battery life estimates depend heavily on reporting frequency, network conditions, and chosen sleep or schedule modes
- Always consult Coban documentation for the definitive list of supported functions and any limitations
