Sanav - GC-101 Features

This page summarizes the public feature context for using the Sanav GC-101 GPS tracker with Plaspy. It focuses on practical, user-facing capabilities and explains how the device's data and behaviors map to monitoring and reporting inside the Plaspy platform. Technical implementation details required for device setup should be taken from official Sanav documentation.

Exact feature availability and behavior can vary by firmware version, hardware revision, installation method, and manufacturer configuration. Where possible this page sticks to the device characteristics described by the manufacturer such as RMC sentence uploads over GPRS, quadband GSM connectivity, internal memory and backup battery, TCP and UDP support, time and distance based reporting, sleep mode, and pre-defined inputs like panic buttons.

Feature Overview​

The GC-101 is a compact, GPRS-based tracker designed for continuous location reporting to an assigned server. It is oriented toward fleet and security use cases where reliable periodic reporting and buffering during outages are important.

  • Uploads RMC sentences containing latitude, longitude, speed, and time to an assigned web server for location and basic telemetry.
  • Full quadband GSM connectivity for broad regional coverage and roaming capability.
  • Supports TCP and UDP communication modes to send position reports to a server.
  • Internal memory and a backup battery help preserve data during power loss or temporary network outages.
  • Configurable position reporting by time and distance to balance reporting frequency with communication use.
  • Sleep mode to reduce power draw when the device is idle.

Core Features of Sanav - GC-101​

  • GPRS based upload of RMC sentences including position, speed, and timestamp.
  • Full quadband GSM for wide area cellular connectivity.
  • TCP and UDP communication support for flexible server integration.
  • Internal memory for temporary data storage when connectivity is interrupted.
  • Backup battery to maintain operation and preserve buffered data during power issues.
  • Time and distance based position reporting for adjustable tracking intervals.
  • Sleep mode to conserve power between reporting events.
  • Pre-defined inputs such as panic button support for basic event signalling.

How These Features Work with Plaspy​

Plaspy can ingest the position reports and basic telemetry the GC-101 sends, presenting that information in dashboard and map views for operational oversight. Plaspy's platform is built to accept standard tracker uploads and make those events visible to users for monitoring and analysis.

  • Plaspy receives the device's reports and displays latitude and longitude on maps alongside reported speed and timestamp.
  • Time and distance reporting settings on the device translate into reporting cadence visible as regular or intermittent updates in Plaspy.
  • Internal memory and backup power help ensure that position data is uploaded after outages, which Plaspy shows as restored historical points when they arrive.
  • Panic or input-triggered events reported by the device can be surfaced in Plaspy as alerts or event logs depending on how the inputs are mapped.
  • Plaspy automatically detects common tracker protocols to simplify server-side handling of incoming reports.

Typical Use Cases​

  • Fleet vehicle location tracking and route oversight for logistics operations.
  • Asset monitoring where periodic position reports and buffering during outages are required.
  • Personal or life security tracking that leverages input-triggered alerts such as panic buttons.
  • Rental vehicle monitoring with time and distance based reporting for efficient data use.
  • Remote or intermittent-coverage deployments where internal memory can hold reports until connectivity returns.

Feature Availability Notes​

  • Firmware and configuration affect which reporting modes and input behaviors are available on a given unit.
  • Hardware revisions or regional variants may alter cellular band support or antenna arrangements.
  • Installation type and wiring determine access to pre-defined inputs and power behavior.
  • Internal memory capacity and backup battery duration vary and should be checked on the specific device or firmware revision.
  • Always consult the device manual and manufacturer notes for exact configuration instructions and feature limitations.

Why Use Plaspy with These Features​

Using the GC-101 with Plaspy brings device-origin location and basic telemetry into a centralized monitoring environment, enabling teams to track movement, review historical positions, and see event signals such as panic inputs. Plaspy's platform is useful for organizations that need consolidated visibility across a mixed device fleet and that benefit from platform features like mapping, event logging, and reporting.
