Xirgo - XT-4500 Features

This page provides a public, non-sensitive feature overview of the Xirgo XT-4500 and how its capabilities relate to use with Plaspy. It summarizes the tracker’s practical functions and operational value when reporting location, status, and basic asset health into the Plaspy platform, while keeping configuration and implementation details at a high level.

Exact feature availability and behavior can vary by firmware version, hardware revision, optional accessories, and how the device is installed. The XT-4500 description used here highlights the device’s low power GPRS modem with integrated GPS, rechargeable battery controller, power management processor, integrated antennas, and optional sensors such as motion detection and an accelerometer.

Feature Overview​

The XT-4500 is positioned as an ultra low power GPRS modem with integrated GPS and a rechargeable battery controller, designed for remote or intermittently powered assets. It is compact, can be fitted with a weatherproof case, and includes optional sensors to extend monitoring beyond basic location.

  • Ultra low power design suited to assets with inconsistent power access
  • Integrated cellular and GPS antennas for compact and reliable installation
  • Rechargeable battery options including smaller and larger capacity choices
  • Optional motion detector and accelerometer for basic activity detection
  • Optional weatherproof case and compact form factor for outdoor or constrained installations

Core Features of Xirgo - XT-4500​

  • Ultra low power GPRS modem with integrated GPS for location reporting
  • Rechargeable battery controller and selectable internal battery capacities
  • Integrated cellular and GPS antennas to simplify installation
  • 32 bit microprocessor with a power management algorithm for efficient operation
  • Optional motion detector for movement based reporting
  • Optional accelerometer to detect activity patterns and movement events
  • Optional weatherproof enclosure for outdoor deployments
  • Extensive inputs and outputs for integration with external signals and accessories

How These Features Work with Plaspy​

Plaspy ingests location and status reports from compatible trackers like the XT-4500 to provide centralized visibility and operational awareness. Plaspy’s platform displays location history, movement events, and device status so teams can monitor remote assets over time.

  • Reports from the XT-4500 can be received by Plaspy for location tracking and status monitoring
  • Motion detector and accelerometer events appear as movement or activity events within Plaspy
  • Battery and power state reported by the device translate into device online or low power status in Plaspy
  • Inputs and outputs can be reflected as discrete status indicators in the Plaspy device view
  • The XT-4500 can be configured to report to Plaspy’s ingestion endpoint and Plaspy will automatically detect the device protocol

Typical Use Cases​

  • High value asset tracking where external power is intermittent or unavailable
  • Container and trailer monitoring for transport and logistics
  • Motorcycle tracking with compact form factor and optional weatherproofing
  • Remote equipment and seasonal asset management with rechargeable battery support
  • Mobile resource management for occasional reporting and long standby intervals

Feature Availability Notes​

  • Optional features such as motion detector, accelerometer, battery capacity, and weatherproof case may be available only on certain SKUs or as factory or field options
  • Firmware and hardware revisions can change reported behaviors, available settings, and power profiles
  • Installation type and wiring affect which inputs and outputs are usable and which accessories can be attached
  • Regional cellular variants or carrier provisioning may affect connectivity in some markets
  • For device specific wiring diagrams, firmware release notes, and accessory compatibility consult the manufacturer documentation

Why Use Plaspy with These Features​

Using Plaspy with the XT-4500 helps organizations consolidate location and basic status reporting from low power, intermittently powered assets into a single operational view. Plaspy provides historical tracking, movement visibility, and status indicators that make it easier to schedule maintenance, detect unauthorized movement, or manage dispersed equipment from a central interface.
