thanks for all your inputs mga kuya..

i've already ordered this gadget online ...
Mini Spy Vehicle Realtime Tracker For GSM GPRS GPS System Tracking Device TK102



looks like a M109

i hope this functions like M109 too.

I have a problem with this tracker. I accidentally press the SOS and it send text message "help me!" every 3 minutes. I could not stop it. The manual says that to stop send SMS "help me! to the tracker that I did but still it won't stop sending the SOS message to my cp.

Is there any other way to stop it?

did you try sending "help me!" without the quotations?

or you can maybe remove the unit's battery and see if it resets itself.

i can confirm this as i have the same unit. you just enter the texted coordinates in google earth, google map or mapsource if you prefer.

oh btw, i think it also has a feature wherein you can hear the conversation inside the vehicle. just make sure your wife doesn't use it on you.

nice one kuya pokz

oh btw, my two sets of GPS tracker finally arrived yesterday from hong kong (i ordered it online)...

did some reading on the manual and had a dry run with my messenger...

my initial reviews
- easy to use indeed
- as advertised - supports non server based location (you can use it even if you're not online) tried it on google earth pa lang as i dont know how to input coordinates in mapsource
- easy (for the second time) commands to follow
- this is a really no-nonsense simple yet techie gadget

hmmmm, i know, i will retain one unit and sell the other to my big brother

ONE question kuya pokz, how do i input coordinates in mapsource?

sorry, can't seem to figure out how

Yes without quotation but I can not stop it, so I removed the battery.

I can do that using the M109. All I have to do is call the sim card number of the GPS tracker and it will text back the location.

sir can you give hints on how to activate its realtime tracking? TIA

got it already

i have a real time tracker the tk 102 0r 103.

you need to have a platform to monitor online your unit, sending or calling the sim inserted to the unit will just give you the coordinate, speed, etc that you need to plot it in your mapsource/ge to view location. texting and calling the unit for location report will make your budget much lighter coz it dont need internet subscription.

it would be good if you use a passive gps unit like the columbus v900. it can store more than a months of tracks

[docsamcruz]

try to install the free plaform, open gts. this will save you from the montly/yearly subscription of the platform for online monitoring

Hi doc, can you give me specific free platform you are using with your 103?
Also, what's the meaning of "gts" ?
TIA

[docsamcruz]

gts is global tracking system. what i meant is that if you want to shy away with monthly/annual platform usage fee, u can try installing open gts. it is an open source real time tracking system that is expandable which means that you can add number of tracking units like as in fleet management system but you need a computer programmer to install it.

real time monitoringin its true sense is really expensive. better go for passive monitoring unless your doing it for business that would make it cost effective.
