Global Positioning Systems (GPS)
Global positioning is supported on all Simoco SRM/SRP series mobile and portable radios. GPS functionality can be ordered as a factory fitted option or at any stage in the future as a field plug-in option.
PA-LMGPS
This is a fully self contained Speaker Microphone that includes a miniature GPS receiver and antenna. An optional Man Down version also contains an additional sensor to detect a Man Down event.
These microphones plug directly into any SRP9100 series portable without the need for internal hardware modifications or changes. The microphone can be used to provide a major improvement to the health and safety of workers and is especially useful to those who are operating in a lone worker environment.
With these microphones fitted to the portable, radio users can:
- Remotely locate a portable radio user via GPS positioning using the standard data facilities of the radio
- GPS data can be sent to a host computer as a numeric text file, or displayed using an appropriate software-mapping package such as the Simoco AVL.
- Report GPS positions automatically on PTT release, poll from the base or automatically upon Emergency/Alarm event.
- Report emergency situations using the programmable orange recessed button
MA- ASIGF
This GPS option board can be fitted to the common transceiver platform of the SRM9000 range in the vacant expansion slot inside the radio housing. This means the GPS receiver is protected and powered as an integrated unit within the radio for increased reliability. The board also adds a serial port that can be used to connect third party devices such as a Mobile Data Terminal or Mobile Computer/Peripheral.
- All GPS data display and handling functions are as described for the portable radio.
- The GPS option board operates on either conventional or trunked (MPT1327) radio networks.
