LoRaWAN GPS Tracker kit with Solar Panel with GNSS ZOE-M8Q Module

Product Description

This kit is a GPS tracker with a sensor to detect location change every set time interval. Optional battery backup ( battery not included ) with solar panel built-in on the enclosure is used for recharging to ensure uninterrupted data transmission. Possible applications are tracking of cargo, vehicles, and vessels for marine traffic.

Setup: Localization data are acquired with a GPS module and the location information is sent to a LoRaWan® server when the sensor changes location.

This product includes a mounting plate with a highly optimized integrated antenna for BLE and LoRaWAN. Please follow our mounting guide for the correct connection of the antennas to the WisBlock Core module.

Note: If a non-rechargable battery is used with WisBlock Base Board it has to be unplugged before connecting the USB cable to the port on the board in order to configure the device. Not doing so might damage the battery and cause damage to the battery and board.
