Advantage Pressure Pro of Harrisonville, Mo., has partnered with Portman Securities to integrate its tire pressure monitoring systems with Portman's tracking devices, allowing both companies to offer users a fully integrated telematics package.
The systems are complete with GPS tracking, personnel tracking, driving behavior reports, cargo temperature and door monitoring, route optimization, work order fulfillment, scheduled maintenance, tire pressure monitoring and more. Using GPRS and GSM/SMS messaging, the integrated systems allow users to monitor and track all types of vehicles.
Adding the PressurePro tire pressure sensing technology has allowed Portman to enhance its TLU - 200ST Trailer Tracking System to now include tire pressure sensor information, as well as temperature and door sensor information with the data that the system provides. It also provides location, time, device id, speed, motion, and bearing information. The system is Solar Powered GPS/GPRS/SMS and is all inclusive.
All components and antennas are inside the tracker, which allows for easy mounting on the top of a trailer. All external sensor communication, including a keypad for the truck cab to identify itself and send duty on/off information to the trailer tracking system, is wireless.
