Description of the ELOC3 solution
This chapter describes the ELOC3 device and the back-end system and is intended to give a general
understanding of the components.
For installation instructions, refer to Chapter 3.
2.1
System description
The ELOC3 is a rugged battery powered locator to track objects, vehicles and equipment. Due to its
extremely long-lasting batteries, a typical life cycle of 10 years is achieved with one locating / day.
The innovative design of the ELOC3 combines extremely low quiescent current with modern sensor
and radio technology, which can be adapted to a wide range of requirements by means of
configurable operating modes. In the sensor monitor version, external signals and sensors can also
be integrated. The internal sensors detect
I. acceleration
II. shock
III. temperature
IV. illumination and
V. tilt and rotation.
The cloud platform h2n Track-it
®
provides the user with a complete system consisting of sensors
and application platform that leaves nothing to be desired and can be seamlessly connected to
existing systems via REST-API and message forwarding. The platform allows the configuration of
the devices, supports location and alerting via SMS and emails. By using the Sigfox LPWAN
technology, the user does not need any SIM cards or roaming, the entire administration of
operating parameters and roaming is controlled by the h2n cloud application. The following Figure
gives and overview of the ELOC3 concept.
