Trafficmaster is at the forefront of providing real-time motoring solutions for both business and the customer. Its solutions include satellite navigation, Trackstar stolen vehicle tracking, fleet tracking and live traffic information. Together these can be combined to help ease the stress for drivers on today’s roads.

Trackstar has launched The TM470R – a real-time GPS tracking system designed for Stolen Vehicle Tracking of Plant and Agricultural Machinery. It features the latest GPS and GSM technology that give increased tracking sensitivity and fast wireless communication anywhere in the world! The TM470R provides a range of connectivity including digital inputs, relay outputs and serial connections including J1708 (RS485), J1939 (CAN) and RS232. The TM470R comes with an internal battery that provides more than 8 hours of continuous tracking data independent of vehicle power. Featuring a Telenor Sim, the TM47R also complies with IP66 and IP67.

“Key features that set the TM470R apart are that it is ruggedised with a toughened outer casing and therefore fit for purpose in the Plant and Agricultural machinery arena, as well as offering integrated European cover in over 50 countries,” said Andrew Morrison, Director of Trackstar Sales.

Nearly 100,000 plant and agricultural machines are stolen a year in the UK. It is widely recognised that this costs both the owner and the insurance company time and money and is upsetting for everyone involved.

Trackstar, Trafficmaster’s stolen vehicle tracking for plant and agricultural machinery solution helps combat the risk of machines being stolen following the theft of the keys. 

If a machine is moved without the keys, a silent alert is sent to Trackstar’s Secure Control Centre and tracking is immediately activated. The Control Centre liaises direct with police authorities across the UK and Europe, providing them with the speed, location and direction of the stolen vehicle.

Trackstar is fully accredited by Thatcham, the UK’s insurance industry body, as a stolen vehicle tracking system. This means that the product meets set standards in its hardware, functionality and all of its processes. Not only that but Trackstar’s installation engineers also have to be independently vetted and registered so that they are qualified to fit covert security systems.
