Magnum MT-400: GPS Tracker Review

When it comes to corporations or large enterprises, It is better to pay attention to the improved model-GPS tracker Magnum MT-400. The element base of the MT-400 is similar to the MT-300, except for a few points that may be very important for more efficient use of vehicle monitoring.

Major improvements have been made to the power system in order to achieve maximum protection against impulse noise and overvoltages in the vehicle’s on-board network. In the power supply circuits of the Magnum MT400, special TVS-diodes with a pulse power of 5kV are used. These diodes provide guaranteed blocking of any surges in the supply voltage with amplitudes above 42V and are capable of withstanding impulse currents up to 300A. Due to this, the trackers are protected from the supply of alternating voltage to the busbars up to ~ 220/380V. If at the time of high voltage, the tracker will be outside the coverage area of the GSM network, information about the place and time of such an action will be recorded in the device’s memory.

If you look closely, you can see small, highly sensitive optical sensors for opening the case, which operate in the infrared and visible light ranges. It should be noted that the opening of the case on either side is clearly recorded by the system and transmitted to the server.

It's hard not to notice the battery connected to the system, with a total capacity of 1500 mAh. In addition to this, progressive element base, pre-processing and data compression allow the MT400 trackers to work in active mode from the built-in battery for over 72 hours.

The Magnum MT-400 GPS tracker has universal outputs for controlling engine blocking, which provide remote (via the tracking server or via SMS) and automatic (leaving geographic zones) engine blocking. Additionally, 3 external universal inputs with 10-bit ADC for connecting security loops, temperature sensors, fuel level sensors and many other devices, which provide short-term periodic supply of supply voltages to standard fuel level sensors of cars to ensure control of refueling and fuel discharges, are added. number, and with the ignition off.

Now let's talk about the price. The pricing policy is very competitive and will pleasantly please any buyer, since with all the above advantages in general, for the maximum version you need to pay only 1500 UAH, which is very democratic. It is difficult to find similar devices of foreign manufacturers, because with such a "snap" they simply do not exist, and the closest analogues are two, or even more, times more expensive!
