The tracker sends location records through its active SIM and mobile network.

How fitting works

- Arrange the compatible SIM, account and tracking settings.
- Secure the tracker in a suitable position near the battery using the approved mounting arrangement.

Installation rating: 3/5 · Competent battery connection required. The image is an illustrative installation, not an electrical fitting instruction. Ask about professional fitting if you are unsure.
What the service includes
Rural Secure branded app/portal access, core SIM/data connectivity, location reporting and the agreed geofencing and movement alerts, with basic customer support. We confirm the supported alerts, reporting intervals, history retention and any extra data requirements when setting up your asset.
Power and practical limits
The tracker draws power from the equipment battery. Tell us if the machine is stored for long periods or its battery is disconnected regularly. Mobile and satellite reception affect reporting; no fixed update interval is promised until the configuration is agreed.
Installation is separately quoted. This service does not include insurer-approved S5/S7 certification, a monitored recovery team or remote immobilisation. Tracking is separate from your alarm or camera system unless an integration has been confirmed.
