STEPP III is a free configurable smart tracking device, which can be fully adapted to user requirements. Its main purpose is to act as a mobile client for various system solutions like AVL, fleet management, vehicle security and recovery. The device can operate fully autonomous and is able to interact using sensors and actors.

It can be adapted to existing tracking solutions and can be easily configured to gather or exchange relevant information with servers or users directly. An often used example is to send status reports or verbose alert messages directly via SMS to users and/or via TCP to tracking servers.

Users benefit most from combining comfort and security aspects – for example having regular voice calls as well as spy calls in emergency cases. Drivers logbook and data logging functionalities are combined in the Falcom history feature.

Geofencing can be used to report violations of predefined routes or areas (for example if a car enters or leaves a specific area/ no-go-zones).

All of these features are perfectly integrated in a device concept, which significantly reduces time-to-market and provides low cost tracking and security solutions.

Options

Internal battery Lithium Polymer: B1 / B2
battery
Stepp III may incorporate an internal battery for two different types: B1 (300 mAh) and B2 (1250 mAh). The device incorporates the necessary hardware to manage load and use, and is fully configurable.

The battery option allows the device to operate extra hours in case you do not receive principal food. Although reducing the temperature range of work that can operate, it is recommended for applications where security or the device can not be connected to a constant power supply.

CAN bus interface with high and low speed: CA / CH
Stepp III can be supplied (upon request) with a CAN interface which supports both the CAN-Bus high as the low speed

Choice (AC) Low-Speed CAN-Bus controller CAN1 (Type TJA1054A) is for use in passenger cars:
  • Compatible with ISO 11898-3 (CAN fail (low speed))
  • SAE J2411 Single-Wire CAN (SWC)

  • Supports up to 125 kbps baudrate

Option (CH) High-Speed CAN-Bus controller CANH (Type TLE6250) is for use in trucks:

  • Supports up to 1 Mbps baudrate
Using the appropriate commands PFAL, STEPPIII devices can be used in applications compatible with CAN-Bus, as it is possible to define a communication baudrate CAN identifiers and filter to extract specific data it provides. The firmware of the devices STEPPIII / FOX can store up to 10 securities and send CAN-Bus via TCP to change the status of them.
