BANDIT is networked into the GSM grid of cellular giant MTN - 5 000 towers covering one million square kilometres of South African terrain. Access to the dedicated SMS Server means the added advantage of Priority Messaging. Not only does GSM constitute the undisputed medium of the future, but in terms of Vehicle Tracking it furthermore meets all demands of the country's stringent Insurance Underwriters by facilitating active, two-way digital dialogue between the installed Activtrac / High Alert / Executive unit and Bandit's 24-Hour Control Centre.

With regards to Fleet Management, here too is GSM the communications medium of choice, and it furthermore allows for International Roaming provided that a GSM network exists in the country of destination. In all cases, the unlikely scenario of a vehicle exceeding its grid will result in messages being queued then sent once the network is re-entered. Many other tracking systems merely 'lose' data under these circumstances.

Active Two-Way communication via GSM enables a host of essential features:

• High Alert: Early-Warning notification of Static Theft to vehicle owner and Bandit 
• Self-Initiated Health Checks: System alerts Bandit to any unlikely malfunction 
• Power Source Tampering Alert: Automatic Backup Battery Activation 
• Quadrant Location: The Vehicle Finder 
• Border Alert: Approaching any of our international boundaries

All of the above messages are accompanied by crucial Vehicle Location Data.
