The Locator 670 (IDU-300) from RITI Technology is a Plaspy compatible in-vehicle GPS tracker built for intelligent fleet management and reliable real-time tracking. Although this 3G IDU model is discontinued, its high-sensitivity GNSS, frequent position reporting, and wide peripheral support make it a strong fit for Plaspy deployments that require telemetry, anti-theft monitoring, and extended sensor integration.
Designed for fleet managers who need accurate mileage, battery-voltage monitoring, and multi-sensor telemetry, the Locator 670 forwards GNSS and sensor data to Plaspy for live vehicle visibility, exception alerts, and historical reporting. Its support for temperature sensors, fuel-level inputs, DVR and dispatch panels enables Plaspy-compatible workflows for cold-chain, logistics, and safety-critical vehicle operations.
Key Highlights
- Plaspy compatible real-time tracking with position updates as frequent as every 15 seconds for responsive fleet visibility.
- High-sensitivity GNSS (MediaTek MT3339) for stronger satellite lock and better performance in urban canyons.
- Per-second mileage calculation for more accurate odometer and route analytics in Plaspy reports.
- Battery-voltage monitoring to detect low-voltage conditions and reduce vehicle start failures.
- Extensive peripheral support (temperature sensors, fuel-level sensors, DVRs, SOS, RFID, TPMS, and more) for expanded telemetry and cold-chain monitoring.
- Local data buffering (4 MB memory, ~30,000 records) with automatic uplink when cellular recovers — ideal for intermittent connectivity.
- Remote diagnostics and firmware update support to simplify maintenance and keep units Plaspy-ready.
How It Works with Plaspy
When integrated with Plaspy, the Locator 670 delivers continuous GNSS positioning and multi-sensor telemetry to the Plaspy platform for live maps, alerts, and telematics reporting. Data from the unit’s internal GNSS, voltage monitoring, and connected peripherals is packaged and uploaded over cellular networks to Plaspy, where it becomes actionable information for dispatch, exception management, and analytics.
- Real-time location and telemetry updates (position reporting up to every 15 seconds).
- Per-second mileage and odometer data for accurate trip and utilization reports in Plaspy.
- Battery-voltage monitoring to generate low-voltage warnings and prevent vehicle start failures.
- Temperature sensor inputs and fuel-level sensor support for cold-chain and fuel monitoring workflows.
- SOS and external peripheral events (DVR, RFID, i-Button, TPMS, barcode readers) forwarded to Plaspy for alarms, event logs, and compliance records.
- Local data buffering ensures no loss of records: stored locally and automatically uploaded when connectivity is available.

Use Cases
- Fleet management and dispatch — real-time tracking, per-second mileage and route auditing for trucks and service vehicles.
- Cold-chain and temperature-controlled deliveries — use the temperature sensor inputs and Plaspy alerts to protect perishable cargo.
- Vehicle safety and public-safety fleets — SOS event reporting, DVR integration, and telemetry for police, fire, and emergency vehicles.
- Fuel and asset monitoring — integrate fuel-level sensors and RFID/i-Button readers to reduce shrinkage and track high-value assets.
- MDVR and telematics integrations — RS-232 ports and multiple I/O allow DVRs and voice modules to feed synchronized event data to Plaspy.
Why Choose This Tracker with Plaspy
The Locator 670 (IDU-300) offers fleet operators a proven 3G telematics platform that pairs well with Plaspy for real-time tracking, telemetry, and anti-theft monitoring. Its high-sensitivity GNSS and frequent position updates improve location accuracy on the Plaspy map, while per-second mileage and battery-voltage monitoring deliver cleaner analytics and preventative alerts. Extensive peripheral support means you can extend Plaspy workflows to temperature monitoring, fuel tracking, DVR events, and dispatch panel data without complex custom integrations.
Note: the Locator 670 (IDU-300) is discontinued. For new large-scale or long-term Plaspy deployments, evaluate current IDU-series models with modern cellular standards. However, for legacy fleets or mixed-deployment environments where the IDU-300 remains in service, it continues to provide reliable telemetry, local buffering, and Plaspy-compatible data feeds that support effective fleet management, safety, and cold-chain operations.
