The ST6560 is a compact OBD-II GPS tracker engineered for seamless Plaspy integration, delivering vehicle-level diagnostics and dependable location data for modern fleet operations. Plug-and-play installation into the vehicle’s 16‑pin J1962 connector makes the ST6560 an efficient choice for fleet management, anti-theft recovery and telematics projects that require Plaspy compatible hardware and rich engine telemetry.
Built for multi-network resilience and extensive vehicle protocol support, the ST6560 combines LTE Cat.M1, NB‑IoT and 2G fallback with multi-constellation GNSS and Dead Reckoning to ensure continuous, accurate real‑time tracking. With BLE 5.3 for local wireless sensors, J1939 and FMS support for heavy-duty vehicles, and deep OBD-II diagnostic access, the ST6560 provides the telemetry and vehicle signals fleet managers expect from a Plaspy compatible GPS tracker.
Key Highlights
- Plaspy compatible OBD-II GPS tracker providing plug-in vehicle diagnostics and position reporting for fleet management.
- Multi-network cellular connectivity (LTE Cat.M1, NB‑IoT + 2G fallback) for reliable real-time tracking across coverage zones.
- Multi-constellation GNSS (GPS/GLONASS/Galileo/BeiDou) with ~±2 m CEP accuracy and Dead Reckoning for tunnels and low-signal areas.
- Reads extensive engine diagnostics, diagnostic trouble codes (DTC) and vehicle identification via automatic OBD-II protocol detection.
- Supports J1939 ELD and FMS protocols—designed for heavy-duty vehicles and commercial fleet telemetry.
- Built-in BLE 5.3 for local Bluetooth sensors and accessories, expanding on-board telemetry such as temperature or cargo sensors.
- Compact form factor with backup battery, motion sensor (3-axis accelerometer + 3-axis gyroscope), and geofence capabilities (circular & polygonal).
How It Works with Plaspy
The ST6560 communicates vehicle location, diagnostics and telemetry to the Plaspy platform over cellular networks. Once installed in the vehicle’s OBD-II port and activated, the device automatically detects the vehicle’s OBD protocol, begins polling supported PIDs and J1939/FMS messages, and transmits standardized telemetry to Plaspy for real-time tracking, alerts, and reporting. Plaspy teams can use the data for live monitoring, scheduled reports, and automated incident alerts.
- Real-time location and telemetry updates sent to Plaspy for live tracking dashboards and historical playback.
- Engine diagnostics and DTC reporting—Plaspy can surface faults and maintenance triggers from the OBD-II data stream.
- J1939 ELD and FMS support for heavy vehicles, delivering engine hours, fuel-related PIDs and CAN-bus telemetry where available.
- Circular and polygonal geofence events for automated alerts on entry/exit and route compliance.
- Access to ignition-related signals and vehicle status via the standard J1962 interface; fuel monitoring and other telemetry where exposed by the vehicle’s OBD/J1939 data.
- Bluetooth sensors: pair BLE devices to the ST6560 for local data (e.g., temperature, door sensors) that syncs into Plaspy.
- Dead Reckoning and high-sensitivity GNSS ensure continuity of position reporting in tunnels or urban canyons for reliable Plaspy visualization.
