The VT1000 (4G WiFi VT1000) is a professional-grade vehicle GPS tracker designed for fleet management, passenger connectivity and vehicle security. Plaspy compatible out of the box, the VT1000 combines high-precision GNSS positioning, multi-band LTE/3G/GSM communications and an integrated WiFi hotspot so fleets can deliver passenger internet access while maintaining real-time location and telemetry through Plaspy.
The unit supports real-time tracking and rich telemetry — including engine on/off detection, door status, analog fuel and temperature inputs, and remote engine cut-off for emergency immobilization. With support for up to 20+ WiFi cameras, SD card recording and RS232 camera interfacing, the VT1000 is suited to mixed-use fleets that require anti-theft safeguards, video evidence capture and operational insights integrated into the Plaspy platform.
Key Highlights
- Plaspy compatible GPS tracker with LTE/4G (FDD & TDD), 3G and GSM for reliable global connectivity.
- Integrated WiFi hotspot to serve passengers and connect 20+ WiFi cameras for real-time video monitoring.
- Comprehensive vehicle telemetry: engine on/off detection, door open/close, harsh braking/acceleration alarms and geo-fence alerts.
- Fuel monitoring and temperature inputs via 4 analog channels for operational and fuel monitoring insights.
- Emergency features including SOS button and remote engine cut-off relay for immobilizer functionality and anti-theft response.
- On-board storage (SD card) and 4MB flash for >26,000 waypoints to ensure continuity during temporary network loss.
- Industrial-grade design with wide operating temperature range and synchronized GPS time for accurate telemetry timestamps.
How It Works with Plaspy
The VT1000 transmits position and vehicle telemetry to Plaspy using standard channels supported by the device: TCP/UDP over GPRS/4G and SMS where needed. Once registered on Plaspy, the tracker supplies frequent location updates, alarms and sensor readings so dispatchers and fleet managers can act in real time. Plaspy aggregates these inputs into maps, alerts and reports for fleet management, anti-theft response and compliance tracking.
- Real-time location and telemetry updates via TCP/UDP (GPRS/4G) and SMS as a backup.
- Engine on/off status, ignition detection and door open/close events for ignition and door monitoring.
- Analog fuel and temperature monitoring for fuel monitoring and temperature-sensitive cargo.
- Remote immobilizer control through the built-in engine cut-off relay for emergency engine shutdown.
- Video and photo evidence: camera photo logging with location and driving data; SD storage for video/photo archiving (video streams may be managed via the device’s WiFi/PC/mobile platform alongside Plaspy telemetry).

Why Choose This Tracker with Plaspy
Choosing the VT1000 as a Plaspy compatible GPS tracker gives fleet operators a single device that combines robust real-time tracking, rich telemetry and passenger-facing WiFi/video capabilities. The VT1000’s multi-band LTE/3G/GSM support ensures connectivity across regions, while the device’s analog inputs, digital I/O and engine cut-off relay provide actionable control points for anti-theft and ignition control.
When paired with Plaspy, the VT1000 delivers consolidated telemetry (location, ignition, fuel monitoring, door/alarms), alerting (geo-fence, over-speed, SOS) and historical reporting for operational visibility. The VT1000’s on-board storage and SD video/photo archiving complement Plaspy’s telemetry by preserving evidence when network conditions are variable. For fleets seeking reliability, scalability and full-spectrum vehicle security — including remote immobilizer capability and integrated video options — the VT1000 provides a practical, Plaspy compatible solution.
