Product Description

The KCS TraceME TM-3201 is an industrial IoT tracking unit, designed for container tracking applications.

The module can be equipped with different optional features: LTE Cat-M1 / NB-IoT modem, GNSS, NFC, LoRa, Wi-Fi-sniffing, Bluetooth Smart (BLE) and proprietary RF, acceleration-, temperature/humidity, pressure - and tamper sensor.

The module provides reliable, optimized connectivity and coverage for the next generation 4G LTE Cat-M1 and NB-IoT networks and offers seamless fall back to 2G networks.

TM-3201 contains a tamper contact for fraudly removal alert and is equipped with LoRa-based, Wi-Fi sniffing, GNSS and beacon positioning, offering excellent both indoor and outdoor traceability.

The robust IP68 enclosure, combined with more than 10 years of standby battery lifetime enables the integration of TraceME into a variety of IoT applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the physical dimensions of the TM-3201 / P3D2 TraceME device?
The TM-3201 / P3D2 measures 138 x 72 x 22mm, perfect for OEM integration and flexible deployment possibilities.
Can the TM-3201 / P3D2 operate in industrial or extreme temperature environments?
Yes, the device provides robust temperature tolerance. It is rated to support an operating temperature range of -20°C to +70°C, ensuring stability in outdoor conditions.
What is the total weight of the device?
The TM-3201 / P3D2 weighs 12 grams. This makes the module ideal for lightweight tracking and tracing solutions.
What are the indoor outdoor geolocation options of the TM-3201 / P3D2 device?
GNSS Using the GNSS orbit satellite network, the geographical position is determined. Wi-Fi sniffing The module listens to the Wi-Fi access points available in the vicinity of the device, and extracts MAC addresses and signal strength of those access points. Based upon that information, the location can be determined (heatmap or localization service provider). LoRa localization The localization functionality in LoRa based networks provides outdoor geolocation accuracy for static devices of typically 50 meters and can be further improved (both indoor and outdoor) up to 1.5 meters by on-site beacon technology (RF and BLE). Beacon technology The module listens to on-site (RF/BLE) beacons. From the beacon location and beacon ID, the position can be determined using triangulation or beacon location. FSK FSK (Frequency Shift Keying) is being used to transmit its own location or to receive information from another FSK beacon. When used for listening to a specific FSK beacon range, the position of the device can be determined measuring the signal strength of 1-way FSK protocol. A special FSK-sniffer with OLED display is available, please contact sales for details.
What are the optional features of the TraceME TM-3201 / P3D2 device?
The module can be equipped with different optional features: LTE Cat-M1 / NB-IoT modem, GNSS, NFC, Sigfox, LoRa including Wi-Fi positioning, Bluetooth Smart (BLE) and proprietary RF, acceleration-, temperature/humidity sensor and optional external I2C sensor interfacing. The module can be fully customized dependent of the application
How does the TM-3201 / P3D2 handle connectivity?
The device provides reliable, optimized connectivity and coverage for the next generation 4G LTE Cat-M1 and NB-IoT networks and offers seamless fall back to 2G networks. In areas without network coverage, position-data and events are stored in memory (default up to 4,000 positions, optional up to 60,000 positions). As soon as communication is restored, all information can be transmitted
Does the device have fysical removal protection
The TM-3201 contains an light sensor for tamper functionality. When the enclosure is (fraudly) removed from the protected asset, the module will send a tamper notification.
What are the power options for the TM-3201 / P3D2 device?
Depending on the application, different battery types and capacities might be required, which can be provided separately. By default, the module is equipped with a non-rechargeable battery.
What is the typical battery lifetime of the TM-3201 / P3D2 device?
The KCS TraceME battery-powered modules are known for their long battery life. In a typical application the battery life of the TM-3201 / P3D2 is estimated at 3 years. This can be extended up to 5 years by reducing the frequency of the GPS updates.
What is the IP rating of the TM-3201 / P3D2 device?
The TM-3201 / P3D2 has an IP67 rating, which means it is dust-tight and protected against water immersion.
