Product Description

The KCS TraceME TM-4202 is an industrial IoT tracking unit, designed for long-life tracking and measuring of asset behaviour. Typical application is to know the exact location of a cable drum and how much cable is left.

The TM-4202 contains a tamper contact for fraudly removal alert and is equipped with LoRa-based, GNSS and beacon positioning, offering excellent both indoor and outdoor traceability.

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

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the TM-4202 / P3K3 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 +60°C, ensuring stability in critical outdoor conditions.
How does the TM-4202 handle indoor and outdoor geolocation?
Equipped with GNSS, optional beacon technology (RF and BLE), optional Wi-Fi sniffing and (where available) LoRa localization the TM-4202 provides excellent indoor and outdoor geolocation. 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 connectivity options embedded in this TraceME device?
The TM-4202 / P3K3 has LoRa EU-868MHz and GNSS.
What is the best ussecase for this device?
Cable counting on cable-reels. The module can report the total number of rotations, in both directions. When attached for example to a cable-reel the remaining total length of the cable can be calculated.
How does the TM-4202 / P3K3 handle active data privacy and security?
TraceME hardware interfaces directly with secure infrastructure without third-party bottlenecks. It natively supports advanced device-side encryption protocols enabling private, sealed data routing. All of the necessary server-side scripts to process and store data from these units are available for registered distributors and resellers. If you do not want to host data and maps yourself, you can use the hosting services of one of our partner companies.
Are firmware updates supported over-the-air (FOTA)?
Yes, TraceME units are designed with two-way communication supporting FOTA (Firmware Over The Air). This means device behavior and security protocols can be updated in the field without retrieval.
