NAL Iridium 9602-LP
- Ultra-low power consumption Iridium satellite tracker
- The interval can be changed remotely while the unit is in the field
- 2-way communications
Description
The 9602-LP is a pocket-size, low-cost, satellite tracker designed to operate with the Iridium low-Earth orbit satellite network. It is a self-contained unit relying on an internal micro-controller/GPS receiver for operation. The 9602-LP measures 2.7” x 2.2” x 0.9”, weighs less than 5 ounces and can be attached to high value, un-tethered or non-powered assets such as shipping containers, barges, railcars, trailers, buoys or even to a person. It is also being used by the militaries to track environmentally demanding platforms including helicopters, fixed wing aircraft, unmanned aerial vehicles, rockets, high altitude balloons, ships, speed-boats, ground vehicles and hand-emplaced and air-deployed remote sensors.
The 9602-LP has the following features :
- Standby current of less than 65µA
- Wide input voltage range from 5V to 32V
- Internal motion sensor
- Two RS232 level I/Os for sensor interfaces
- Seven TTL/CMOS level I/Os for sensor interfaces
- GPS sensitivity of –160dBm
- Programmed for either commercial or DoD gateway
- Supports NAL Research and PECOS formats
The 9602-LP can send either a standard or a 256-bit AES encrypted GPS report at a pre-programmed interval ranging from once every four seconds to once every seven days. The interval can be changed remotely while the unit is in the field. There is an available serial port that can be used to communicate with an external sensor or data terminal equipment (DTE) such as a PDA. There are also seven discrete I/Os for external sensor interfaces as well.
Emergency Use
The 9602-LP has a guarded Emergency switch to alert the recipient of an emergency situation as well as to indicate proper operation of the tracker. It has five LEDs providing the status of power input, GPS fix, Iridium connection, SBD transmission and emergency alert.
