DirectTrack GPS Reviews

DirectTrack operates using an innovative hybrid of technologies, including GPS satellites and patented microburst cell technology. Each time you communicate with the transceiver in the vehicle, there is a two way flow of information.

* When accessing DirectTrack via the Internet using any standard browser, you send out a signal. That signal then travels to the cell phone tower nearest your current location.

* Microburst technology operates on existing cellular networks to send and receive data packets, tapping into unused channels on the back side of standard cell frequencies.

* The GPS satellites then locate and communicate with the DirectTrack transceiver on board your vehicle, which exchanges information on location and speed, as well as executing any commands you've sent.

* The cell towers then relay the signal back to you via the exact means by which it was sent.

A triumph of solutions-based engineering, the DirectTrack MLU device delivers an extensive menu of dynamic features. Once stealthily secured inside a vehicle it enables its' owner to monitor and control the vehicle remotely.

Employing a constellation of satellites, and patented microburst technology - the true value of DirectTrack is evidenced in its accessibility. The reporting and alert functions are accessible 24/7 on the Internet, or communicate with your vehicle by email, cell phone, or pager. Relax with peace of mind, knowing that your family, vehicle, pets, and/or cargoes are safe and sound with an extra set of eyes watching over them from above.
