SolarNet CAN™
Part #77-7571 US/EU
INTRODUCTION
The SolarNet CAN™ 4G LTE Asset Tracking Gateway from Phillips Connect is a vehicle tracking device that combines GPS location with LTE and Bluetooth. SolarNet CAN monitors vehicle and asset functions and sends that data to a cloud-based Remote Listening System for tracking and analysis. A built-in backup battery, plus a solar panel for charging, allow SolarNet CAN to provide health and location reports while the asset is parked and not connected to main power.
The SolarNet CAN Gateway appears to the user of a server application as a single endpoint device. It can be queried, updated, and configured either through a serial connection or an over-the air (OTA) LTE IP connection. SolarNet CAN presents itself over the connections as an enhanced cellular modem with attached functional elements. These elements include:
- GPS location engine
- General Purpose I/O (GPIO) pins
- CAN Communication (optional with harness)
- BLE 5.2
The following is a typical application scenario:
HARDWARE FEATURES
The SolarNet CAN Gateway ships from the factory pre-configured for a specific set of functions and can be reconfigured and commissioned in the field, while providing support for external control through a Phillips Connect proprietary set of commands. Supported features include the following:
