CAREU - U1 Lite+ LTE

The CAREU U1 Lite+ LTE GPS tracker is a compact, cost-effective vehicle telematics device purpose-built for fleet management and video-enabled telematics. Plaspy compatible out of the box, the U1 Lite+ brings reliable GPS/GLONASS/QZSS position tracking together with OBD II/CAN diagnostics, fuel monitoring and advanced sensor integration so operators can get real-time tracking and telemetry from mixed fleets with minimal integration effort.

Designed for use in commercial vehicles, heavy trucks and refrigerated fleets, the U1 Lite+ LTE family supports LTE Cat 4/Cat 1 plus 3G/2G fallbacks and optional internal Wi‑Fi hotspot for video transmission (Cat.4 version). The device also supports remote configuration and FOTA firmware updates, making it a practical, Plaspy compatible solution for operators focused on anti-theft measures, detailed engine telemetry and scalable fleet tracking.

Key Highlights

• Plaspy compatible GPS tracker providing continuous real-time tracking and fleet management data.
• Multi-network connectivity: LTE Cat 4/Cat 1 plus 3G/2G support for broad coverage and fallback.
• Built-in GPS/GLONASS/QZSS GNSS reception and 3‑axis accelerometer for harsh event and impact detection.
• Integrated OBD II/CAN interpretation (J1939/J1708) for engine telemetry (fuel level, RPM, odometer, engine temperature).
• Advanced fuel monitoring with ultrasonic and external sensor support for accurate fuel reporting.
• Video telematics-ready with optional internal Wi‑Fi hotspot for video transmission (Cat.4 models).
• Anti-theft features including remote engine immobilization and GSM jamming detection.
• Remote configuration and FOTA via FTP for simplified device management at scale.

How It Works with Plaspy

The U1 Lite+ connects to Plaspy to deliver position, diagnostics and sensor data in real time. Once installed in a vehicle, the tracker uses its cellular link (LTE/UMTS/HSPA/GPRS/EDGE) to stream GNSS fixes, CAN/OBD telemetry and sensor inputs to the Plaspy platform for live monitoring, alerts and historical reporting. Plaspy reads the device’s standardized messages and makes telemetry available in dashboards, geofence rules, and automated reports.

• Real-time location and telemetry updates transmitted over LTE/3G/2G or via SMS/FTP where available.
• Engine data from OBD II/CAN (fuel level, odometer, RPM, engine temperature) visible within Plaspy dashboards.
• Geofence reporting (circular and polygonal) with configurable alerts for arrivals, departures and violations.
• Fuel monitoring integration: ultrasonic and external fuel sensor readings feed fuel reports and consumption analysis.
• Remote immobilizer support for anti-theft workflows; Plaspy can trigger immobilization according to operator policies.
• Video-ready connectivity: Cat.4 models with internal Wi‑Fi hotspot support video transmission for dash cams and surveillance (video handled through Plaspy-compatible ingest or third-party integrations).
• Optional Bluetooth configuration and peripherals can be paired and surfaced to Plaspy where supported.

Technical Overview

Use Cases

• Fleet anti-theft and immobilization — remote engine immobilizer and GSM jamming detection help protect assets and enable rapid response.
• Video telematics and surveillance — Cat.4 models with Wi‑Fi hotspot support dash cam connectivity and live video for security and incident review.
• Fuel management optimization — ultrasonic fuel sensors and CAN/OBD data enable accurate fuel monitoring and consumption reporting.
• Cold-chain monitoring — 1‑Wire and analog temperature sensors support refrigerated transport and compliance tracking.
• Smart city and heavy-vehicle telematics — suitable for garbage truck tilting control, school buses, international logistics and heavy-truck diagnostics.

Why Choose This Tracker with Plaspy

When integrated with Plaspy, the CAREU U1 Lite+ delivers a balance of cost-efficiency and capability for fleets that need more than basic GPS. Its support for OBD II/CAN diagnostics brings engine telemetry (odometer, RPM, engine temperature, fuel level) into Plaspy’s fleet management workflows, while the device’s multi-network connectivity and optional Wi‑Fi video hotspot make it a practical choice for video-enabled telematics. Anti-theft functions including remote immobilizer control and GSM jamming detection add security layers that fleet managers can automate through Plaspy policies.

Plaspy compatible by design, the U1 Lite+ minimizes integration overhead: standardized telemetry feeds, geofence reporting and FOTA via FTP allow operators to scale deployments across vehicles and regions. Whether your priority is real-time tracking, detailed telemetry for maintenance and fuel monitoring, or video telematics for security and compliance, the U1 Lite+ provides the interfaces and remote management features needed to keep total cost of ownership low while delivering actionable data.
