The MT08B Portable Motorcycle GPS Tracker is a compact, waterproof GPS tracker designed for reliable real-time tracking and anti-theft protection. Small enough for discreet motorcycle or small-vehicle installation, the MT08B delivers accurate positioning using the SIRF-Star III chipset and reports location and telemetry over global GSM networks. As a Plaspy compatible device, it integrates with Plaspy’s platform using SMS or GPRS data for live maps, alerts, and historical reporting.
The MT08B combines fleet management essentials and vehicle security features in a matchbox-sized enclosure (62 x 50 x 22 mm). Built-in motion detection, geo-fence and over-speed alerts, power-cut notifications, remote engine immobilizer support and two-way listen-in make it a versatile GPS tracker for fleet managers, motorcycle owners, and security-conscious operators who want Plaspy compatible real-time tracking and telemetry.

How It Works with Plaspy
When deployed with Plaspy, the MT08B sends location and telemetry via SMS or GPRS to Plaspy’s servers where the data is processed for live tracking, alerts and historical reports. Plaspy displays position, motion and I/O events on maps and dashboards, enabling fleet managers and vehicle owners to act quickly on theft alerts, overspeed events, and power-cut notifications. Configuration is handled through the device’s command set and the vendor’s tracking platform; Plaspy receives standard location and status messages for immediate use.
- Real-time location and telemetry updates: latitude/longitude, speed, timestamp and satellite status delivered to Plaspy.
- Motion and security alerts: geo-fence breach, over-speed and motion-detected notifications sent in real time.
- Power-cut and backup battery reporting: mains/power loss events and backup battery status reported to Plaspy for anti-theft monitoring.
- Ignition/engine and I/O events: two inputs and one output convey engine/door/fuel sensor status and accept remote immobilizer commands.
- SOS and two-way listen-in: emergency SOS signaling and voice monitoring requests can be logged and acted on within Plaspy.
