LOCATION

Module	Nordic nRF9160 internal GPS
Constellation	GPS
Tracking Sensitivity	-155dBM
*Location Accuracy	~3m CEP, 50%, GPS, Open sky
GNSS Assistance	GPS predicted ephemeris data for greater sensitivity and position accuracy
Low Noise Amplifier	GPS signals are boosted by a low-noise amplifier (LNA) allowing operation in low signal
Cell Tower Location	Optional cell tower positioning (planned)

 

POWER

Rechargeable Battery	3500mAh LiPo rechargeable battery
Input Voltage	6-28V DC (max) For continuous operation at high temperatures and high output load currents we recommend an input voltage of 12V or higher.
Self-Resetting Fuse	Built-in self-resetting fuse makes installation simple and safe
Solar Power	Designed to optionally use an external 12V solar panel, 5W or higher
Maximum Power Requirement	4W excluding external sensor power draw

 

MECHANICS / DESIGN

Dimensions	183 x 119 x 39 mm (7.20 x 4.68 x 1.54″)
Weight	TBD
Housing	Non-branded housing for optional white-labeling
IP/IK Rating	Ultra-rugged and waterproof IP68 and IK08-rated housing ensures the Hawk can withstand impact, fine dust, and brief submersion
Installation	Multiple installation options for securing the device with screws, bolts, cable ties, rivets, and more. Includes 2 cable glands to allow for waterproof cable entry to the housing.
Operating Temperature	-20°C to +60°C (connected to external power) At < -10°C and > +45°C the internal backup battery will not be charged as a safety precaution due to the dangers associated with charging batteries at extreme temperatures.
Cellular Antenna	Internal or External
GPS Antenna	Internal
3-Axis Accelerometer	3-Axis Accelerometer to detect tampering (planned)
Diagnostic LED	2 Diagnostic LEDs and Push Button for testing and operational status
Flash Memory	Store months of records if device is out of cellular coverage
On-Board Temperature	The device reports internal temperature and prevents the internal battery from charging in extreme temperatures. Internal temperature provides an indication of ambient temperature but may not always be precise.

 

INTERFACES

Digital Inputs	1 x Digital Input with configurable pull up/pull down 0-40V DC input range On/Off thresholds: On >2V, Off <1V Can be used for pulse counting (max 40Hz)
Plugin Board	The versatile and flexible Hawk architecture caters for plug-in cards that define the 9 inputs/outputs, offering limitless options for interfacing to sensors. See the current card list below or contact us to discuss your requirements.

 

SMARTS

Auto-APN	Auto-APN allows the device to analyze the SIM card and select the correct APN details from a list that is pre-loaded in the device’s firmware
Battery Life and Voltage Monitoring	LiPo battery and external voltage readings for “Battery Low” and “Power Loss” alerts
Task Management	Powerful task management allows you to schedule tasks or run tasks based on sensor thresholds and events

 

DEVICE MANAGEMENT

Flexible Configuration	Configure sensor and position update rates
Device Management Platform	Manage, monitor, configure, debug, update, and restart devices remotely from our cloud-based device management system
Configuration App	Configurable with DM-Link provisioning tool

 

INTEGRATION
