Getting your tracker positioned just right is crucial for top-notch tracking. In this guide, we'll show you how to place your Logistimatics tracker for optimal results, whether you're tucking it inside your vehicle or securing it outside. We'll consider network signals, the surroundings, and where to put your tracker to boost its accuracy and dependability.


Placement Recommendations Outside the Vehicle

  • Secure Attachment: Attach the tracker to a flat metal surface for a strong magnetic hold.

  • Weather Protection: Position the tracker in a spot that avoids direct exposure to rain and other elements, typically under the vehicle.

  • Avoid Heat Sources: The Tracker has an operating temperature. Keep the tracker away from areas that can get hot, such as the exhaust system.

  • Recommended Location: The underside rear of the vehicle is ideal, offering protection and a stable mounting area.

Important Note

For live audio functionality, the tracker must be placed inside the vehicle.


Placement Tips Inside the Vehicle

  • Live Audio Quality: Place the tracker close to the audio source, avoiding obstructions for clearer sound.

  • Non-Metal Mounting: If mounting on a non-metal surface, use an alternative method to secure the tracker.

  • Signal Reception: Avoid placing the tracker in the trunk or any metal enclosure that may block the signal.

Please refer to the provided graphics for visual assistance on inside vehicle mounting.


💡Tip

To get the best from your tracker, put it where it's safe, can 'hear' clearly, and won't get wet. This helps it work better and gives you the info you need.
