New features for our M2M SIM cards
We’ve launched our new M2M SIM Cards dashboard, designed to give you greater transparency, and control, increasing the reliability for your live tracking services.
Access the SIM cards dashboard here: https://racemap.com/admin/sim-cards
Key Features:
- Activation & Deactivation: Instantly activate or terminate individual SIM cards at any time.
- Tracker Association: View the GPS tracker name associated with each SIM card.
- Data Usage Monitoring: The "Data Usage" column shows an estimate of the current month's traffic consumption. Please note, exact figures are available with delay, as real-time data from the SIM card provider is not available.
SMS messaging with RACEMAP M2M SIM cards
Our platform now offers the option to send commands via SMS, offering reliable communication even when your trackers lose connection with the server.
- Default Transport: By default, messages to GPS trackers are sent via TCP. However, if a device uses our M2M SIM card, you have the option to send commands via SMS.
- Sending SMS Messages: If a device loses its connection to the RACEMAP server, you can still send critical commands like reboot or request for the latest location via SMS. Giving you more options to keep offline devices usable.
