Products

Transcom has expanded the focus of its operations and products. Inline with this expansion we are now providing equipment and services under the SECUREwatch banner.

SECUREwatch offers an impressive range of Personnel & Mobile Security, OH&S and Asset Monitoring technologies available today in Australia that meet and exceed current market requirements:

 

SITEwatch

Is an advanced Wireless Emergency Alert System.for Site Security. It can be configured to send an "Emergency" Alert message via SMS and GPRS when the alert button is pressed. There is also a configurable time delay that ensures that accidental bumping of the “Alert Button” will not trigger an Alert. The device has an integrated battery backup system to handle power outages; and has an anti-tamper and anti-theft detection features.

The standard Delay is two (2) seconds. The SITEwatch unit beeps while in the "Emergency" state to indicate that an Alert message has been sent.

The SMS message can be "redistributed" to multiple recipients to ensure that the correct people are informed of any situation that the SITEwatch unit is set up to report for. The GPRS message can go to a monitoring centre so that appropriate action can be taken. Events can also go the SECUREzone Web platform for 24/7 access and reporting.


Personnel Security PS2

SECUREwatch PS2 – SECUREwatch’s latest state of the art Personnel Tracking & Security Device – utilising tri-band GSM/SMS/GPRS & 20 Channel GPS enabled mobile phone capability & audio surveillance with unique security, monitoring and tracking capabilities. Over the air configuration capability.

Ergonomically designed for the human body and perfect fit to right or left hand. SOS Panic button activation by mistake is reduced to a minimum by the button design and response. Shock resistant, using specially designed and reinforced ABS case and rubber holders.

The device can be operated in three ways;

  1) As a standalone in-house system installed at your base using our “Locator” Mapping Tool

  2) Hosting via SECUREwatch with the Locator installed onsite as a desktop (non web) mapping and alerting tool.

  3) Via a direct voice &/or data alert sent direct to SECUREwatch 24/7 monitoring centre in Perth Australia for an “acknowledgement and referral service for emergency response.

NEW   INSURANCEwatch & VEHICLEwatch

INSURANCEwatch & VEHICLEwatch are our latest combination of business solutions for “Pay As You Drive” & Vehicle Monitoring & Reporting; which is a new generation vehicle activity monitoring and tracking device specifically tailored for the “Pay as You Drive” Insurance market and the Vehicle Monitoring Market. The primary purpose of the device is to provide vehicle and driver activity information, which can be utilized to assess the risk levels associated with any given driver or vehicle.

The information includes a wide variety of usage information including mileage, fringe benefits tax reports, daily activity summary, driver behaviour (i.e. speeding, harsh braking, curves at high speed etc), accident notification and reconstruction data and a variety of consumer added value services. The unit is self installed via a simple connection to the vehicle's OBD-II port.

 

MCG1000

MCG1000 is purpose designed to be a “low operating cost” GPS Fleet Telematics device, primarily suited to the Retail, Insurance and wider Commercial markets. Though it is equally useful to a single user mass market application. The device provides comprehensive vehicle activity information and control; and is designed to assist organisations or even a single user to monitor and manage their vehicle or other 12V powered assets; e.g. a vending machine.

The MCG1000 provides basic activity monitoring, passenger and asset safety and security; and is designed to address many of the operational challenges prevalent amongst the insurance, leasing and retail fleet operations. Its low running cost design lends itself to wide fleet management applications where cost versus justification is a high consideration. See product specification in section-7 for full details.

 

MCG2000

MCG2000 Asset/Trailer Tracker – This device is a variant of the MCG3000 but has an inbuilt rechargeable 900ma/hr battery for self powered operation with a capacity of ~30 days over GPRS but can be recharged. The design is suitable for trucks, tractors and prime movers bobtailing with modern trailers that use ABS braking systems; thus requiring a 12/24volt power supply. This supply is then used to trickle charge the MCG2000. When the trailer is disconnected the MCG2000 is configured to report two positions each day over GPRS to SECUREzone; however it can be polled dynamically to find an asset. The device also has inbuilt security anti-tampering features.
 

MCG3000

MCG3000 is SECUREwatch’s latest Fleet Web Telematics device targeted at more sophisticated users of Fleet Management Solutions who require scalable technology. The MCG3000 boasts a wide array of monitoring and intelligent analysis functionality from basic GPS tracking (AVL) applications, Driver & Passenger Key ID management, duress alerts, geofence management, refrigeration temperature monitoring, odometer readings, harsh braking & acceleration, tow-away alert, revs(tacho), speeding, remote control plus much more.
 

MCG3000C - CAN Bus

MCG3000C is the same functional specification as the MCG3000 except that it additionally includes onboard CANBus module. This module is included at time of order at production and comes as a complete unit with appropriate automotive cabling. CANBus formats supported are J1939 and FMS subsets of J1939.
 

MCG4000

The MCG4000 offers the same level of features as the MCG3000 but additionally includes Iridium Satellite SBD (short burst data) + GSM/GPRS/GPS. A hybrid Fleet Telematics unit suited to sophisticated users of Fleet Management solutions requiring an always on-line communication mode no matter the location!
 

MCG Porta Kit

MCG DEVICE PORTA-KIT – SECUREwatch’s Custom built 12v vehicle mains with battery backup or powered with 240volt charger input, rugged portable communications kit designed for quick deployment as GPS tracking device and for emergency response or adhoc worker applications. This kit is ideal for Organisations that wish to deploy tracking and duress response technology for remote operations and OH&S issues (MCG4000), or utilised into vehicles on a regular or adhoc basis.
 




SECUREzone WEB AVL Services

 

SECUREzone Web AVL & Telematics Bureau provides a range of optional add on services, which can be scaled up on top of the standard but “feature rich” AVL Web Service to provide an advanced level of functionality and reporting services to optimise fleet performance, these are:

Accident Reconstruction

The MCG device logs relevant vehicle data including location, speed, direction and harsh braking on a second by second basis. Post an accident, the MCG device is physically recovered from the vehicle and sent to SECUREwatch for a post mortem analysis and recovery of the accident log; a Google Earth report is generated for the customer. If after an accident, and if power is still available and the device is capable to transmit, an impact alert will also be sent directly to SECUREwatch web system or to an In-House Customer Central Monitoring Facility as a “high alert”. for
MCG1000, MCG3000, MCG4000
 

Driver Performance

Active monitoring of abusive driver behaviour. Monitored parameters include excessive idle, harsh braking, excessive acceleration, speeding, over revving and free wheeling. The analysed information provides the operator with a valuable tool to minimise fuel and maintenance costs while maximising safety. for
MCG1000, MCG3000, MCG4000
 

Temperature Monitoring (Refrigeration)

Monitoring of refrigeration temperature compartments utilising digital temperature sensors with a range of -50 deg C to +125 deg C. Refrigeration operating limits are individually set for each sensor. The MCG reports periodical temperature readings as well as alerts to any readings outside the defined range. Up to x4 Sensors. for
MCG3000, MCG4000
 

Zone Management (Geofences)

Popular Accessory Components

 

Personal Saftey Key Fob

The Key Fob Transmitter operates with the MCG1000/3000/4000 devices. It is a line of sight transmission using the UHF Band with a typical range of +100Metres (depending upon terrain & obstacles).

It triggers a “Panic/Duress" or other defined High Alert event back to the SECUREzone Web System or the SECUREwatch Safety Monitoring Desktop System on a 24/7 365 basis.

Duress (Panic) Button or Pull Down Switch

There are many duress (panic) button options on the market. We propose the pull down and release version with an LED indicator to confirm acknowledgement & reset by SECUREwatch H24/7 monitoring centre.

MCG GSM Voice Hands Free Truck Phone

GSM Voice Hands free & Call Control/Dialer Kit – this is a very useful kit that converts the MCG3000/H devices into an in-vehicle “speaker & microphone” car/truck phone (it is not portable). The MCG devices can be programmed to allow up to a maximum of x4 fixed numbers that a driver can call. The dialer kit has “Answer and hang up” buttons to control the call. This device “where it fits the purpose, can replace a mobile phone as an effective aid to reduce company telephone costs

Driver iButton Key Tags

To be deployed for confirming the correct driver(s) to a vehicle. The MCG3000 will verify the driver ID, driver rating, i.e. licensed to use the vehicle with option to limit driver to a set fleet of vehicles. The verified driver ID enables ignition. As well live plots of vehicles will also denote which driver key is being used at that time.

The SECUREzone Configurator system is able to program remotely up to x30 approved drivers to MCG device associated with a vehicle to add, delete, include or exclude drivers using iButton access. This can be changed dynamically over the air direct to the MCG device when it is on. This is a highly secure process as it involves accessing the device; thus as policy it is done by our CSC or trusted Resellers by request from the customer.

 

Driver iButton Reader

The iButton reader is the mating component to the iButton tag and forms the communications interface to the MCG device.

 

Combined Stealth Antenna

SECUREwatch offers its combined GPRS/GMS/GPS AVL and telematics antenna, which is a high sensitivity and high performance device. The antenna is ideal for AVL and Telematics and can be deployed out of sight under a shelf or rear compartment near or on glass.

 

MCG3000 Extra Cables

The MCG3000/C comes standard with a 16 way cable loom that is for Power, Inputs and Outputs. There two more cables which are optional. a 10 way and 14 way.

These two cables enable future access to advanced options e.g. iButtons, Temperature Sensors, CANBus and/or other telematic functions that currently do not form part of the standard AVL specification.
