Globalstar Quick
Locate Service
Globalstar Quick Locate Service
provides the capability to reliably and affordably track
assets, manage fleets and monitor alarms in regions
where Quick
Locate service coverage exists. This ready to go
service allows 9 byte GPS location reports to be sent
automatically, six times daily, from areas where
alternative communications systems are unavailable or
prohibitively expensive. Available in two different
formats, these rugged units integrate a simplex modem,
controller board, a GPS receiver and battery power to
quickly and accurately locate the tracked assets.
Optional DC line power is also available to continuously
charge the unit. In addition, the Globalstar Quick
Locate products have the ability to integrate alarm,
door sensor and other event-driven information. A
convenient no-cost web tool is included with Globalstar
Quick Locate Service to easily access position
coordinates and monitored information.

simplex data solutions beyond Quick Locate.
How Simplex Technology Works
- Simplex messages are transmitted via the
Globalstar low-earth orbit satellite network, using
an uplink-only connection (one-way data
transmission).
- Multiple messages are sent over several minutes
at each transmission interval to ensure reception.
Once the Globalstar system confirms a message it
ensures repeats are deleted for efficiency. Customer
only pays for first confirmed message.
