«АвтоФон Альфа-Маяк» 5
The AutoFon Alfa-Mayak device consists of a GSM/GPRS modem,
a GLONASS/GPS receiver, a programmable microprocessor and
an autonomous power supply.
The autonomy and miniature dimensions of «AutoFon Alfa-
Mayak» allow the owner to discreetly install it in the most
difficult-to-find place. Since the device is in sleep mode most of
the time, it is extremely difficult to determine its location with
air scanners and GSM signal detectors. If a system of jamming or
suppression of GSM frequencies is used by attackers, the long-
term autonomy of «AutoFon Alfa-Mayak» will allow waiting for
the suppression means to be disabled and contact the owner.
The operating mode «AutoFon Alfa-Mayak» is set by the owner
from your personal account on the server: control.autofon.ru,
or via the Autofon KSA mobile application for Android and iOS.
Direct control via SMS is also possible. «AutoFonAlfa-
Mayak» determines its coordinates using the satellites of the
GLONASS/GPS navigation systems and can transmit them to
the cell phone number programmed by the owner IN THE form
of SMS-messages or as part of information packets via GPRS-
protocol to the monitoring server selected in the settings.
The packets [ may indicate the current speed, from which the
protected object moves. As service information, the message can
include data on the date and time of coordinate measurement,
battery life, temperature inside the device, set operating modes,
the number of navigation satellites found, the level of GSM
signal strength, the number of SMS messages sent on a given
set of batteries.
«AutoFon Alfa-Mayak» can determine the approximate location
of a stolen object even in the absence of a signal from satellites,
for example: in a garage, in an underground parking lot, in a
container, or when the GPS signal is deliberately jammed by
radio equipment. In this case, the location will be determined
by LBS, the information will be transmitted with the indication
of identifiers of the GSM network base stations closest to the
location of the device.
