How It Works

How It Works

Active protection around the clock, backed by our 24/7 Secure Control Centre.

Around-the-clock protection

Active monitoring for unauthorised movement

Scorpion devices are state-of-the-art vehicle tracking units that actively monitor for unauthorised movement. If unauthorised movement is detected, our 24/7 Secure Control Centre will discreetly contact you to verify what's happening.

If it's confirmed as a theft, we ask you to report it to the police and obtain a crime reference number. Once you've done this, we liaise directly with the police control room, providing speed, direction, ignition state, battery condition and location details to support recovery - accurate to within 10 metres, subject to environmental variables.

The Process

How Scorpion tracking works

1

Vehicle fitted with tracker

Your vehicle is fitted with a ScorpionTrack or Datatool tracking unit.

2

GNSS signal sent to satellites

The unit locks onto GNSS satellite constellations - GPS, GLONASS and Galileo - to calculate a precise position fix.

3

Signal sent to GSM cellular tower

The positioning data is transmitted to nearby GSM cellular towers.

4

Data transferred to secure cloud server

The data received via the satellites and cellular towers is transferred to a secure cloud server.

5

Customers view this information

The tracking data is presented over a secure internet connection through either the ScorpionTrack or Datatool portal.

6

24/7/365 monitoring

Our Secure Control Centre contacts customers in the event of theft or unauthorised movement.
