06 · WHEN IT COUNTS

Know where to start looking.

Alerts, live locations and recorded journeys help you understand unexpected movement and share useful information if something is stolen.

R·01

Receive an alert

Movement, geofence and power disconnect alerts help you notice when something is wrong. Critical alerts can bypass silent modes when supported and enabled on your phone.

R·02

Check the live location

Follow reported positions on the map while GPS reception and mobile coverage are available. Updates can be as frequent as every 5 seconds while moving.

R·03

Share with police

Provide the live location link to police to help them follow the reported location.

R·04

Review recorded journeys

Trip history shows where it travelled and when, giving you a record to refer to after an unexpected movement.

The Peace of Mind Promise.

If it’s not right for you, send it back within 30 days, unused and in original condition.

07 · QUESTIONS

Machinery GPS Tracker FAQs

Will it work on my machines?

CoreTough suits many types of powered equipment. Confirm the machine’s supply voltage and mounting requirements before ordering. Send us the make and model and we can help check suitability.

Can I monitor battery voltage remotely?

Yes. CoreGPS records supply voltage trends so you can review charging and battery behaviour remotely. These readings help you investigate changes; they do not measure battery capacity or solar output directly.

How often does the tracker update?

CoreGPS can update your machinery’s location as often as every 5 seconds while moving. Adaptive tracking also records points based on distance travelled and changes in direction to capture the route in detail. Update frequency depends on configuration and mobile coverage.

What happens outside mobile coverage?

Outside Telstra, Optus and Vodafone coverage, the tracker continues to record travel history and uploads it when mobile coverage returns. Real-time tracking and notifications are unavailable while the tracker is outside coverage.

What happens when my included tracking ends?

Renew each tracker for $9 per month or $90 per year to continue using live tracking, alerts, SIM connectivity and the CoreGPS platform. There is no obligation to renew.

Do I need a SIM card or phone plan?

No. Each tracker includes a managed SIM card with access to Telstra, Optus and Vodafone. After the included tracking period, renew each tracker for $9 per month or $90 per year.

What happens if the battery isolator is switched off or someone cuts the power?

If the isolator cuts power to the tracker, it has the same effect as disconnecting the battery. CoreTough can send a power disconnect alert and use its built in backup battery to continue reporting for a limited time. Reporting still depends on remaining battery charge, GPS reception and mobile coverage. Your installer can confirm how the tracker is connected relative to the isolator.

Will it drain my machinery battery?

The tracker uses machinery power and has low power modes when parked. Battery life depends on battery condition, capacity, other electrical loads and how long it is parked. Keep an eye on voltage trends and maintain the battery during extended storage.

Can I track more than one under the same account?

Yes. You can manage multiple CoreGPS trackers in one account, including a mix of CoreBasic, CoreTough and CoreOBD.

How is CoreTough installed?

CoreTough is hardwired to a suitable machinery power supply and secured in a discreet mounting position. An auto electrician can check compatibility and help with installation.

Can alerts sound when my phone is on silent?

On iPhone, enable Critical Alerts for the CoreGPS app to allow supported alerts through Silent mode and Focus. On Android, critical notification settings may need to be configured manually. Check your phone settings and test your alerts after setup.

Will this meet my insurer’s tracking requirements?

Requirements differ between insurers and policies. Check with your insurer before buying to confirm whether CoreGPS meets their requirements.

How is CoreGPS different from an AirTag?

An AirTag relies on nearby Apple devices to report its location. CoreGPS uses GPS and mobile connectivity to report your machinery’s location, with movement alerts, recorded journeys and a dedicated tracking platform. GPS reception and mobile coverage are required.

· OUR STORY

We track our own gear first.

Daniel, Katrina and their family together in the Victorian bush
Daniel & KatrinaVICTORIA, AUSTRALIA

CoreGPS started because we wanted to make reliable GPS tracking more accessible to people tracking their own cars, caravans and equipment. Our experience comes from running a fleet management business that has been operating since 2011.

Every tracker we sell is running on our own vehicles first. If it doesn’t earn its keep in our driveway, it doesn’t go in the store.

So we chose hardware we would install in our own vehicles, built and operate our own platform here in Australia, and support it from Victoria.
