DEWALT DS510K MobileLock GPS Locator with Anti-Theft Alarm plus Indoor Motion Detector

Amazon.com

The DEWALT DS510K MOBILELOCK indoor motion detector kit includes the base unit--a GPS locator with anti-theft alarm (DS500)--along with a motion detector that triggers the alarm if movement is detected up to 50 feet away from the unit.

About Mobilelock
The MOBILELOCK product is a stand alone portable, wireless locating and alarm system that is easily mounted either by using the heavy-duty magnet or by fastening the unit into place with screws. Unlike other mobile asset protection systems that use radio frequency to locate stolen assets, MOBILELOCK features a GPS locator that can help you find stolen or lost assets anytime. Additionally, an alarm notification alerts you when the protected piece of equipment has been disturbed or someone tries to remove the MOBILELOCK unit. The MOBILELOCK locator and alarm is a user-friendly self-installed system that you can customize to fit specific applications and security needs. The unit runs off of rechargeable lithium ion batteries and will remain powered for approximately 30 days.

You can easily customize the MOBILELOCK settings to create your own arm and disarm schedule, change contact phone numbers, adjust siren settings, and report status information, such as battery level and signal strength. Sensor features and the GPS locator can be accessed through the MOBILELOCK Web site, where you can log on to customize settings and monitor their equipment. You also can monitor and activate the MOBILELOCK alarm via phone.

How the MOBILELOCK unit works
Once you've purchased your MOBILELOCK, set up your service contract (see www.dewalt.com/us/security/mobilelock/rateplans.asp), and installed the unit, if the MOBILELOCK-protected asset is disturbed, the alarm will be triggered and you'll receive a phone call or e-mail notifying you that there has been a security breach. You can log onto the MOBILELOCK Web site, enter your personal pass code, and then access street maps or satellite imagery showing the approximate location of the MOBILELOCK unit. This enables you to quickly recover stolen or lost assets when the MOBILELOCK unit is property attached.

There are four sensors built into the MOBILELOCK unit, including a:

• Tamper sensor
• Door contact sensor
• Vibration sensor
• Temperature sensor

Each sensor can be programmed individually through a cell phone or the MOBILELOCK Web site to monitor the mobile asset. If an intruder tries to enter a secured area, disturb a piece of protected equipment, or remove the unit from the asset, the alarm activates, and a signal is sent via cellular technology. The MOBILELOCK cellular and location-based services utilize the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network.

Applications for MOBILELOCK
General contractors, home builders, remodelers, landscapers, earthmoving contactors and electrical, mechanical and HVAC professionals can utilize the MOBILELOCK locator and alarm to monitor mobile assets on the job site. It is ideal for the protection of assets on commercial construction sites such as heavy construction equipment, office trailers, gang boxes, and remote storage containers. On residential construction sites, MOBILELOCK can help deter the theft of tool trailers, appliances, garages, open rooms under construction, landscaping materials and equipment. Additionally, you can purchase the extended runtime kit (DS505K) for up to 90 days of run time.

I had assumed Sprint/Nextel were the same in coverage. Not so, you must have Sprint coverage

for the area where you will be using it. I am so disappointed they are not covered by Nextel too.
