How It Works with Vista GPS
When paired with Vista GPS, the RF-V47 transmits location, status and simple telemetry to Vista GPS's servers using GSM/EDGE data and cell-based fallbacks. Vista GPS ingests GPS, AGPS and LBS positioning, applies position-drift processing and presents live location, alerts and history through familiar dashboards and mobile apps. Alerts and two-way voice status are routed through Vista GPS so caregivers receive timely notifications and can act immediately.
- Real-time location and telemetry updates (GPS/AGPS/LBS) displayed in Vista GPS dashboards and mobile apps.
- Geo-fence alerts and historical route playback accessible from Vista GPS for monitoring movements over time.
- Two-way voice capability and one-button call status visible in Vista GPS logs and activity records.
- Battery level and low-battery alarms forwarded to Vista GPS to maintain continuous protection.
- Blind-spot supplemental uploads and position-drift processing improve continuity when GPS signals are weak.
