Download via ARGOS and long range UHF link.
Fully field programmable.

FLiteTraX BioLoc GPS ARGOS and UHF Tag at 21g. Tags include GPS, memory, programmable 3D accelerometers, temperature and UHF link.  Solar tags with Argos link with a Geofencing option. GPS accuracy is also programmable and 2m is acheivable in open sky area. Transmitters operate from -20°C to +60°C. 

Radio link has been field tested to remotely connect with transmitters from 1 km to 136 kms to program, to reprogram or to download data with the BioLoc base station. Up to 240 tags can communcate simultanesouly through the radio link.

Each tag/collar is fully programmable at production or by the scientist.  Communication with tags can be done with our "USB Performance" which plugs directly into a  laptop by using our software BioLoc Tx.  All the software is included for the scientist to easily programme and download data.   

Available as tags, back-pack, collar, ear-tag, tape or  "glue-on's".

BioLoc RX Radio Station.

Data collected from up to 146 tags via the BioLoc RX Base Station which is completely autonomous.  The system is solar powered and is fully :

  • Automatic

  • Easy to deploy

  • Waterproof and sturdy

  • Energy self-sufficient

The communication range can reach up to 50 kms. This base station has an internal GPS, bluethooth to connect to a laptop and GSM to connects to mobile cellphone service to send data via email. The GPS format is programmable and compatible on Google Earth and Google Maps. This system can communicate with up to 146 transmitters simultaneously. Each BioLoc RX base station is delivered with omni-directional antennas. If you want more range and you have less than 120° communication’s angle, we could provide specific antennas.  NOTE: Base Station only allows data download from tags. 

BioLoc USB Key Lite 

The USB Key plugged into a laptop allows you the opportunity to communicate with all BioLoc transmitters in the field to download data, reprogram transmitters, switch on some options, update new firmware and/or activate the “Rescue mode” in case of mortality. The software is pre-loaded onto the BioLoc USB.

The BioLoc USB has been developped for short range communication up to 1 km Line of Sight.  Tag shcedules can be changed using the USB Key Lite.

BioLoc USB Performance 

An addition to the RX Radio Station which allows conection to transmitter over a range of 136km. Tag schedules can be changed using the USB Performance
