CalAmp Corp. announced Navico has selected CalAmp's enhanced LMU-4530 telematics device to support Navico's new cloud-enabled GoFree Connected Vessel program to monitor onboard engine, sensor and navigation data. CalAmp's device management and maintenance software platform, PULS (Provisioning/Programming, Update and Logistical System), has also been customized to support Navico's over-the-air device management and firmware updates for vessels in port or at sea. The LMU-4530 is a highly intelligent platform designed to automatically switch between cellular, satellite and Wi-Fi client modes to optimize data backhaul for least cost routing, while also managing local area connectivity to peripherals through Bluetooth.  Like CalAmp's other LMU products, it employs the company's proprietary PEG (Programmable Event Generator), an onboard alert engine that continuously monitors a vehicle's or vessel's operating environment and status and responds instantly to pre-defined threshold conditions such as time, date, motion, locations, geo-zones, as well as data bus parameters and directly instrumented inputs.
