FAQ’s – Find the Right Tracker for Your Needs

At Automatrics, we understand that choosing the right vehicle tracking solution can raise a lot of questions. Whether you’re looking for the best theft recovery system, a plug-and-play tracker, or a fleet management solution, our advanced technologies are built to deliver peace of mind and proven protection. 

Explore our FAQ section below to learn more about Automatrics MTrack, Fleet, and OBD tracker options including installation advice, theft recovery support, subscription details, and how our systems go beyond traditional GPS tracking. Get the clarity you need to track and protect what matters.

What is the best vehicle tracking solution for theft recovery?

If theft protection is your top priority, we strongly recommend the Automatrics MTrack system. This covert, self-powered device is extremely difficult for thieves to detect or remove, delivering industry-leading theft recovery success rates of 95–100%, depending on the application.

For added peace of mind, consider our “Double Up” dual-tracker solution, combining the security of MTrack with the live movement data of a Fleet wired GPS tracker. This dual-layered protection improves redundancy and increases recovery speed. You’ll also benefit from discounted dual subscriptions through our store’s Double Up option.

Are Automatrics’ radio signal theft-finding services included in my subscription?

Yes. If you’re using an MTrack tracker, your subscription includes full theft recovery management, including the use of radio signal direction-finding equipmentby Automatrics agents or law enforcement partners.

We work with the police and authorised recovery teams to track and retrieve stolen assets. Just report the theft immediately, share your crime reference number, and our 24/7 recovery team will take over. While Fleet and OBD trackers do not contain beacon technology, they still qualify for full theft tracking and recovery coordination.

Can I self-fit my Automatrics tracker system?

Yes, all Automatrics tracker products are designed to support self-installation with guidance. The OBD tracker simply plugs into your vehicle’s OBD-II port, enabling plug-and-go live tracking within seconds.

The MTrack system requires more careful placement and should be securely concealed using tools. New models offer magnetic mounting to ease installation and battery access. The Fleet tracker, which must be wired into a live power supply, is best fitted by a professional auto technician or an experienced installer.

What’s the best tracker if I need live trip reporting and real-time data?

You’ll want the Automatrics Fleet tracker, which offers real-time vehicle trip and journey history, ideal for businesses, fleets, or driver monitoring. It also provides 50–70% theft recovery potential, depending on fitment and usage.

For maximum protection and live data, you can combine Fleet tracking with MTrack’s covert recovery through our Double Up offer, receiving enhanced protection at a reduced subscription rate.

Which Automatrics product offers a simple “plug and go” vehicle tracker?

Choose the Automatrics OBD tracker if you’re looking for an easy, no-tools solution. This plug-in device connects to your vehicle’s onboard diagnostic (OBD-II) port and starts live GPS tracking instantly.

Ideal for commercial fleet vehicles, hire cars, or personal drivers, the OBD tracker gives you full journey logs, location updates, and a user-friendly dashboard.

Can I switch my tracker to a new vehicle or transfer ownership?

Yes, all Automatrics tracker devices and subscriptions are fully transferable. You can move your unit to a new vehicle or transfer ownership to someone else free of charge.

If you’re done with tracking, we also offer a buy-back scheme for eligible devices, helping you recover value. Just contact our support team for assistance with transfer or removal.

Are Automatrics trackers insurance-approved or Thatcham-rated?

Automatrics MTrack systems are designed to exceed current UK insurance theft recovery standards, even as the industry awaits formal updates from Thatcham Research.

While Thatcham categories have historically focused on hardwired GPS systems, Automatrics offers an advanced multi-layered solution that includes covert beaconing, RF location signals, and law enforcement support, offering recovery performance far beyond standard insurance trackers. Many insurers accept our systems, especially with MTrack’s near 100% success rate. Contact us if you require documentation or insurer guidance.

Are Automatrics MTrack devices hidden vehicle trackers?

Yes, Automatrics MTrack units are designed to be covert and discreet, making them virtually impossible for thieves to detect or disable.

Unlike traditional trackers, MTrack units are self-powered and can be concealed in multiple non-obvious locations. This stealth approach, combined with non-reliance on vehicle wiring, ensures maximum resilience against theft attempts, tampering, and even GPS jamming. It’s why MTrack is widely regarded as one of the most advanced hidden vehicle trackers available today.

At sub 100 metre range Is the Automatrics MTrack UHF signal more accurate for theft recovery operations than VHF?

In a close-range Direction Finding (DF) operation, such as trying to locate a stolen car hidden in a row of garages (under 100-meter range), UHF frequencies will generally be more accurate and effective than VHF frequencies for pinpointing the specific garage. Here’s why:

  • Penetration through Obstacles: UHF signals have shorter wavelengths, which allow them to penetrate through denser materials like concrete,  (found in garage structures), and masonry more effectively than VHF signals. VHF signals are more likely to be blocked or severely attenuated by these materials.
  • Reduced Multipath Interference: While both frequencies are susceptible to multipath fading (where signals reflect off surfaces and reach the receiver via multiple paths, potentially causing interference and phase shifts), UHF’s shorter wavelength and better penetration characteristics can reduce the severity of multipath effects in indoor or cluttered environments. This can lead to clearer and more stable signal reception, which is crucial for accurate DF.
  • Directional Accuracy: UHF signals generally allow for more precise DF when navigating around obstacles because they are less prone to being deflected or absorbed by structures. This makes it easier to pinpoint the location of the transmitting device within a very small area, such as a single garage.
  • Practical Applications: In scenarios like locating a hidden transmitter inside a building or dense urban area, UHF is often the preferred frequency for professionals due to its superior penetration capabilities.

In summary, when performing close-range DF operations to find a stolen or lost asset in a garage environment, UHF would generally be the more accurate choice due to its better penetration through obstacles a sub one metre accuracy will need high quality transmitters and receivers, operated by experienced professionals.

I have been a customer of Automatrics for a number of years and have always received a reliable and quality service, their customer service department always respond quickly to any questions and have been a pleasure to deal with, I have always felt confident that my asset was protected using their equipment, fortunately I have never needed their help to locate my vehicle, but there are many videos on YouTube that show how efficiently they recover stolen vehicles.

Wonderful company to deal with

by | Apr 10, 2022 | Car Reviews, MTrack reviews | 0 Comments

I bought a rather expensive Lexus car and decided that I really needed to protect it with a tracker. Automatrixcs provided a wonderful personal service. Easy to contact and everything was done effortlessly. I was with them for just under two years when, unfortunately, due to illness I have had to sell the car. I returned the tracking device and was given an instant refund. I cannot stress highly enough what a great company this is to deal with.

Grab reported missing at 0700 on Monday morning when lads got to site. Automatrics and police informed within 10 mins, by 0730 automatics had found the grab and informed the police of its location. Police found the grab and took possession an hour later. Great job done by all involved.

Worth Every Penny

We have used Automatrics for a number of years now and during this time we have managed to recover three stolen machines thanks to the help of Richard and the team. Without their tracker system these machines would have been lost for sure.

Automatrics are very quick to respond to a query or a theft and will do their utmost to recover the stolen plant. I would thoroughly recommend them as a means of tracking valuable items.

I can't express enough how thankful I am for Automatics, without them I would have no transport. I live 8 miles away from my closest family member and without Automatics I would have nothing. If you want your property protecting get Automatics, it's really worth the extra money 100%, thank you so much.
