S7 Certified Van Tracker Systems

For the purposes of vehicle trackers, car tracker systems that achieve category S7 certification are regarded as stolen location systems that are activated once a vehicle has been stolen and enable the vehicle to have its location tracked.

S5 Certified Van Tracker Systems

GPS car tracker systems certified as S5, formerly known as Cat 5, are equipped with additional security features which means that they will pro-actively alert the Monitoring Centre, if the authorised driver recognition system is not in place when the vehicle is moved.

S5 Plus Van Tracker Systems

S5 rated car tracker systems which are advertised as “Plus” trackers are not part of Thatcham’s certification programme but indicate to customers that these systems will generally have the remote immobilisation feature built in. This means the system has the ability to receive a remotely sent signal to activate the immobiliser. As a result, the engine will not start again until the system has been reset.
