MECHANICS / DESIGN

Dimensions 

Standard - 84 x 63 x 24 mm (3.31 x 2.48 x 0.94?)
Livestock Collar - 109 x 60 x 30 (4.29 x 2.36 x 1.18?)
Snap Housing (Smallest Size, not IP67 rated) - 75 x 45 x 25 mm (2.95 x 1.77 x 0.98?)

Weight 

Standard - 82 g (2.9 oz)

Housing 

Non-branded housing for optional white-labeling

IP/IK Rating 

Ultra-rugged and waterproof IP68 and IK06-rated housing ensures the Yabby Edge can withstand impact, fine dust, and brief submersion

Installation 

Compact and concealable. Multiple installation options for covertly and easily securing the device to assets with screws, bolts, cable ties, rivets, and more. Stainless steel screws supplied. Collar housing available for securing device to livestock.

Operating Temperature 

-30°C to +60°C
For operation in extreme temperatures use Lithium Batteries

Cellular Antenna 

Internal

GPS Antenna 

Internal

Wi-Fi Antenna 

Internal

3-Axis Accelerometer 

3-Axis Accelerometer to detect movement and high G-force events

Diagnostic LED 

Diagnostic LED indicates operation status

Flash Memory 

Store weeks of records if device is out of cellular coverage. Storage capacity for up to 5 days of continuous 30-second logging.

Speed and Heading 

Scanning technology used on the Yabby Edge does not return speed and heading

On-Board Temperature 

The device reports internal temperature which provides an indication of ambient temperature but may not always be precise

SMARTS

Auto-APN 

Auto-APN allows the device to analyze the SIM card and select the correct APN details from a list that is pre-loaded in the device's firmware

Battery Life Monitoring 

"Battery Low" and "Battery Critical" alert levels

Geofence Alerts 

The server can use device location to create geofences and alerts if an asset enters or leaves designated locations

Impact Detection 

Configure impact-detection alerts when G-forces are exceeded by a user-defined threshold

Intelligent Power Management

Early registration abort and location scan throttling options

Periodic or Movement-Based Tracking 

Configure parameters to send updates based on set time intervals or when movement occurs. Adaptive tracking technology detects when the device is on the move and increases the update rate, providing detail when you need it while conserving battery when stationary.

Preventative Maintenance 

Set reminders based on distance traveled and run hours to reduce maintenance and repair costs

Run Hour Monitoring 

Capture run hours based on movement to understand and optimize asset utilization

Sleep Mode 

Stationary devices enter sleep mode until movement occurs to conserve battery life and optimize data usage

Theft Recovery 

Switch to Recovery Mode in the case of theft or loss to activate real-time tracking for asset retrieval

Tip Detection & Rotation Counting 

Axis angle reporting, tip detection and rotation counting

DEVICE MANAGEMENT

Flexible Configuration 

Configure device parameters such as position update rate, movement and accelerometer settings, and more to fit any tracking application

Device Management Platform 

Manage, monitor, configure, debug, update, and restart devices remotely from our cloud-based device management system

INTEGRATION

Third-Party Integration 

HTTPS Webhook

Cloud-Based Solver 

Digital Matter's Location Engine makes it easy to perform cloud-based position solving and integrate data into any system

Configuration App 

Configurable with DM-Link provisioning tool

SECURITY

Data Security 

Military-level AES-256 Encryption from device to OEM Server to protect the integrity and confidentiality of telematics data. Data forwarded to third-party systems is sent via HTTPS for end-to-end security.
