You can choose a hardwired tracker, which a Quartix engineer installs out-of-sight in the vehicle\u2019s electrical system, or one of two self-install trackers if you prefer flexibility. The self-install options are the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Connect &amp; Track<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (a small unit that connects to the vehicle\u2019s battery) and the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plug &amp; Track<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (an even simpler device that plugs into the vehicle\u2019s OBD diagnostic port). This range of options means you can either have a professional installation with no effort on your part, or install the device yourself in minutes, depending on your needs.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n                <\/div>\r\n                                            <div class=\"accordion-item\">\r\n                    <button class=\"accordion-title\"><span class=\"arrow\"><\/span>Do I need a professional to install the Quartix tracker, or can I do it myself?<\/button>\r\n                    <div class=\"accordion-content\"><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s up to you. Professional installation: If you choose the hardwired device, a trained engineer will come to install the tracker for you \u2013 this is quick (typically under an hour) but does require scheduling a fitting and a brief vehicle downtime . Self-installation: Quartix\u2019s self-install devices come with easy-to-follow guides and do not require special tools . The Plug &amp; Track simply clicks into the standard OBD port (usually under the dashboard), and the Connect &amp; Track attaches to the battery with two wires. Most customers find these DIY options very straightforward, so you won\u2019t necessarily need an engineer unless you prefer that route.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n                <\/div>\r\n                                            <div class=\"accordion-item\">\r\n                    <button class=\"accordion-title\"><span class=\"arrow\"><\/span>What\u2019s the difference between the hardwired tracker and Quartix\u2019s self-install devices?<\/button>\r\n                    <div class=\"accordion-content\"><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">hardwired tracker<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is a permanent unit installed behind the dash \u2013 it\u2019s concealed, tamper-resistant, and compatible with additional accessories like driver ID fob readers or alerts for tail-lift usage . This option works on any vehicle type (cars, vans, trucks or heavy equipment). The <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">self-install<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> devices are more temporary: the Connect &amp; Track is semi-concealed (wired to the battery, but without an engineer) and the Plug &amp; Track fits into the OBD port. Both self-install units can be removed easily and swapped between vehicles, which is ideal for leased cars or vans . They also include built-in features like internal backup batteries and motion sensors \u2013 for example, the system can send a tamper alert if a device is unplugged or moved without ignition . In short, hardwire is a fit-and-forget solution with the most integration, while the self-install options offer flexibility and quick setup.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n                <\/div>\r\n                                            <div class=\"accordion-item\">\r\n                    <button class=\"accordion-title\"><span class=\"arrow\"><\/span>Can I move a Quartix tracking device to a different vehicle later on?<\/button>\r\n                    <div class=\"accordion-content\"><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, if you use a self-install tracker. Both the Plug &amp; Track and Connect &amp; Track devices are designed to be transferable. You can unplug or disconnect them and then install the device into another vehicle at any time. This makes them popular for fleets with high turnover or short-term rentals\/leased vehicles \u2013 you won\u2019t be locked into one vehicle . The hardwired tracker, on the other hand, is intended to stay with the vehicle once installed (it can be removed by an engineer, but not as conveniently). So if you anticipate frequently switching devices between vehicles, the self-install options are very convenient.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n                <\/div>\r\n                                            <div class=\"accordion-item\">\r\n                    <button class=\"accordion-title\"><span class=\"arrow\"><\/span>Will I know if a driver tampers with or removes a tracker?<\/button>\r\n                    <div class=\"accordion-content\"><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes. All Quartix devices have anti-tamper features. The hardwired unit is hidden behind the dashboard, making it difficult to access without detection. The self-install units (Connect &amp; Track and Plug &amp; Track) are smart enough to notify the system if they are disturbed. For example, you\u2019ll get an alert if the Plug &amp; Track device is unplugged from the OBD port or if the vehicle starts moving with the tracker removed . This means you\u2019ll be aware immediately if someone tries to disable tracking, ensuring the integrity of your monitoring.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n                <\/div>\r\n                    <\/div>\r\n    <\/section>\r\n<script nonce=\"\" nonce=\"\">\r\ndocument.addEventListener(\"DOMContentLoaded\", function(){\r\n    var titles = document.getElementById (\"acc1309471091\").getElementsByClassName(\"accordion-title\");\r\n    for (var i = 0; i < titles.length; i++) {\r\n        if ( i == (parseInt(-1 ))) {\r\n            titles[i].classList.add(\"active\");\r\n            titles[i].nextElementSibling.style.maxHeight = titles[i].nextElementSibling.scrollHeight + \"px\";\r\n        }\r\n    }\r\n});\r\n\r\nvar titles = document.getElementById (\"acc1309471091\").getElementsByClassName(\"accordion-title\");\r\nfor (var i = 0; i < titles.length; i++) {\r\n    titles[i].addEventListener(\"click\", function() {\r\n        if (\"openone\" == \"openone\") {\r\n            if(this.classList.contains(\"active\")) {\r\n                this.classList.toggle(\"active\");\r\n                this.nextElementSibling.style.maxHeight = null;\r\n            }\r\n            else {\r\n                document.querySelectorAll('#acc1309471091 .accordion-title').forEach(el => el.classList.remove('active'));\r\n                document.querySelectorAll('#acc1309471091 .accordion-content').forEach(el => el.style.maxHeight = null);\r\n                this.classList.toggle(\"active\");\r\n                var panel = this.nextElementSibling;\r\n                if (this.classList.contains(\"active\")) {\r\n                    panel.style.maxHeight = panel.scrollHeight + \"px\";\r\n                } else {\r\n                panel.style.maxHeight = null;\r\n                }\r\n            }\r\n        }\r\n        else {\r\n            this.classList.toggle(\"active\");\r\n            var panel = this.nextElementSibling;\r\n            if (this.classList.contains(\"active\")) {\r\n                panel.style.maxHeight = panel.scrollHeight + \"px\";\r\n            } else {\r\n            panel.style.maxHeight = null;\r\n            }\r\n        }\r\n    });\r\n}\r\n<\/script>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vehicle tracking devices: How are they installed?
