Neither the anti-theft system nor even the garage give a complete guarantee that the car will not be stolen. Therefore, even with the most advanced anti-theft protection equipment, equipment that allows you to find a stolen car will not hurt.
Instructions
Step 1
Place a mobile phone inside the car in such a way that even the most experienced intruder cannot find it. Show your imagination - it may be possible to place it in the back of the chair, ceiling, etc. The main thing is to exclude the possibility of accidental keystrokes, to provide constant charging of the device's battery from the onboard network through a special car charger (always equipped with a fuse), and also to take care of a good passage of radio waves. In advance, activate a service from the operator that allows you to determine the location of the phone. Do not forget to remove it from storage every six months and order any paid service, otherwise the SIM card will be blocked. To prevent the phone from ringing and giving away your location, turn off all sound signals in it. Choose the service itself, depending on your preferences, either with a fixed monthly fee, or with tariffication for each request.
Step 2
Configure the service so that you can track the location of the device hidden in the car from another phone that you constantly carry with you. It must be connected to the same operator, since the location service is provided only within the network.
To determine the location of your car, depending on the operator and type of service, send an SMS or USSD request. In response, you will receive an SMS or MMS message with the address, and in the second case, a fragment of the card. Some of the operators also allow, having received a username and password, at any time enter a special site under them and see the location of the phone on the monitor screen.
Step 3
If the phone is equipped with a GPS receiver, the requirements for its location become more stringent, because it is much easier to block the satellite signal than the base station signal. But you don't need to order a special service from the operator - you just need to connect unlimited access to the Internet. Install a tracker program on your phone (for example, TrekBuddy), get a login and password from the program manufacturer, after which on a special website you can determine the location of the car even with greater accuracy than in the previous case. If you use a special children's phone, for which the tracker program is part of the firmware, you will not have to install any software on it at all.
You can position the phone so that its camera can observe what is happening in the cabin or outside. In combination with the Mowecam or Mobile Webcam software and the service of unlimited Internet access, this will allow you to constantly see what the camera is filming on the screen of your computer or other phone (although the image will not be updated very often). Be sure to configure the program so that the broadcast from the camera is not public.
