1 Introduction Kylos
If you need a once-a-day notification to ensure that your equipment is
operating securely, we have the right asset tracking device for you. Kylos
Forever will watch over your assets or equipment placed in remote areas for
months at a time, with its battery that lasts up to 3 years. This way, you can
keep up with what’s going in your most isolated sites, and reduce the risk of
having your equipment stolen, lost or possibly forgotten.
While the device is in sleep mode, it will “wake up” and report any situation
which appears to be out of the ordinary or unexpected.
Kylos Forever is a standalone unit, capable of operating without the need for
any connection or external wiring –this makes it easily hidden if required,
for example in a motorcycle.
