Data Access Service Plans
Calsense offers 1 month, 1 year, and 5 year prepaid data access service plans for use with the GPRS
(model -GR) communication option. These prepaid plans allow the use of GPRS without the need to sign
a contract with a third-party service provider. Any changes to the service are handled by Calsense, as are
any firmware updates and programming changes that may need to be done to the radio during the term
of the contract. The multiple controller plans support up to 35 controllers sharing a single access service
plan.
Note: A multiple controller plan is required for GPRS radios connected to hubs, central computers, and
chains of more than two controllers.
