Location Services

Introducing XRS™ Connect Location Services – a new era for UHF CB radio.

Location & Status
XRS™ Connect Location Services enables users to send, receive and display GPS location with each transmission. Combining the power of XRS™ with the GPS engine and display of a smartphone or tablet, enabled by Bluetooth® Smart technology, XRS™ Connect Location Services creates a whole new world of possibilities for UHF CB radio. Users are also able to send, receive and display a short text ‘status’ on the tail of transmissions, selecting from either pre-defined or user-defined statuses, up to 32 characters.

Offline Maps
XRS™ Connect Location Services offers offline map caching, giving users the option to download* and store detailed maps - ensuring accurate map display in areas with no cellular coverage. A welcome inclusion for off-road 4WD adventures, long distance touring and remote workers.

Points of Interest
XRS™ Connect Location Services enables users to log and save an unlimited number of points of interest using the intuitive user interface - perfect for asset mapping on large properties and revisiting those ‘secret’ spots in the 4WD.

Contacts & Groups
XRS™ Connect Location Services displays the user-designated ID or ‘tag’ of each XRS™ radio within transmission range, allowing easy identification and tracking of multiple users. Create custom groups to easily manage contacts and filter display results.

Firmware Upgrades
XRS™ Connect Location Services enables the firmware of the XRS™ radio to be upgraded using a smartphone or tablet*. Receive notification of new features and enhancements, updated regularly at no additional cost.
