Tag lineup
Last updated:
Hirro uses five devices. Three tags go on assets: the Standard tag for most machines and attachments, the Rugged tag for attachments that live outside for years, and the Mini tag for tools. Most sites need only tags, because staff phones do the reading. Gateways and live trackers are optional: gateways listen at fixed spots and on trucks, and live trackers report GPS over 4G for units that travel alone. All devices ship with CE.

A dash means the figure is not published yet. Battery life depends on how often the tag broadcasts, so the figures are upper limits. Each device has its own page on hirro.eu: Standard tag, Rugged tag, Mini tag, Live tracker and Gateway.
What do the optional gateways and trackers do?
Section titled “What do the optional gateways and trackers do?”| Device | Job |
|---|---|
| Site gateway | Listens at one spot, such as the gate, wash bay or workshop, and reports over 4G. Indoor versions serve halls. |
| Vehicle gateway | Fitted in a truck or carrier, it hears the tags that ride along. See Parent and child. |

What does the hardware cost?
Section titled “What does the hardware cost?”Hardware is priced close to cost and comes on top of a Hirro plan. You can buy it or lease it per device over 36 months. Standard BLE tags you already own work at no hardware cost. See Buy, lease or bring your own and the hardware page on hirro.eu.
