GC-2673 IP68 PIN and NFC Driver ID Keypad

PIN and NFC Driver Identification for Fleet Vehicles

GC-2673 combines PIN entry, confirmed with the # key, and NFC card or fob input. The keypad sends a driver identifier to a supported tracker over the 1-Wire/iButton interface, emulating a DS1990A iButton. NFC is used between the card and keypad; it does not replace the wired tracker connection.

Combining contactless and PIN entry in one IP68-rated unit, it removes lost-key headaches and works with the Driver Authentication feature of compatible trackers, including immobiliser control where configured.

How It Works

• Driver taps an NFC card or fob (13.56 MHz), or enters a PIN of 4 to 14 digits confirmed with #

• The GC-2673 sends the Driver ID to the tracker over the 1-Wire iButton interface (emulating a DS1990A)

• The tracker authenticates the driver, reports to your platform and, if configured, manages the immobiliser

Key Features

• Dual identification: NFC reader plus keypad

• NFC at 13.56 MHz (ISO/IEC 14443 A/B), reads up to about 5 cm

• Driver ID of 4 to 14 digits, confirmed with the # key

• IP68 rated, fully sealed against dust and water immersion

• Internal buzzer for status indication (buzzer-only; no LED wiring)

• 1-Wire iButton output, a direct replacement for an iButton reader

• Backlit for night use

Compatible Trackers

A shared 1-Wire/iButton interface is the starting point, not proof of a complete installation. Confirm the tracker model, firmware, keypad wiring, reported identifier format and platform decoding. Driver logging and immobilizer control are separate functions; immobilizer use needs a supported tracker scenario and correctly installed output/relay.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the GC-2673 support both PIN and NFC identification?

Yes. Drivers can enter a 4–14 digit PIN confirmed with # or use a 13.56 MHz ISO/IEC 14443 A/B NFC card or fob.

Which interface connects it to the tracker?

It uses 1-Wire/iButton communication and emulates a DS1990A identifier.

Is the GC-2673 waterproof?

Yes. It has an IP68 sealed enclosure for harsh and outdoor vehicle environments.

Can it control immobilisation?

Yes, when connected to a compatible tracker and correctly configured.

Which trackers are compatible?

It works with tracker models that support 1-Wire driver authentication. Contact us with the exact model for confirmation
