This article discusses the design and implementation aspects of ACP 245, a telematic communication protocol, in the vehicle location equipment. The ACP 245 is an open protocol created by DENATRAN (National Traffic Department) to meet Resolution No 245 of CONTRAN (National Traffic Council), which made mandatory the use of antitheft equipment in new vehicles coming out of factory, domestic or imported. The Resolution No. 245 initiated a process of adaptation of products and services - within the operational context called SIMRAV (Integrated System for Monitoring and Automatic Vehicle Registry) - outlined by DENATRAN in partnership with automakers, vehicle location equipment manufacturers, SIM Cards manufacturers, monitoring services providers and mobile communication operators among others.
