A system for monitoring a mobile refrigerant system including one or more system components is provided. The system includes a global positioning system, a performance monitor, and a processor. The global positioning system includes a receiver that provides a locator signal. The performance monitor provides a monitor signal indicative of operational performance of at least one of the system components of the refrigerant system. The processor is adapted to receive and combine the locator signal and the monitor signal, and produce a combined locator and monitor signal output.
