GV35 User manual 1. Introduction The GV35 is a powerful GPS locator designed for vehicle or asset tracking. It has superior receiver sensitivity, fast TTFF (Time to First Fix) and supports Quad-Band GSM frequencies 850/900/1800/1900, its location can be monitored in real time or be periodically tracked by a backend server or other specified terminals. The GV35 has multiple input/output interfaces that can be used for monitoring or controlling external devices. Based on the integrated @Track protocol, the GV35 can communicate with a backend server through the GPRS/GSM network to transfer reports of Emergency, geo-fence boundary crossings, low backup battery or scheduled GPS position as well as many other useful functions. Users can also use GV35 to monitor the status of a vehicle and control the vehicle by its internal relay output. System Integrators can easily setup their tracking systems based on the full-featured @Track protocol. 1.1. Reference Table 1: GV35 Protocol Reference SN Document name

GV35 User manual 3. Getting Started 3.1. Opening the Case Insert the triangular-pry-opener into the gap of the case as shown below, push the opener up until the case unsnapped. Figure 3. Opening the Case 3.2. Closing the Case Figure 4. Closing the Case TRACGV35UM001 GV35 User manual Place the cover on the bottom in the position as shown in the following figure. Slide the cover follow the direction of the arrow until it snapped. 3.3. Installing a SIM Card Open the case and ensure the unit is not powered (unplug the 6Pin cable and switch the internal battery to off position). Slide the holder right to open the SIM card. Insert the SIM card into the holder as shown below with the gold-colored contact area facing down taking care to align the cut mark. Close the SIM card holder. Close the case. Figure 5. SIM Card Installation 3.4. Power Connection PWR (PIN4) / GND (PIN1) are the power input pins. The input voltage range for this device is from 9V to 16V. The device is designed to be installed in vehicles that operate on 12V systems without the need for external transformers. Figure 6. Typical Power Connection TRACGV35UM001 - 12 -
GV35 User manual 3.5. Ignition Detection Table 5: Electrical Characteristics of Ignition Detection Logical State Active Inactive Electrical State 5.0V to 16V 0V to 3V or Open Figure 7. Typical Ignition Detection IGN (Pin6) is used for ignition detection. It is strongly recommended to connect this pin to ignition key RUN position as shown up. An alternative to connecting to the ignition switch is to find a non permanent power source that is only available when the vehicle is running. For example the power source for the FM radio. IGN signal can be configured to start transmitting information to backend server when ignition is on; and enter power saving mode when ignition is off. 3.6. Digital Input There is a general purpose digital input on GV35. It is negative trigger. Table 6: Electrical Characteristics of the digital input TRACGV35UM001 - 13 -

Typical Digital Input Connection 3.7. Digital Output There is a digital output on GV35 which is open drain type and can latch the output statue when there is no control. The output has a built-in over current and recovery PTC fuse and the maximum drain current is 150 mA. Figure 9. Digital Output Internal Drive Circuit TRACGV35UM001 - 14 -
