Revision History Version Date Author Description of Change 1.01 Dec,2018 Arry Wang Initial QSZTRACGV600UM104 2 GV600MA User Manual 1. Introduction The GV600MA compact waterproof GPS trackers designed for a wide variety of vehicle tracking applications. They have multiple I/O interfaces that can be used for monitoring or controlling external devices, including a 1-wire interface used for temperature monitoring. Bluetooth 4.0 is supported. Virtual ignition detection and i-Button function are both supported by GV600MA. Their built-in GPS receiver has superior sensitivity and fast initial positioning. Different models allow the GV600MA location to be monitored in real time or periodically tracked by a backend server and mobile devices. System integration is straightforward as complete documentation is provided for the full featured @Track protocol. The @Track protocol supports a wide variety of reports such as emergency, geo-fence boundary crossings, and external power supply monitoring and scheduled GPS position reports. It built in BLE 4.0 communication unit as a Bluetooth device for more devices to interactively communicate and control. 1.1. Reference Table 1. GV600MA Protocol Reference SN Document Name Remark

Getting Started 3.1. Open and Close the Case Open the Case To open: Use a cross screwdriver to loosen the four screws and then lift the top case gently. To close: Align the top case with the bottom case and then tighten the four screws. Note:
Pay attention to the following details to close the case. Otherwise, the waterproof capability of the device may be deteriorated. 1. The positioning poles (total 11) on the top cover must be inserted into the holes of the rubber ring as shown below. 2. Tighten the screws sufficiently until the rubber ring is squeezed out as shown in the following figure 1. QSZTRACGV600UM0101 6 GV600MA User Manual 3.2. Install a SIM Card Open the case and ensure the unit is powered off (unplug the 18-pin cable and switch the internal battery to the OFF position). Insert the SIM card into the holder. Take care to align the cut mark and ensure the SIM card is pushed into the SIM holder completely. Close the case. Figure 2. SIM Card Installation 3.3. Install the Internal Backup Battery GV600MA has an internal backup Li-ion battery (5200mAH). Figure 3. Backup Battery Installation QSZTRACGV600UM0101 7 GV600MA User Manual 3.4. Power Supply Connection PWR (pin 1 or pin 2)/GND (pin 3 or pin 4) are the power input pins. The input voltage range is from 8V to 32V. The device is designed to be installed in vehicles that operate on 12V or 24V systems without the need of external transformers. Figure 4. External Power Supply Connection 3.5. Ignition Detection Table 7. Electrical Characteristics of Ignition Detection Logical Status Active Inactive Electrical Characteristics 5.0V to 32V 0V to 3V or open loop Figure 5. Typical Ignition Detection IGN (pin 5) is used for ignition detection. It is recommended to connect this pin to the RUN QSZTRACGV600UM0101 8 GV600MA User Manual position of the vehicle ignition switch as shown above. An alternative to connect 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 transmit information to the backend server when ignition is on and enter the power saving mode when ignition is off. 3.6. Digital Inputs There are four general purpose digital inputs on GV600. They all are negative triggers. Table 8. Electrical Characteristics of the Digital Inputs Logical Status Active Inactive Electrical Characteristics 0V to 0.8V Open loop The following picture shows the recommended connection of a digital input. Figure 6. Typical Digital Input Connection QSZTRACGV600UM0101 9 GV600MA User Manual 3.7. Analogue Inputs There is one analogue input on GV600MA, and the analogue input voltage range is from 0 to 32V. The following picture shows the recommended connection. Figure 7. Typical Analogue Input Connection Note:
Pin 6 is a multifunction pin: it can be configured as an analogue input. 3.8. Digital Outputs There are four digital outputs on GV600MA. All are of open drain type and the maximum drain current is 150 mA. Each output has a built-in over current PTC resettable fuse. Figure 8. Digital Output Internal Drive Circuit Table 9.

1. OUT1 will latch the output state during reset. 2. Pay attention to the polarity of the relay if it is pre-installed with an internal flyback diode during connection. Install an additional diode externally if there is no pre-installed internal diode. A common diode such as a 1N4004 one will work in most circumstances. 3.9. Device Status and LED Table 10.
