Redview GPS www.redview.net - 6 -Page 6 of 30 B. System Introduction VT200 is a high-tech product through cooperation with mobile operators. It combines GPS Global Positioning System and GSM/GPRS communication system, which can clearly inform you the position & situation of your car. GPS is the abbreviation for Global Positioning System, which based on 24 position location satellites around the earth orbit. Their locating precision can be kept within 10 to 15 meters. GSM is the second digital mobile communication system (GPRS, second and fifth digital mobile communication system), and at present it is the mobile communication system that has the largest coverage and owns the most number of users. This product combines GPS and GSM/GPRS technologies together. It uses GPS system to locate your car, and sends the position/ situation report back to you via GSM/GPRS communication system. With a delicate mobile phone, you can monitor the present situation in your car from a faraway place. You can use the telephone remote control function to set monitoring mode, which will report the situation of your car to you periodically.

Use some other mobile phone to confirm that the PIN code has not been set, and that it can dial out and receive telephone calls without problem.
Redview GPS www.redview.net - 10 -Page 10 of 30 Before installing the SIM card, make sure to cut off power from the AVL unit. The correct installation method is to push the tray completely into the AVL unit, until you feel it is hooked by something. Find a suitable place inside the car for installing the unit. Check if all the wiring has been connected correctly; then connect the AVL unit to the power source.
Redview GPS www.redview.net - 11 -Page 11 of 30 3.INSTALLATION 3.1 Step 1: Install SIM Card (1) Unscrew and remove the front cover of your locator. (2) Insert the SIM card by sliding it into the card holder slot, with the chip module facing to the connectors on PCB, as direction shown in the picture.

For example: W000000,014,00003 SMS meaning: Make GT30 send a GPRS package every 30 seconds GT30 will response one SMS to confirm the setting . For example “set GPRS Timer ok/00003” ( tip: W000000,014,00000 mean STOP GPRS function ) Step6: Enable communication protocol type SMS format: W******,013,X X meaning is defined by RedView GPS. You can set it as 1 or 0 X=0: Enable Protocol B ( Suggestion ) X=1: Enable Protocol A For example: W00000, 013, 1 W00000, 013, 0
Redview GPS www.redview.net - 24 -Page 24 of 30 (tip: About the detail of Protocol B or Protocol A pls contact with our support teams: customer@redview.net ) Step7 : According to the document of our RedView GTP communication protocols , the server can analyses the GPRS data. Please contact us if you have not this protocol : customer@redview.net （tips: 1 You can get the latitude & longitude data sent from GT30 by GPRS every interval time from the Any software of TCP receiver ,which is installed in your PC. 2 if you require the document about GTP communication protocol of GT30, please contact us by mail. Our mail address: annagps@gmail.com ) 3 for bulk number: You can configure VT200 by PC tools named “Parameter Editor” in CD ----the tools is be designed by RedView GPS, and it is for configuring bulk number of Tracker unit, And the customers require one special USB configure cable from RedView GPS which connect PC with Tracker unit. For detail, read RedView Configuration tool V1.02 User Guide in CD
Redview GPS www.redview.net - 25 -Page 25 of 30 K Trouble shooting If you find some trouble in using VT200, please refer the following: (1) Check GPS signal is normal, please check following issue: (a) Working outdoor,VT200 can get better GPS signal; (b) Check the front side is placed toward sky; (c ) Charging VT200 for 3 hours for the tracker has enough power before usage (2) Check GSM signal is normal (a) Whether the GSM network is strong enough to make the track unit work. You can judge it by calling someone thorough your cell phone. (b) Whether the SIM card is installed correctly or not ,and try to pull out and insert SIM card as following picture shows to ensure it; try this operation a few times may help to ensure correct installation (c) Whether there is enough deposit in SIM card or not; (d) Whether your SIM card in VT200 support SMS function or not, (including send SMS and receive SMS) (f) Whether SIM card has specific requirement on cell phone or not, for example whether the SIM card can only use in a appointed cell phone, other cell phone cannot use the SIM card (g) Whether SIM card is binding to the specific cell phone or not (h) Whether SIM card need some authorization when using it For example, you need type one password when you use the kind of SIM cards (i) Whether the tracker has enough power to work, we strongly suggest it was charged at least 3 hours before use it (3) The SMS which be replied by VT200 is including the chars --- “ Last ……….” It is indicate the GPS signal is weak.
