GPS&GPRS PERSONAL TRACKING
GT2000NP/GT2500NP
GT2000NP REV 3.1 (GT2000NP gt2k4-d-ptm-5.5.2-2.03.enc gt2000np-d3)
I. BRIEF INTRODUCTION
Personal Tracking System utilizes the GPS and GPRS functions in one unit. You can monitor the vehicle or the
people location and set the system remotely. In addition, the unit will send event report if any trigger occurs.
The standard report sent by the unit includes the information: (1) unit’s ID, (2) status, (3) time, (4) GPS’s
latitude and longitude, (5) speed, (6) direction, (7) device’s status, (8) event number, and (9) report
configuration parameters.
The reporting mode can be categorized as ‘normal’ mode, and ‘power saving’ mode. In normal mode, the GPS
will always be activated while moving, and it can be shut off the GPS when stop (for power saving purpose). To
enable the maximum power saving, user can choose “power saving mode”. In this mode, the GPS will be
activated only when there is a report to send while moving. The report parameters can be set from the PC setup
program. GT2000NP/GT2500NP can be set to go in sleep mode (while not moving), the system will cut the
power of GPS module in order to save power. With build-in 3-D acceleration sensor, GT2000NP/GT2500NP
can select related reporting modes with respect to it is moving or not.
The device has built-in 4 Geo-fences and one immediate Geo-fence (in circular shapes), it will send the report
to the server if the Geofence event is triggered.
The UNIT must be initialized by PC setup program in order to make communication with the remote server
/call center. There are three main sections that allow users to program the device, (1) User detail (Device ID,
server IP, and port, GPRS APN….) (2) Geo-fence (5 circular Geo-fence) (3) Report (Time, Distance, speed,
Low battery, wakeup …)
A unique help report: user can press the Button 3 for 2 seconds after the unit power on. The unit will send the
help report to server, power LED flash 5 times at the same time.
Taxi mode on/off: Pressing “II” twice within 2 seconds will put the unit into “Taxi mode”. Pressing “II” twice
again within 2 seconds will take the unit out of “Taxi mode”. When the unit enters “Taxi mode”, the top LED
will flash 3 times/3sec and unit will vibrate once every minute. When in Taxi mode, the unit will automatically
vibrate every one minute. When the unit vibrates at these intervals, the user must press “II” within one minute
each time, if not, the unit will automatically send an “SOS” report to the server.
When there is no GPRS service or the server close. The unit will send short message to the preset number. The
max number of SMS message (monthly usage) and the monthly renew date can be set from the pc setup
program or the remote setup program. Only 1 SMS number can be set. The reports sent via the SMS will be out
again via GPRS after a valid GPRS connection is made.
GT2000NP/GT2500NP can be configured by the PC setup program or the Over-the-Air (OTA) commands / or
remote program. The unit can communicate with the server via UDP or TCP protocol. The protocol can be
selected from the PC-setup program or remote server commands.
Flash memory for recording reports up to 900 reports. It can be read out from the PC setup program via serial
port.
On the left side, there are two buttons (‘+”button and ‘-”button) used to change the ring volume. Push ‘+”button
for 2sec. to select Vibration, ring or ring & vibration together modes.
Recharge battery need three hours, after finish recharging, Power LED will change to green.
Call Monitoring: user can send a SMS that included the preset password of the unit. GT2000NP/GT2500NP
will send “PASS” SMS ACK back, unit will auto answer the phone in the following 10 minutes.
Using built-in real time clock to identify the report time, when GPS signal is lost. Hence, if the report is
received with “LAST KNOWN” message, the time in the report will be the real time clock, but the GPS
position will be the last known valid GPS position.
Three LED indicate the status of the SYSTEM, GPRS signal and GPS signal.
SYSTEM LED: to refer the IV. BUTTON OPERATION
YELLOW LED: GSM/GPRS indicator. Yellow LED will flash when the device is connected to the server with
valid GPRS connection. It will stay continuously on when it is in GSM mode. It will stay off if there is no GSM
reception.
GPS indicator (bottom LED): LED is GREEN when the unit has acquired a valid GPS signal, and it will flash
when the unit is searching GPS signal.
Note that the GREEN LED’s indication will not be valid until the system goes to the working mode, normally
30 seconds after power on.

is no report to send.
Note: that user can configure the wakeup report if the device is in “stop” (not moving) state.
Normal mode, report will be summarized as:
(1) Fixed time report
Parameters: On/Off, and time.
(2) Fixed distance report
Parameters: On/Off, and distance. (min. distance is 0.1 km, max. distance is 100 km).
(3) Speeding report: (min. speed is 0.1 km/Hr, max. speed is 1000 km/Hr).
Parameters: on/off, and speed
(4) GPS wakeup report:
While the device is in stop status, user can let the GPS go to sleep mode for power saving. If select GPS Sleep
ON, user can setup the wakeup report configuration/ or NO GPS wakeup report.
IF select GPS SLEEP OFF, GT2000NP/GT2500NP will follow the report sending rule in “When Moving”
section.
Power saving mode
While in Power saving mode, GT2000NP/GT2500NP will cut off the GPS power if there is no report to send.
Report configuration will be listed as: the fixed time report while moving, and wakeup report / or no GPS
wakeup report while stop. In this mode, in order to save power unit will cut power of GPS, only wake up GPS
at the time of send report.
GPRS dial-up procedure
1) GPRS always one-line
Parameters: Reconnect interval
While using this mode, when the unit can not searched GPRS signal, system will reconnect GPRS interval a
preset value. (e.g.: 1minute)
10
2) Base on report mode
Parameters: Max. reconnect times, reconnect interval
While using this mode, the unit will connect to the server when there is a report to send. If the first connection
is failed, it will retry to connect to the server up to the max. reconnect times. Each retry will be separated by the
reconnect “interval”.
3).GPRS connect once
While using this mode, the unit will connect to the server when there is a report to send (but only try once). If it
is not successful, the report will be stored and sent out in the next successful connection. Disconnect GPRS
connection when report sending is completed.
Reduce GPRS dialup method
Parameters: On/Off, Max. reconnect times, connect delay
If this method is used, the unit will reduce the GPRS dial-up connection when the dial-up is failed after number
of times. User can define the delay time for the unit before try to reconnect to the server. If there is trigger
report, the unit will connect to server immediately.
Keep alive procedure
Parameters: On/Off, and interval / retry times. In order to keep connection in GPRS network, the unit can be set
to send short keep alive report to the server in order to prevent the disconnection from the mobile service
provider.
Send reports after a successful keep alive ACK. Parameters: On/Off .
If you select this function, all the reports will only be sent out after a successful keep alive ACK. (So if your
keep alive time is shorter then select this function will be OK.) This function is very useful while using UDP to
prevent report lost.
Send a keep alive packet right before a due reports if no data stream within certain time: Parameters: On/Off,
and idle time.
Some GSM provider might cut connection, if there is no data within certain time. It might result report lost in
this “fake connection” duration. For example, you can set parameters in this region, ex 20 mins. (it means if the
unit did not send any data in this 20 mins (including keep alive or normal reports) ), then it will send a keep
alive packet to check if the GPRS connection is valid or not. If not, it will actively reconnect to GPRS network.
Special command for SMS mode:
If the GT2000NP/GT2500NP is not in the GPRS online status, user can send command &&Y02 or &&Y04 to
ask unit to connect to server. This command can be sent from any device via SMS;
&&Y02:
When received this command, system will actively try to connect to server in next 600 seconds.
11
&&Y04,[connection time],[report interval]:
For example: &&Y04,3600,60
When received this command, system will connect to server in the next 3600 seconds, and send one report
out every 60 seconds.
Low battery report:
Low battery warning report (to alert user when the external battery level is low)
Parameters: On/Off, and warning battery level for report. For example, 30 to represent 30% lower level report.
The system will ignore the parameter with a value ‘0’ to prevent continuous non-stop reporting. Low battery,
unit will cut power of GPS, only call function will be activated.
Acceleration sensor:
To determine whether GT2000NP/GT2500NP is moving or not, user can select the sensitivity of the
“acceleration sensor”. It is distinguished by the tilt angle of the device. If the unit tilted more than the degree set
here, GT2000NP/GT2500NP will be in moving mode. Otherwise, it will be in stop mode. The smaller the
parameter of degree for the sensor set in pc-setup is, the higher the sensitivity is, otherwise, the result is the
opposite.
You can select the Acceleration sensor trigger report to be sent or not, while the unit is moved. “Select” (by
click), the related reports will be sent. Otherwise the report will be ignored, when the device is moved.
