1. Introduction
The GV200 is a powerful GPS Locator designed for vehicle tracking or asserts tracking. With
superior receiving sensitivity, fast TTFF (Time to First Fix) and Dual-Band GSM frequencies
850/1900, its location can be monitored in real time or periodically tracked by a backend
server or other specified terminals. The GV200 has multiple input/output interfaces which
can be used for monitoring or controlling external devices. Based on the integrated @Track
protocol, the GV200 can communicate with a backend server through the GPRS
network to transfer reports of Emergency, Geo-fence boundary crossings, Lower Battery or
scheduled GPS position along with many other useful functions. Users can also use GV200 to
monitor the status of a vehicle and control the vehicle with its external relay output. System
Integrators can easily setup their tracking systems based on the full-featured @Track
protocol.

3.3.2 Power Connection
PIN 24 is named as VIN which input voltage range is 12V or 24V DC and can be connected to
vehicle’s battery directly (12V or 24V DC).
GV200 User Manual
TRACGV200UM001 - 14 -
Please install the power like following.
Figure 6: Example of power connection
3.3.3 5V Output
PIN 19 is named as VOUT which can drive a controlled 5V output for user. Please note that if
user wants to drive a 5V output, GV200 must be supplied by external power. In default, 5V
output is disabled, user can use AT commend to enabled 5V output. The max drive current
of VOUT is 0.25A.
3.3.4 Reset Key
There is a reset key on the right side of SIM Card interface. When the key is pressed, the
device will reboot. Please note that reboot do not change any firmware parameter.

3.3.5 Ignition Detect
The PIN 14 is DIN1 (Positive trigger). Its electrical conditions are:

It is strongly recommended to connect this pin to ignition key to support the power saving
function when the vehicle is off.
Figure 8: Ignition detection
Another easy way is to connect PIN14 to a power output in the fuse box of the vehicle which
is only enabled after the vehicle is ignition on. For example: the power output for radio FM.
3.3.6 Ignition Control
DOUT1/2/3/4 can be used to control ignition key. They are Open-Drain type with no internal
pull-up resistor which also be used to control a relay. It means that the user has to connect a
pull-up resistor or a relay coil between the DOUT1/2/3/4 pin and any positive voltage to
generate a correct output. The DOUT1/2/3/4 pin can drive a continuous current of 0.2A.
The electrical conditions of it are:

showed in following figure. Please refer to chapter 3.3.11 for the detail information on how
to drive a relay with digital output.

3.3.8 Digital Input without Interrupt
The DIN1 and DIN4 are digital inputs which do not have interrupt. DIN1 is positive trigger
and DIN4 is negative trigger. The sample rate for this digital input is 2 to 24 seconds. Please
note the high sample rate will also result in high power consumption.
GV200 User Manual
TRACGV200UM001 - 18 -
3.3.9 Digital Input with Interrupt
DIN2 and DIN3 are digital inputs which have interrupt. DIN2 is negative trigger and DIN3 is
positive trigger.
The example connections are same as showed in chapter 3.3.7.
DIN2 is also recommended to support panic button function and the connection is showed
as follow.
Figure 12: Example connection of panic button
3.3.10 Analog Input
The PIN 3/5/7 are used for analog to digital converter. GV200 can support different type
sensors such as resistance-type and capacitance-type due to the differences between the
three analog inputs. Please note it is an average value based on the sample rate from 2 to 24
seconds, which means the burst on voltage input may not be detected.
3.3.10.1 Resistance-type Sensor
AIN1 (PIN 3) is designed to support some resistance-type sensors and there is an internal
pull-up resistor (100K Ohm) on its channel. Due to the internal pull-up resistor, user can
connect resistance-type sensors directly between analog inputs and AGND. The follow figure
is the example connection of AIN1 with NTC resistor. The recommended value of NTC
resistor is 100K@25℃.

TRACGV200UM001 - 19 -
Figure 13: AIN1 connect to NTC resistor
3.3.10.2 Capacitance-type Sensor
AIN2 (PIN 5) and AIN3 (PIN 7) are designed to support capacitance-type sensors. In default
GV200 only support capacitance-type sensors which voltage range is 0 ~ 2.7V. If user wants
to use the capacitance-type sensors which voltage range is out of 0 ~ 2.7V, a level transfer
board must be used between capacitance-type sensors and GV200. The follow figure is the
example connection of AIN2/3 with capacitance-type sensors.
Figure 14: AIN2/3 connect to capacitance-type sensor
User also can connect a power source directly to AIN2/3, the voltage limitation is same as
capacitance-type sensor.

3.3.11 Digital Output
The outputs are Open-Drain type with no internal pull-up resistor which also be used to
control a relay. It means that the user has to connect a pull-up resistor or a relay coil
between the output pin and any positive voltage to generate a correct output. Each output
can drive a continuous current of 0.2A.
The electrical conditions are:

Digital outputs are used for cutting/restoring GND. The example connections are:

GV200 User Manual
TRACGV200UM001 - 21 -
Figure 16: The example connection to drive a relay
Note: All outputs are internally pulled up to PWR pin by a diode. So no external flyback diode
is needed when the output is connected to an inductive load.
If the digital output is used to drive a relay, a catch diode is showed across the relay coil, this
is necessary to prevent damage to the digital output when the relay is turned off. Many
modern relays come with this diode pre-installed internal to the relay itself. If the relay has
this diode, insure the proper relay polarity connected is used. If this diode is not internal, it
should be added externally. A common diode such as a 1N4004 will work in most
circumstances.
