Introduction The GV300C is a compact GPS tracker designed for a wide variety  of  vehicle  tracking applications. The GV300C has multiple input/output interfaces that can be used for monitoring or controlling external devices. Its built in GPS receiver has superior sensitivity and fast time to first fix.  It’s  dual  band  CDMA2000-1x  subsystem  supports  800/1900MHz  allowing  the  GV300C's location  to  be  monitored  in  real  time  or  periodically  tracked  by  a  backend  server  and  mobile devices. It’s built in 3-axis accelerometer allows driver behaviour, motion detection and extended battery  life  through  sophisticated  power  management  algorithms.  System  integration  is straightforward as complete documentation is provided for the full featured @Track protocol. The @Track  protocol  supports  a  wide  variety  of  reports  including;  emergency,  geo-fence  boundary crossings,  driver  behaviour,  low  battery  or  scheduled  GPS  position  and  many  other  useful functions.  1.1 Reference Table 1.

Ignition Detection Table 7. Electrical Characteristics of Ignition Detection Logical State  Electrical State Active  5.0V to 32V Inactive  0V to 3V or Open  Figure 9. Typical Ignition Detection  IGN (Pin3)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. There are three general purpose digital inputs on GV300C. They are all negative trigger.
