NOTE:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
-Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver

1 Introduction
The GV55VC is a powerful GPS locator designed for vehicle or asset tracking. It has
superior receiver sensitivity, fast TTFF (Time to First Fix) and supports Dual-Band
CDMA2000-1x frequencies 800/1900, its location can be monitored in real time or be
periodically tracked by a backend server or other specified terminals. The GV55VC has
multiple input/output interfaces that can be used for monitoring or controlling external
devices. Based on the integrated @Track protocol, the GV55VC can communicate with a
backend server through the CDMA2000-1x network to transfer reports of Emergency, geo-
fence boundary crossings, low backup battery or scheduled GPS position as well as many
other useful functions. Users can also use GV55VC to monitor the status of a vehicle and
control the vehicle by its external relay output. System Integrators can easily setup their
tracking systems based on the full-featured @Track protocol.

3.3. Power Connection
VIN (PIN1) / GND (PIN2) are the power input pins. The input voltage range for this device
is from 8V to 32V. The device is designed to be installed in vehicles that operate on
12V/24V vehicle without the need for external transformers.

Active 5.0V to 32V
Inactive 0V to 3V or Open
Figure 6. 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.
3.5. Digital Inputs
There are one general purpose digital inputs on GV55VC. They are all negative trigger.

Active 0V to 0.8V
Inactive Open
The following diagram shows the recommended connection of a digital input.

3.6. Digital Outputs
There are two digital outputs on GV55VC. All are of open drain type and the maximum
drain current is 150mA. Each output has the built-in over current and recovery PTC fuse

Note:
1 - OUT1 will latch the output state during reset.
2- Many modern relays come with a flyback 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.
