CrossCheck CDPD Mobile Unit Manual     7Overview     11.3 CrossCheck CDPD ApplicationsThe Trimble Mobile Solutions (TMS) Division provides you with the core products around which you can build systems and applications for managing your transport and logistics assets. TMS products and services address the need for an end-to-end solution. They provide the building blocks at both ends of the asset management system including the on-board units mounted in the vehicle and the Trimble Web-based gateway for dispatch and control applications anywhere.The on-board components are centered on the CrossCheck CDPD receiver. You can use the receiver as a standalone unit, or you can interface it with external accessories and sensors to make it function as part of an on-board system. The optional EchoLDX Message Terminal provides a driver interface to exchange messages or generate event reports.The CrossCheck CDPD and applications can do the following:•Automate vehicle status changes for dispatching applications•Determine time spent and distance traveled on jobs for accounts-payable systems •Improve efficiency by detecting unauthorized vehicle stops or off-route activities•Improve customer service by alerting customer-service systems of delays•Drive compliance by keeping a time-stamped log of activities•Improve safety by indicating speed limit violations•Identify unauthorized use of equipment and detect theft
1     Overview8     CrossCheck CDPD Mobile Unit Manual1.4 The Global Positioning SystemThe Global Positioning System (GPS) is a satellite-based navigation system operated and maintained by the U.S. Department of Defense. GPS consists of a constellation of 24 satellites providing world-wide, 24-hour, three-dimensional (3D) coverage. Although originally conceived for military needs, GPS has a broad array of civilian applications including timing, surveying, fleet management, marine, land, aviation, and vehicle navigation.GPS is the most accurate technology available for navigation. As a satellite-based system, GPS is immune from the limitations of land-based systems, which have limited coverage and whose accuracy varies with geographic location and, even under ideal conditions, cannot compare with GPS.By computing the distance to GPS satellites orbiting the earth, a GPS receiver can calculate an accurate position. This process is called satellite ranging. GPS receivers can also provide precise time, speed, and course measurements which are important for vehicle mobile positioning and communications applications. 1.5 GPS ReceiverThe CrossCheck CDPD includes an advanced GPS receiver, which provides the position, course, speed and time information required for AVL and fleet management applications. A brief overview of the GPS receiver’s architecture and operation is provided in the next paragraph.The CrossCheck CDPD’s GPS receiver features an eight-channel digital signal processor (DSP) which operates at the GPS L1 frequency (1575.42 MHz) and processes the Coarse/Acquisition (C/A) code portion of the GPS signal. The RF and digital signal-processing components of the GPS module are custom integrated circuits designed by Trimble.

2     Installation16     CrossCheck CDPD Mobile Unit Manual2.6 Mounting the CrossCheck CDPDThe CrossCheck CDPD can be installed inside any type of vehicle and in any orientation. It can be installed in an enclosed compartment or in a location with limited accessibility, as long as the environmental specifications are maintained to ensure reliable operation. For example, the CrossCheck CDPD can be installed on the floor under a seat, or on a wall behind a seat.Note – The CrossCheck CDPD cannot be installed inside the engine compartment, wheel well, chassis, or on any exterior surface of the vehicle.Choose a location for the CrossCheck CDPD that allows for convenient routing and connection of the antenna and interface cables, and that has access to a power source. When selecting a mounting location, consider the specifications listed in Appendix A, and avoid the following hazards:•Direct exposure to weather •Excessive heat (exhaust manifolds) •Excessive cold (refrigeration units) •High-vibration areas (engine compartment, transmission) •Corrosive fluids and gases (acids, petroleum products) •Direct exposure to water (The CrossCheck CDPD is not waterproof.)To mount the CrossCheck CDPD:1. Choose the mounting location.The CrossCheck CDPD can be mounted horizontally, vertically, or in any convenient orientation. During normal system operation, you do not need to see the CrossCheck CDPD LED indicators. However, the ability to see the LED indicators is a definite advantage when troubleshooting the unit.
CrossCheck CDPD Mobile Unit Manual     17Installation     2The integral mounting flange is designed to secure the CrossCheck CDPD to a flat surface. The flange has four holes for securing the unit with fasteners.2. Use self-tapping screws or machine screws to secure the unit to the mounting surface.,Caution – Over-stressing the plastic mounting surface when tightening the mounting screws can cause the plastic to crack. Use washers sized small enough that they do not tighten down on the plastic cover of the CrossCheck CDPD when the mounting screws are secured. Tightening screws without using washers can lead to compressing, cracking, or deforming the mounting surface.Figure 2.4 shows the mounting dimensions.Figure 2.4 CrossCheck CDPD Mounting Dimensions (in millimeters)4.8205.569.9
2     Installation18     CrossCheck CDPD Mobile Unit ManualThe installer must provide an appropriate selection of fasteners to secure the CrossCheck CDPD to the mounting surface.•When using self-tapping screws:–Select an appropriate size and length for the mounting surface. –The hole size leaves some allowance for holes drilled slightly off center from the specified dimensions.•When using machine screws:–Trimble recommends the use of number m3.5 (or number 6) pan-head machine screws.–Select a screw length, which extends a safe distance beyond the mounting surface.–Secure the screw with a washer and nut. Lock washers are recommended to prevent vehicle vibration from loosening the fasteners.2.6.1 Connecting CrossCheck CDPD to the Vehicle ChassisFor proper operation, the aluminum chassis of the CrossCheck CDPD must be connected electrically (grounded) to the chassis of the vehicle on which it installed. This can be accomplished in two ways:•Direct connection through metal screws (preferred)•Connection through the chassis ground wire
CrossCheck CDPD Mobile Unit Manual     19Installation     2Direct Connection through Mounting ScrewsTo mount the CrossCheck CDPD Mobile Unit on a metal surface that is permanently attached to the vehicle chassis (for example, the base of the trunk, or a mounting plate that is permanently attached to the chassis using metal screws):1. Fasten down the CrossCheck CDPD using metal screws driven through the metal tabs on the sides of the unit.2. Use star washers to ensure a reliable electrical contact to the metal tabs.3. Make sure the screws are tight, and that they make contact both with the metal on the CrossCheck CDPD and with the vehicle chassis.Note – If this direct connection through mounting screws method is used for chassis connection, then the chassis ground (pin 3 on the power and discrete I/O connector) on the CrossCheck CDPD should be left unconnected.Connection through the Chassis Ground WireIf the CrossCheck CDPD cannot be mounted directly on a metal surface that is attached to the vehicle, then use the chassis ground wire (pin 3 on the power and discrete I/O connector) to make electrical contact to the vehicle chassis:1. Use a wire with gauge of at least 18 AWG to connect the CrossCheck CDPD power connector to the vehicle chassis.2. Use a metal screw with a star washer to ensure a reliable electrical contact to the vehicle chassis.3. Keep the wire length as short as possible by selecting a connection point in the vehicle chassis that is close to the CrossCheck CDPD.
2     Installation20     CrossCheck CDPD Mobile Unit Manual2.7 Choosing the GPS Antenna Mounting LocationAntenna location is critical for optimum GPS performance. When choosing a location for the GPS antenna, consider these guidelines:•The antenna has an unobstructed view of the sky.•The antenna is safe from damage during normal vehicle operation and maintenance.•The antenna is not shielded from satellite signals by metal objects or other impenetrable materials.GPS signals can penetrate plastic, glass and tinted glass (except metallized glass), fiberglass, and plexiglass materials as long as the surface is relatively dry. GPS satellite signals do not penetrate metal or dense wood. Since GPS satellite signals can penetrate plastic, fiberglass, and glass, the GPS antenna can also be installed on a dashboard under a sloped windshield (if the windshield is not metallized) or under a plastic fender or bumper. These alternative locations are likely to offer less satellite coverage, since the metal components of the vehicle shield the antenna from portions of the sky.,Caution – Do not mount the GPS antenna under a metallized glass windshield, such as those used in some vehicles for window de-fogging or de-icing systems. However, the GPS antenna can be mounted under a tinted-glass windshield.Disclaimer - The instructions included in this section apply to the GPS antennas sold by Trimble and may not apply to third-party products. There are many other GPS antennas available on the market which may or may not be compatible with the CrossCheck CDPD, including combined GPS/CDPD cellular antenna solutions which have not yet been tested and certified by Trimble.
CrossCheck CDPD Mobile Unit Manual     21Installation     2Additional guidelines to follow include:•Mount the antenna in a horizontal position facing the sky, as shown in Figure 2.5.If the antenna must be located in the vicinity of other antennas (radio, cellular phone), locate the GPS antenna at least 46 cm (approximately 18 in.) away.•Avoid areas of high vibration (for example, engine hoods).For permanent installations, choose a location with access both above and below the antenna-mounting surface. This access is required for installing fasteners and for routing the antenna cable.Note – The standard length of magnetic-mount and bulkhead-mount GPS antenna cables supplied by Trimble is 5 m (approximately 16 ft.). Longer bulkhead-mount antenna cables can be prepared by the installer using the guidelines presented in Appendix A.

2     Installation30     CrossCheck CDPD Mobile Unit Manual2.8 Routing the GPS Antenna CableThe Magnetic GPS Antenna has an integral antenna cable, and the Miniature Bulkhead GPS Antennas have a separate 5-m (approximately 16 ft.) cable.If you are using one of the Miniature Bulkhead GPS Antennas, attach the antenna cable to the connector on the base of the antenna prior to routing the cable. When routing the cable, start at the antenna and choose the most direct path to the CrossCheck CDPD while observing the following guidelines:•Make sure that at least 5.1 cm (2 in.) of clearance exists between the CrossCheck CDPD's antenna connector and the nearest obstacle.•Make all cable bends, especially the bend at the SMA strain relief to the antenna connector, with at least 1.3 cm (0.5 in.) bend radius.•Provide an adequate service loop when routing the cable around vehicle hinges to ensure that the cable is not pinched when a hinged door opens or closes.•Make sure that the coax cable is not routed through areas where vehicle movement can abrade the cable surface.•Never coil the excess antenna cable, particularly the Magnetic GPS antenna cable. A coiled cable can act as an antenna and may receive interference.•Protect cables from exposure to corrosive fluids.Once the cable is routed and secured, attach the cable to the CrossCheck CDPD GPS (SMA) connector.

A minimum separation distance of 20 cm (approximately 8 in.) must be maintained between the radiating CDPD antenna and the user for this device to satisfy the RF Exposure requirements of the FCCDisclaimer - The instructions included in this section apply to the cellular antennas sold by Trimble and may not apply to third-party products. There are many other cellular antennas available on the market which may or may not be compatible with the CrossCheck CDPD, including combined GPS/Cellular antenna solutions which have not yet been tested and certified by Trimble. Although not as critical as GPS antenna placement, cellular antenna placement is also important. Mount the cellular whip antenna in a vertical orientation in a location where it is safe from damage during normal vehicle operation and maintenance. Automated vehicle washes may damage misplaced cellular antennas.
2     Installation32     CrossCheck CDPD Mobile Unit ManualMaintain a separation of at least 46 cm (or approximately 18 in.) between the cellular (or other) and GPS antennas (as illustrated in  Figure 2.12). Figure 2.12 Distance Between Antenna LocationsIn general, the greater the separation, the less chance of interference. For permanent antenna installations, choose a location with access both above and below the antenna mounting surface. This access is required for installing fasteners and for routing the antenna cable.Cellular phone dealers and installers are experts on cellular antenna placement. For some installations, the installer may substitute a glass-mount antenna for the antenna supplied by Trimble. Other antennas are acceptable as long as they conform to the requirements listed in Appendix A.Trimble offers two cellular antenna options for the CrossCheck CDPD.

For detailed cable routing guidelines, see Routing the Cellular Antenna Cable on page 2-38.2.9.2 Bulkhead Cellular Antenna (P/N 46730)The Bulkhead Cellular antenna is designed to be permanently mounted on the vehicle. To install the antenna:1. Drill a 19 mm (0.75 in) hole through the vehicle’s metal surface, and carefully use a deburring tool to remove burrs from the interior and exterior of the hole (see Figure 2.14). Figure 2.14 Burr Removal and O-Ring Seal Surface InspectionNote – Use care to avoid scratching the top surface of the hole. The o-ring on the cable mounting assembly must seal to the top surface of the vehicle’s sheet metal. Scratches may prevent the o-ring from sealing properly and could result in water leakage.2. Carefully remove the brass nut on the antenna cable mounting assembly, using care to avoid damaging the o-ring in the lower surface of the brass nut.Use a deburring tool to remove allburrs from the interior and exteriorof hole.Assure that the o-ring seatingsurface is free of scratches.

Cut the antenna cable to remove any extra slack, and install the TNC connector on the cable end, following the manufacturer’s recommendations. 2.9.3 Routing the Cellular Antenna CableThe Magnetic Cellular antenna has an integral antenna cable with a TNC-M connector. The Bulkhead Cellular antenna has a 5-m (16 ft.) integral antenna cable, which is terminated within the FME connector. After routing the Bulkhead Cellular cable, the cable must be fitted with a TNC (plug) connector, before attaching the cable to the CrossCheck CDPD. Instructions for installing the TNC connector are included with the antenna kit.The next step in the installation process is routing and connecting the antenna cable to the CrossCheck CDPD. When routing the cable, start at the antenna and choose the most direct path to the CrossCheck CDPD while avoiding the following hazards:•Excess coils in the antenna cable, particularly the cellular antenna cable. A coiled cable can act as an antenna and may receive interference.•Pinching the cable in a hinged door. Provide an adequate service loop when routing the cable around vehicle hinges.•Vehicle movement that might cause cable damage. Make sure that the coax cable is not routed through areas where vehicle movement can abrade the cable surface. •Exposure to environmental damage. If your cellular antenna cable is exposed to the environment, use tie wraps to secure the cellular antenna cable along its route to prevent wind damage. The Magnetic Cellular antenna cable is exposed to the environment. Since the wind could cause the cable to whip around, tie wraps should be used to secure the cable along its route.

2     Installation40     CrossCheck CDPD Mobile Unit Manual2.9.6 Inputs (IP0 to IP3)The CrossCheck CDPD supports four discrete inputs. The circuit diagram is shown in Figure 2.19.Figure 2.19 Input Circuit DiagramEach input floats to a logic-high state (inactive) when left open. Grounding an input causes a logic-low state (active). The CrossCheck CDPD can be configured to detect either logic-high or logic-low states at the inputs whenever the unit is powered on. Note – When the CrossCheck CDPD is powered off or in Power Management mode, it can only detect a logic-low (grounded) input. The discrete inputs are compatible with properly connected relays and switches or with standard 3.3 VDC logic levels. A properly connected relay or switch allows the input to float high in one position and grounds the input in the other position. Input Logic High: Open circuit or Vin > 2.4 VDCInput Logic Low: Vin < 0.6 VDCThe inputs must remain in either state for at least 200 milliseconds before the CrossCheck CDPD detects the input.Input Current (Max) Iin < 3 mA 1 mA is typical at 12 VDC.Input Protection: Protected up to at least VBatt continuous 3K330K0.1µFTo logic470pfInput 100K3.3V/10m/A

2     Installation50     CrossCheck CDPD Mobile Unit Manual2.11 Installing the EchoLDX KitThe EchoLDX Message Terminal can be installed in almost any type of vehicle. There are four steps in this procedure:1. Assemble the mounting pedestal.2. Mount the EchoLDX.3. Route the Power/Data cable.4. Connect the Power/Data cable to the CrossCheck CDPD.This section provides detailed installation instructions. 2.11.1 Configuration ParametersIn addition to the physical installation of the unit, configuration parameters can be set in each unit. Trimble recommends that if a configuration other than the factory setting is used, every unit in the fleet be given the same settings so that operation is consistent from vehicle to vehicle. EchoLDX configuration is discussed in the EchoLDX Message Terminal for CrossCheck CDPS and CrossCheck GPRS Installation and User’s Manual, Trimble Part Number 46667-00-ENG.2.11.2 Preparing for InstallationInventoryPrior to installation, confirm that you have received the required EchoLDX components:•EchoLDX Message Terminal•Power/Data cable•EchoLDX mounting pedestal kit (6") and mounting hardware•EchoLDX Quick Reference Guide
CrossCheck CDPD Mobile Unit Manual     51Installation     22.11.3 Choosing a LocationChoose a location for the EchoLDX where the display is easy to view and the keypad is readily accessible. When selecting a location, avoid exposure to extreme environmental conditions, including:•Excessive heat or cold •High vibration•Corrosive fluids and gases•Wet or damp locations Avoiding these conditions will improve the EchoLDX's performance and will ensure long-term reliability.All standard external connections to the EchoLDX are made through the connector (marked as 2) on the bottom of the unit.2.11.4 Mounting the Pedestal and Installing the EchoLDXThe EchoLDX can be attached to any flat surface using the mounting assembly. When positioning the assembly on the mounting surface, allow sufficient clearance beneath the EchoLDX for the Power/Data cable and on the right side of the unit for the maintenance and upgrade cable.To mount the pedestal:1. In the vehicle, select a mounting surface for the pedestal and temporarily place the MDT at the top on the pedestal. Ensure that the MDT is accessible by all possible operators. 2. Verify that there is clearance behind the mounting surface for the mounting screws. Choose the appropriate screws to install the pedestal to the mounting surface—either sheet metal screws or machine screws with lock nuts.3. Remove the MDT from the top of the pedestal.
2     Installation52     CrossCheck CDPD Mobile Unit Manual4. Place the pedestal base on the mounting surface and secure it with the appropriate screws.Figure 2.26 EchoLDX Attached to Mounting Assembly5. Affix the MDT to the mounting pedestal. Position the MDT and tighten all locking nuts.2.11.5 Routing the Power/Data CableThe next step in the installation process is to route the Power/Data cable from the EchoLDX to the CrossCheck. When routing the cable, avoid the following hazards:•Sharp bends or kinks in the cable•Hot surfaces (exhaust manifolds or stacks)•Rotating or reciprocating equipment
CrossCheck CDPD Mobile Unit Manual     53Installation     2•Sharp or abrasive surfaces•Door and window jambs•Corrosive fluids or gasesFollow these installation guidelines:•Choose the most direct path to the destination. •Leave enough excess cable for a service loop, to allow for removal of the EchoLDX and the CrossCheck.•Secure the cable to the pedestal with a cable tie.Power and Interface ConnectionsThe 2.90 m Power/Data cable provided with the EchoLDX includes a RJ-45 connector at one end and a serial connection and a DB9M at the other (as shown in Figure 2.27).Figure 2.27 EchoLDX Power/Data Cable
2     Installation54     CrossCheck CDPD Mobile Unit ManualThe cable connects to the CrossCheck through the DB9F connector labeled MDT. Power is supplied to the EchoLDX through the same data cable. Note – When the cable connection is complete, secure the cable using a cable tie. Table 3.1 describes the pin locations for the EchoLDX connector and the Power/Data cable, as viewed from the front of the connector.Table 2.4 EchoLDX Power/Data Cable Pinout ConnectionsCrossCheck MDT Port DB9Pin NumberEchoLDX Power/Data Cable Wire ColorEchoLDX Cable RJ-45 ConnectorPin Number Signal Name2 Green with white stripe wire 5 RxD, Input to MDT3 White with Brown stripe wire 4 TxD, Output to MDT5 Gray with white stripe wire 1 Ground7 Brown with white stripe wire 3RTS(Handshake output from MDT)8 White with green stripe wire 6CTS(Handshake input to MDT)9 White with Grey stripe wire 2Power81
CHAPTER3 Operation 3In this chapter:■Introduction■LED Indicators■GPS Receiver Operation
3     Operation56     CrossCheck CDPD Mobile Unit Manual3.1 IntroductionOnce you have installed and configured the CrossCheck CDPD, it is ready for operation. When power is applied, the CrossCheck CDPD operates automatically without user intervention, based on its firmware configuration.This chapter provides a basic overview of the CrossCheck CDPD’s operation, including:•LED Indicators•GPS Receiver•CDPD Transceiver3.2 LED IndicatorsThe CrossCheck CDPD includes two LED indicators: GPS and GSM. The firmware:•Continuously monitors the GPS receiver and the CrossCheck CDPD phone operation•Controls the two LED indicators
CrossCheck CDPD Mobile Unit Manual     57Operation     3Figure 3.1 shows the CrossCheck CDPD LED indicators. Figure 3.1 CrossCheck CDPD LED Indicators 3.2.1 LED StatesThe GPS and CDPD LED have three states: On, Off, and Blink. When both LED indicators are off, the CrossCheck CDPD’s power is off. When one or more LED indicators are on or blinking, the power is on.3.2.2 LED Power-On SequenceWhen the CrossCheck CDPD’s ignition input and power inputs are activated:•The LEDs blink once.•Both turn off for approximately 5 seconds.•Both remain on for approximately 2 seconds.Warning: All persons mustbe at least 20 cm fromantenna when transmitteroperating to meet FCC RFexposure requirements.GPS LED (Green)CDPD LED (Amber)
3     Operation58     CrossCheck CDPD Mobile Unit ManualThe GPS LED is on for approximately 2 seconds, then blinks until the first position fix is computed. During this period, the CDPD LED blinks until the unit is established in a CDPD area, at which point the CDPD LED turns off. When a call is active, the CDPD LED stays on for the duration of the call. 3.2.3 GPS and CDPD LED StatesTable 3.1 identifies the GPS LED states.Table 3.2 identifies the GSM LED states.Table 3.1 GPS LED States (Green LED)GPS LED State MeaningOn Computing GPS position fixes.Blink Not computing GPS position fixes.Off No power is available, or CrossCheck CDPD is in Sleep mode.Table 3.2 GSM LED States (Amber LED - when GPS green LED is on or flashing)CDPD LED State MeaningOn Data call in progress.Slow Blink No CDPD coverage is available; the CrossCheck CDPD is not registered with network.Off CDPD coverage is available; no call in progress.
CrossCheck CDPD Mobile Unit Manual     59Operation     33.3 GPS Receiver OperationAt power-up, the GPS receiver initializes with the last-known position. Using this information, the GPS receiver acquires satellite signals.•During the satellite acquisition process—which normally requires less than 2 minutes—the green GPS LED blinks. •Once three or more satellites are acquired, the GPS receiver computes positions, course, speed and time fixes, and the GPS LED remains on. A blinking GPS LED indicates that the GPS receiver is not tracking enough satellites to calculate a current position. This occurs occasionally when the vehicle is obscured from satellite signals by terrain, buildings, trees, tunnels or other structures. During this period—called satellite reacquisition—the GPS receiver continuously searches for the obscured satellites and expands its search to other satellites to continue position computations. For brief blockages, the GPS receiver normally reacquires a lost satellite signal and resumes position fixes in less than 2 seconds.
