1. Introduction

The GV65 Plus is a powerful GPS locator designed for vehicle or asset tracking. It has superior

receiving sensitivity, fast TTFF (Time to First Fix) and supports quad-band GSM frequencies

850/900/1800/1900. Its location can be monitored in real time or periodically tracked by a

backend server or other specified terminals. The GV65 Plus has multiple input/output interfaces

that can be used for monitoring or controlling external devices. Based on the integrated @Track

protocol, the GV65 Plus can communicate with a backend server through the GPRS/GSM

network to transfer reports of emergency, geo-fence boundary crossings, scheduled GPS position

and many other useful reporting features. Users can also use GV65 Plus to monitor the status of

a vehicle and control the vehicle by its external relay output. System integrators can easily set up

their tracking systems based on the full-featured @Track protocol.

3.5. Switch ON/OFF the Internal Backup Battery

The control bit of Backup Battery Switch in GTCFG is designed to control whether the backup

battery of GV65 Plus is working. As to the detailed explanation of GTCFG command, please refer

to related content in ”GV65 Plus @Track Air Interface Protocol”.

<Backup Battery Switch>: Control to switch on/off the backup battery.

l 0: switch off the backup battery.

l 1: switch on the backup battery.

<Backup Battery Charge Mode>: Control the charge mode of the backup battery.

l 0: When the main power supply is connected, charge the backup battery

on need.

l 1: When the main power supply is connected, only charge the backup

battery when ignition on is detected. The charge process will begin 3 minutes after

the ignition on. The charge process is stopped when ignition off.

Note:

1-The Backup Battery switch must be set to “OFF” when shipped on an aircraft.

2-When the Backup Battery switch is set to “OFF”; the battery cannot be charged or

discharged.

3-To reset the device: Remove the external DC power and second switch off the backup battery. And then supply the external power. When external power is resupplied or the

device is reignited, the backup battery switch is “ON” by default.

3.6. Install

There is a SMA GPS antenna connector on GV65 Plus. The GV65 Plus will automatically detect

and use an external antenna when connected.

Figure 9. Typical Ignition Detection

IGN (Pin9) is used for ignition detection. It is strongly recommended to connect this pin to

ignition key “RUN” position as shown above.

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 the backend server when ignition is on and enter power saving mode when ignition is off.

3.9.

There are two general purpose digital inputs on GV65 Plus. They are all negative triggers.

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, ensure the relay polarity is properly connected. If this diode is not internal, it should be added externally. A common diode such as a 1N4004 will work in most circumstances.
