1. Introduction
The GV300CAN is a compact GPS tracker designed for a wide variety of vehicle tracking
applications. It has multiple digital/analog I/O interfaces that can be used for monitoring or
controlling external devices. At the same time, it has integrated CAN and J1708 which decodes
information from vehicles digital buses (CANbus and J1708).It also includes a 1-wire interface
used for driver ID and temperature monitoring. Its built-in GPS receiver has superior sensitivity
and fast time to first fix. Its dual band GPRSsubsystem supports 850/1900 MHz
allowing the GV300CAN's location to be monitored in real time or periodically tracked by a
backend server and mobile devices. Its built-in 3-axis accelerometer allows motion detection and
extends 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, driving behavior, low battery and scheduled GPS position.

3.5. SYNC Switch
The switch was used to Synchronize the car model. You can push the switch to the left as the
Arrow direction,and hold it approximately 3 seconds to Synchronize the car model。
Figure 6.
Note:
If device is configured for any car, synchronization can be started in the following way:
1. Make sure the CAN function is enabled before you push the SYNC switch.
2. Connect the power for the device. The CAN LED lights red.
3. Press the button on the front panel of the device (you can hold it while connecting power
supply).
4. After approximately 8 seconds, the CAN light will light green. Then release the button.
After starting the device, sync CAN light blinks red. After several seconds (up to half a minute),
synchronization is done and:
- if the green CAN light lights – car has been synchronized successfully, turn the power supply off
and on after 5 seconds - now the device is synchronized with the car.
- if the CAN light flashes alternating green / red - it means an invalid connection to the CAN-bus.
Make sure the CAN-bus wires are not swapped (CAN-H against CANL), and the ignition is turned
on. If these conditions are met – the device is not connected to any CAN-bus.
- if the red CAN light - CAN bus connection is correct, but the car has not been recognized. The
current version of the software will not work with this car model.
CAN-bus synchronization may also be performed through the serial port.
On request, the device may be delivered with the proper configuration for the selected car
model.

3.7. Power Connection
VIN (PIN11)/GND (PIN6) is the power input pin. 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 or 24V systems
without the need for external transformers.

IGN (Pin3) 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 the power saving mode when ignition is off.
3.9. Digital Inputs
There are two general purpose digital inputs on GV300CAN. They are all negative triggers.

3.11. Digital Outputs
There are two digital outputs on GV300CAN. All are of open drain type and the maximum drain
current is 150 mA. Each output has the built-in over current PTC resettable fuse.

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

3.12. Serial Port/UART Interface
There are two lines dedicated to the Serial Port/UART interface (TXD and RXD). TXD/RXD is
standard RS232 signal.

3.13. 1-Wire device Connection
It has 1-wire bus on GV300CAN, which supports temperature sensors and iButton. The
bus includes 3 signals, namely, VDD-1W, DATA-1W and GND. VDD-1W is the power
output for 1-wire device, and DATA-1W is the data signal, with which GV300CAN can get
information from 1-wire device.
