Basic Information

The AutoGRAPH-GSM/SL on-board vehicle tracking controller is a portable electronic recorder which tracks all movements of a vehicle by recording the time and the route in the form of geographic coordinates received from the satellites of global navigation system GPS (NAVSTAR) or GLONASS. In addition to coordinates, the device records a number of other parameters: speed, direction of movement, event counters, etc., as well as the states of digital inputs of the controller, external sensors and data buses. Collected data is transferred by a GSM 900/1800 mobile network operator by means of General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) to the dedicated server where they become available via the Internet for further analysis and processing by the AutoGRAPH Dispatch Software. The tracker may be used for any type of vehicles.

Data transfer is possible only when GSM 900/1800 mobile network operator, which supports General Packet Radio Service (GPRS), is available.

АвтоГРАФ-GSM/SL • USER MANUAL

The GSM modem is intended to provide a connection between the controller and the GSM mobile network. The GSM signal is received and transmitted via an external GSM antenna. The controller is equipped

with a SIM card to be identied by the GSM

network and to be able to access the services provided by the mobile network operator. The GSM modem performs several functions:

• Enables the device to access the GSM

network and to be identied by the network

using the SIM card.

• Enables data exchange (including transfer of track points) between the AutoGRAPH-GSM/SL controller and the server via TCP/IP through the Internet by means of General Packet Radio Service (GPRS).

• Enables exchange of information using control SMS messages and USSD requests (for example, for subscriber’s personal account monitoring).

GSM-modem

GPS / GLONASS Module

CPU

The GPS module is designed using a 72-channel highly sensitive receiver. It receives coded signals by means of external active GPS/GLONASS antenna from the satellites of the Global Positioning System (NAVSTAR) and GLONASS, and uses its internal computer to determine the geographical coordinates of the receiver position, the exact time, speed and direction of movement. Received data is transferred via NMEA protocol from the GPS module output to the central processing unit for further processing.

Since the Fastrax IT530M module supports a hybrid navigation system, which combines two navigation systems, such as GPS and GLONASS, it is able to identify all visible satellites of both navigation systems automatically. As a result, the information being received is highly accurate and available even in the case of very poor visibility of satellites.

The central processing unit is the core of the AutoGRAPH-GSM/SL controller, which unites all of the system components together and ensures their interaction in accordance with the program stored in the device. The processing unit is a high-speed single-chip microcomputer able to perform computations of at a speed and accuracy level that is

sufcient to meet various navigation and

service challenges. The custom rmware,

developed by TechnoKom specialists, enables the CPU to receive data from the different modules of the system, to perform logical and mathematical processing of the data and to control the modules as appropriate. It should be noted that the

functional capability of the controller rmware

is being constantly enhanced and extended so as to provide users with new and improved features and options.

АвтоГРАФ-GSM/SL • USER MANUAL

The Non-Volatile FLASH memory module serves as a black box storage device to store the collected data. The FLASH memory module is designed to store up to 270,000 records for up to 10 years – even when the device is powered off. The FLASH memory module in the AutoGRAPH-GSM/SL is built on the basis of the ring buffer principle. This means that new

records will be written over the oldest records rst, ensuring that the most recent data is

always available.

Non-Volatile FLASH Memory Module

Power Supply Driver

The power supply driver with protection circuits generates all of the necessary supply voltages for controller components. The primary power supply input ensures operation at vehicle system voltage of 10-30 V, which makes it possible to use the controller on the majority of vehicles without employing any additional voltage regulation.

Furthermore, the power supply driver protects the controller against polarity reversal, voltage overload, interference, etc. A resettable fuse is installed in the supply circuit of the printed circuit board in order to provide extra protection.

Long-term exposure of the controller to the maximum values of the supply circuit may cause irreparable damage to the protection circuits due to overheating or disruption. This may lead to failure of the device. DO NOT exceed the maximum values stated. Operating voltage range and maximum supply voltage values are specied in Technical Specications section.

Inputs / Outputs

The I/O block is intended for monitoring and measuring the parameters of external equipment and devices, as well as for controlling of various actuators and warning devices. The I/O block is divided into two sections:

Digital inputs.

These inputs have two states: “1” and “0”, and are able to show a change of input state, count pulses and measure frequency. The tracker has one active low and one active high digital inputs. Logic of the discrete inputs operation is shown in the table below:

Physical state of the input

Logic state

Active low input Active high input High (connected to supply voltage) 1 1 Open-Circuit 1 0 Low (connected to ground) 0 0

IMPORTANT

АвтоГРАФ-GSM/SL • USER MANUAL

Furthermore, the controller is equipped with one digital high-impedance active high input with logic levels independent of the supply voltage of the device connected to this input.

Operation modes of the digital inputs are fully congurable and include:

• Normal input. In this mode, the digital inputs are monitored. When the input state changes, the time and location data is stored into the device memory. Normal mode is useful for recording the time of different sensors’ activation and for monitoring the performance of equipment and mechanisms, such as an alarm button, oil pressure sensor, ignition system, passenger presence sensor, security alarm triggering, opening of doors, limit switches of various special-purpose and construction machinery mechanisms, etc. This mode also enables the device to perform unscheduled transmission of data to the server via GPRS

upon input state changes, as well as to send an SMS message to the specied phone

number.

• Storage counter. This mode is intended to track the input switching states and to count

various events. This may include counting of pulses from fuel-ow pulse output sensor (of

DRT-5 or VZO type), passenger count, speed sensor, tipper body lift sensor, etc. In storage counter mode, the number of pulses from each sensor is stored in memory. The location data is not stored.

• Periodic counter. This mode is intended for counting of pulses within one minute. Periodic counter mode is used for receive the readings of sensors, which transmit measured values in pulse bursts in amounts proportional to the measured value. This mode is used, for example, for connecting fuel level, temperature and engine speed sensors with pulse outputs. This mode does not involve recording of a track point into the storage memory when the input state changes.

• Frequency. This mode is intended for sensors with frequency outputs. The device is capable of measuring frequencies of 0 – 1,500 Hz. Frequency mode is used, for example, for fuel level sensors with frequency outputs, engine and shaft speed sensors, proximity sensors etc.

Digital output

Digital output is intended to control various external actuators, as well as to activate warning devices. The controller has one programmable open collector digital output. Controlling of the discrete output (monitoring of its state) may be performed by means of control SMS messages or commands transmitted by the server via GPRS. Using control commands, the customer can either switch the output state, which will be held up till the next control command, or send a pulse of a certain duration (from 1 to 10 seconds) to switch the output on for the pulse duration. Furthermore, the discrete output may serve to indicate cases of exceeding speed limits, acceleration, entry to and exit from control points, enabling of security functions etc.

Note that logic states of the two inputs dier in open-circuit state (see the table above). This must be taken into account when making connections.

IMPORTANT

АвтоГРАФ-GSM/SL • USER MANUAL

NOTE

For detailed information on control commands see the “Control and conguration commands for AutoGRAPH-GSM” document.

USB Port

The USB port embedded into controller is intended to:

• congure and check the performance of the controller by means of the conguration program – GSMConf;

• read data from the device so as to deliver them to the AutoGRAPH Dispatch Software;

• update processor microcode (rmware) of the device;

• use the controller in the “GPS mouse” mode.

When using the device as a GPS mouse, the tracker, which is connected to the USB port of

a PC, laptop or PDA with a data cable via virtual serial port (СОМ port), transmits the location

data in RMC format through the NMEA protocol once per second. This enables the users to locate the object equipped with an AutoGRAPH-GSM-SL using software such as OziExplorer, Google Earth Plus/Pro, 2GIS for PC 3.0, Garmin, Navitel and many others. For details please refer to “Using the GPS mouse” document.

NOTE

For detailed information on GPS mouse mode see “AutoGRAPH-GSM controller: GPS mouse mode” document.

The AutoGRAPH-GSM/SL is equipped with 3-axis digital accelerometer with wide range of full scales from ±2g to ±16g intended to detect motion, determine the tracker’s orientation,

measure vibration level, etc. The tracker can be set up to send a notication to a preset

telephone number or data to a preset server, when detecting the acceleration exceeding a preset threshold.

АвтоГРАФ-GSM/SL • USER MANUAL

RS-485 (TIA / EIA-485-A)

RS-485 (TIA / EIA-485-A) is a data transfer standard for data transmission via a two-wire serial channel. This bus serves to simultaneously connect up to 32 different devices and sensors

compatible with the controller’s software (rmware) by two wires. The bus enables users to

connect up to 8 fuel level LLS sensors, as well as Escort-TD, Strela-D485, DUT-E-485, DT7.3-

06, UZI-1.х and other sensors, and some extra expansion modules to extend the controller’s functions, e.g. display for indication and messaging with a vehicle driver, passenger trafc

metering unit, expansion modules for discrete and analog inputs, barometrical altimeter, RS232/RS-485 converters, etc.

The RS-485 port of the AutoGRAPH-GSM/SL controller supports MODBUS protocol that enables the users to connect the controller to the thermal sensors, which transmit data via this protocol.

CAN Bus (SAE J1939/FMS)

The CAN bus is an industrial network standard primarily designed for interconnection of various actuators and sensors in a single network. It is used in the automotive industry as a management and control line. The CAN interface of the controller may be connected to the CAN bus of a vehicle and is intended for use with SAE J1939 / FMS standard protocol. This standard is widely used in vehicles of well-known truck manufacturers, such as SCANIA, MAN, VOLVO, DAF, IVEKO, RENAULT, MERCEDES (DaimlerChrysler), KAMAZ and MAZ trucks of latest models etc. Use of the two-wire CAN bus enables quick connection and allows access to a great number of parameters directly from the sensors of vehicles.

Using the CAN bus, the following information would become available: vehicle speed, cruise control status, accelerator pedal position, brakes and clutch switch statuses, fuel consumption, fuel level in tanks (up to 6 sensors), engine speed, service distance, engine hours, engine coolant temperature, oil and fuel temperatures, total vehicle distance and vehicle distance per day and axle weight. Furthermore, it enables monitoring of some custom parameters not covered by SAE J1939 / FMS standard.

АвтоГРАФ-GSM/SL • USER MANUAL

AutoGRAPH-GSM/SL controllers installed on vehicles constantly receive coded signals from Global Positioning System (NAVSTAR) and GLONASS satellites. These signals are used to determine exact coordinates of the vehicle location.

The coordinates are written to the nonvolatile memory of the AutoGRAPH-GSM/ SL controller, either on a regular basis or adaptively. Furthermore, the storage memory records and stores the statuses of various sensors connected to the tracker or data buses, and other parameters required by the software.

Either on a regular basis or upon occurrence of a preset event, the collected data is transferred to the dedicated AutoGRAPH server over the Internet using General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) supported by a GSM mobile network operator.

The server is a computer running Microsoft Windows Server or Linux/FreeBSD with an Internet connection, permanent IP-address and reliable data storage device. The server is responsible for receiving data from AutoGRAPH-GSM/SL controllers, storing the data and transmission upon request to

the dispatcher stations. Key les are used to

provide data access security on the server.

Dispatcher workstations are personal computers or laptops with the AutoGRAPH dispatch software installed (and with the

key les required for particular vehicles)

that has either Internet access or server connection via LAN. An Internet connection and computer with the Dispatch Software will enable users to obtain data from anywhere in the world. Easy deployment of the Dispatch Software without the need to install third-party database support enables users to immediately create new dispatcher workstations with any PC running MS Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7/8. The number of workstations is unlimited. The Dispatch Software is completely free of charge and the latest version may be downloaded from the

ofcial website of TechnoKom: http://www.

tk-chel.ru.

Mobile users can easily track vehicle movement in real-time using WEB based AutoGRAPH.WEB Dispatch Software run on any mobile device connected to the Internet.

Upon the user’s request or on a regular basis the dispatcher workstation connects to the server to update data on vehicles. Depending on the AutoGRAPH server software version, access to the data is offered by means

of the key les stored in the dispatcher

workstation or using personal login and password. The received data is stored in a local folder on the dispatcher workstation that enables processing of the data without being connected to the server. Furthermore,

to reduce the web trafc, the dispatching

network may be organized in such a way as to send any missing data through the Internet to only one workstation, while all other users may use these downloaded data via LAN by retrieving them from the local data folder of the workstation. The users may use this data to track the vehicles on a map, browse through various parameters, events and readings of various sensors. In addition, it is possible to generate various types of reports and charts both for each particular vehicle and in groups.

To interact with various external applications

and handlers (including 1С), the AutoGRAPH

Software incorporates OLE server application (COM server) which enables data exchange between the AutoGRAPH Software and the programs written in the majority of existing programming languages which support OLEenabled data exchange, as well as programs and systems based on their own embedded

programming language (1С Enterprise, MS Ofce, various databases, etc.). Furthermore,

there is an option to upload all tracking data and reports in the form of MS Excel, DBF

and CSV les, as well as to use an external

customizable reporting module which allows users not only to generate a large number of reports with fully customized layout, data and

АвтоГРАФ-GSM/SL • USER MANUAL

charts to be presented, but also to save them in many different formats to enable further processing, sending or presentation: PDF,

Open Ofce ODS, Open Ofce ODT, MS

Excel (OLE), MS Excel (XML), XML, RTF, HTML, TEXT, CSV, BMP, JPEG, TIFF, GIF.

Among other things, dispatcher workstations can change a range of the AutoGRAPHGSM/SL parameters by sending control SMS commands via a data server or using a

mobile phone, that enables them to perform

polling and exible conguration of the

system without taking the controllers out of the vehicles.

Control SMS commands and preset events enables sending of vehicle location

coordinates and various notication

messages to an ordinary cell phone of GSM standard by means of SMS messages.

It should be noted that this brief description covers just one of the simple operation schemes of the vehicle tracking system based on AutoGRAPH-GSM/SL hardware and software. The device has a range of customizations available to tailor the product to the users’ needs.

There are various third-party software solutions that can be interfaced with the AutoGRAPH-GSM/ SL, which may support some specic functionality.

To obtain detailed information on the implementation of particular features for customization of the monitoring system in accordance with your needs, please contact your regional authorized representative of TechnoKom and the manufacturer’s technical support service.

Installation of SIM-cards

In order to connect the AutoGRAPH-GSM/SL controller to the GSM mobile network, it is necessary to install one or two SIM cards.

To insert SIM-cards:

• Unscrew the four fastening screws and remove the back cover of the tracker.

• The AutoGRAPH-GSM/SL supports two SIM cards.

• Insert a SIM card in the lower retaining slot of the SIM card holder with the card’s contacts

facing the PCB (see g.1). Be sure that the card’s keying matches the key on the PCB (see g.2).

• If necessary, insert a second SIM card in the upper retaining slot of the SIM card holder

with the card’s contacts facing the PCB (see g.3). Be sure that the card’s keying matches the key on the PCB (see g.4).

• When the SIM cards are connected place the back cover back and tighten the four fastening screws.

The SIM card installed in the lower retaining slot of the SIM card holder is the primary card. When switched on, the AutoGRAPH-GSM/SL controller will operate with this SIM card. The SIM card installed in the upper retaining slot of the SIM card holder is the backup card. The tracker will switch to the backup SIM card when the primary one is unavailable (disabled, damaged or not inserted).

Do a test of a new SIM card in a cell phone before you install it into the controller. This ensures that GPRS / SMS / USSD services are enabled and operate properly, the PIN code matches the code preset in the controller (in order to prevent locking), and a personal account associated with the SIM card has the sucient balance for successful operation of the services.

IMPORTANT

Always ground yourself before handling the PCB i.e. by wearing an ESD wrist strap or touching a metal computer chassis.

Connection Diagram for Active Low Digital Input Inductive Load Circuit:

Sometimes, it is necessary to integrate the controller’s digital input into a circuit with an inductive load, such as a relay winding, solenoid valve or any other device that has an inductance coil. When an inductive load is being disconnected, stored current must be dissipated, this causes a self-induced electromotive force of inversed polarity (back EMF) that may damage the controller. To prevent this, use one of the following protection options if an inductive load is being applied to the controller:

1. Protective diode (g. 1) – to be installed in parallel to the inductive load. In this case, forward current of the protective diode (Ifw) should be at least 1.5 • I

holding, coil

. If the coil

holding current is unknown or uncertain, use the option with safety relay protection.

2. Safety relay (g. 2) – to be installed in parallel to the inductive load. In this case, the safety relay contacts are used for closing the controller’s input on ground.
