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.

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 identied 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 identied 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
sufcient 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.

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 specied in Technical
Specications 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
