GENERAL
Arnavi 5 navigation controller (hereinafter referred to as ‘tracker’) is designed for the
remote monitoring of moving objects, with the option to operate with two monitoring servers, and
can be used in conjunction with any compatible software package.
Supported data transfer protocols to the server:
•Arnavi(INTERNAL) –our open protocol, available for integration.
•EGTS –Era Glonass Telematics Standard.
To ensure enhanced control over the condition of the vehicle or the equipment installed on
the vehicle, the device can be connected with discrete (on/off), analogue, and pulse-frequency
sensors (fuel consumption, passenger availability, temperature, and other sensors).
Connection of digital sensors via RS232, RS485 and 1-WIRE interfaces is envisaged.
Four programmable ‘open drain’ outputs allow for remote control of systems such as auto-
start or engine lock.
Internal support of the CAN bus according to the standard J1939 Protocol is implemented.
It is also possible to connect an external CAN module via RS232 or RS485 interfaces. More than
20 parameters are read: total fuel consumption and level, total mileage, operating time, engine
rpm speed and temperature, speed, axle loads, accident controllers, etc.
The built-in backup battery ensures the autonomous operation of the device when the
vehicle battery goes off with alerting about this event. This feature is widely used for security and
anti-theft purposes.
The built-in motion (acceleration) sensor is used in intelligent energy-saving algorithms
and can also be used to determine the vehicle parking places.
The tracker can record the level of the GSM signal, identify base stations and the accuracy
of navigation data at the moment of recording each coordinate point.
The firmware update feature without disassembling from the facility and without the need
for direct access to the device (via GSM) is available.
The housing is made of plastic in accordance with the requirements of European electrical
and fire safety standards.
The tracker can operate in the temperature range from -40 to +80 degrees Celsius (storage
temperature of up to -45 to +85 degrees Celsius) and is suitable for installation on passenger
vehicles with 12 V in-vehicle network, heavy vehicles with 24 V in-vehicle network as well as on
any other vehicles.
The permissible voltage is 7 to 44 V. There is protection against reverse polarity, short-
term voltage surges of no more than 300V and also protection of the built-in battery from
overcharging.
For more information about the possibility of connecting various external sensors, please
contact the Support Service at s[email protected].

TRACKER SETTING
1.WEB CONFIGURATOR
For the remote configuration of the tracker, a cloud service, web configurator, is used. It allows
remotely configuring a device or group of devices without physical connection to the tracker via a cable
or adapter.
In addition, the web configurator service supports the function of the remote updating of device
software.
To work with the web configurator, you will need an account (login/password), which you can
always get receive at the Support Service at [e-mail].
In any Internet browser, type http://ws.arusnavi.ru and access your personal section, where you
make the following steps to configure the device:
Step 1 –Through the search, at the bottom left corner, find the desired device by ID or IMEI
Step 2 –Click on the icon ‘ ’ –go to the tracker settings

USER MANUAL [1.4]
Page 8
Step 3 –‘Device data’ section displays general information: ID, IMEI, type, firmware version.
Step 4 –‘Server settings’ section.
It is necessary to enter the address, port of the monitoring server, select the protocol type
(INTERNAL or EGTS) and, if necessary, assign the server ID and password. Also, if necessary, you can
assign a second address of the monitoring server.

USER MANUAL [1.4]
Page 9
Note: In the simplest case of setting the device only for the purpose of determining the location
of the mobile object (vehicle) without the use of inputs/outputs and other interfaces, it is enough to
select only the first two points
‘Package structures’: GPS/GLONASS coordinates and GPS/GLONASS settings. In this case, the data
traffic from the device to the server will be minimal, which will have a positive impact on the cost of
cellular communication.
Step 5 –For the efficient transmission of data to the server with consideration of traffic compression,
select the dataset to be transmitted to the server in ‘Packet structure’ section.
Step 6 –‘Transmit track points and sensor values’ section. This section allows configuring the
parameters of the movement trajectory processing.

USER MANUAL [1.4]
Page 10
ATTENTION: EVENTS BY ANGLE, SPEED AND DISTANCE WILL ONLY BE SENT
DURING THE MOVEMENT OF THE VEHICLE, I.E. WHEN THE TERMS ‘FREEZE
COORDINATES WHEN PARKED’ WILL BE VALID.
<If course change of –angle> –If the change of the angle between the routing of the last
position sent to the server and the current routing exceeds the specified value, the current position will
be sent to the server. Unit of measure: degree.
<If speed change of –speed> –If the change between the speed at the moment of determining
the last position sent to the server and the current speed exceeds the specified value, the current position
will be sent to the server.
<Not less than every –distance> –If the distance between the last position sent to the server
and the current position exceeds the specified value, the current position will be sent to the server. Unit
of measure: metre.
<Interval at parking –time> –The time interval between the last sending of data to the server
and the next sending of data sent to the server, when at the parking position. Unit of measure: second.
<Do not update coordinates on parking> –The condition under which the coordinates of the
location will be fixed and remain unchanged (freeze coordinates) –Parking.
We recommend to leave the default settings.
Step 7 –‘Mode of operation I/O’ section allows configuring digital interfaces and digital
inputs/outputs.

USER MANUAL [1.4]

When inserting a single SIM card, use the upper compartment of the holder –SIM card #1 (main).
Step 8 –‘Settings SIM card’ section
The board has a holder for two SIM cards and two heat-resistant SIM chips. SIM
card #1 (main) is installed in the upper compartment of the holder and
SIM card #2 (backup) is installed in the lower compartment of the holder.
The tracker initially establishes a connection via SIM card #1. If the connection to the server fails
after several attempts or SIM card #1 is missing, the tracker switches to SIM card #2 and tries to connect
to the server again.

USER MANUAL [1.4]
