Introduction
GalileoSky Ltd. produces GALILEOSKY terminals for GPS and GLONASS monitoring of vehicles in real time.
The Terminals determine the mobile object location recording the time and route as points with
geographical coordinates and send the data to the server to be further processed and sent to the traffic
controller panel.
In addition, a number of other vehicle parameters are recorded: the state of analog and discrete inputs of
the terminal, the state of digital interfaces.
The Terminals can be used in any vehicle.
Information is sent to the server
through GPRS or through satellite
Iridium communication and then
through the Internet to the operator
panel.
To prevent the data from disappearing
when there is no GSM signal each
GALILEOSKY terminal has an internal
nonvolatile FLASH memory.
The device also has a built-in battery,
which allows it running for 8 hours.

7Terminal units performance
7.1 Discrete-analog inputs (DAI)
To attach external sensors the Terminal has 6 discrete-analog inputs which are pulse-frequency at the same
time. Each input’s function is set in the Terminal settings (sections Discrete-analog inputs setting and
Inputs/outputs). In Contacts description inputs are designated as IN0, IN1, IN2, IN3, IN4, IN5.
Each input saves its values to the nonvolatile memory, i.e. in case the channel is set to be a pulse one, the
pulse number value will be restored after resetting the device.
Feature

Maximum measured voltage
33 V
Analog inputs resolution
33mV
Maximum transmitted signal frequency
3,5 kHz (synchronous measuring at 1 input)
2 kHz (measuring at 2 inputs)
1 kHz (measuring at 6 inputs)
DAI has the following settings:
Parameter
Explanation
Filter type (input
function)
0 - arithmetical average (also discrete input state is generated);
1 - pulse count;
2 - frequency input;
3 - pulse count from two synchronous connected sensors.
Filter length to
calculate the mean
value
The greater this parameter, the more slowly the device responds to the input signal
change. With filter length equal to 1 - averaging does not happen.
Set this parameter to 1 for frequency inputs.
It is necessary to set this parameter to 1 for pulse inputs. If the Terminal counts
extra pulses, the filter length should be increased by one and accuracy estimated.
Ranges for
response/
nonresponse areas
(logical 1 and 0)
To process discrete signals, discrete signal response/nonresponse range should be
set where signals equal to one and zero. Discrete input statuses should be seen in
the field Status Of Inputs, but not in the Input voltage. (Table 2. GalileoSky protocol
tags).
While counting pulses or frequency, it is necessary to put the value equal to half the
pulse value into all the fields of the given group. (example: the pulses' amplitude is
5000 mV, so all the fields must take the value 2500 mV)
While counting pulses from 2 synchronously connected sensors, response zone
limits must be the same and equal to half of pulse value at response of one of the
sensors. Non-response zone limits are equal to half of pulse value at two sensors
simultaneous response.

GALILEOSKY GLONASS/GPS Satellite v4.0 (0223) User’s manual
GalileoSky Ltd. Page 13
7.1.1 Pulse count
In case of a renewable counter the maximum pulse number can be 65535, after that the number is reset to
zero.
If there is pulse at input, the correspondent bit will be set in Status of Inputs field, and a point will be
recorded. If there is no another pulse for 30 seconds, the bit returns to 0.
7.1.2 Mean value and discrete event generation
Let us consider the example with the following zero input setting (see the left-hand figure):
Filter type: 0;
Filter length: 5;
Logical one zone range is 8-33V;
Logical zero zone range is 0-3V.
The mean value is calculated continuously and
is put into the corresponding field IN0.
At the same time, it is continuously checked
whether the calculated value belongs to the
given range.
If it is in the range 8-33V, the corresponding
bit will find itself the Status of Inputs field and
a point will be recorded.
At value coming into the indifference zone
(3V-8V), the former bit value will be saved to
the Status of Inputs field.
If the value is in the logical zero zone (0V-3V),
the corresponding bit in the Status of Inputs
field is reset.
Thus, we can see that the given bit changes its
state only in the logical one/logical zero zone
Example2.
In contrast to example 1 (see the right-hand
figure) the logical one zone and the logical
zero zone have changed places.
In the same way it is possible to set zones of
response and non-response for the Terminal`s
power supply voltage (POWINCFG command, section
Analog-discrete inputs setting). The state of discrete signal
for input can be identified according to the 8th bit of the
Status of the device field.
7.1.3 Frequency count
To measure frequency in some sensors it is necessary to connect the sensor frequency output to the sensor
positive power supply via a 1kOhm resistor. Otherwise, frequency count is impossible.
7.1.4 Pulse count from two synchronously connected sensors
The Terminal allows connection of 2 pulse sensors on one input, in this case, pulse fronts number is count,
i.e. for each sensor response counter value increases by 2. Connection circuit details are given in section
Connection of Ш2 passengers flow registration sensors.

7.2 Determination of strike and incline
All devices can determine the Terminal strike and incline.
Accelerometer axis directions:
Y
Z
To determine strike:
1. Install the Terminal so as one of the accelerometer axis looks vertically, it will exclude false
detections on road bumps;
2. Turn on strike and incline determination by SHOCK command (section Track parameters setting).
For example, if Z axis is vertical: SHOCK 3,90,5,1200.
A strike is an acceleration increase in horizontal plane; the correspondent bit is put in the device state field
(Table 3. Explanation of device state field) and strike coordinates are recorded.
To determine incline:
1. Install the Terminal in vehicle;
2. By SHOCK command set maximum allowable incline angle and allowable time of this angle
exceeding. For example, a maximum angle is 20º, allowable exceed time is 5 seconds: SHOCK
3,20,5,1200.
On the Terminal homing position change in a vehicle, SHOCK command should be given to adopt the
Terminal to a new position.
7.3 Economical driving "EcoDrive" and determination of the driving style
The Terminal can detect rapid acceleration, braking, harsh turns and strikes on bumps. For correct
operation of this function, the terminal must detect its orientation in space with respect to the vehicle (the
vehicle´s running direction and the direction in respect to the ground). The driving style data are stored
only if dynamic archive is enabled (FLASHARCHIVE 1 command).
The default orientation of the terminal:
Driving direction
Direction to the ground
X

GALILEOSKY GLONASS/GPS Satellite v4.0 (0223) User’s manual
GalileoSky Ltd. Page 15
If the terminal cannot be installed as illustrated by the picture, user-defined installation may be performed
with the subsequent calibration of orientation.
To determine the position of the terminal in respect to the vehicle, perform the following steps:
1. Install the Terminal to ensure its rigid link with the vehicle’s body;
2. Ensure the horizontal position of the vehicle;
3. Execute the shock 0 command, which will determine the direction of the terminal to the ground;
4. Start driving the vehicle at a speed exceeding 20 km/h; choose straight-line sections of the road
while driving and keep performing acceleration and braking; in a few minutes the Terminal will
perform determination of the running direction.
Data on the driving style can be sent out using the mainpackbit 174,1 command.
7.4 Data archiving to the external micro SD card
To create a backup on the external micro-SD card it is necessary to insert it into the Terminal. If the need
arises, it can be ejected from the Terminal and the data can be read in a file manager or explorer with a
card reader. It is also possible to send the archive to the server. CSV-files can be opened both with a text
editor and Microsoft Excel. The saved data will be ordered in the following way:
MSD:\Track\
20100201.csv
20100202.csv
...
20100331.csv
If there isn’t enough space on the micro-SD card, the Terminal will delete the oldest files from the Track
folder.

7.5 Autoinformer function
Autoinformer function may be used for automatic (without participation of the driver) public transport
stops announcement with the use of a satellite navigation system.
The main difference from analogous systems is taking into account vehicle movement direction, thereby
excluding false operation at other stops located in the same geographic area.
To use autoinformer it is necessary:
1. Attach the speaker to the Terminal (section Connecting autoinformer speaker).
2. Set the micro-SD card:
a. Place sound files in format: wav, 16 kHz, mono, 16 bit to the card root folder. The file name
must not exceed 20 symbols, including the extension, for example, PARKOVIJ.wav. The
record length is recommended within 4 minutes (in case of exceeding, at the following file
reproduction crackle may appear);
b. Create folders with routes names in the card root folder. The smallest number of routes is
1.
c. It is necessary to place the BusLine.txt file to the route folders, where response areas and
areas linkage to the sound files are stored.
The format of one zone:
Latitude;
Longitude;
Direction angle α (the angle between the meridian and a vehicle direction);
Spread for the direction angle Δ (see the diagram below);
Outer radius of Rext response zone;
Inner radius of Rint response zone;
Sound file name corresponding to this zone.
It is convenient to fill in the information for zones from Device tab of the Configurator while going along the
route. By route forming it is necessary to indicate separate zones for stops in both directions even if the
stops are opposite each other.

GALILEOSKY GLONASS/GPS Satellite v4.0 (0223) User’s manual
GalileoSky Ltd. Page 17
Latitude and longitude values are entered through the point “.” (For example: 57.9842) where the value
after point –is degree fractions. To transfer minutes into degree fractions (Xdegr.Ymin.) use the following
expression Xdegr. = Ymin./60. For example: 57 degr. 55.4513min = 57.924188 degr.
Explanatory diagram
3. Activate the autoinformer function with the Autoinformer command. (section Autoinformer
setting).
4. Insert a micro-SD card into the Terminal and reset it with the Reset command. After the Terminal
resetting the function will be activated.
In the process of sound files playback there is a 5 seconds pause between adjacent files.

7.6 Signaling function
Signaling function allows assigning the response to:
1. analog input status change;
2. strikes and inclines (accelerometer data);
3. location change;
4. speeding;
5. iButton or RFID card connection.
The Terminal can react by inverting outputs status, sending an output pulse, sending SMS, making a preset
number(s) telephone call, taking a picture or recording the point.
The settings that users can change are as follows (section Signaling mode setting):
1. the time when input signals are not processed (“green wave”), with signaling enabled;
2. the maximum time of alert mode after which the Terminal will automatically change into an alarm
system mode;
3. the time between activation and change to the alert mode individual for each input;
4. an SMS text message when changing to the alert mode individual for each input;
5. the time between enabling the alert mode and status change individual for each input.
Alarm mode states change diagram
Alarm system activation and deactivation can be made by input, SMS or server message, using the iButton
key previously programmed in the Terminal (section Digital inputs setting). Commands prevail over inputs
states. Input activation depends on the settings given by the InCfg command (section Analog-discrete
inputs setting), the level outputs are inverted with respect to is set by the Out command (section Transistor
outputs setting).

7.7 Monitoring data transmission
Terminal allows specifying the list of preferred GSM-networks. The main priority is given to the networks
from the beginning of the list. Every network is specified with country’s code and network operator’s code.
Terminal supports up to 30 networks (OPS0 command, section Data transmission settings). If it’s impossible
to connect to one of the preferred GSM-networks, the Terminal connects to any network but doesn’t
establish connection to the server, thus voice communication and SMS will be available according to a tariff
of the installed SIM-card.
The Terminal allows data transmission to the main and backup monitoring server via GSM. If there only
transfer to the main server is set, continuous connection will be maintained. If there transfer to both
servers is set, the Terminal is connected to the main server and then after the set period of time it breaks
the communication and connects to the backup server and etc. The Terminal accounts transmitted data
separately for each server, thus both will receive full archive with the track.
Using EGTS protocol, the Terminal number parameter (ID command, section Data transmission settings)
specify the object number by the authentication.
Transmitted data may be coded; XTEA3 algorithm (http://tomstdenis.tripod.com/xtea.pdf). Commands,
responses and photos are not coded. The data are archived in the internal flash-memory by default. During
long periods without connection the oldest records of the internal flash-memory may be erased by the new
ones. In this case, it is recommended to insert a micro-SD card and to adjust archive transmission from it
(Archive command, section Service command).
7.8 Monitoring data transmission via Iridium satellite modem
The Terminal is equipped with Iridium satellite modem that allows the transfer of monitoring data outside
of the coverage zone of GSM-networks. In this case, GalileoSky protocol and Iridium packet heads are used.
Iridium satellite communication allows transferring data from any point on the surface of the Earth. The
Terminal allows configuring the absence of GSM communication after which the Iridium modem will be
automatically switched on (Sputnic command, section Ошибка! Источник ссылки не найден.). After
switching on the satellite modem the Terminal will try to send current coordinates and the sensors readings
within 10 minutes. Then the Terminal waits again for a predetermined time interval, if the GSM coverage is
still missing, the terminal sends the packet again via the satellite modem. Data in the packet are formed in
accordance with the settings of the main packet of GalileoSky protocol (MAINPACK command, section
Server exchange protocol settings).
7.9 Internal Archive Structure
The data archive can be stored on the internal flash-memory or a micro-SD card. The internal flash memory
card is used by default.
The Terminal stores the data from all the inputs and interfaces, even when they have no connected
sensors, in the internal flash-memory archive. If it is unnecessary to store all the data, the dynamic archive
can be used (FLASHARCHIVE command, section Service commands). In this case, only the data selected in
configuration of the head and main packets will be saved (HEADPACK and MAINPACK commands, section
Server exchange protocol settings). Any change of configuration of the head and main packets when the
dynamic archive is on can cause flash-memory formatting and data loss. The use of dynamic archive can
considerably increase the maximum number of kept points up to 58000.
By using the internal flash memory it is possible to choose the order in which points are sent to the server.
By default, the data are saved in the depth of the data store, i.e. current data are saved before older
data. Transfer in chronological order can be set by FLASHARCHIVE command .After changing the direction
of memorizing data the flash-memory will be formatted and all previously stored data will be lost.
By using a micro-SD card the data are always stored in chronological order. Note that only current data are
used for the first packet.

7.10Operation with two SIM-cards
The Terminal has 2 slots for installation of SIM-cards. Only one SIM-card can be active and support
registration in GSM-network at the same time. Each SIM-card has its own APN. If aPIN code is used, it must
be the same for both SIM-cards. The Terminal supports the following algorithm of SIM-card operation:
1. Only one SIM0 card is always active.
2. Automatic switching to the other card, if the data cannot be sent to the server within 9 minutes.
Switching occurs in cycles, i.e. first SIM0 is used, then SIM1, and after this SIM0 again.
3. Switching between SIM-cards according to the list of preferred GSM-networks. If the terminal finds
the availability of one of the specified GSM-networks, switching to the correspondent SIM-card
occurs. If networks, specified for SIM0 and SIM1, are available at the same time, the preference is
given to SIM0.
The second algorithm is always used for remote firmware updating; the Terminal attempts to get the
connection to the server with firmware through SIM 0, and if it fails - through SIM 1.
7.11GPRS traffic costs optimization
GPRS-traffic costs decrease by online monitoring may be reached by following these advices:
1. Turn off the transmission of unused data, for example temperature, acceleration, analog and digital
inputs values, which have no connected sensors. It can be made in the Configurator on Settings/Protocol
tab or by MainPack and HeadPack commands (section Server exchange protocol settings).
2. Increase points record period. It can be made in the Configurator on Settings/Track tab or by WrPeriod
command (section Track parameters settings).
3. Increase turning angle at which the device records a point, and distance at exceed of which the point is
recorded. It can be made in the Configurator on Settings/Tracks tab or by Turning command (section Track
parameters settings).
4. Find out the time of disconnection because of the Terminal inactiveness from the server software
developers. This parameter should be taken into account by points’ record period setting otherwise the
traffic will increase by reason of costs for restoring connection to the server. Example: points’ record period
at a stop is 1200 seconds (20 minutes), the server disconnection by reason of the terminal inactiveness is
180 seconds (3 minutes). The Terminal determines that a vehicle has stopped and switches on a timer for
the next point record in 20 minutes, in 3 minutes the server disconnects as it hasn’t received the data from
the Terminal. The Terminal tries to reconnect the server at once. It happens 6 times and only in 20 minutes
the Terminal sends the next point. As a result, traffic costs considerably exceed savings from points record
interval increase.
5. Set filtering of coordinates at a stop so as the Terminal can correctly chose points’ record period. The
Terminal can determine a stop according to several elements:
accelerometer data (AccSens command, section Track parameters setting);
external supply voltage (MHours command, section Track parameters setting);
ignition sensor indications (Ignition command, section Track parameters setting).
If continuous online monitoring is not necessary, it is possible to set packet data transmission (section Stels
mode and package transmission). In this case, the device will periodically contact, send the data from the
blackbox and disconnect from the server. Savings are due to decrease of costs for one data packet
transmission as when sending data from the archive a packet size may be up to 1000 byte, and by online
monitoring usually one point is sent (a few tens of bytes). At the same time, the Terminal operation from
the battery increases as during server disconnection periods the device switches off GSM-unit.
