4.2 Install SIM Card
Check that the SIM has not run out of credit (test the SIM in a phone to make sure it can send and receive SMS);
Check that the SIM Lock code is turned off;
If you require the function of sending an SMS location report to the authorized phone number when it makes a
call to the MVT380, please make sure the SIM installed supports displaying caller ID.
Before installing the SIM card, turn off the power for MVT380.
Unscrew and remove the front cover.
Insert the SIM card by sliding it into the card holder with the chip module facing to the connectors on PCB.
Put back the front cover and screw it up.
4.3 Install I/O Cable
The I/O cable is a 16-pin cable including power, analog inputs, positive and negative inputs, and outputs ports.

5) Analog Input
Note:
Fuel level sensors supplied by us are resistance-type sensors with output resistance: 0-200Ω(ohm).
For the circuit shown on above figure, if VCC is 12V, R should be 200Ω(ohm) and if VCC is 24V then R should
be 600Ω(ohm) to make the input range to AD1 or AD2 is 0-6V.
Below formula is for calculating the fuel percent left for this fuel level sensor:
The value must be converted into decimal, for example, 0x0267 is 615 in decimal.
4.4 Install GPS/GSM Antennas
GSM Antenna GPS Antenna
Connect the GSM antenna to the SMA connector which is ‘GSM’text labeled. The GSM antenna is non-directional,
so you can hide it in any place of vehicle.
Connect GPS antenna to the GPS connector which is ‘GPS’labeled. The optimum location for the GPS antenna is
on the roof of the vehicle. The covert and GPS antenna are directional, make sure they are facing up and laying as
flat as possible. Secure them in place with glue or zip ties.
Note: Do not shield or cover the GPS antenna with any objects containing metal.
4.5 Install Microphone and Speaker (Optional)
