1. Introduction
GV50(P) is a mini GPS tracker designed for a wide variety of vehicle tracking applications. Its
built-in GPS receiver has superior sensitivity and fast time to first fix. Its quad band GPRS
subsystem supports 850/1900 MHz, allowing the GV50(P)'s location to be monitored in real time
or periodically tracked by a backend server and mobile devices. Its built-in 3-axis accelerometer
allows motion detection and extends battery life through sophisticated power management
algorithms. System integration is straightforward as complete documentation is provided for the
full featured @Track protocol. The @Track protocol supports a wide variety of reports including
emergency, geo-fence boundary crossings, low battery and scheduled GPS position.
