1. Introduction
The GV58CEU is a compact GNSS tracker designed for a wide variety of vehicle tracking
applications. It has multiple I/O interfaces that can be used for monitoring or controlling external
devices. Its built-in GNSS receiver has superior sensitivity and fast time to first fix. Its six-band
LTE-FDD in Europe and GSM/GPRS 900/1800MHz allowing the GV58CEU'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 driving behaviour monitoring, motion detection and extended
battery life through sophisticated power management algorithms. The @Track protocol supports
a wide variety of reports including emergency, geo-fence boundary crossings, driving behaviour,
low battery and scheduled GNSS position.

2.4. Power Connection
VIN(Red) / GND(Black) are the power input pins. The input voltage range for this device is from
8V to 32V. The device is designed to be installed in vehicles that operate on 12V or 24V vehicle
without the need for external transformers.

Figure 4: Typical Ignition Detection
IGN(White) is used for ignition detection. It is strongly recommended to connect this pin to
ignition key “RUN” position as shown above.
An alternative to connecting to the ignition switch is to find a non-permanent power source that
is only available when the vehicle is running, for example, the power source for the FM radio.

IGN signal can be configured to start transmitting information to the backend server when the
ignition is on, and enter power saving mode when the ignition is off.
There are two digital outputs on GV58CEU. All two digital outputs are of open drain type and the
maximum drain current is 150mA.

Note:
1. The opposite direction of the cable bundle is the positive direction of the X-axis.
2. The Z-axis is in the positive direction above the front housing surface.
3. The positive directions of the three axes are perpendicular to each other, as shown in the
above figure.

4. Troubleshooting and Safety Information
4.1. Troubleshooting
Table 9: Solutions to Possible Trouble
Trouble
Possible Reason
Solution
After GV58CEU is turned on,
the CELL LED always flashes
quickly.
The signal is too weak, and
GV58CEU cannot be registered
to the network.
Please move GV58CEU to
places with good GSM
coverage.
Messages cannot be reported
to the backend server.
The IP address or port of the
backend server is wrong.
Make sure the IP address
for the backend server is an
identified address on the
Internet.
Unable to power off GV58CEU.
Unable to power off GV58CEU if
charger is connected.
Disconnect charger, and try
again.
GV58CEU cannot get successful
GNSS fix.
The GNSS signal is weak.
Please move GV58CEU to a
place with open sky.
It is better to let the top
surface (the surface with
LED indicator) face the sky.
4.2. Safety Information
Please do not disassemble the device by yourself.
Please do not put the device on overheated or too humid place, and avoid exposure to direct
sunlight. Too high temperature will damage the device or even cause battery explosion.
Please do not use GV58CEU on the airplane or near medical equipment.
