1. Introduction
The MT100 is a powerfu GPS ocator designed for vehic e or asset tracking. It has
superior receiver sensitivity, fast TTFF (Time to First Fix) and supports Quad-Band GSM
frequencies 850/900/1800/1900, its ocation can be monitored in rea time or be
periodica y tracked by a backend server or other specified termina s. The MT100 has
mu tip e input/output interfaces that can be used for monitoring or contro ing externa
devices. Based on the integrated @Track protoco , the MT100 can communicate with a
backend server through the GPRS/GSM network to transfer reports of Emergency,
geo-fence boundary crossings, ow backup battery or schedu ed GPS position as we as
many other usefu functions. Users can a so use MT100 to monitor the status of a vehic e
and contro the vehic e by its externa re ay output. System Integrators can easi y setup
their tracking systems based on the fu -featured @Track protoco .
This device complies with part 15B, part 22 and part 24 of the FCC rules. Operation
is subject to the followin two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful
interference (2) this device must accept any interference, includin interference
that may cause undesired operation.

3. Getting Started
3.1. Installing a SIM Card
Ste 1: Remove the cover by screwdriver.
Ste 2: Make sure the contact area is facing down, insert the SIM into the slot.
Ste 3: Install the SIM card cover.
Fi ure 2. SIM Card Installation
3.2. Switch the set on/off
There are two methods to Power on MT100:
- MT100 externa power turned on.
- Connect MT100 to PC with user cab e.
When the externa power or USB cab e power be removed,MT100 wi switch to interna
backup battery and keep on running. When interna backup battery is exhausted, MT100
wi give a report and then turn off.
Note:
1-Externa power and User USB power can be present at same time.
2-For USB port current imitation, when configuring MT100 by user cab e, p ease et
backup battery on using.
There is one method to turn off MT100.

MT100 User manual
TRACMT100UM001 -12 -
-Remove the externa power and USB power.
-Press the reset key.
Note:
MT100 PWR LED wi off.
3.3. Reset Key
There is a reset key behind the SIM card cover. If the power wire is connected to vehic e
power, the system wi reboot when the key is pressed; if the system is powered by the
backup battery and the power wire is not be connected to vehic e power, the system wi
shutdown when the key is pressed.
3.4. USB connector
There is a USB connector on MT100 which is beside the SIM card. With the USB
connector and the DATA_CABLE_M, user can configure the system or down oad
firmware. As ong as the DATA_CABLE_M is p ugged in, the system wi boot.
3.5. Power Connection
The red wire is power wire and the b ack wire is ground wire. The input vo tage range for
this device is from 8V to 32V. The device is designed to be insta ed in vehic es that
operate on 12V or 24V systems without the need for externa transformers.

Inactive 0V to 3V or Open
Fi ure 4. Typical I nition Detection
The white wire is used for ignition detection. It is strong y recommended to connect this
wire to ignition key “RUN” position as shown up.
An a ternative to connecting to the ignition switch is to find a non permanent power source
that is on y avai ab e when the vehic e is running. For examp e the power source for the
FM radio.
Ignition signa can be configured to start transmitting information to backend server when
ignition is on; and enter power saving mode when ignition is off.
3.7. Digital In uts
There is a genera purpose digita input which is the b ue wire on MT100 User Cab e, and
it is a negative trigger. The digita input is recommended to support panic button function.

There is an ana og input which is the green wire on MT100 User Cab e, and the ana og
input vo tage range is from 0 to 32V. The fo owing diagram shows the recommended
connection.
Fi ure 6. Typical Analo Input Connection
3.9. Digital Out uts
There is an output which is the brown wire on MT100 User Cab e. This output is used to
drive a siren and the maximum drive current is 750mA. When the siren output is enab ed,
the vo tage on the siren output is determined by the system power eve , if the system
power is 12V, then the siren output vo tage is 12V.
