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/GSM
subsystem supports 850/900/1800/1900 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

k
position.
