GV304N User Manual 1. Introduction NK The GV304N is a powerful GPS locator designed for vehicle or asset tracking. It has superior receiver sensitivity, fast TTFF (Time to First Fix) and supports quad band GSM frequencies GSM850/GSM900/DCS/PCS. Its location can be monitored in real time or periodically tracked by a backend server or other specified terminals. The GV304N has multiple input/output interfaces that can be used for monitoring or controlling external devices.

GV304N User Manual 3.5. Switch ON the Backup Battery To use the GV304N backup battery, the switch must be at the ON position. Switch on the case and ON/OFF position are shown below. NK Figure 7. Switch and ON/OFF position LI Note: 1. The switch must be on the “OFF” position when shipped on an aircraft. 2. When the switch is on the “OFF” position, the battery cannot be charged or discharged. 3.6. Installing the External GPS Antenna (Optional) QU EC There is a SMA GPS antenna connector on GV304N.
GV304N User Manual Impedance: 50Ω VSWR: <2 Noise figure: <3 3.7. Power Connection LI NK PWR (PIN11) / GND (PIN6) 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 systems without the need for external transformers. EC Figure 9. Typical Power Connection 3.8. Ignition Detection Table 7.
GV304N User Manual Typical Ignition Detection NK Figure 10. 3.9. Digital Inputs EC LI IGN (Pin3)is used for ignition detection. It is strongly recommended to connect this pin to ignition key “RUN” position as shown up. 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.
GV304N User Manual Typical Digital Input Connection NK Figure 11. 3.10. Analog Inputs QU EC LI There are two analog inputs on GV304N, the analog input voltage range is from 0 to 16V. The following diagram shows the recommended connection. Figure 12. Typical Analog Input Connection Note: PIN 15 is an multifunction pin: it can be configured as a digital input or an analog input. 3.11. Digital Outputs There are three digital outputs on GV304N.

GV304N User Manual Figure 15. Typical Connection with LED QU EC 3.12. Device Status LED LI NK Note: 1. OUT1 will latch the output state during reset. 2. All outputs are internally pulled up to PWR pin by a diode. So no external flyback diode is needed when the output is connected to an inductive load. Figure 16. GV304N LED on the Case Table 10.

Slow flashing (Note4) SIM card needs pin code to unlock. ON GPS chip is powered off OFF GPS sends no data or data format error. Slow flashing GPS chip is searching GPS info. Fast flashing GPS chip has gotten GPS info. ON No external power and internal battery voltage is lower than 3.35V.
GV304N User Manual 3.13.1. Connect With Garmin GPS Set GV304N connection with Garmin GPS set EC Figure 18. LI NK GV304N can communicate with Garmin GPS Set. The following typical connection is using Queclink AG100 cable. QU Note: GV304N some version maybe connects with Garmin GPS set by Garmin FMI10/FMI15 cable, please consult with Queclink for detail information.
