2.4 GPS201 and GPS-202 Options

The GPS-201 and GPS-202 support one input and an ignition input. The configuration of these are

discussed in this section.

Figure 8: GPS201 and GPS202 Input Configuration

Input 1: If a position packet is to be generated when the state of Input 1 changes, check Enable in the

Input 1 section.

Note that there are two options for Input 1 reporting and that both are selected by default. If an input 1

state change with position packet is to be sent when input 1 goes from a high state to a low state then

select “Send on High to Low”. If an input 1 state change with position packet is to be sent when input 1

goes from a low state to a high state then select “Send on Low to High”.

Ignition Input Options: The GPS-205 can be instructed to send the ignition state when it changes. This

event is sent as Input 6. An Input 6 high to low state change packet, with position, is sent when the GPS-

205 detects the ignition is turned off. When the ignition is turned on an Input 6 low to high state change

packet, with position, is sent. Note that this packet is sent after the GPS-205 has a valid GPS fix. Also, the

GPS-205 performs a reset when the ignition goes active.

This option requires correct configuration of the Ignition and Power connections. Refer to

the GPS-205 manual for more information.

When the GPS-205 detects ignition on any events that are sent to occur on power up will

fire (i.e. Sending Input 3 on Power Up is enabled). This is because the ignition on event

causes the GPS-205 to perform a reset.

2.5 GPS-205 Options

The I/O, GeoStatus and SMS options for the GPS-205 are discussed in this section.

Note: These values should be selected with care as they will greatly effect the amount of

data used by the device. Be sure to configure the device to operate within your data plan.

2.5.1 GPS-205 I/O Options

The input and output options contains the configuration of the inputs of the GPS-205. The output on the

GPS-205 is always enabled.

NOTE: By default the output is in the high state.
