  • Page 10: First-Time Setting

    285 – User guide 7. First-time setting The cGuard trackers can be configured by using official application – cGuard Configurator. This program allows to set tracker’s parameters for GPS/GLONASS monitoring and also to tune the data exchange and analysis to work with data from tracker and external devices.
  • Page 11 Configurator shows the channel data values in real time, allows turning on/off data sending from each channel and setting the sending conditions. The list of available channels of cGuard 285 is shown in the table 2. The correspondence between channels and inputs can be seen in table 3.

    285 – User guide 8.2. GPS/GLONASS-antenna installing  While paving the antenna’s wire avoid sharp objects and razor-edges of metal details.  Any changes made to antenna’s wire (changing, increasing, etc) are forbidden.  Antenna and antenna’s wire and connectors should not be short to ground, it will cause the failure of a tracker and lead to an expensive repairs.
  • Page 16 285 – User guide Pic.6. Connecting the main power to the X1 connector after the ground switch scheme There is also the ability to connect the device straight to the accumulator, bypassing the ground switch. In this case it’s recommended to put the 2A fuse on minimal distance from the point where the tracker is connected to main power.

  • Page 17: Connecting The Analog Inputs Of Tracker

    285 – User guide In case when the tracker is connected straight to the battery, bypassing the ground switch, it’s not recommended for the vehicle to have long-time downtimes (more than 3 days). When doing the electric welding on the automobile, or when the engine is starting by the external current source the tracker must be disconnected from automobile board mains! Otherwise the device can break down.
  • Page 18 285 – User guide In case analog input is used for detecting the automobile ignition, use the following schemes.  If there’s a plus-circuit splitter in the automobile, use the scheme from pic. 9 to detect the ignition. Pic.9.Ignition detecting in plus circuit ...

  • Page 19: Connecting The Frequency/Pulse Inputs Of Tracker

    285 – User guide 8.6. Connecting the frequency/pulse inputs of tracker Tracker has 4 frequency/pulse inputs (DIN1.. DIN4), One of the working modes (frequency or pulse) can be chosen for each of them. Each of the 4 inputs can be configured individually.
