3 Product Overview
The PT40 is a cellular device that can be used for both simple and complex telematics application. In
simple application the PT40 can be powered with a basic power-only connection. In more complex


                                                 Pacific Track, LLC                                                 5


                                                                          PT40 OEM USER MANUAL


application, the PT40 cab be connected to digital inputs and outputs, temperature sensors, iButton™
and additional devices over a serial connection.

The PT40 can also be connected to vehicle bus to augment the telematics data with information
collected directly from the vehicle. The PT40 supports J1939, J1708/1587 and OBD-II (CAN only).

Thanks to the integrated Bluetooth Low Energy interface, the PT40 can also communicate with an
external device such as a smartphone or tablet.

Finally, the PT40 can be programmed to run complex applications schemes based on locally generated
events and states.



4 External Interfaces
4.1 Overview
The PT40 uses a single external interface. The interface is a 20-pin connector Molex Micro-Fit 3.0™ P/N
04304-52009.

The mating connector is the Molex 04302-52000.

Pacific Track has approved the substitution of the Molex connector with other brands that have met a
series of tests conducted internally.

4.3 USB-C
For debugging purpose, the PT40 also includes a USB-C connector. The USB-C connector can be used to
connect USB 2.0 equipment (PC, laptop or smartphone) to the PT40.

Note that the PT40 cannot be powered from the USB-C connector nor can the connector provide power
to a connected accessory.


5 LED’s
5.1 Overview
The PT40 includes three LEDs (ORANGE, GREEN and BLUE).

Note: This document describes the current default behavior of the LEDs. This behavior can be changed
by the user.

Note: The GPS may go into power management mode for example when the PT40 detects that the
vehicle is not moving.



6 Power Supply
The PT40 is powered with a circuit that has been tested to meet the requirements of ISO 16750-2.

The circuit provides the following benefit:

    1) Protected against reversed polarity
    2) Protected against over current with a resettable fuse
    3) Filtered against noise present on the power line




                                              Pacific Track, LLC                                    8

    4) Protected against the overvoltage/overshoot present in the automotive and industrial
       environments with a Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) which has a peak power dissipation of
       1500W


7 Testing Environment
To test the PT40, the following shall be provided:

        A reliable power supply (at least one amp at 12V)
        A SIM card for the targeted operator
        A PC or laptop
        A USB cable to connect a PC or laptop to the PT40 such as this one:




8 Software Tools
It is recommended to use a terminal emulation program called Tera Term. The latest version is 4.100
and it can be found at: https://osdn.net/projects/ttssh2/releases/

Do not use other branches of the Tera Term projects such as 2.x or 3.x



9 Initial setup

    1. Insert the SIM card in the PT40
    2. Power the device
    3. Connect the USB connector to the PC/Laptop and to the device
    4. On a recent operating system (Windows 10), you will be prompted to install a device named
       “STM32 Virtual ComPort” and the driver will be automatically installed
    5. Start Tera Term

13 Input/Outputs
13.1 Overview
The PT40 includes the following interfaces:

       4 Digital inputs
       2 Open-drain outputs
       A 1-Wire™ interface
       A serial UART

For debugging purpose, these interfaces can be controlled locally. In actual deployments, these
interfaces can be controlled remotely over an IP connection or SMS messages

13.2 Digital inputs
The inputs can be verified with the following command:

!INP<cr>

The result is as shown below:

4 3 2 1
0 1 1 0
OK

In that case, inputs 2 and 3 are high (more than 3V on the input) and inputs 1 and 4 are low.


13.3 Open-drain outputs
The outputs can be controlled with the following command:



                                              Pacific Track, LLC                                  12


                                                                        PT40 OEM USER MANUAL



!OUT=<OUTPUT>,<LEVEL>

<OUTPUT> is 1 or 2
<LEVEL> is 0 or 1                (1 activates the open-drain which grounds the
                                 output))

Example 1: activate output #2:

!OUT=2,1

Example 2: deactivate output #1:

!OUT=1,0



13.4 Connecting a load
The load can be connected to any of the two PT40 outputs using the following schematic:




Please note the following:



                                           Pacific Track, LLC                              13


                                                                            PT40 OEM USER MANUAL


       The POWER applied to the load does not need to be the same as the one powering the PT40
       When using separate power sources, the two grounds (PT40 and load) must be connected
        together
       The diode shown above must be present if the load is not purely resistive. If a non-resistive load
        such as a relay is switched without the diode, the PT40 output will be immediately destroyed.
       The maximum voltage for the load is 60V (note that this is different from the maximum voltage
        supported by the PT40 itself)
       The maximum current is 3 Amps.


13.5 1-Wire™ interface
The PT40 supports iButton™ and temperature sensors.


13.6 Serial interface
