2.0 i50 Overview

The i50 is Datalink’s intelligent asset tracking unit. It is designed for automatic vehicle location (AVL)

and two-way data transfer over multiple wireless communications networks via the Datalink DataGate

server software. It includes an internal GPS receiver and optional internal modems for a complete

solution in one box. Two main i50 versions are produced: the i50B for general commercial use; and

the i50C, which includes support for AES-256 encryption.

Standard and optional features include:

•50-channel GPS receiver (supports GPS and GALILEO

signals)

•Internal satellite and cellular modems with dual operation (optional)

•Internal Wi-Fi modem (optional)

•Three external RS-232 serial ports (only two available when using internal Wi-Fi)

•Sleep mode with adjustable timeout and periodic wakeup timer

•Wide input voltage range with load-dump protection

•Battery voltage monitoring

•Four digital inputs plus Ignition input

•Four digital outputs

•Two analog inputs

•Switched power output for driving external devices

•Internal flash memory for permanent storage of unit settings

•Internal data buffer with backup battery eliminates data loss

•Internal 3D accelerometer to monitor driving style and detect movement while in sleep mode

•External J1708 engine interface (optional)

•Panic alert mode

•SCADA ready

•Remote programmable

•Real-time clock (RTC) timestamps events as they occur

The three external serial ports allow the i50 to interface with external devices, including:

•Cellular modem (GPRS/CDMA)

•Satellite modem (Iridium/Inmarsat D+/Globalstar/MSat)

•Sentry 2-way pager system

•RF modem (point-to-point and trunked)

•Magnetic card reader

•Laptop

•Third-party devices

•J-1708 engine interface

Other devices and networks can be made available with custom development.

Available through GPS firmware update when Galileo system becomes operational.

Table 1 shows the pin assignment of the 14-pin power and input/output connector, shown looking into

the connector on the front panel.

PWR IGN IN1 IN2 IN3 IN4 ADC1

GND VOUT OUT1 OUT2 OUT3 OUT4 ADC2

Table 1 – Power & I/O Connector

PWR: Positive supply. Note: continuous voltage on this pin MUST NOT exceed the

rated maximum.

IGN: Vehicle Ignition (active high)

OUT1: Digital Output 1

OUT2: Digital Output 2

OUT3: Digital Output 3

OUT4: Digital Output 4. This output pin is not currently available for user control. It is hard

coded to an active-low state in firmware versions 4.11 or later.

ADC2: Analog Input 1

See section 3.0 for detailed specifications on these pins.

4.2 VOUT Power Source

The VOUT line provides a switched power output, allowing the i50 to turn an external device on or

off. VOUT is active (power turned on) when the i50 is awake, and disabled during sleep mode. Note:

this output is not activated during a periodic wakeup event, when the unit is only awake for a short

time (see section 6.2.2).

This output is available on the power and Program connectors, as well as COM3 (factory option).

Note: the maximum continuous VOUT current is 1.3 A, which is shared between all VOUT

lines.

i50 Manual (4.33) Page 9

4.3 Program Connector

The i50 Program connector is used to update the unit’s firmware and adjust settings. It may also be

used to access the i50 COM1 port (see section 4.5.3). Firmware can be updated by connecting a PC

to the Program port and running the firmware update utility.

Table 2 shows the pin assignment of the Program connector, including the connections required to

attach a female DB-9 connector. Pin 1 is located on the right side looking into the connector on the

front panel. All pins (except VOUT and GND) use RS-232 voltage levels.

Note: this pin layout has been chosen so that a Datalink Mobile Data Terminal (MDT) can be plugged

in using a standard RJ-45 to RJ-45 LAN cable. The MDT provides an LCD screen and keypad for

applications where an advanced user interface is required.

i50 Manual (4.33) Page 10

4.4 LED Status Indicators

The i50 has two light-emitting diodes (LEDs) attached to the Program connector on the front panel.

These lights flash to indicate what mode the unit is in. The following states can be shown:

Power Up: NET and GPS LEDs turn green briefly when power is applied

No Settings: NET and GPS LEDs flash red four times per second

Programming: NET and GPS LEDs flash twice per second

Error: NET and GPS LEDs alternate red rapidly (see section 6.4)

Sleeping: NET LED flashes orange (red plus green) every two seconds

GPS LED off

When the unit is in normal operating mode, the LEDs are used to show network and GPS status, as

follows:

NET LED: Red flashes: no network

Green flashes: network OK

One flash per second: no data in buffer

Two flashes per second: data waiting to be sent

Three flashes per second: alarm active (ACK received)

Four flashes per second: alarm active (waiting for ACK)

GPS LED: Red flashes: no GPS signal - check antenna position

Green flashes: GPS signal OK

One flash per second: GPS antenna OK

Four flashes per second: GPS antenna short circuit
