GT Lite Operation and Maintenance Manual 
 
1.1 GT Lite Overview 
 
The GlobalTrak GT Lite enables location tracking and monitoring of assets in real-time or near 
real-time over GSM.  Using a high sensitivity Assisted GPS receiver, this can be done from 
within containers or trailers with no external antenna and no need for line of sight to the sky.  
The GT Lite uses wired and wireless sensors to monitor asset status.  If a sensor goes into an 
alarm condition, an alarm is immediately sent to the Information Management Bureau (IMB).  
Along with sensor alarms, the GT Lite sends periodic location reports using its internal GPS 
module.  On request polling can also be executed from the IMB. These reports are received at 
the IMB where they are compared against stored routes.  Using this method alarms can be 
programmed to alert the operator when a shipment goes off route.  All batteries needed to 
keep the GT Lite operational are enclosed in the body of the main unit.   
Feature List 
The product is designed to monitor fixed and mobile assets and report important sensory 
events regardless of its location.   This is accomplished by equipping the GT Lite with the 
following features: 
a)  Communications: The GT Lite can communicate bidirectionally over the GSM cellular 
network. 
b)  Optional Satellite Communications:  The GT Lite has the option to add Orbcomm or 
Iridium satellite communication. 
c)  Optional RFID:  The GT Lite has the option to add Wavecom or SAVI active RFID or 
GEN2 passive RFID. 
d)  Sensor Suite:  The GT Lite has sensors to send alarms in the event of unusual or 
unexpected shock, light, door open, temperature or device tampering. 
e)  Simple Installation: There is as little as one component to install anywhere inside or 
outside of an asset. 
f)    Location Reporting: The on board high sensitivity Assisted GPS receiver calculates its 
position within a few meters of accuracy even from within containers or trailers. 
g)  Industrial Grade: High temperature rating (-40°C to +85°C) and minimum IEC shock 
and vibration rating. 
h)  ZigBee Equipped: The wireless standard for low-power short-range bi-directional 
communications, suitable for mesh networks and sensor reads. 
Asset Tracking and Monitoring 
GT Lite communicates all information to the Information Management Bureau (IMB), a server-
based application used by operators and customers to track and monitor assets equipped with 
the GT Lite.  The interaction between the IMB and the GT Lite is based on the existing 
GlobalTrak V3d protocol, enabling polling of the device, over-the-air configuration, scheduled 
and event reporting.
