Appearance

First Use

5.1 Indicator
Press and hold down the power button for 3s to 5s to start the ST5.

GPS Indicator (Blue)

Blink (every 0.1s)| The ST5 is being initialized or the battery power is low.
Blink (0.1s on and 2.9s off)| A GPS signal is received.
Blink (1s on and 2s off)| No GPS signal is received.
4G Indicator (Green)
Steady on| Strong 4G connection
Blink (every 0.1s)| The ST5 is being initialized.
Blink (0.1s on and 2.9s off)| A base station signal is received.
Blink (1s on and 2s off)| No base station signal is received.

Installing the ST5

6.1 Installing an I/O Cable
The I/O cable is a 12-pin connector which we are only using power and ignition input.

the positive electrode of the vehicle storage battery. Input voltage: 11.4 V to 36 V. 12 V recommended.
2 (GND)| Black| Ground wire, connected to the negative electrode of the vehicle storage battery or to the negative terminal.
3 (Input 1)| White| Digital input 1, negative trigger (SOS button by default)
4 (GND)| Black| Ground wire, connected to input 1 (SOS button)
5 (Input 2)| White & Brown| Digital input 2 (negative trigger)
Connect to a door trigger signal cable to detect vehicle door status. (Most Chinese, Korean, and Japanese cars are negative edge-triggered). The port can be set to positive trigger, AD input 3 (0–30 V), or output 5.
---|---|---
6 (Output 3)| Yellow & Red| Output 3
Valid: low level (0 V) Invalid: open collector
Maximum voltage for output open collector (invalid): 40 V Maximum current for output low voltage (valid): 500 mA Connect to an external relay to remotely cut off the vehicle fuel cable or engine power supply. The port can be set to positive or negative input 6.
7 (Input 3)| White & Red| Digital input 3 (positive trigger)
Connect to the vehicle ACC cable by default to detect the vehicle ACC status. The port can be set to negative trigger, AD input 6 (0–30 V), output 6.
8 (AD Input 1)| Blue| Analog input 1 with 12-bit resolution and valid voltage 0–30 V Connect to an external sensor, such as the fuel level sensor.
The port can be set to positive or negative input 4 or output 7.
10 (Output 1)| Yellow| Output 1
Valid: low level (0 V) Invalid: open collector Maximum voltage for output open collector (invalid): 40 V Maximum current for output low voltage (valid): 400 mA Connect to an external relay to remotely cut off the vehicle fuel cable or engine power supply.
The port can be set to positive or negative input 7.
11 (Output 2)| Yellow & Brown| Output 2
Valid: low level (0 V) Invalid: open collector
Maximum voltage for output open collector (invalid): 40 V Maximum current for output low voltage (valid): 400 mA Connect to a buzzer.
The port can be set to positive or negative input 8.
12 (1-wire, Digital temperature sensor or iButton input port)| Green| TTL3.3V level
Connect to the A52 digital temperature sensor or iButton by default by using the A61 sensor box.
The port can be set to negative input 9 or output 4.
Note: The DC or AC voltage that is greater than 3.3 V is not allowed. Otherwise, the device may be damaged.

Power Cable/Ground Wire (PIN1, PIN2)
Connect the power cable (red) and ground wire (black) to the positive and negative electrodes of the vehicle battery respectively.

Power (PIN1, PIN2) and ACC wiring (PIN7)
Alternatively, you may wire the power +12V (Red) to the barrel of the key switch provided you are careful to not damage existing wiring or leave exposed wire that could cause a short circuit.

Note: If input 3 is connected to ACC and the engine is started, ON-OFF-ON conversion occurs. If input 3 is connected to Start and the engine is started, OFF-ON-OFF conversion occurs. If the device is installed correctly and the engine is started, OFF-ON conversion occurs.
6.2 Installing GPS and 4G Antennas
Connect the 4G antenna to the SMA connector which is labeled “GSM”. The 4G antenna is non-directional, so you can hide it in any place of a vehicle.
Connect the GPS antenna to the connector which is labeled “GPS”. It is recommended that the antenna is facing up to the sky and the antenna side with words is downwards. Secure the antenna with double-sided tape. Note: Do not install the GPS antenna in any position covered by metal.
6.3 Mounting the ST5
Tighten the four screws shown in the following figure.
