The Motorcycle Hardwired Tracker is an easy to connect, weatherproof device. It can run connected directly to an asset or external power source, meaning no worries about battery charge come into play.
This manual will help you get started. Welcome to Hapn.
What's in the box
- Tracker with SIM card installed
- Wiring harness with U end clips for easy installation.
Step 1 - Installation
- Installing the unit is a simple two-wire process. The following steps will ensure you get up and running quickly:
- Connect the wiring harness to the GV57 via the plug
- Connect the red wire to power, specifically a constant power-on source. This will ensure power to the tracking device, even when the asset is powered off.
- Connect the black wire to the ground (negative).
- This is all that is needed for basic operation, including virtual ignition detection.
-
For wired ignition detection, the additional steps below must be followed:
- For wired ignition detection, the white wire needs to be connected to the RUN position of the asset's vehicle ignition switch (see attached figure)
- Alternatively, the white wire can be connected to an ignition-tied circuit, one that is only on when the vehicle is on. This will also allow for wired ignition.
This diagram is the simplest way of illustrating how to wire the tracker. Connecting the y-clips to the corresponding battery terminals.
Step 2 - Locate your IMEI
Locate the International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) number on the bottom of your tracker. The number is 15 characters long. You will need to enter it to set up your account.
Step 3 - Activate your tracker

Important Facts
- The default reporting mode for the GV57 is 1 update per minute when ignition is on and 1 update every 3 hours when ignition is off. This can be adjusted via the tracker settings in the applications.
- The GV57 reporting mode is triggered by the tracked asset ignition being on or off. This differs from many other devices that are triggered by motion. The important thing to note is that an asset that is moving while the ignition is off, will not trigger faster update frequencies.
- The GV57 has two LED lights on the face. They indicate Cell and GPS connectivity. The red LED is the cellular connection. A slow flash means the device is connected. The blue LED is the GPS connection and will flash when acquiring location data.
- There are two additional inputs that are not currently used on the device, they may be used in the future for increased functionality.
- The device has a small back-up battery to continue transmitting in the case of complete asset power loss.
