Quick SMS configuration
Default configuration has optimal parameters present to ensure best performance of track quality and data usage.
Quickly set up your device by sending this SMS command to it:
“setparam 2001:APN;2002:APN_username;2003:APN_password;2004:Domain;2005:Port;2006:0”
Note: Before SMS text, two space symbols should be inserted.

GPRS settings:

2001 – APN
2002 – APN username (if there are no APN username, empty field should be left)
2003 – APN password (if there are no APN password, empty field should be left)

Server settings:

2004 – Domain
2005 – Port
2006 – Data sending protocol (0 – TCP, 1 – UDP)

Default configuration settings
Movement and ignition detection:

| Vehicle movement will be detected by accelerometer
---|---
| Ignition will be detected by vehicle power voltage between 13,2 – 30 V

Device makes a record On Moving if one of these events happen:

| 300 seconds passes
---|---
| Vehicle turns 10 degrees
| Vehicle drives 100 meters
| Speed difference between last coordinate and current position is greater than 10 km/h

Device makes a record On Stop if:

| 1 hour passes while vehicle is stationary and ignition is off
---|---

Records sending to server:

| If device has made a record it is sent to the server every 120 seconds
---|---

After successful SMS configuration, FMB003 device will synchronize time and update records to configured server.
Time intervals and default I/O elements can be changed by using Teltonika Configurator or SMS parameters.

Mounting recommendations

Connecting the device to the vehicle:
▬ Find OBDII connector in your vehicle (Figure 10. Most common OBDII connector locations).
