Various Status window1 tabs display information about GNSS2 , GSM3 , I/O4 , Maintenance5 and etc. FMC920 has one user editable profile, which can be loaded and saved to the device. After any modification of configuration the changes need to be saved to device using Save to device button. Main buttons offer following functionality:
Load from device – loads configuration from device.
Save to device – saves configuration to device.
Load from file – loads configuration from file.
Save to file – saves configuration to file.
Update firmware – updates firmware on device.
Read records – reads records from the device.
Reboot device – restarts device.
Reset configuration – sets device configuration to default.
Most important configurator section is GPRS – where all your server and GPRS settings6 can be configured and Data Acquisition7 – where data acquiring parameters can be configured. More details about FMC920 configuration using Configurator can be found in our Wiki8.

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

MOUNTING RECOMMENDATIONS
CONNECTING WIRES
- Wires should be fastened to the other wires or non-moving parts. Try to avoid heat emitting and moving objects near the wires.
- The connections should not be seen very clearly. If factory isolation was removed while connecting wires, it should be applied again.
- If the wires are placed in the exterior or in places where they can be damaged or exposed to heat, humidity, dirt, etc., additional isolation should be applied.
- Wires cannot be connected to the board computers or control units.
CONNECTING POWER SOURCE
- Be sure that after the car computer falls asleep, power is still available on chosen wire. Depending on car, this may happen in 5 to 30 minutes period.
- When module is connected, measure voltage again to make sure it did not decrease.
- It is recommended to connect to the main power cable in the fuse box.
- Use 3A, 125V external fuse.
CONNECTING IGNITION WIRE
- Be sure to check if it is a real ignition wire i. e. power does not disappear after starting the engine.
- Check if this is not an ACC wire (when key is in the first position, most of the vehicle electronics are available).
- Check if power is still available when you turn off any of vehicles devices.
- Ignition is connected to the ignition relay output. As alternative, any other relay, which has power output when ignition is on, may be chosen.
CONNECTING GROUND WIRE
- Ground wire is connected to the vehicle frame or metal parts that are fixed to the frame.
- If the wire is fixed with the bolt, the loop must be connected to the end of the wire.
- For better contact scrub paint from the spot where loop is going to be connected.
