Downloaded Configurator will be in a compressed archive. Extract it and launch Configurator.exe. After launch software language can be changed by clicking ? in the right bottom corner.
The configuration process begins by pressing on the connected device.
After connection to Configurator Status window will be displayed.

Various Status window1 tabs display information about GNSS2, GSM3, I/O4, Maintenance5, etc. FMC150 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 the device using the Save to Device button. Main buttons offer the following functionality:

Load from the device – loads configuration from the device. Save to device – saves the configuration to the device.
Load from file – loads configuration from file.
Save to file – saves the configuration to file.
Update firmware – updates the firmware on the device.
Read records – reads records from the device.
Reboot the device – restart the device.
Reset configuration – sets device configuration to default.

The 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 FMC150 configuration using Configurator can be found in our Wiki8.

QUICK SMS CONFIGURATION
The default configuration has optimal parameters present to ensure the best performance of track quality and data usage. Quickly set up your device by sending this SMS command to it:

$TELTONIKA-FMC150-Advanced-Tracker-FIG- $8$$

Note: Before SMS text, two space symbols should be inserted.

GPRS SETTINGS:

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

DEFAULT CONFIGURATION SETTINGS

MOVEMENT AND IGNITION DETECTION:

VEHICLE MOVEMENT
will be detected by the accelerometer
IGNITION
will be detected by vehicle power voltage between 13,2 – 30 V
DEVICE MAKES A RECORD ON STOP IF:
1 HOUR PASSES while the vehicle is stationary and the ignition is off
RECORDS SENDING TO SERVER:
EVERY 120 seconds it is sent to the server If the device has made a record

THE DEVICE MAKES A RECORD OF MOVING IF ONE OF THESE EVENTS HAPPENS:

PASSES
300 seconds
VEHICLE DRIVES
100 meters
VEHICLE TURNS
10 degrees
SPEED DIFFERENCE
between the last coordinate and current position is greater than 10 km/h

After successful SMS configuration, the FMC150 device will synchronize time and update records to the configured server. Time intervals and default I/O elements can be changed by using Teltonika Configurator1 or SMS parameters2.

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 the chosen wire. Depending on the car, this may happen in a 5 to 30-minute period.
When the module is connected, measure the 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 the 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 the vehicle devices.
The ignition is connected to the ignition relay output. As an alternative, any other relay, that has power output when ignition is on, may be chosen.

CONNECTING GROUND WIRE

The 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 the loop is going to be connected.
