SIM card insertion/ removal must be performed when the device is powered off – external voltage and internal battery disconnected. Otherwise SIM card might be damaged or device will not detect it.
FMX6 devices use standard-size SIM cards for SIM1 and SIM2. Currently, most of the SIM cards provided by operators can be disassembled into 3 parts – Standard/Micro/Nano. Depending on the SIM card construction – during device usage in harsh conditions, SIM  assembly might come apart which causes instability when connecting to the operator.

To avoid such risk:

1. If possible – ask the operator for a Standard SIM card with solid construction (not pre-cut to 3 parts)
2. Do not use SIM cards that were previously disassembled (SIM was  taken apart previously)
3. If you plan to use only one SIM card
4. insert it into the SIM1 slot (lower slot)
5. this ensures greater pressure on SIM contacts as the contact bed is pushed by the PCB.

When 2 SIM cards are used simultaneously risk is mitigated as well – when SIM1 is inserted, a greater pressure is applied for SIM2, so SIM  parts are harder to come lose

Configuration process begins by pressing on connected device.

After connection to Configurator Status window will be displayed.

Various Status window1 tabs display information about GNSS2, GSM3, I/O4, Maintenance5 and etc. FMB641 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 FMB641 configuration using Configurator can be found in our Wiki8.

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:

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:

DEVICE MAKES A RECORD ON STOP IF:

RECORDS SENDING TO SERVER:

DEVICE MAKES A RECORD ON MOVING IF ONE OF THESE EVENTS HAPPEN

After successful SMS configuration, FMB641 device will synchronize time and update records to configured server. Time intervals  and default I/O elements can be changed by using Teltonika Configurator1 or SMS parameters2.

MOUNTING RECOMMENDATIONS

1. CONNECTING WIRES
2. Wires should be fastened to the other wires or non-moving parts. Try to avoid heat emitting and moving objects near the wires.
3. The connections should not be seen very clearly. If factory isolation was removed while connecting wires, it should be applied again.
4. 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.
5. Wires cannot be connected to the board computers or control units.
6. CONNECTING POWER SOURCE
7. 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.
8. When module is connected, measure voltage again to make sure it did not decrease.
9. It is recommended to connect to the main power cable in the fuse box.
10. Use 3A, 125V external fuse.
11. CONNECTING IGNITION WIRE
12. Be sure to check if it is a real ignition wire i. e. power does not disappear after starting the engine.
13. Check if this is not an ACC wire (when key is in the first position, most of the vehicle electronics are available).
14. Check if power is still available when you turn off any of vehicles devices.
15. Ignition is connected to the ignition relay output. As alternative, any other relay, which has power output when ignition is on, may be chosen.
16. CONNECTING GROUND WIRE
17. Ground wire is connected to the vehicle frame or metal parts that are fixed to the frame.
18. If the wire is fixed with the bolt, the loop must be connected to the end of the wire.
19. For better contact scrub paint from the spot where loop is going to be connected

DECLARATION OF IMEI ASSIGNMENT
The IMEI number is used by a GSM network to identify valid devices and therefore can be used to stop a stolen phone from accessing that network. For example, if a mobile phone is stolen, the owner can call their network provider and instruct them to blacklist the phone using its IMEI number. This renders the phone useless on that network and sometimes other networks too, whether or not the phone’s subscriber identity module (SIM) is changed.
