- Interface: RS-232
- Communication: Full-duplex
Introduction
With an increasing demand for cold-chain supply chains, Teltonika is offering
the ability to monitor real-time information from freezer trailer
thermographs. Each thermograph has an RS232 communication line where FMB641
devices can connect via COM1/COM2 port of the device. The solution is easy to
install and configure. This allows you to monitor the main information of
thefreezer trailer such as Temperature, Fridge door status, Alarms, etc., and
generate events according to your needs. For more information please refer to
the installation manual below.
NOTE: t his feature is available from FW ver. 01.02.23.Rev.00

RS-232 Interface
RS-232 supports full-duplex communication which means the data can be both
sent and received at the same time as they use separate transmission lines.
Most of the modes are the same as for FMB641. When entering Sleep or Deep sleep RS-232 will be powered
off. FMB641 RS-232
connection diagram is shown in the figure below:
