MICHELIN M40X GSM, GSM/LTE and GPS Positions User Manual

MICHELIN M40X GSM, GSM/LTE and GPS Positions CAN (Optional)

The MICHELIN Connected Fleet CAN sensors are unintrusive to the vehicle CAN and have read only functionality. This means that the CAN sensors can’t input any data on to the network that might cause issues with the vehicle. Ignition MUST be off while connecting the CAN clips.
The clips come in two varieties:

• CAN, white label Sonde SCN4
• J1587, green label Sonde SCN4

Depending on the vehicle make and model you might require one or two CAN sensors. Most vehicles only require one clip. This means that your CAN setup will look like one of these three options:

• CAN; one white labelled sensor
• CAN+CAN; two white labelled sensors
• CAN+J1587; one white labelled sensor and one green labelled sensor

NOTE: A J1587, green label, sensor will work as a replacement for a CAN, white label, sensor. However the green clip should only be used when needed .

1. Open the CAN sensor. There are four clips that you need to undo.
2. There are two labelled channels one for CAN High and one for CAN Low.
3. Locate the CAN wire pair, untwist them slightly.
4. Run the wires in the correct labelled channels in the sensor. They should NOT cross over.
5. Close the sensor, taking care to not damage or move the wires, you should hear a click. Secure the sensor with one of the included cable ties. Use the other cable tie

 HMI (Optional)

FEATURES
The HMI or Lightbar features the following:

• Driver Identification by RFID tags
• Panic/Alert button
• Privacy button
• Driver behaviour bar graph with 18 LED
• Buzzer, for login reminder and driver behaviour alerts

INSTALLATION
The HMI is installed by pre-applied adhesive to the back of the lightbar. The area must be clean. Use the included alcohol wipe to clean the area before attaching the HMI.
NOTE: If possible avoid making a visible notch in panels to route the HMI cable. If needed make sure that the notch is small and neatly done with proper tools. NEVER make a hole in the middle of a panel.

POSITION
The HMI MUST be clearly visible from the driver’s seat, to prevent the driver from taking the eyes off the road.
Installing the HMI on the central console may be preferable as it generally allows it to be positioned higher. If this is not possible the HMI can be installed on the dash between the steering wheel and the door.
Refer to the MICHELIN Connected Fleet vehicle guides for recommended HMI positions for the vehicle you are working on.

Cable routing

LOOMING
Any excess cabling should be loomed up tidily in a figure eight, and tied together with cable ties and tape. Excess cabling should not be looped. All MICHELIN Connected Fleet cables should be gathered up and loomed up into one loom. ROUTING Best Practice Bad Practice To minimise electrical interference the MICHELIN Connected Fleet wiring should be run along the existing vehicle wiring or the metal structure of the vehicle. The cables should be fastened with cable ties approximately every 4 inches, 10 cm.
MICHELIN Connected Fleet wiring and equipment MUST NOT obstruct or interfere with any of the following:

Unit Mounting

SECURING THE UNIT
The M4xx has an integrated 3 axes X accelerometer, which is used to confirm harsh driving events and Y Z register impact force in the event of a crash. To achieve optimal performance, and for security reasons, the M4xx must be firmly secured, using cable ties. To a solid plastic or metal structure in the vehicle. ORIENTATION To avoid water ingress and condensation forming DO NOT fit the M4xx with the connectors facing upward. POSITIONING The M4xx must be mounted in a safe place, where it will not affect the operation of the vehicle. It should also not be subject to damp that might compromise the unit.

NOTE: The M4xx must be installed behind the dash trim of the vehicle and not accessible to the end user (driver).

 I/O Protection and Warranty/

WARRANTY/TAMPER STICKERS Warranty/Tamper stickers must be added to the M4xx SIM card slot, I/O Shield, and the fuses on the power loom. There are currently two sizes of Warranty/Tamper stickers:

IMPORTANT: The Warranty/Tamper sticker must be applied over the M4xx SIM card slot so it covers it entirely and prevents any liquid or dust introduction inside the enclosure and guarantees the IP rating of the product.

17. Commissioning MASTER MANAGER MOBILE Before you connect the power to the
M4xx you need to start the commissioning process. A short guide will follow, please refer to the MMO guide for a more in depth version.
VEHICLE INFORMATION
You will need the following vehicle information to complete the commission:

• Registration
• Chassis number
• Make/model/version

CONFIGURATION
During the commission you will have to select and send out a configuration. The configuration will activate/deactivate different features. For example:

• CAN
• FEEDBACK
• PRIVACY
• ID
• PANIC

INSTALL INFORMATION
MMO will also collect information about the install that you need to fill in.

• Antenna position
• Antenna type
• OBU position
• Vehicle odometer value, at the time of the install
• Odometer unit (KM/Miles)

VALIDATION
Finally MMO will validate the functionality of the M4xx. The following will be tested:

• Satellite reception
• Ignition ON
• Ignition OFF
• Optional features

SPECIALIST SOLUTIONS
Any specialist solutions will also need to be configured and tested with MMO while commissioning your unit.

 Input/Output (Optional)

INPUT COMPATIBILITY
A variety of inputs can be connected to the M4xx via the power loom. Inputs are connected to check the status of a device, for example; PTO, door switches, reverse, and beacons etc. 3 (4 if you count ignition) wires can be configured as follows:

• TOR – (On/Off control) standard digital voltage reading (0 or 1)
• CAD – Analog voltage reading
• TOR/CAD – Digital reading translated according to the thresholds up and down.

2 wires can be configured as follows:

• CAD – Analog voltage reading
• TOR/CAD – Digital reading translated according to the thresholds up and down.

Tachofresh (Optional)

TACHOFRESH
Tachofresh is the M4xx tachograph reading functionality. This page shows the wiring schematic, there is a full lenght guide available here, including the commissioning process.
COMPATIBILITY
Only digital Tachographs are compatible with the M4xx Tachofresh solution. It will not work with analog, paper disc, tachographs. VDO Tachographs will need to be unlocked to enable remote download from the front port, this can be done by the engineer with a VDO Unlock card (up to DTCOÂ 2.2) or by the customer using a License code (from DTCO 3.x).

 Gritters (Optional) COMPATIBILITY

The M4xx is compatible with most gritters from the following manufacturers:

• ECON, specific guide available here.
• Schmidt, specific guide available here.
• Giletta/Buscher
• Romaquip
• Epoke

For some gritter heads the manufacturer needs to fit/adjust the output connection that the M4xx connects to. This should be done before the job is booked.
A gritter is commissioned as an input with the appropriate protocol and configuration selected, see the job instructions/specific guides.
WIRING
The wiring for the for the gritter will vary depending on the manufacturer and the model. This will only affect the cable going from the 4RS232 adapter to the gritter.

 Temperature (Optional) COMPATIBILITY

The M4xx is compatable with temperature readings both from MICHELIN Connected Fleet’s own hardware temperature probes and from various temperature controllers and data loggers.
The firmware of the M4xx must be 1.8 or above to be compatible with Transcan .
WIRED PROBES WIRING
Hardware temperature, via probes, is wired to the M4xx power loom inputs. The data loggers and temperature controllers are connected via a cable to the pro input on the M4xx, sometimes via a 4RS232 adapter depending on the specification of the install.
WIRED PROBES INSTALLATION
More information on installation guidelines are available here:

• LCV Installation
• HGV Installation
• Trailer (M430) Installation
• Datalogger Installation
