Modem FOTA

  • Addition to Cellocator’s FW OTA, also the Modem FOTA (FW over the air) process is available. The modem downloads a new FW file, and upgrades its own FW.
  • This feature is important in cases where a new modem FW is released or in cases when malfunctions are discovered in the modem (caused by the modem FW).
  • Upgrading the modem FW can only be managed by Cellocator CS.

Feature Authentication Codes
For dedicated customer projects, the “Feature Authentication Codes” option in the Programmer enables you to activate those special development projects into one source code with a “clean” PL that doesn’t include non-relevant parameters.
In the Programmer, the code activation is entered in a dialog box (accessed via a toolbar button, as indicated below).

When connecting the Cello unit to the Programmer serial port for the first activation, you should click on the “Feature Authentication codes” toolbar icon and enter the code that was sent from Cellocator CS. By entering this code, the automatic relevant feature will be activated and the relevant PL folders are displayed, which will be activated for any connected device. This feature is also supported OTA, so devices already in the field which are upgraded to a new version will also get this activation feature. For this purpose, a secured API/protocol to send the activation code to the device via the customer’s backend was developed.

Jamming Detection while Ignition is ON/OFF
FW v43m includes the addition of advanced jamming detection (configurable). This feature builds a logic relationship between jamming detection and ignition reaction.

Case Jamming Ignition Action
1 Yes Off Activate the immobilizer output (i.e. Immediate, Nested, Gradual)

while monitoring jamming for a predefined duration (default: 10 seconds).
2| Yes| On| Activate the immobilizer output (i.e. Immediate, Nested, Gradual) while monitoring jamming for a predefined duration (default: 15 minutes).
3| No| On/Off| Deactivate the immobilizer output after no jamming detection for a predefined period of duration (i.e. 10 minutes).

The unit notifies in the first communication that jamming was detected.

Basic Satellite Activation

  • Basic Satellite Activation enables the use of an alternative satellite communication channel when the GPRS network is unavailable.
  • The functionality enables the turning on of the satellite modem power when the CR400 unit is out of GPRS coverage, and to switch back to GPRS when GPRS communication is once again available.

Crash Detection Feature

  • The unit’s accelerometer is used as a source for crash detection and reporting.
  • The feature includes two separate RMS-based thresholds, one for a light crash and one for a heavy crash.
  • The detection will not be possible when in full-hibernation mode (ignition is OFF).
  • Note that the light crash detection requires the unit to be installed horizontally for gravity to be eliminated.

Driver behaver
The following driver maneuvers will be monitored:

  • Harsh acceleration
  • Harsh braking
  • Harsh turn
  • Over speeding
  • Accident detection

For each of the above-mentioned harsh maneuvers, the system shall provide two configuration parameters:

  • Threshold in G for maneuver detection
  • Threshold in Seconds for Minimum length of maneuver to be considered valid

Enable/Disable IP Up
The ‘IP up’ alert is generated with every dial-up to GPRS in order to update the Central Control with the resent IP address of the unit. In cases where the SIM card is associated with a static IP, it is possible to cancel IP up events.

RTC from the Network
This feature enables you to get RTC from the network for devices that are fixed and located underground.

Dallas Identifier in Ignition Off
This feature enables you to also get driver identification from the Dallas in Ignition Off mode.

1-Wire Temperature Sensor Measurement Event TR Change
In the wireless protocol, the Transmit Reason of ‘1-wire temperature sensor measurement event’ was changed to 12 (instead of 10). The sub reasons are as follows:

  • 0 – High 1-Wire Temperature Sensor Measurement
  • 1 – Low 1-Wire Temperature Sensor Measurement

Tilt Tamper
Tilt Tamper logic measures the orientation (by earth gravity) on each axis and changes that breach the configured angle threshold. When compared to the steady state for a longer time than the configured time threshold, the unit will report it.

Cell ID for LTE variant (Modem Telit ME910C1-ww)
The following data related to LTE Cell ID will be sent as type 9:

  • Black – Cat. M1 & 2G unless specified otherwise
  • Blue – 2G Only

Network Time & Date

  • Serving Cell : MCC, MNC, TAC/LAC, Global Cell ID, Physical Cell ID(not in 2G), RSRP, ACT
  • Neighbors Cells: Neighbors Count (0-6), MCCs, MNCs, LACs, Global Cells IDs, RSRPs, ACTs

Acronyms:

  • ACT – Access Technology (2G/Cat. M1)
  • RSRP – Reference Signal Received Power
  • LAC – Localization Area Code
  • TAC – Tracking Area Code
  • MCC – Mobile Country Code
  • MNC – Mobile Network Code

Overriding Operational Mode for Charging Activation
This is a new PL flag that allows the activation of charging, irrespective of the operational mode.

Delay Modem-on capability

  • This feature was developed for scenarios where a thief checks if a specific vehicle is equipped with a transmitting security unit by activating a GSM detector when the vehicle owner starts (Ignition On) the vehicle. If a thief successfully collects GSM transmissions (meaning a unit is installed in the car), the thief knows the transmission unit has to be removed before attempting to steal the vehicle.
  • To avoid these scenarios, the following logic was implemented:
  • When the car is started (Ignition On), the unit functions according to its standard logic, except for the modem which stays off (regardless of the unit mode before Ignition On).
  • The modem is switched on after expiration of a timer, which is measured from the Ignition On filter expiration (but when no Start event was transmitted). This timer is configurable via the “Modem On Delay Timer” parameter.

RSSI in Type 0

  • The RSSI is reported by the modem within the response to Cell ID querying, which is performed every 1 minute.
  • Two options were added in order to receive RSSI data:
  • The OTA protocol provides four bytes in Type 0 messages, which are dedicated for the monitoring of analog inputs in a number of different message types. These bytes can contain measurements from the different fields as per the configuration. This feature added the RSSI data to the configurable measurements described above.
  • The ability to always receive Cell ID sub-data with any event (Type 0), unconditionally.

Release Package Content

Evaluation Suite

  • The Cellocator Evaluation Suite Manual is a comprehensive guide that provides information required to run an initial appraisal and testing process of Cellocator units, without requiring connection to an actual vehicle during testing.
  • The Cellocator Evaluation Suite contains a complete set of components that simplifies bench testing of the system and serves as a demonstration platform for people wishing to understand the operational aspects of the system. The Suite is also intended to facilitate the development of interfaces to the Cellocator system by integrators or service providers.

Cellocator Programmer
The Cellocator Programmer enables you to perform the following:

  • Modify a PL file to suit your communication needs.
  • Upload and download PL files to Cellocator units via its serial interface.
  • Test and debug units using a variety of features, including a platform manifest, the ability to test a unit’s inputs and outputs, and the ability to forward data to a wireless channel.
  • The Cellocator Programmer is mainly used for the initial configuration of a unit, and typically communication settings such as the destination IP address, target port phone, and SMS numbers.
  • Addition bit enable was added to Cellocator Programmer interface to control on BLE activation. You can enable/disable the BLE interface from it:

Communication Center

  • The CR400 supports the use of the Communication Center tool. The Communication Center performs the following:
  • Receives, parses and monitors GPRS and SMS messages.
  • Sends commands through GPRS or SMS communications.
  • Interrogates the unit in order to get the current location (in text format) and the unit status (inputs, outputs, GPS data, etc.).
  • Receives and monitors emergency transmissions from the unit (input triggering).
  • Controls the unit’s outputs. Programs the unit’s behavior OTA (by changing the unit’s EEPROM content).
  • Upgrades the unit firmware.
