==Crash detection== | |||
* | [[File:FTX crash detection.png|alt=|right|500px]] | ||
* | The Crash detection feature detects and logs vehicle crash events using accelerometer data. The device offers two primary crash detection methods: | ||
* Basic Crash Detection – Monitors the X and Y axes for sudden spikes in acceleration. | |||
''' | * Advanced Crash Detection – Builds on Basic Crash but also captures additional metrics (e.g., direction, maximum/average acceleration) and uses all three accelerometer axes. | ||
* The device | * A Crash Trace option is also available, which collects high-frequency accelerometer samples and GNSS data before, during, and after a crash, providing detailed insight into the event. | ||
===Prerequisites=== | |||
* GNSS (Optional) is required if you plan to capture concurrent GNSS data during a crash trace or rely on GNSS-based scenarios. | |||
===Parameter Description=== | |||
'''Crash Scenario Threshold''' | |||
* Basic Crash calculates the acceleration magnitude on X and Y axes only (to avoid triggering on gravity). | |||
* Advanced Crash (when enabled) calculates magnitude on all three axes typically resulting in higher measured values. | |||
'''Basic Crash Detection''' | |||
* Crash Event AVL ID: 247 | |||
* Crash Detection Priority (Parameter ID 1024700): Set to Low or High to enable/disable the scenario. | |||
'''Threshold & Duration''' | |||
* When the accelerometer magnitude exceeds the configured threshold for the configured duration, the device flags a crash. | |||
* The crash state continues until the acceleration drops 30% below the threshold (hysteresis) to prevent multiple crash events from small fluctuations. | |||
'''Advanced Crash Detection''' | |||
* Enabled if Basic Crash is enabled and Parameter ID 13102 is set to “enabled.” | |||
* In addition to basic detection, it: | |||
** Calculates crash duration and direction | |||
** Captures maximum and average magnitudes, plus amplitudes on each axis. | |||
* These extended metrics are included in the same AVL record (ID 247) once the crash ends. | |||
'''Crash Trace''' | |||
* When Crash Trace is enabled, the device collects high-frequency accelerometer data (~400 samples/second) plus GNSS data (1 sample/second). | |||
* Upon a crash event (AVL ID 247 with value = 1), data continues to be collected for a configured period before and after the crash. | |||
* A second crash record (AVL ID 247, “full crash trace” type) is generated once all data is processed, accompanied by AVL ID 257 for accelerometer axis data. | |||
* Crash Trace timestamps match the actual collection times, providing a detailed timeline of the event. | |||
===Basic Operation=== | |||
'''Basic Crash Detection''' | |||
* IMU Reading: Each new acceleration vector is compared against the configured threshold. | |||
* Threshold Exceeded: If the threshold is met or exceeded for the configured duration, the device flags a crash as “ongoing.” | |||
* Hysteresis Check: The crash continues until acceleration falls 30% below the threshold. | |||
* Crash Event: Once the acceleration returns below threshold, a Crash Event (AVL ID 247) is generated, and the crash is marked as ended. | |||
'''Advanced Crash Detection''' | |||
* Basic Detection as Trigger: Advanced Crash runs alongside Basic Crash. When Basic Crash sees a threshold exceedance, Advanced Crash also begins data collection on all three axes. | |||
* Extended Metrics: As long as the device is in a crash state, the algorithm accumulates samples to compute maximum and average magnitudes/amplitudes, as well as crash direction. | |||
* Crash End & Record: When the crash ends (per Basic Crash hysteresis), Advanced Crash finalizes its calculations and outputs a single AVL record (ID 247) with the extended data fields. | |||
'''Crash Trace''' | |||
* Data Collection: Accelerometer (~400 Hz) and GNSS (1 Hz) data are continuously buffered. | |||
* Crash Start: If a crash is detected, a preliminary Crash Event (AVL ID 247, value=1) is generated. The device continues collecting data for the specified time window after the crash trigger. | |||
* Crash End: The device finalizes the crash trace data and generates a full crash trace record (AVL ID 247 which includes: | |||
** AVL ID 257: High-frequency accelerometer data. | |||
** GNSS PVT data. | |||
** Crash trace event type. | |||
* Logging & Timestamps: The record’s timestamps correspond to the actual collection times, capturing the event’s progression before, during, and after the crash. | |||
'''Records & Logging''' | |||
* All crash scenarios culminate in event records with AVL ID 247. | |||
* Advanced Crash adds extended crash metrics into the same event record. | |||
* Crash Trace finalizes with an additional record containing AVL ID 257 for high-frequency accelerometer samples. | |||
==Private / Business mode== | |||
[[File:Private business mode TCT panel.png|right|500px]] | |||
This feature enables employees to use company vehicles for personal purposes while maintaining compliance with EU General Data Protection Regulation requirements. When Private mode is active, the device masks location data and other sensitive information to prevent unauthorized tracking. Business mode restores full data visibility for standard fleet operations. | |||
Private/Business Mode is used in fleet operations where employees may drive company vehicles for both work and personal needs. It helps ensure privacy during personal use by disabling location reporting, while still providing full tracking and operational data during business use. | |||
In the TCT Features section, the Private / Business Mode allows the user to configure when the private mode should activate and deactivate by selecting one of the available feature triggers: a weekly scheduler or an external trigger type. | |||
Additionally, the user can define how the system should handle GNSS and odometer data while private mode is active. | |||
The feature also supports automatic deactivation of private mode when specific events are detected, such as Unplug, Towing, and other configured triggers. | |||
=== Prerequisites and Important Settings === | |||
* After exiting any sleep mode, DOUT and Private/Business state will '''automatically return''' to the values they had before entering the sleep mode. | |||
=== Basic Operation === | |||
* In the Private/Business window, the user can set the priority level used for sending messages (HIGH or LOW priority). | |||
* The DOUT control function allows indicating the state of Private Mode.When Private Mode is detected as ON, the configured DOUT output will also be switched ON. | |||
==== DOUT State in Sleep mode ==== | |||
In different sleep modes, DOUT behavior and Private/Business states are: | |||

After exiting any sleep mode, DOUT and Private/Business state return to the state they were in before entering the sleep mode. | |||
GNSS Data Masking defines how the device will handle location information (GNSS data) while in Private Mode: | |||
* No masking – GNSS information is not hidden. | |||
* GNSS data is sent as zero – In every record sent to the server, the GNSS fields (latitude, longitude, altitude, angle, and number of satellites) are set to "0". Additionally, GSM Cell ID and GSM Area Code information will not be sent. | |||
* GNSS data is sent as last known good position – The last valid GNSS data (latitude, longitude, altitude) recorded before entering Private Mode is sent in every record. | |||
The following I/O elements are sent as "0": | |||
* GSM Cell ID (AVL ID 205) | |||
* GSM Area Code (AVL ID 206) | |||
* Private Mode Odometer Stop - when enabled, the device does not accumulate odometer data while Private Mode is active. | |||
* Private Business Deactivation – enables the system to automatically deactivate Private Mode based on selected scenarios. | |||
Available scenarios include: Towing, Unplug, Crash and Autogeofence. The user can select one, several, or all scenarios from the dropdown menu. | |||
=== | ''NOTE! If Trigger type is set to '''External''', the user must press the button or switch again to re enable Private Mode. If Trigger type is set to '''Weekly Schedule''', the user must wait until the next scheduled activation time for Private Mode to be enabled again.'' | ||
====Feature Triggers==== | |||
This section allows the user to configure the trigger logic that switches the feature between '''Private Mode''' and '''Business Mode'''. | |||
''' | <big>'''Trigger Types'''</big> | ||
''' | '''1. External''' | ||
External triggers can be configured using Digital Inputs (DINs). | |||
When External is selected, the user can choose a specific DIN for the trigger logic. | |||
== | DIN Mode Options: | ||
* Button Mode. The selected DIN operates as a button. Private Mode is activated or deactivated when the DIN status changes (triggered on the status transition). | |||
* Switch Mode. The selected DIN operates as a switch. Private Mode is controlled based on the current DIN value: | |||
** DIN = HIGH → Private Mode enabled | |||
** DIN = LOW → Private Mode disabled | |||
<big>'''2. Weekly Schedule'''</big> | |||
[[File:Private Business mode Weekly schedule.png|right|500px]] | |||
A weekly schedule can be configured to automatically enable Private Mode at specific times based on the user defined schedule. | |||
Enables automatic switching between Private Mode and Business Mode based on configured time, date, daylight saving rules and time zones. | |||

# | # Harsh → Acceleration exceeds the limit, but event isn't registered yet (prevents false positives). | ||
# | # Cooldown → Acceleration has dropped back but might spike again; prevents rapid, repeated event logging. | ||

The Accelerometer Calibration Scenario is used to determine the tracker’s position and orientation within a vehicle and reorient the tracker to the vehicle’s coordinate system. This ensures that acceleration measurements align correctly with the vehicle’s axes: | |||

===Accelerometer Calibration Basic Principles=== | |||
The scenario relies on GNSS and accelerometer data. Since most devices do not have a gyroscope, these are the primary sources for orientation detection. The algorithm collects two types of accelerometer data: | |||
* '''Movement with Acceleration''' - When the vehicle moves straight while accelerating or decelerating, this data helps determine the front and back direction. | |||
* '''Movement Without Acceleration''' - When the vehicle moves without acceleration, it allows the system to determine the ground vector. | |||
Because devices can be mounted in various ways, they do not inherently know the directions of the vehicle’s front, back, left, right, up, and down. | |||
The GNSS module helps detect whether the vehicle is moving straight or turning. It provides speed and direction relative to the north. If the vehicle moves straight with an increasing or decreasing speed, the system collects acceleration vectors. | |||

The Jamming Detection scenario identifies instances of active GSM signal jamming on the device. The modem performs continuous jamming detection and reports any suspicious activity back to the main device. | |||
Network jamming detection serves as a useful tool, which provides the crucial benefits of preventing cargo or vehicle theft, ensuring driver safety, and maintaining uninterrupted data flow. | |||
When GSM signal jamming is detected, Network Jamming scenario activates. Then it starts a configurable jamming detection delay before generating jamming event. It is intended to reduce false positives. After the timeout ends, the device generates an event record. SMS notification Additionally, if digital output is configured, it activates already installed measures to inform driver or disrupt thieves ( like buzzer, LED indication, locking all doors etc. ). | |||
=== | ===Prerequisites and Important Settings=== | ||
* Network Jamming won’t work with Deep Sleep and Power off sleep modes turned ON. Make sure to check information in Power saving settings. | |||
* | |||
===Basic Operation=== | |||
* The modem continuously always monitors the network, scanning for potential jamming events. | |||
* Network Jamming detection scenario activates when GSM signal jamming is detected. | |||
* When GSM signal Jamming is detected, Time until jamming reporting (s) counter starts. It can be configured by user. It is intended to reduce false positives of jamming events. | |||
* If detected jamming event lasts after entire delay period, device creates a High or Low priority record labeled “Jamming started”. Additionally, if output control is configured, it will activates already installed measures to inform driver or disrupt thieves (like buzzers, LED indication, locking all doors etc.). | |||
* As soon as jamming stops (after a “Jamming started” record was generated), the device creates a “Jamming ended” record. It is sent immediately if priority level is set to High. | |||
* Eventual records function lets user choose between sending eventual records of Jamming when enabled. And if disabled – eventual and periodic records are being sent bout Jamming. | |||
* After jamming event has ended, modem continues monitoring for further jamming events. | |||

== Auto Geofence == | |||
Geofencing is a location-based technology that creates a software-defined boundary (geofence) around a geographic area (geozone). | |||
Two geofencing features are available with Teltonika Telematics devices: | |||
* '''Auto Geofence (described in this section)''' – allows automatically creating a circular geozone around the device’s last known location after it has been stationary for a specified period, then capture related events. | |||
* Manual Geofence – see [[#Manual Geofence|here]]. | |||
[[File:Auto Geofence TCT panel with DIN.png|right|500px]] | |||
The Auto Geofence feature automatically creates a circular geofence zone around a vehicle's last known location after it has been stationary for a specified period. The system then generates alarm events if the vehicle moves outside this zone, or if it moves for a sustained period without a valid GNSS signal. | |||
This functionality offers a dynamic layer of security against theft, particularly unauthorized towing, as it arms itself automatically based on vehicle behavior rather than ignition status. It is highly valuable for asset protection where vehicles make frequent, unscheduled stops. The ability to trigger an alarm even without a GNSS fix provides a crucial advantage in scenarios where a signal might be intentionally jammed or lost. | |||
The feature operates in two main states. In its "Wait State," it monitors for the vehicle to become stationary with a valid GNSS fix. Once this condition is met for a configured timeout, it creates the geofence and enters the "Active State." In the Active State, it monitors for breaches. The feature can be deactivated and returned to the Wait State by various configurable triggers, such as a change in voltage, a digital input, or the presentation of an authorized iButton. | |||
=== | ===Prerequisites and Important Settings=== | ||
* The device must have a reliable GNSS signal and be able to detect its movement status for the feature to arm correctly. | |||
* If using a deactivation source such as a Digital Input (DIN) or iButton, the corresponding hardware (e.g., ignition connection, iButton reader) must be properly installed and configured. | |||
===Basic Operation=== | |||
The feature's logic is divided into two distinct operational states: Wait State and Active State. | |||
* '''Entering the Wait State (Arming Process)''': | |||
** The system starts in the '''Wait State'''. It continuously checks for two conditions to be met simultaneously: the device must have a valid GNSS fix, and the vehicle must be stationary. | |||
** Once both conditions are met, an "Activation timeout" timer begins. If the vehicle moves or loses its GNSS fix at any point, the timer resets. | |||
** When the timer successfully completes, the device creates a circular geofence of a configured "Radius" centered on its current location. | |||
** Depending on the configuration, an "On Enter" event record can be generated at this point. The system then transitions to the Active State. | |||
* '''Active State (Monitoring and Alarm Trigger):''' | |||
** While in the '''Active State''', the geofence is armed. The system monitors for two primary breach conditions: | |||
*** '''Condition A:''' The device has a valid GNSS fix, and its current position is outside the created geofence. | |||
*** '''Condition B:''' The device does not have a GNSS fix, but it detects continuous movement for the duration of the "Activation timeout". | |||
** If either of these conditions is met, an "On Exit" event record is generated (if configured), and the system returns to the Wait State. | |||
* '''Deactivation:''' | |||
** The armed geofence can be deactivated, returning the system to the Wait State without generating an alarm. This is achieved when a configured "Deactivate by" source is triggered (e.g., Digital Input 1 becomes active). | |||

===Limitations, Edge Cases & Additional Notes=== | |||
* '''Stuck in Wait State:''' The feature will never arm if the conditions are not met. This can happen if the vehicle is constantly moving or if it is parked in a location with no GNSS signal (e.g., an underground garage). | |||
* '''Movement without GNSS:''' A key capability of this feature is generating an "On Exit" alarm if the vehicle moves for a sustained period without a GNSS fix. This is a critical security measure against signal jamming or loss. | |||
* '''Deactivation Source:''' The chosen deactivation source is the only way to disarm the feature without triggering an alarm (aside from staying within the geofence). Ensure the source aligns with the intended use case (e.g., using a Digital Input connected to the ignition). | |||
==== | ==Manual Geofence== | ||
Geofencing is a location-based technology that creates a software-defined boundary (geofence) around a geographic area (geozone). | |||
Two geofencing features are available with Teltonika Telematics devices: | |||
* Auto Geofence – see [[#Auto Geofence|here]]. | |||
* '''Manual Geofence (described in this section)''' – allows the user to manually create geozones of various shapes, then capture events related these geozones, with multiple options. | |||

---> | |||
Manual Geofence is a feature that allows the device to monitor predefined geographic zones and generate events when the device enters, exits, or exceeds a configured speed limit within those zones. A geozone is defined on a map using geometric shapes (circle, rectangle, polygon). | |||
Manual Geofence is used in fleet management, vehicle protection, and operational monitoring scenarios where location-based events are required. Typical use cases include detecting entry into restricted areas, monitoring vehicle departures from operational zones, enforcing speed limits in defined locations, or triggering device actions such as digital output control. | |||
The device continuously compares its GNSS position with configured geozone boundaries. Each scenario independently tracks whether the device is inside or outside the zone and whether the configured speed limit threshold is exceeded. When these states change, the device generates an event record containing geofence-related identifiers and event information, and can control digital outputs. | |||
In TCT, the user can create geozones by drawing them on the map. Three shapes are available: | |||
* Circle - defined by Radius and one pair of latitude/longitude (center coordinates of the circle). | |||
* Rectangle - defined by two pairs of latitude/longitude (most northwestern and southeastern corners of the rectangle). | |||
* Polygon - defined by 3-10 pairs of latitude/longitude (vertices of the polygon). | |||
Each manual geozone has various associated options. They are discussed below. | |||
===Manual geofence global settings=== | |||
In the upper right corner of the main Manual geofence window, the „Geofence settings“ button allows configuring global settings for digital output (DOUT) and timezone control accross all manual geozones. | |||
[[File:Manual geofence global settings.png|right|300px]] | |||
For each separate DOUT, the user can set up Output control settings for individual geofences. The number of DOUTs depends on device hardware. | |||
Disabling a DOUT here will disable output control configuration in all zones which use that particular DOUT. | |||
Settings here (see table below) will affect what can be configured in the „Output control“ section of a particular geozone. | |||

===Basic Operation=== | |||
Because multiple Manual Geofence scenarios can be configured, all scenarios are stored in a list and run every second. | |||
The device constantly tracks the current state related to the geozone: | |||
* | * In zone – whether the device is currently inside the geozone (changes as the device enters/exits the geozone). | ||
* Speeding – whether the device is currently exceeding the speed limit configured for the geozone (changes as device starts/stops speeding inside the geozone (on geozone exit, speeding state is set to ‘stop’)). | |||
When any of these states change, and if the device is configured to capture them, appropriate events are recorded. | |||
Manual geofence records consist of the following AVL IDs: | |||

===Geozone Parameter ID Calculation=== | |||
There are two types of parameter IDs used in the Manual Geofence scenario: | |||
* Global parameter IDs - used to configure global parameters, which can affect all scenarios; | |||
* Scenario-specific parameter IDs - used to configure scenario-specific parameters, which only affect the specific scenario. | |||
Offsets are used in order to find out any specific Parameter ID for either a global or scenario-specific parameter. | |||
====Global parameter IDs==== | |||
Global parameter IDs start from 899,900. | |||
The formula for calculating a global parameter ID is: | |||
'' | ''parameter_id = 899,900 + offset'' | ||
====Scenario-specific parameter IDs==== | |||
Scenario-specific parameter IDs start from 900,000. | |||
Each individual scenario reserves 100 parameter IDs. This means that scenario 1 parameter ID range is 900000 - 900099, scenario 2 is 900100 - 900199, etc. | |||
First 50 parameter IDs are reserved for various scenario parameters, while the latter 50 are reserved for geozone coordinates (up to 25 points). | |||
The formula for a parameter ID is: | The formula for calcuating a scenario-specific parameter ID is: | ||
''scenario_offset = (scenario_number - 1) * 100'' | |||
''parameter_id = 900,000 + scenario_offset + id_offset'' | |||
===Limitations, Edge Cases & Additional Notes=== | |||
* With [[#Private / Business mode]] Private mode active and GNSS masking enabled (Param :11813), geozone events are not recorded because GNSS data is masked(GNSS data is 0 (invalid) or last known position). | |||

== | == Fall Down Detection == | ||
[[File:Fall down detection - menu.png|right|500px]] | |||
Fall down detection is a feature which is used to detect when a two-wheeler vehicle has fallen over. The scenario uses a combination of accelerometer sensor and GNSS data to determine whether the physical orientation of the vehicle changed in such a way, that would indicate a fall down event. | |||
The feature allows to improve safety of the end user, by sending events to the fleet tracking platform indicating that the equipment has fallen over. It can help business meet safety regulations while also helping to keep riders and their equipment safe. | |||
This is achieved by the device acquiring a base vector, which will serve as a reference point for when the two-wheeler is upright. This vector is acquired by measuring the accelerometer readings when the GNSS fix is available, GNSS ground speed is 0 and no movement is detected. Once the base vector is acquired, the device will constantly monitor the readings of the accelerometer to calculate the current vector. If the difference in angle between the base vector and the current vector exceed the configured values, a fall down event will be generated and sent to the server. | |||
===Prerequisites and Important Settings=== | |||
=== < | * All accelerometer-related features, including fall down detection depend on secure device mounting to function properly. | ||
* Movement source settings are vital for proper functioning of the feature, since base vector will only be calculated when movement, according to movement source is not detected. | |||
* It is important to note, that a valid GNSS fix is also necessary for proper base vector acquiring. Due to this reason, it is not possible for the device to acquire a base vector indoors, for example, inside a garage. | |||
* If the device is remounted to another vehicle, the base vector will have to be recalculated. Base vector recalculation can be initiated via the [[SMS/GPRS command - fall_down_reset]]. | |||
===Basic Operation=== | |||
* Once the feature is enabled, the device waits until the conditions for base vector calculation are met. | |||
* Once a valid GNSS fix is available, ground speed is 0 m/s and no movement, according to the configured movement source is detected, the device initiates base vector calculation. | |||
* The device continuously reads IMU acceleration vectors, until a sufficient number of measurements have been taken. | |||
* Once the base vector is established, the device will continuously read the current vector and compare it to the base vector. | |||
* Once the base vector is established, the device will continuously read the current vector and compare it to the base vector. | |||
If a the angle difference is greater than the configured Activation Angle for more seconds than the configured Activation Timeout, a fall down event will be generated. | |||
* Once the base vector is established, the device will continuously read the current vector and compare it to the base vector. | |||
Once the angle difference returns to a value below the configured Activation Angle, the fall down event is considered over. The device returns to the monitoring state. | |||

==Static navigation== | |||
Static Navigation helps eliminate minor “jumps” in GNSS data when the vehicle or device is actually stationary.

The scenario monitors GNSS data and updates fuel usage whenever valid GNSS PVT(Position, Velocity, Time) messages are received and movement is detected. It also supports runtime reconfiguration to keep fuel usage parameters in sync with user changes. | |||
On device startup, the scenario: | |||
* Checks for a retained value of previously used fuel. | |||
* If found, it restores this value and updates the corresponding I/O element. | |||
* If no retained value is found, the system uses the current configuration parameter (user-defined or default), stores it in retained RAM for future startups, and updates the I/O element. | |||
When GNSS messages are received, the scenario determines whether they represent a GNSS source event or position data, and, if valid movement is detected, updates both distance traveled and fuel consumption. | |||
''' | If the scenario is enabled and the user modifies the average fuel usage parameter, it automatically detects any deviation between the configuration and the current I/O value and synchronizes them. | ||

==Custom scenarios== | |||
[[File:FTX Customscenarios.png|alt=|right|500px]] | |||
The Custom Scenarios feature empowers you to define custom rules (conditions) using existing IO parameters. When those rules are met, the device can generate an event record and/or toggle a digital output (DOUT). Think of it as a flexible, user-configurable “if-this-then-that” system on your tracking device. | |||
Use Cases: | |||
* Immobilizer-Style Control – Turn on/off a vehicle’s starter if certain conditions are met. | |||
* iButton Authorization – Generate a record when an authorized driver inserts an iButton, or beep a buzzer if unauthorized. | |||

DRIVING BEHAVIOR
Crash detection

The Crash detection feature detects and logs vehicle crash events using accelerometer data. The device offers two primary crash detection methods:
- Basic Crash Detection – Monitors the X and Y axes for sudden spikes in acceleration.
- Advanced Crash Detection – Builds on Basic Crash but also captures additional metrics (e.g., direction, maximum/average acceleration) and uses all three accelerometer axes.
- A Crash Trace option is also available, which collects high-frequency accelerometer samples and GNSS data before, during, and after a crash, providing detailed insight into the event.
Prerequisites
- GNSS (Optional) is required if you plan to capture concurrent GNSS data during a crash trace or rely on GNSS-based scenarios.
Parameter Description
Crash Scenario Threshold
- Basic Crash calculates the acceleration magnitude on X and Y axes only (to avoid triggering on gravity).
- Advanced Crash (when enabled) calculates magnitude on all three axes typically resulting in higher measured values.
Basic Crash Detection
- Crash Event AVL ID: 247
- Crash Detection Priority (Parameter ID 1024700): Set to Low or High to enable/disable the scenario.
Threshold & Duration
- When the accelerometer magnitude exceeds the configured threshold for the configured duration, the device flags a crash.
- The crash state continues until the acceleration drops 30% below the threshold (hysteresis) to prevent multiple crash events from small fluctuations.
Advanced Crash Detection
- Enabled if Basic Crash is enabled and Parameter ID 13102 is set to “enabled.”
- In addition to basic detection, it:
- Calculates crash duration and direction
- Captures maximum and average magnitudes, plus amplitudes on each axis.
- These extended metrics are included in the same AVL record (ID 247) once the crash ends.
Crash Trace
- When Crash Trace is enabled, the device collects high-frequency accelerometer data (~400 samples/second) plus GNSS data (1 sample/second).
- Upon a crash event (AVL ID 247 with value = 1), data continues to be collected for a configured period before and after the crash.
- A second crash record (AVL ID 247, “full crash trace” type) is generated once all data is processed, accompanied by AVL ID 257 for accelerometer axis data.
- Crash Trace timestamps match the actual collection times, providing a detailed timeline of the event.
Basic Operation
Basic Crash Detection
- IMU Reading: Each new acceleration vector is compared against the configured threshold.
- Threshold Exceeded: If the threshold is met or exceeded for the configured duration, the device flags a crash as “ongoing.”
- Hysteresis Check: The crash continues until acceleration falls 30% below the threshold.
- Crash Event: Once the acceleration returns below threshold, a Crash Event (AVL ID 247) is generated, and the crash is marked as ended.
Advanced Crash Detection
- Basic Detection as Trigger: Advanced Crash runs alongside Basic Crash. When Basic Crash sees a threshold exceedance, Advanced Crash also begins data collection on all three axes.
- Extended Metrics: As long as the device is in a crash state, the algorithm accumulates samples to compute maximum and average magnitudes/amplitudes, as well as crash direction.
- Crash End & Record: When the crash ends (per Basic Crash hysteresis), Advanced Crash finalizes its calculations and outputs a single AVL record (ID 247) with the extended data fields.
Crash Trace
- Data Collection: Accelerometer (~400 Hz) and GNSS (1 Hz) data are continuously buffered.
- Crash Start: If a crash is detected, a preliminary Crash Event (AVL ID 247, value=1) is generated. The device continues collecting data for the specified time window after the crash trigger.
- Crash End: The device finalizes the crash trace data and generates a full crash trace record (AVL ID 247 which includes:
- AVL ID 257: High-frequency accelerometer data.
- GNSS PVT data.
- Crash trace event type.
- Logging & Timestamps: The record’s timestamps correspond to the actual collection times, capturing the event’s progression before, during, and after the crash.
Records & Logging
- All crash scenarios culminate in event records with AVL ID 247.
- Advanced Crash adds extended crash metrics into the same event record.
- Crash Trace finalizes with an additional record containing AVL ID 257 for high-frequency accelerometer samples.
Private / Business mode

This feature enables employees to use company vehicles for personal purposes while maintaining compliance with EU General Data Protection Regulation requirements. When Private mode is active, the device masks location data and other sensitive information to prevent unauthorized tracking. Business mode restores full data visibility for standard fleet operations.
Private/Business Mode is used in fleet operations where employees may drive company vehicles for both work and personal needs. It helps ensure privacy during personal use by disabling location reporting, while still providing full tracking and operational data during business use.
In the TCT Features section, the Private / Business Mode allows the user to configure when the private mode should activate and deactivate by selecting one of the available feature triggers: a weekly scheduler or an external trigger type. Additionally, the user can define how the system should handle GNSS and odometer data while private mode is active. The feature also supports automatic deactivation of private mode when specific events are detected, such as Unplug, Towing, and other configured triggers.
Prerequisites and Important Settings
- After exiting any sleep mode, DOUT and Private/Business state will automatically return to the values they had before entering the sleep mode.
Basic Operation
- In the Private/Business window, the user can set the priority level used for sending messages (HIGH or LOW priority).
- The DOUT control function allows indicating the state of Private Mode.When Private Mode is detected as ON, the configured DOUT output will also be switched ON.
DOUT State in Sleep mode
In different sleep modes, DOUT behavior and Private/Business states are:
| MODE | DOUT STATE | PRIVATE/BUSINESS MODE STATE |
|---|---|---|
| Online Sleep | Last state before entering sleep | Last state before entering sleep |
| Deep Sleep | Last state before entering sleep | Last state before entering Deep Sleep |
| Power Off Sleep | DOUT is OFF | Last state before entering Power Off Sleep |
After exiting any sleep mode, DOUT and Private/Business state return to the state they were in before entering the sleep mode.
GNSS Data Masking defines how the device will handle location information (GNSS data) while in Private Mode:
- No masking – GNSS information is not hidden.
- GNSS data is sent as zero – In every record sent to the server, the GNSS fields (latitude, longitude, altitude, angle, and number of satellites) are set to "0". Additionally, GSM Cell ID and GSM Area Code information will not be sent.
- GNSS data is sent as last known good position – The last valid GNSS data (latitude, longitude, altitude) recorded before entering Private Mode is sent in every record.
The following I/O elements are sent as "0":
- GSM Cell ID (AVL ID 205)
- GSM Area Code (AVL ID 206)
- Private Mode Odometer Stop - when enabled, the device does not accumulate odometer data while Private Mode is active.
- Private Business Deactivation – enables the system to automatically deactivate Private Mode based on selected scenarios.
Available scenarios include: Towing, Unplug, Crash and Autogeofence. The user can select one, several, or all scenarios from the dropdown menu.
NOTE! If Trigger type is set to External, the user must press the button or switch again to re enable Private Mode. If Trigger type is set to Weekly Schedule, the user must wait until the next scheduled activation time for Private Mode to be enabled again.
Feature Triggers
This section allows the user to configure the trigger logic that switches the feature between Private Mode and Business Mode.
Trigger Types
1. External
External triggers can be configured using Digital Inputs (DINs). When External is selected, the user can choose a specific DIN for the trigger logic.
DIN Mode Options:
- Button Mode. The selected DIN operates as a button. Private Mode is activated or deactivated when the DIN status changes (triggered on the status transition).
- Switch Mode. The selected DIN operates as a switch. Private Mode is controlled based on the current DIN value:
- DIN = HIGH → Private Mode enabled
- DIN = LOW → Private Mode disabled
2. Weekly Schedule

A weekly schedule can be configured to automatically enable Private Mode at specific times based on the user defined schedule.
Enables automatic switching between Private Mode and Business Mode based on configured time, date, daylight saving rules and time zones.

Overspeeding

The Overspeeding scenario detects when a vehicle exceeds a configured maximum speed and generates a record. Another record is generated when the speed returns to normal.
Purpose:
- Promote safe and economic driving.
- Provide real-time alerts on speed violations.
- Generate automatic reports for fleet management.
How It Works
Speed Monitoring
- The system continuously monitors vehicle speed.
- If the speed exceeds the configured max speed by an allowed tolerance, a record is triggered.
Event Recording
- A record is generated when:
- The vehicle exceeds the max speed + 2 km/h.
- The vehicle speed returns to normal (below max speed - 2 km/h).
Customization Options
- Max speed limit: Default is 90 km/h, but it can be customized.
- Record priority: Can be set to low or high (adjusted in Telematics Configuration Tool (TCT) under Features → Driving Behavior).
- Feature status: Disabled by default, must be manually enabled.
Prerequisites
- The device must have active GNSS tracking to monitor speed accurately.

The Trip feature allows users to track vehicle journeys from start to finish based on a combination of ignition, movement, and speed parameters. During an active trip, the device maintains a running odometer (Trip Odometer), which is reset once the trip ends.
Prerequisites
- You must have proper Ignition and Movement sources configured in the device (e.g., ignition signal, GNSS, accelerometer) so that the device can detect when the vehicle is actually running and moving.
- The I/O Trip Odometer must be enabled for the device to log distance traveled during a trip.
Parameter Description
Start Speed
- Defines the minimum GPS speed (in km/h) the vehicle must exceed to begin a trip.
- Default: 5 km/h
Ignition OFF Timeout
- Sets the time (in seconds) the system waits after the ignition source turns OFF before officially ending the trip.
- Default: 60 seconds
Trip Odometer
- An internal I/O value that tracks how far the vehicle travels between Trip start and Trip end.
- Automatically resets to 0 when a new trip begins.
Basic Operation
Trip Start
- The device monitors both Ignition (configured ignition source) and Movement (configured movement source).
- Once Ignition is ON, Movement is ON and the vehicle GPS speed exceeds the Start Speed (default: 5 km/h), the trip is marked as “started.”
During the Trip
- The Trip Odometer increments continuously to reflect the total distance traveled.
- Any event triggers, such as data logging or notifications, will note that the vehicle is in an active trip state.
Trip End
- When the Ignition source turns OFF, the device starts the Ignition OFF Timeout countdown (default: 60s).
- If the ignition remains OFF for the entire timeout duration, the trip is ended.
- The Trip Odometer value is stored and then reset to 0 before the next trip begins.
Record Generation & Logging
- Depending on the device’s configuration, a record can be generated at Trip start and Trip end to facilitate reporting and analytics.
- Trip distance data is captured in the I/O Trip Odometer field, which is useful for fleet management or mileage reporting.
Odometer

The Odometer scenario calculates the total distance traveled by a vehicle using GNSS data. To ensure accuracy and reduce system load, small thresholds are applied to both distance and speed. The device also performs a sanity check to confirm each new distance reading is valid and reasonable.
Prerequisites
- You must be able to configure odometer parameters (e.g., ID 11807) and potentially format or reset the device’s non-volatile memory (NVM).
Parameter Description
Distance and Speed Thresholds
- Minimum distance to update: 2.5 meters
- Minimum ground speed to update: 0.42 m/s
- These thresholds prevent minor fluctuations from inflating the odometer reading.
Sanity Checks
- Timestamp Validation: The current PVT (position, velocity, time) data must be newer than the previous reading.
- Distance Spike Prevention:The device discards any reading suggesting a speed greater than 350 meters/second, as it indicates erroneous data.
Total Odometer Value (ID 11807)
- The total distance traveled is stored internally (in NVM) to preserve the odometer value.
- This value is written to memory every kilometer to reduce flash wear.
- Manually setting or resetting this parameter (via ID 11807 allows the odometer to start from a custom value.
- After formatting or resetting the NVM, the odometer value may be cleared unless reconfigured.
Min/Max Values for ID 11807:
- Minimum: 0
- Maximum: 4294967
Basic Operation
Odometer Updates
- As the vehicle travels, the device checks the GNSS-reported distance in increments. Once the minimum distance (2.5 m) and speed (0.42 m/s) thresholds are exceeded, it updates the total odometer.
- Every 1 km increment, the new odometer value is saved to NVM.
Data Validation
- Each new reading is compared against the previous PVT data. If the time is older or the speed exceeds 350 m/s, the reading is disregarded.
- This ensures only valid and realistic data points are recorded.
Odometer Preservation
- The total odometer value is maintained even if the device reboots or loses power, unless an NVM format or parameter reset occurs.
- To continue from a known distance, set the starting odometer value via ID 11807. The device will then count upward from that point.
Eco driving

The Eco Driving scenario is designed to detect and analyze aggressive driving behaviors such as, Harsh acceleration, Harsh braking, and Harsh cornering. It uses data from either an accelerometer or GNSS to track driving patterns. When a threshold is exceeded for a specific duration, the system generates an eventual record to highlight unsafe driving actions.
Prerequisites
Scenario Activation
- The device needs a stable GNSS fix or properly calibrated accelerometer for accurate event detection.
Parameter Description
- Priority - Defines the importance level of generated Eco Driving events.
- Acceleration Source - Specifies where the acceleration data is taken from:
- Accelerometer → Uses data from the device’s built-in accelerometer chip.
- GNSS → Uses speed and heading data from GNSS to calculate acceleration vectors.
- Thresholds (Acceleration Limits in m/s²) - Maximum allowed acceleration values before triggering an event:
- Acceleration Threshold → Forward acceleration limit.
- Braking Threshold → Backward acceleration limit.
- Cornering Threshold → Side (left/right) acceleration limit.
Basic Operation
An Eco Driving event is triggered when all of the following conditions are met:
- Scenario is enabled
- Ignition is ON
- GNSS fix is present
- Vehicle speed is above 10 km/h for the event’s duration
- Acceleration exceeds the configured threshold and stays above it for at least 0.5 seconds
- Acceleration drops below the threshold and stays there for 0.5 seconds
Once an event is detected:
- A new record is generated, identifying the type of Eco Driving event.
- The following IO parameters are updated:
- Eco Driving type (AVL ID 253) → Identifies event type:
- 1 = Harsh acceleration
- 2 = Harsh braking
- 3 = Harsh cornering
- Eco Driving value (AVL ID 254) → Records the peak acceleration value (measured in hundredths of g).
- Eco Driving type (AVL ID 253) → Identifies event type:
Scenario States
The system operates as a state machine with 4 states:
- Idle → No event detection (vehicle speed too low, no GNSS fix, ignition off, etc.).
- Eco → Normal driving, acceleration remains within safe thresholds.
- Harsh → Acceleration exceeds the limit, but event isn't registered yet (prevents false positives).
- Cooldown → Acceleration has dropped back but might spike again; prevents rapid, repeated event logging.
If the acceleration remains high beyond the cooldown period, the event is officially recorded.
Notes & Edge Cases
Repeated Accelerations in the Same Direction
- If multiple harsh acceleration spikes occur within 0.5 seconds, they are considered part of the same event rather than separate ones.
Speed Drops Below 10 km/h
- If speed drops below the activation speed during an ongoing event, further acceleration values are ignored until speed increases again.
- This might result in:
- The peak acceleration not being recorded accurately.
- No event being logged at all, depending on conditions.
Directional Independence
- Each movement direction (forward, backward, left, right) is analyzed separately.
- Example: a left-turn event does not interfere with acceleration/braking event detection.
Identification scenario
Parameter Description
Authorized Devices List
- Maintains a list of devices that have been authenticated and are permitted to connect or be recognized without further checks.
- When a new device is approved, it’s added to this list.
Scenario functionality can be divided into 5 states:
- Idle
- Waits for detection or expiration events.
- If a device detected event occurs, transitions to Authorization.
- If a device expired event occurs, transitions to Device Expired.
- Authorization
- Triggered when a new device is detected.
- Checks if the device is authorized:
- If not authorized, it returns to Idle (no record generated).
- If authorized and first occurrence, transitions to Device Online.
- If authorized and subsequent occurrence, transitions to Device Update.
- Device Online
- Generates a "Device Online" record (e.g., AVL) for an authorized device’s first recognition.
- Moves the device to the “already authorized devices” list.
- Returns to Idle.
- Device Update
- Reached if the device is authorized and not in its first occurrence.
- Updates the device record to reflect the new detection time or any changes in state.
- Returns to Idle.
- Device Expired
- Triggered if the device’s authorization has ended (e.g., time limit expired or device removed from the system).
- If the device is still in the authorization list, generates a “Device Expired” record and removes the device from the authorized list.
- Returns to Idle.
Record Generation
- Periodic or Eventual: Records related to device detection can be configured with different priorities—Low (periodic) or High (immediate).
- Record Types
- Device Online
- Device Update
- Device Expired
Accelerometer calibration scenario
The Accelerometer Calibration Scenario is used to determine the tracker’s position and orientation within a vehicle and reorient the tracker to the vehicle’s coordinate system. This ensures that acceleration measurements align correctly with the vehicle’s axes:
- X-axis → Forward/Backward
- Y-axis → Left/Right
- Z-axis → Up/Down
By calibrating the accelerometer, the system can accurately interpret vehicle movements, reducing errors caused by varying device installation orientations.
Accelerometer Calibration Basic Principles
The scenario relies on GNSS and accelerometer data. Since most devices do not have a gyroscope, these are the primary sources for orientation detection. The algorithm collects two types of accelerometer data:
- Movement with Acceleration - When the vehicle moves straight while accelerating or decelerating, this data helps determine the front and back direction.
- Movement Without Acceleration - When the vehicle moves without acceleration, it allows the system to determine the ground vector.
Because devices can be mounted in various ways, they do not inherently know the directions of the vehicle’s front, back, left, right, up, and down.
The GNSS module helps detect whether the vehicle is moving straight or turning. It provides speed and direction relative to the north. If the vehicle moves straight with an increasing or decreasing speed, the system collects acceleration vectors.
Once a sufficient number of data points are collected:
- The forward vector is calculated.
- The ground vector is determined.
- The device’s orientation in the vehicle coordinate system is established.
This allows for the calculation of quaternions, which express the device’s rotation within the vehicle. These quaternions are then applied to new accelerometer readings, ensuring they align with the vehicle’s coordinate system. As a result, all future accelerometer data correctly reflect the vehicle’s motion.
Prerequisites
- A valid GNSS fix.
- The device should be mounted securely in the vehicle to avoid incorrect readings.
Excessive idling

Scenario used to detect when a vehicle is stopped for a long time with a running engine, which is bad for fuel consumption and environmental effects.
Prerequisites
This scenario uses two global configuration parameters to work:
- Ignition source – used to detect if a vehicle is on or off.
- Movement source – used to detect if a vehicle is moving or not.
Ignition detection is determined by ignition source in system settings. Movement detection is determined by Movement source system settings.
For this scenario ignition is used as is, but there are modifications to the movement parameter. Movement will be also detected when there is GNSS fix and ground speed is more than 5 km/h. This option is not configurable and cannot be turned off.
Scenario can be in 1 of 2 states:
- Moving - inactive state. Vehicle is moving or stopped, but time to stop timeout has not been reached yet. Will also be forced when ignition is OFF;
- Idle - active state. Vehicle is stopped or moving, but time to movement timeout has not been reached yet.
Parameter description
Priority:
- Low – Event will be sent together with periodic records according to data acquisition settings.
- High – Event will be sent immediately not considering for data acquisition settings.
Time to stopped - The time in seconds for how long vehicle should not move with the ignition ON (by "Ignition source") to enter the excessive idling state. Time to moving – The time in seconds for how long vehicle should move with the ignition ON (by "Ignition source") to exit the excessive idling state.
VEHICLE PROTECTION
Network Jamming

The Jamming Detection scenario identifies instances of active GSM signal jamming on the device. The modem performs continuous jamming detection and reports any suspicious activity back to the main device.
Network jamming detection serves as a useful tool, which provides the crucial benefits of preventing cargo or vehicle theft, ensuring driver safety, and maintaining uninterrupted data flow.
When GSM signal jamming is detected, Network Jamming scenario activates. Then it starts a configurable jamming detection delay before generating jamming event. It is intended to reduce false positives. After the timeout ends, the device generates an event record. SMS notification Additionally, if digital output is configured, it activates already installed measures to inform driver or disrupt thieves ( like buzzer, LED indication, locking all doors etc. ).
Prerequisites and Important Settings
- Network Jamming won’t work with Deep Sleep and Power off sleep modes turned ON. Make sure to check information in Power saving settings.
Basic Operation
- The modem continuously always monitors the network, scanning for potential jamming events.
- Network Jamming detection scenario activates when GSM signal jamming is detected.
- When GSM signal Jamming is detected, Time until jamming reporting (s) counter starts. It can be configured by user. It is intended to reduce false positives of jamming events.
- If detected jamming event lasts after entire delay period, device creates a High or Low priority record labeled “Jamming started”. Additionally, if output control is configured, it will activates already installed measures to inform driver or disrupt thieves (like buzzers, LED indication, locking all doors etc.).
- As soon as jamming stops (after a “Jamming started” record was generated), the device creates a “Jamming ended” record. It is sent immediately if priority level is set to High.
- Eventual records function lets user choose between sending eventual records of Jamming when enabled. And if disabled – eventual and periodic records are being sent bout Jamming.
- After jamming event has ended, modem continues monitoring for further jamming events.
Parameters
| PARAMETER NAME | PARAMETER ID (RELATED AVL ID) | DESCRIPTION | VALUES |
|---|---|---|---|
| Network jamming detection | 1024900 (249) |
The feature detects GSM jamming, initiates actions using an output, and helps to prevent vehicle theft when jamming devices are used. A low signal level is not equal to GSM jamming, the device recognizes these events. | 0 = Disable Disable scenario.
1 = Low priority Device makes an additional record with indication of event cause. 2 = High priority Device makes an additional record with high priority flag and immediately sends an event packet to the server by GPRS. |
| Time until jamming reporting (s) | 11305 | Jamming - network signal disruption. Time until jamming reporting is the time between jamming being detected and the record creation. Value in seconds. | Minimum value = 0 Maximum value = 65535 Default value = 60 |
| Eventual records | 1024904 | Enables feature status sending only when the event happens (an eventual record). When disabled, feature status will be sent with both eventual and periodical records. | 0 = Disable 1 = Enable |
Unplug detection

Unplug Detection is a feature that identifies when a device transitions between being powered by external voltage and running on internal power only. The device generates a record (AVL ID 252) with a configured priority whenever it is plugged in or unplugged.
Prerequisites & Important Settings
- External Power Source - The vehicle or external system must provide a stable voltage supply that can be monitored by the device.
Parameter Description
Unplug Detection Mode
- Simple - monitors external voltage to determine when the device is plugged or unplugged.
- Recommended for vehicles where power voltage does not depend on ignition status.
- Advanced - monitors both external voltage and accelerometer data.
- Suitable for vehicles where power voltage is disconnected when ignition is off; the accelerometer helps confirm unplug events more reliably.
AVL ID 252
- The record ID generated when the device is plugged or unplugged.
- The user can configure priority (Low, High, etc.) to decide how the record is reported and logged.
Basic Operation
Simple Mode
- The device regularly checks the external power line.
- When external voltage is lost (drops below a configured threshold), the device deems itself unplugged and generates a "Power Unplugged" record.
- When external voltage returns (exceeds the threshold), the device deems itself plugged and generates a "Power Plugged" record.
Advanced Mode
- The device monitors both external voltage and the accelerometer.
- If external power is lost but the accelerometer indicates movement or vibration (e.g., ignition turned off in some vehicles), the device can confirm that an unplug event truly occurred.
- When power is restored along with the lack of movement, or once the system stabilizes, a plugged event is generated.
Record Generation & Logging
- Whenever a change in power source state is detected (plugged or unplugged), an AVL ID 252 record is created with the configured priority.
- Depending on the priority level, the device may send the record immediately (High priority) or with the next scheduled data batch (Low priority).
Auto Geofence
Geofencing is a location-based technology that creates a software-defined boundary (geofence) around a geographic area (geozone).
Two geofencing features are available with Teltonika Telematics devices:
- Auto Geofence (described in this section) – allows automatically creating a circular geozone around the device’s last known location after it has been stationary for a specified period, then capture related events.
- Manual Geofence – see here.

The Auto Geofence feature automatically creates a circular geofence zone around a vehicle's last known location after it has been stationary for a specified period. The system then generates alarm events if the vehicle moves outside this zone, or if it moves for a sustained period without a valid GNSS signal.
This functionality offers a dynamic layer of security against theft, particularly unauthorized towing, as it arms itself automatically based on vehicle behavior rather than ignition status. It is highly valuable for asset protection where vehicles make frequent, unscheduled stops. The ability to trigger an alarm even without a GNSS fix provides a crucial advantage in scenarios where a signal might be intentionally jammed or lost.
The feature operates in two main states. In its "Wait State," it monitors for the vehicle to become stationary with a valid GNSS fix. Once this condition is met for a configured timeout, it creates the geofence and enters the "Active State." In the Active State, it monitors for breaches. The feature can be deactivated and returned to the Wait State by various configurable triggers, such as a change in voltage, a digital input, or the presentation of an authorized iButton.
Prerequisites and Important Settings
- The device must have a reliable GNSS signal and be able to detect its movement status for the feature to arm correctly.
- If using a deactivation source such as a Digital Input (DIN) or iButton, the corresponding hardware (e.g., ignition connection, iButton reader) must be properly installed and configured.
Basic Operation
The feature's logic is divided into two distinct operational states: Wait State and Active State.
- Entering the Wait State (Arming Process):
- The system starts in the Wait State. It continuously checks for two conditions to be met simultaneously: the device must have a valid GNSS fix, and the vehicle must be stationary.
- Once both conditions are met, an "Activation timeout" timer begins. If the vehicle moves or loses its GNSS fix at any point, the timer resets.
- When the timer successfully completes, the device creates a circular geofence of a configured "Radius" centered on its current location.
- Depending on the configuration, an "On Enter" event record can be generated at this point. The system then transitions to the Active State.
- Active State (Monitoring and Alarm Trigger):
- While in the Active State, the geofence is armed. The system monitors for two primary breach conditions:
- Condition A: The device has a valid GNSS fix, and its current position is outside the created geofence.
- Condition B: The device does not have a GNSS fix, but it detects continuous movement for the duration of the "Activation timeout".
- If either of these conditions is met, an "On Exit" event record is generated (if configured), and the system returns to the Wait State.
- While in the Active State, the geofence is armed. The system monitors for two primary breach conditions:
- Deactivation:
- The armed geofence can be deactivated, returning the system to the Wait State without generating an alarm. This is achieved when a configured "Deactivate by" source is triggered (e.g., Digital Input 1 becomes active).
Parameter list
| PARAMETER NAME | PARAMETER ID (RELATED AVL ID) | DESCRIPTION | VALUES |
|---|---|---|---|
| Auto geofence | 1017500 | Disables, or enables and sets priority for record generation. | 0 = Disable scenario.
1 = Low priority Device makes an additional record with indication of event cause. 2 = High priority Device makes an additional record with high priority flag and immediately sends an event packet to the server by GPRS. |
| Generate event | 20001 | Defines when the event will be generated | 0 = On exit 1 = On enter |
| Activation timeout (s) | 20002 | Sets the duration in seconds for two conditions: 1. In Wait State: how long the vehicle must be stationary with a GNSS fix before the geofence is armed. |
Minimum value = 0 Maximum value = 65535 |
| Radius (m) | 20003 | Sets the radius of the circular geofence in meters, measured from the vehicle's position when armed. | Minimum value = 0 Maximum value = 1000000 |
Limitations, Edge Cases & Additional Notes
- Stuck in Wait State: The feature will never arm if the conditions are not met. This can happen if the vehicle is constantly moving or if it is parked in a location with no GNSS signal (e.g., an underground garage).
- Movement without GNSS: A key capability of this feature is generating an "On Exit" alarm if the vehicle moves for a sustained period without a GNSS fix. This is a critical security measure against signal jamming or loss.
- Deactivation Source: The chosen deactivation source is the only way to disarm the feature without triggering an alarm (aside from staying within the geofence). Ensure the source aligns with the intended use case (e.g., using a Digital Input connected to the ignition).
Manual Geofence
Geofencing is a location-based technology that creates a software-defined boundary (geofence) around a geographic area (geozone).
Two geofencing features are available with Teltonika Telematics devices:
- Auto Geofence – see here.
- Manual Geofence (described in this section) – allows the user to manually create geozones of various shapes, then capture events related these geozones, with multiple options.

Manual Geofence is a feature that allows the device to monitor predefined geographic zones and generate events when the device enters, exits, or exceeds a configured speed limit within those zones. A geozone is defined on a map using geometric shapes (circle, rectangle, polygon).
Manual Geofence is used in fleet management, vehicle protection, and operational monitoring scenarios where location-based events are required. Typical use cases include detecting entry into restricted areas, monitoring vehicle departures from operational zones, enforcing speed limits in defined locations, or triggering device actions such as digital output control.
The device continuously compares its GNSS position with configured geozone boundaries. Each scenario independently tracks whether the device is inside or outside the zone and whether the configured speed limit threshold is exceeded. When these states change, the device generates an event record containing geofence-related identifiers and event information, and can control digital outputs.
In TCT, the user can create geozones by drawing them on the map. Three shapes are available:
- Circle - defined by Radius and one pair of latitude/longitude (center coordinates of the circle).
- Rectangle - defined by two pairs of latitude/longitude (most northwestern and southeastern corners of the rectangle).
- Polygon - defined by 3-10 pairs of latitude/longitude (vertices of the polygon).
Each manual geozone has various associated options. They are discussed below.
Manual geofence global settings
In the upper right corner of the main Manual geofence window, the „Geofence settings“ button allows configuring global settings for digital output (DOUT) and timezone control accross all manual geozones.

For each separate DOUT, the user can set up Output control settings for individual geofences. The number of DOUTs depends on device hardware.
Disabling a DOUT here will disable output control configuration in all zones which use that particular DOUT.
Settings here (see table below) will affect what can be configured in the „Output control“ section of a particular geozone.

A value in milliseconds, for how long DOUT should be inactive. | Min = 1 Max = 5000 Default = "200" |
Basic Operation
Because multiple Manual Geofence scenarios can be configured, all scenarios are stored in a list and run every second.
The device constantly tracks the current state related to the geozone:
- In zone – whether the device is currently inside the geozone (changes as the device enters/exits the geozone).
- Speeding – whether the device is currently exceeding the speed limit configured for the geozone (changes as device starts/stops speeding inside the geozone (on geozone exit, speeding state is set to ‘stop’)).
When any of these states change, and if the device is configured to capture them, appropriate events are recorded.
Manual geofence records consist of the following AVL IDs:
- 155 - used to identify the specific manual geofence scenario, which generated the event:
- Value = (<scenario_id> - 1); eg. scenario 10 generates AVL ID 155 with value 9;
- 156 - In-zone event. Is added to the record if an in-zone event was captured;
- 0 - Exit event;
- 1 - Enter event.
- 157 - Speeding event. Is added to the record if a speeding event was captured.
- 0 - Speeding stop event;
- 1 - Speeding start event.

Geozone Parameter ID Calculation
There are two types of parameter IDs used in the Manual Geofence scenario:
- Global parameter IDs - used to configure global parameters, which can affect all scenarios;
- Scenario-specific parameter IDs - used to configure scenario-specific parameters, which only affect the specific scenario.
Offsets are used in order to find out any specific Parameter ID for either a global or scenario-specific parameter.
Global parameter IDs
Global parameter IDs start from 899,900.
The formula for calculating a global parameter ID is:
parameter_id = 899,900 + offset
Scenario-specific parameter IDs
Scenario-specific parameter IDs start from 900,000.
Each individual scenario reserves 100 parameter IDs. This means that scenario 1 parameter ID range is 900000 - 900099, scenario 2 is 900100 - 900199, etc.
First 50 parameter IDs are reserved for various scenario parameters, while the latter 50 are reserved for geozone coordinates (up to 25 points).
The formula for calcuating a scenario-specific parameter ID is: scenario_offset = (scenario_number - 1) * 100
parameter_id = 900,000 + scenario_offset + id_offset

- With #Private / Business mode Private mode active and GNSS masking enabled (Param :11813), geozone events are not recorded because GNSS data is masked(GNSS data is 0 (invalid) or last known position).
Towing detection

This scenario detects when a vehicle is being towed, whether it is lifted at an angle or as a whole. The detection is based on accelerometer data and external triggers such as ignition and movement
Basic Operation
- The scenario activates when the ignition is OFF and stops if the ignition turns ON.
- It monitors the accelerometer data for sudden angle changes or movements that indicate towing.
- If the vehicle remains in a towed state for a configured duration, an event is recorded
- Once the towing stops, the scenario logs an event
Scenario States
Waiting for Activation:
- The scenario starts when ignition is OFF.
- It waits for a configured activation delay before monitoring accelerometer data.
Monitoring for Towing:
- When the first valid accelerometer reading is received, the device sets a reference vector (baseline position).
- It continuously checks if an angle or movement threshold is exceeded.
Towing Detection:
- If the threshold is exceeded for the configured duration, the scenario moves to the active towing state and logs an event.
Towing Active State:
- The device waits for movement to stop before resetting.
- If movement resumes, the timer resets, extending the active state.
- If no movement is detected for the configured Movement Stop Delay, the scenario logs a towing end event
Reset & Restart:
- After detecting the end of towing, the scenario resets and returns to the waiting for activation state.
OTHER FEATURES
Fall Down Detection

Fall down detection is a feature which is used to detect when a two-wheeler vehicle has fallen over. The scenario uses a combination of accelerometer sensor and GNSS data to determine whether the physical orientation of the vehicle changed in such a way, that would indicate a fall down event.
The feature allows to improve safety of the end user, by sending events to the fleet tracking platform indicating that the equipment has fallen over. It can help business meet safety regulations while also helping to keep riders and their equipment safe.
This is achieved by the device acquiring a base vector, which will serve as a reference point for when the two-wheeler is upright. This vector is acquired by measuring the accelerometer readings when the GNSS fix is available, GNSS ground speed is 0 and no movement is detected. Once the base vector is acquired, the device will constantly monitor the readings of the accelerometer to calculate the current vector. If the difference in angle between the base vector and the current vector exceed the configured values, a fall down event will be generated and sent to the server.
Prerequisites and Important Settings
- All accelerometer-related features, including fall down detection depend on secure device mounting to function properly.
- Movement source settings are vital for proper functioning of the feature, since base vector will only be calculated when movement, according to movement source is not detected.
- It is important to note, that a valid GNSS fix is also necessary for proper base vector acquiring. Due to this reason, it is not possible for the device to acquire a base vector indoors, for example, inside a garage.
- If the device is remounted to another vehicle, the base vector will have to be recalculated. Base vector recalculation can be initiated via the SMS/GPRS command - fall_down_reset.
Basic Operation
- Once the feature is enabled, the device waits until the conditions for base vector calculation are met.
- Once a valid GNSS fix is available, ground speed is 0 m/s and no movement, according to the configured movement source is detected, the device initiates base vector calculation.
- The device continuously reads IMU acceleration vectors, until a sufficient number of measurements have been taken.
- Once the base vector is established, the device will continuously read the current vector and compare it to the base vector.
- Once the base vector is established, the device will continuously read the current vector and compare it to the base vector.
If a the angle difference is greater than the configured Activation Angle for more seconds than the configured Activation Timeout, a fall down event will be generated.
- Once the base vector is established, the device will continuously read the current vector and compare it to the base vector.
Once the angle difference returns to a value below the configured Activation Angle, the fall down event is considered over. The device returns to the monitoring state.

Static Navigation helps eliminate minor “jumps” in GNSS data when the vehicle or device is actually stationary. Because GNSS signals can fluctuate, your device might appear to move slightly even when it’s not moving at all. With Static Navigation, speed and position changes are filtered out to provide a more accurate representation of a stationary vehicle.
Basic Operation
Check Movement Status
- The device looks at its movement source (e.g., built-in accelerometer, speed reading from GNSS, etc.).
- If this source indicates the device is not moving, the system enables Static Navigation (assuming you’ve enabled it in the configurator).
Filter GNSS Fluctuations
- With Static Navigation on, the device discards small, spurious position changes from the GNSS.
- The internal angle and speed are treated as "0" until genuine movement is detected again.
GNSS Data vs. Device State
- When movement is detected, Static Navigation disables itself, allowing normal GNSS position updates.
- If the device becomes stationary once more, Static Navigation re-enables to filter out jitter.
Ignition ON counter

Ignition ON Counter feature continuously tracks how long a vehicle has spent with the active ignition.
It serves as an useful tool for maintenance schedules, driver oversight, and any application where total engine running time matters.
When Ignition ON counter feature is enabled, it starts to monitor the ignition source. The moment ignition value changes to ON, it starts to count the actvie ingnition time (in seconds). SMS nofications about the event status will be sent to predefined number, if it was configured in Input/output and SMS/call settings. Additionally, Ignition ON counter default value can be set to specific number, other than zero. In that way, when ignition value changes to ON, counting adds the active ignition time to the already predefiend value. Once Ignition source state changes to OFF, it saves the last value to Ignition on counter value field and will start counting from this exact saved value if Ignition source changes again.
Prerequisites and Important Settings
- For the functionality to work properly and to achieve the desired results, it's recommended to check the Ignition settings Source section in configurator.
- To ensure proper and desired notification of functionality status changes, check if it's enabled and configured in the configurator's SMS / call settings and Input / output (I/O) sections.
- To avoid incorrect value calculations, always check the set value in the configurator's Ignition on counter value (s).
Basic Operation
- Ignition ON counter scenario starts, when it is enabled in configurator’s Features section.
- It monitors the state of ignition source.
Suitable Ignition source can be set in System settings section, under Ignition settings.
- When ignition source state changes to ON, counting of active ignition time starts (in seconds). It increments counter every 500ms.
SMS notifications about scenario state changes are sent, according to configured settings. Notification settings can be set in SMS/call settings section under SMS events and in Input /output (I/O) settings under Permanent I/O.
- When ignition source state changes to OFF, counter value is saved to device’s memory.
Also, counter value is saved before device restarts and when counter value is changed in configurator.
- After the ignition is turned OFF and later turned ON again, "Ignition on counter" value will continue counting from the last saved value.
Parameters
| PARAMETER NAME | PARAMETER ID (RELATED AVL ID) | DESCRIPTION | VALUES |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ignition ON counter | 1044900 (449) |
The feature counts the time spent with the active ignition and the counter value can be set according to your needs. After the ignition is turned OFF and later turned ON again, "Ignition on counter" value will continue counting (from the last saved value). |
0 = Disable Disable scenario.
1 = Low priority Device makes an additional record with indication of event cause. 2 = High priority Device makes an additional record with high priority flag and immediately sends an event packet to the server by GPRS. |
| Ignition on counter value (s) | 13501 | Ignition on counter value to be used initially. | Minimum value = 0 Maximum value = 4294967295 |
Limitations, Edge Cases & Additional Notes
- When manually setting a new counter value via the TCT configurator, the counter increment parameter may override the new value. This can cause the update to be ignored. This issue only occurs when the value is set manually.
- On rare occasions the counter value may not be saved to the device's flash memory due to a sudden software crash or a power cut.
GNSS Fuel Counter

The Fuel Counter GNSS scenario provides fuel consumption estimation using GNSS-derived distance and user-configured fuel rate. It calculates the amount of fuel used by multiplying traveled distance by the average fuel rate and converting it to appropriate units. It is a software-based alternative when fuel flow sensors are not available.
Basic Operation
The scenario monitors GNSS data and updates fuel usage whenever valid GNSS PVT(Position, Velocity, Time) messages are received and movement is detected. It also supports runtime reconfiguration to keep fuel usage parameters in sync with user changes.
On device startup, the scenario:
- Checks for a retained value of previously used fuel.
- If found, it restores this value and updates the corresponding I/O element.
- If no retained value is found, the system uses the current configuration parameter (user-defined or default), stores it in retained RAM for future startups, and updates the I/O element.
When GNSS messages are received, the scenario determines whether they represent a GNSS source event or position data, and, if valid movement is detected, updates both distance traveled and fuel consumption.
If the scenario is enabled and the user modifies the average fuel usage parameter, it automatically detects any deviation between the configuration and the current I/O value and synchronizes them.
Parameters
| PARAMETER NAME | PARAMETER ID (RELATED AVL ID) | DESCRIPTION | VALUES |
|---|---|---|---|
| Scenario priority | 1001200 (12) |
Priority of how events are being sent to a server. For example, events with low priority are added to the periodical record, and events with high priority are sent immediately after they occur. | Disable = 0 Low priority = 1 High priority = 2 |
| Average consumption | 11902 | Average consumption presented in the technical documentation of the vehicle. | Minimum value = 0.0 Maximum value = 50.0 Default value = 0.0 |

Custom scenarios

The Custom Scenarios feature empowers you to define custom rules (conditions) using existing IO parameters. When those rules are met, the device can generate an event record and/or toggle a digital output (DOUT). Think of it as a flexible, user-configurable “if-this-then-that” system on your tracking device.
Use Cases:
- Immobilizer-Style Control – Turn on/off a vehicle’s starter if certain conditions are met.
- iButton Authorization – Generate a record when an authorized driver inserts an iButton, or beep a buzzer if unauthorized.
Key Features
Record Generation
- Generate records when a scenario activates (goes from inactive to active) and deactivates (goes from active to inactive).
- You can set the priority of these records so they either send immediately (high priority) or follow normal data acquisition intervals (low priority).
Flexible IO Conditions
- Each custom scenario can use up to three IO elements (“sources”) to build an activation condition.
- You define thresholds and how the data is evaluated: “OnEnter,” “OnExit,” “Is,” etc.
- Activation Delay can replace older “averaging” logic—this ensures the condition remains valid for a set time before it triggers.
DOUT Control
- A scenario can switch a device’s DOUT on and off in a timed pattern.
- Infinite Mode: Repeat ON/OFF until the scenario becomes inactive.
- Finite Mode: Repeat ON/OFF for a configured number of cycles, then stop.
DOUT Deactivation
- You can specify an extra IO element to forcibly turn off the active DOUT.
- Useful when you want a driver or operator to silence a buzzer (via, for example, pressing a button linked to a digital input).
Logic Operands & Activation
- When using multiple sources, you can combine them with AND/OR logic.
- For example, “Source 2 AND Source 3” must both be active, or “Source 2 OR Source 3” can trigger a condition.
Basic Operation
Enable the Scenario
- Set the Scenario Priority to a value greater than 0 (1 = low priority, 2 = high priority). Zero disables the scenario.
Define Up to Three Sources
- Source 1 is always evaluated.
- Source 2 and Source 3 can be turned on/off and combined via AND/OR logic with the previous source.
- Each source has:
- IO Element (AVL ID)
- Operand (OnEnter, OnExit, Is, etc.)
- Low/High Threshold
- Activation Delay (seconds)
Scenario Activation
- The scenario becomes active if all selected sources meet their conditions simultaneously (based on the chosen logic AND/OR).
- A record is generated if the scenario transitions from inactive → active, unless the operand is “Is” (which remains constantly active while the condition is true).
DOUT Behavior
- If configured, the device toggles DOUT ON/OFF according to:
- DOUT ON Duration (ms)
- DOUT OFF Duration (ms)
- DOUT Repeat Count (0 for infinite).
DOUT Deactivation
- If a deactivation source is set, that IO can forcibly turn off the DOUT even if the scenario is still active.
- The DOUT will remain off until the scenario becomes inactive (or conditions change).
Scenario Deactivation
- If any source condition fails (e.g., threshold not met), the scenario goes back to inactive and a record is generated indicating this change (unless using “Is,” which ends immediately when condition fails).

Example
Scenario Setup
- Priority: 2 (High, scenario enabled)
- Source 1 (AVL ID = 21, e.g., Speed):
- Operand: OnEnter
- Low: 0, High: 5 (speed range)
- Delay: 3 s
- DOUT Control:
- DOUT = 1
- ON Duration = 500 ms, OFF Duration = 500 ms, Repeat = 0 (infinite)
Activation
- If the vehicle’s speed stays between 0 and 5 km/h for at least 3 seconds, the scenario becomes active.
- The device generates an “active” event record.
- OUT 1 starts toggling: ON for 500 ms, OFF for 500 ms.
Deactivation
- If speed goes above 5 km/h or drops below 0 for even a moment, the scenario becomes inactive.
- A “deactivated” event record is generated, and DOUT stops toggling.
Optional DOUT Deactivation
- If configured, an extra input (e.g., driver-pressed button) could turn DOUT off instantly, even while the scenario remains active.
