==Introduction==
==Introduction==
Motor vehicle theft is one of the world’s biggest concerns and the fastest growing crimes in many countries around the world. This great challenge for car rental agencies, car sharing clubs, businesses, state organizations and private car owners caused properly losses of over 6 billion US dollar globally in 2018. Luckily for them, Teltonika GPS trackers gave a remote secure engine cut-off (SECO) functionality that can help to recover a stolen vehicle and prevent the loss.
'''Secure Engine Cut Off (SECO)''' is a functionality that safely disables a vehicle’s engine based on predefined speed or movement conditions. It is typically activated remotely and used for security, immobilization, or theft prevention purposes.


We glad that you decided to test our “Secure vehicle disabling” solution.
==Solution Description==
SECO feature is available from firmware version '''03.28.02'''.  


Here you will find how to prepare and to test this solution.
Secure Engine Cut Off enhances vehicle security by allowing the engine to be disabled under controlled conditions. It helps prevent theft by stopping unauthorized movement, supports fleet security through remote immobilization when suspicious activity occurs, and limits unauthorized usage by shutting down the engine when vehicles operate outside permitted times or areas.


==Solution description==
==Solution Requirements==
This solution is intended to stop the stolen vehicle regardless of the thief's actions. Best way to do so is to disable fuel pump in order to prevent vehicle to be driven further away. However, disconnecting fuel pump on high speed will definitely cause an accident and innocent people may be harmed.


Therefore we came up with a logic how to force vehicle to stop without causing an accident. Pulsing digital output disables fuel pump in intervals until vehicle slows down to configured speed from which pump is fully disabled.
*The secure vehicle disabling solution is supported by '''any Teltonika FMB series tracker (excluding FMX6 series trackers) that has''' one or more '''digital output''' (DOUT) which in this scenario is used to control fuel pump of the car.
==What you need for a solution?==
*SIM card for data transmition to your server.
*[[Automotive_Relay|Automotive Relay]] to cut off the fuel pump.
*SECO functionality is only available with Teltonika FMB series GPS trackers starting with the firmware version '''03.28.02'''.
*FOTA WEB for remote configuration of the device.

==Installation==
*The SIM card in order to get data to your server.
It is important to position the tracker so it would not be easy to locate.
*The secure engine cut-off (SECO) functionality is only available in Teltonika FMB series GPS trackers starting with the firmware version 03.25.10.Rev.111.
*FOTA WEB to remotely send the configuration to the device.


==Installation==
Additionally, please refer to [[FMB130_First_Start#Mounting_recommendations mounting recommendations|Mounting Recommendations]] for recommended mounting instructions.
It’s important to well hide tracker, so it would not be a simple task for the thieves to find and unplug it. But also, please do not forget to follow [https://wiki.teltonika-gps.com/view/FMB130_First_Start#Mounting_recommendations mounting recommendations] as well. [[File:Wiring scheme.png|alt=|right|frameless|357x357px]]


Although devices have high gain antennas it’s important to mount devices with stickers on top and in metal-free space. The device should be firmly fixed to the surface or cables. Please make sure, that device is not fixed to heat emitting or moving parts.
