− | <big>This is a guide meant for customers looking to optimize their work.</big> | + | <big>This is a guide meant to understand what information helps engineers answer queries more quickly and hasten the process of solving any questions you might have.</big> |
| | | |
− | <big>Read it carefully if you want to learn what troubleshooting information you should consider getting about/from our devices before registering an issue with our technical support team.</big> | + | <big>Query solving can be compared to doing a jigsaw puzzle. The most important thing to complete a jigsaw puzzle is that all of the parts have to be present. Queries work in a similar way, if our technical support engineer receives all the parts of the puzzle – a solution or answer will be provided faster. This way you will save from 2 to 3 days of time when the engineer has to specify the details instead of analyzing it at once</big> |
| | | |
− | <big>Below you will also find a guide on how to get this information quickly and what you should consider.</big> | + | <big>Below you can find a table with information that is needed for a Query and why the information is needed for engineers. In the table there are specifications on how to gather those details from devices.</big> |

| + | |'''Device information''' |
| + | |This information has to be gathered from your platform or your system which monitors devices |
| + | |It will help to understand the scale of the issue and also find the cause more quickly by finding the connection between affected devices. |
| + | |Number and model of affected device: 2 devices of FMB001 |
| + | |- |
| + | |'''Firmware version''' |
| + | |[[FMB getver|SMS command]] |
| | | |
− | If the Repeating is specified as “There is a pattern/Under certain conditions” – write on how to repeat the pattern/conditions.
| + | [[FMB920 Status info|Configurator]] |
| | | |
| + | [[Devices|FOTA WEB]] |
| + | |The firmware version will allow us to analyze if the said issue was not already fixed in a newer firmware version, |
| + | |Firmware: |

− | ''Example'' | + | 03.25.15.Rev.05 |
− | | + | |- |
− | '''Number of devices:''' We have received a new shipment of 1,000 pcs, and 1 of them is behaving strangely. | + | |'''Configuration''' |
| + | |Configuration can be downloaded directly from device through FOTA WEB, FOTA or [[Teltonika Configurator|Configurator]]). |
| + | <br /> |
| + | |The configuration used on the device allows us to analyze if the issue is not caused by improperly configured settings or features. |
| + | |Attach the device configuration to Query. |
| + | |- |
| + | |'''How to repeat''' |
| + | |Monitor the devices on the server and provide information, under which conditions issue occurs. |
| + | |It will help the engineer better understand the conditions and how to repeat it personally, which will lead to a faster solution. |
| + | |Device goes into Deep Sleep, when device wakes up from Accelerometer, event (Movement AVL I/O ID 240) is not sent to server. |
| + | |- |
| + | |'''Log files''' |
| + | |They can be taken via the Configurator [[FMB920 Status info#Maintenance|Maintenance tab]] or via Terminal. |
| + | |The logs allow the engineers to provide you with initial insights into your issue with first response. |
| + | |Attach the taken Log file to Query. |
| + | |- |
| + | |'''Dump files''' |
| + | |You have to make sure to take them from [[FMB920 Status info#Maintenance|Configurator Maintenance tab]] or FOTA WEB after issue happened. '''And take them not more than 2 or 3 hours after the issue otherwise device overwrites those files.''' |
| + | |The dump files allow the engineers to provide you with initial insights into your issue with first response. |

− | ===Provide Advanced and additional information===
| |
− | ''The log/DUMP files allow the engineers to provide you with initial '''insights into your issue with the first response.''' Invest a few minutes of your time to get the log/DUMP files containing the issue to have the solution ASAP. '''Advanced and additional information is consisted of:'''''
| |
− | | |
− | ====DUMP/LOG files====
| |
− | Dump files - Provide files that the device logged automatically. They are useful if the issue happened already and not more then 3 hours passed after.
| |
− | | |
− | Log files - Provide live information when the issue is happening. They are useful when the device is currently having the issue or you can replicate it with log running.
| |
− | | |
− | ====Raw server data====
| |
− | RAW data in Hex is preferred, you should also specify the exact time when the issue in data can be seen (For example 2020.02.24 10:00 AM GMT +0 until 2020.02.24 13:00 PM GMT +0).

| |
− | ''Example''
| |
− | | |
− | Please find the logs and server data attached. We have tried to disable static navigation via "setparam" command to see if the device filters out the positions due to incorrect ignition, we will investigate if it helped.
