Main Page > Advanced Trackers > FMB230 > FMB230 Product Change Notifications

Product change notifications (PCN) is the way of informing customers of upcoming changes related to Teltonika products. This includes outward appearance adjustments, hardware improvements, firmware changes, changes to package contents, etc. This page stores information regarding changes to the FMB230 tracking device. Below you will find a list of both upcoming and already implemented changes sorted from newest to oldest (top to bottom).
