<youtube width="850" height="480">GDGFG6Lh1B0</youtube><br>''*Please note that the '''iot.truphone.com''' APN shown in the video should only be used with Truphone SIM cards - please contact Your network operator for the exact APN details, if You are using different SIM cards.''
−
# Insert '''SIM''' card as shown with '''PIN request disabled''' or read [[FMB9YX Security info|'''Security info''']] how to enter it later in Configurator. Make sure that SIM card '''cut-off corner''' is pointing forward to slot.
 
−
# Connect the battery as shown on device. Position the battery in place where it does not obstruct other components.

==='''STEP 1: Prepare the Device'''===
 +
'''''Result: Device has a SIM card installed and internal battery connected'''''
  
 +
All our devices use SIM cards for telecommunication, thus you will not be able to get any data and/or communicate with the device remotely without the SIM card. In this chapter, you will find a guide on how to insert a SIM card and connect the internal battery.
  
 +
''Note:'' Different Teltonika devices use different SIM card types: mini-SIM, micro-SIM, nano-SIM, and [[Requirements for eSIM|'''eSIM''']] (which is soldered during device manufacturing process).

Basic Testing

5 easy steps to prepare any Teltonika Telematics device banner.png

In this chapter, we will go through 5 easy testing steps which will help you get acquainted with Teltonika Telematics devices. We will cover everything you need to start using the device - from inserting a SIM card, powering the device, and ending with GPS track information directly from your vehicle to the server.

The video below shows the preparation of FMC880 device - please note that the initial steps are universal and can be applied to majority of our devices.


*Please note that the iot.truphone.com APN shown in the video should only be used with Truphone SIM cards - please contact Your network operator for the exact APN details, if You are using different SIM cards.

STEP 1: Prepare the Device

Result: Device has a SIM card installed and internal battery connected

All our devices use SIM cards for telecommunication, thus you will not be able to get any data and/or communicate with the device remotely without the SIM card. In this chapter, you will find a guide on how to insert a SIM card and connect the internal battery.

Note: Different Teltonika devices use different SIM card types: mini-SIM, micro-SIM, nano-SIM, and eSIM (which is soldered during device manufacturing process).


How to insert SIM card and connect the battery?

  1. Gently remove device cover using plastic pry tool from both sides as it is showed in a 1st picture.
  2. After opening device cover, you will see SIM card and battery connection slots.
  3. Insert SIM card as shown with PIN request disabled or read Security info (Universal Guide) how to enter it later in Configurator. Make sure that SIM card cut-off corner is pointing forward to slot.
  4. Connect the battery as shown on device. Position the battery in place where it does not obstruct other components.
  5. Attach device cover back. Device is ready to be connected.


You can find how exactly the SIM card has to be inserted (and battery connected, if the device comes with one) by seeing the pictures below:


Basic trackers

Fast & Easy trackers

Advanced trackers

OBD trackers

CAN trackers

Professional trackers

Autonomous trackers

E-Mobility trackers


Alert.png
 SIM card insertion/removal must be performed when device is powered off – external voltage and internal battery disconnected. Otherwise SIM card might be damaged or device will not detect it.


STEP 2: Connect the device to PC

Result: Device is connected to the PC and powered with a power supply, allowing the user to configure it.

One way to control your device is by connecting it to a PC. During this step, we will introduce you to how to establish the connection.

How to install USB drivers (Windows)?

Download COM port drivers from Teltonika here and install them.

PC Connection (Windows)

Power-up device with DC voltage (10 – 30 V)* power supply using supplied power cable**. LED’s should start blinking, see “LED behaviour description”.

Connect device to computer*** using USB cable or Bluetooth® connection.


* FMB900, FMB910, FMB920, MTB100, FMB202, FMB204 devices support (6 - 30 V) DC power supply.

** FMP100, FMB002, FMB020, FMB003 can be powered up and configured via USB without any need for an external power supply.

*** If you would like to check how to connect your particular device to PC, please see device Teltonika WIKI documentation. Click on your device -> First Start -> PC Connection (Windows)

STEP 3: Configure the Device

Result: Device is configured to generate and send records to the specified server.

After powering up your device, it should be configured to meet your needs. Here you will find steps on how to prepare your device for a first start.


Configuration

At first, the device will have default factory settings set. These settings should be changed according to the user's needs.
Main configuration can be performed via Teltonika Configurator software. Get the latest Configurator version from here. Configurator operates on Microsoft Windows OS and uses prerequisite latest MS .NET Framework.

The configuration process begins by pressing on the connected device:

Faceless configurator select.png

After connection to Configurator Status window will be displayed.

In the status window, you will be able to see crucial information that influences device operation such as GNSS and GSM statuses.

GNSS Info tab contains GNSS Status, Satellites, and Location information.

  • GNSS Status describes whether the module is ON, received/sent GNSS packets count, FIX status and FIX time
  • Satellites provide you information about visible and currently in-use satellites
  • Location provides you the coordinates, speed, altitude, and angle of your current location.

GSM Info tab contains GSM Status, Records, GPRS Traffic, SMS Count, and Sockets information

  • GSM Status describes modem status, SIM state, GPRS status, signal level, and operator code
  • Records provide you information about sent records count and the date of the last record sent/server response
  • GPRS Traffic contains information about data usage
  • SMS Count shows you sent/received SMS count
  • Sockets provide status about AVL Data server communication
GNSS/GSM Status
Illustration Description of most important parameters
GNSS Info.png Module status - here you will be able to see whether the module is ON or in Sleep mode.
Fix Status - Fix/No Fix. For a GNSS fix, at least 4 visible satellites are needed, thus for best performance, the device should be facing an open sky.
GSM Info.png Signal Level - make sure that the signal is available in order to send the data to the server.
Type - AVL Data sending status.
Socket - Closed or Server domain and port which is used when sending AVL Data via TCP/UDP.

Various Status window tabs display information about GNSS, GSM, I/O, Maintenance and etc. configuration can be loaded and saved to the device. After changing the configuration, make sure that modifications are saved by clicking "Save to device" button. To restore default configuration, click "Reset configuration" button.

Note: make sure that "Records Saving/Sending Without TS" in System Tab is configured as "Always" for testing purposes.

This will allow the device to send the data even if there is no GNSS fix (which is hardly obtained inside the buildings) and/or time synchronization.

The most important configurator section is GPRS – where all your server and GPRS settings can be configured and Data Acquisition – where data acquiring parameters can be configured.

GPRS Settings
Illustration Parameter ID Description
2001 Access Point Name is a gateway between mobile operator and public internet.

It can be obtained from your SIM card provider.

When correct APN settings will be entered device will connect to the internet.

Note: we do have an auto APN functionality, which is described here

2003 APN password (if there are no APN password, empty field should be left)
2002 APN username (if there are no APN username, empty field should be left)
2004 Domain/IP of destination server
2005 Port of destination server
2006 Data sending to destination server protocol (0 – TCP, 1 – UDP)
Picture 4: SMS communication between user and device

Note: If you do not have GPS tracking service yet, you can use Teltonika TCP/UDP listener to receive data from the device and Teltonika parser to parse received information. Software can be downloaded from here. Archive password: 1234


If you do not want to configure your device via configurator, you can quickly set up your device GPRS settings by sending this SMS command to it: 

"  setparam 2001:APN;2002:APN_username;2003:APN_password;2004:Domain;2005:Port;2006:0"

Note: Before SMS text, two space symbols should be inserted.

After successful GPRS/SERVER settings configuration, device will synchronize time and update records to the configured server according to the Data Acquisition time intervals. The default configuration has optimal parameters present to ensure the best performance of track quality and data usage. However, for testing, we do recommend these Data Acquisition settings:

Testing Data Acquisition settings
Illustration Parameter ID Description
Picture 5: Recommended Data Acquisition values for testing purposes
 10000 Min period indicates time interval in seconds in order to acquire new record.
10004 Min Saved Records defines the minimum number of records in one data packet that can be sent to the server.
10005 Send Period indicates time interval in seconds after which the device checks whether it has generated enough records based on theMin Saved Records parameter. If enough records are generated, the device will send them to the server. If the interval is set to 0 seconds, the device will not send any records to the server.


Note: If the link with the server is already open, records are sent to the server immediately after they are generated.

The device will generate periodic records and send them to the server based on Data Acquisition settings.

Using these settings, the device will make a periodic record every 30 seconds and will send it every 30 seconds

After testing, Data Acquisition settings should be configured according to your needs.

The device will switch operating mode between On Stop and Moving based on configured corresponding movement source status.

More details about devices configuration using Configurator and more information about your particular device can be found Teltonika WIKI documentation. Click on your device -> Configuration.

STEP 4: Mount the Device

Result: Device is mounted in an optimal location, allowing it to have good GNSS and GSM connectivity.

Different types of devices have specific mounting instructions: some of them are simple plug-and-play, while other hard-wired devices require professional installation. Please find your specific device mounting instructions Teltonika WIKI documentation. Click on your device -> First Start -> Mounting recommendations and precautions.


Installation instructions
