This section is a glossary of terms found in the [[FMB120 Manual]].
* '''AC/DC''' – Alternating Current/Direct Current.
* '''AVL''' - Automatic vehicle location - means for automatically determining and transmitting the geographic location of a vehicle.
* '''GNSS''' – Global Navigation Satellite System - a system with global coverage that uses satellites to provide autonomous geo-spatial positioning.
* '''GPS''' – Global Positioning System - a worldwide satellite navigational system formed by 24 satellites orbiting the earth and their corresponding receivers on the earth.
* '''GPRS''' – General Packet Radio Service - a standard for wireless communications which runs at speeds up to 115 kilobits per second.
* '''GSM''' – Global System for Mobile Communications - one of the leading digital cellular systems. GSM uses narrowband TDMA, which allows eight simultaneous calls on the same radio frequency.
* '''I/O''' – Input/Output.
* '''PC''' – Personal Computer.
* '''SMS''' – Short Message Service - the transmission of short text messages to and from a mobile phone, fax machine and/or IP address.
* '''Record''' – AVL data stored in FMB120 memory. AVL data contains GNSS and I/O information;
* '''AVL packet''' - Data packet which is being sent to the server during data transmission.
