OBD Data Debugging

Device does not read listed OBD OEM parameters

 If you have a vehicle that is listed in the OBD OEM Supported Vehicle List but OBD OEM is not read - follow the log capturing guide below.

Capturing OBD logs from FMX00X via OEM Reset

  1. Update the device to the latest firmware available. Preferably 03.28.03.Rev.97 or newer.
  2. Check for the Configuration. On certain vehicles VIN number is not read automatically - Usually it is with EVs. For this matter check OBD Feature
  3. Make sure that the FMX00X is connected properly to the OBDII Socket.
  4. Start vehicle engine.
  5. Send following SMS commands to FMX00X device:
    • If you have set SMS login and password:login pass oemreset
    • If SMS login and password are not set leave two spaces before command: aaoemreset
    • You can use OEM Reset button in Configurator Tool as well.
  6. After sending oemreset wait up to 2 minutes for the device to acquire OEM file. Vehicle should be turned on/engine on and stationary.
  7. During this time, take photographs of instrument cluster where Mileage, Fuel Level and Battery Level (if it is an EV) is visible.
  8. Proceed with log collecting within 1 hour via Configurator Tool or via FOTA WEB

Requesting for OBD OEM Support / General Problems

 If you have a vehicle that is not listed in the OBD OEM Supported Vehicle List or you are facing problems with OBD OEM in General - follow the log capturing guide below.

Capturing OBD logs from FMX00X with Filters

  1. Update the device to the latest firmware available.
  2. Make sure that the FMX00X is connected properly to the OBDII Socket.
  3. Start vehicle engine.
  4. Send following SMS commands to FMX00X device:
    • If you have set SMS login and password:login pass log2sdfilterset 0;2;3;4;1
    • If SMS login and password are not set leave two spaces before command: aalog2sdfilterset 0;2;3;4;1

      If command log2sdfilterset was sent correctly you should receive SMS Response:Enabled Trace Filters:5

  5. After the SMS response message OBD log capturing will be started.
  6. OBD Function will not work, if vehicle is turned off or not moving - meaning that you need to test drive it for around 10 minutes.
  7. During this time, take photographs of instrument cluster where Mileage, Fuel Level and Battery Level (if it is an EV) is visible.
  8. After the test drive, turn off vehicle engine.
  9. Download captured log files via Configurator Tool or via FOTA WEB

  1. These log (dump) files can be read only with special software. Provide these files to your Teltonika Telematics Sales manager or Teltonika Telematics Support team for further investigation.

Basic OBD OEM Configuration

  • Configure Ignition Settings according to your vehicle.
 If the vehicle is equipped with Internal Combustion Engine, it is recommended to keep Ignition Source settings with Power Voltage. Otherwise, if it is an EV/HV, set Ignition Source settings as Accelerometer.
  • Check if OBD Feature is Enabled
 For Internal Combustion Engine & HV OBD (Auto) must be Checked. If it is an EV, use Non-OBD compliant and enter VIN Source Manually.
  • Now it is necessary to enable OBD OEM parameters according to the vehicle list

 Let's say we have a VW Polo 2016. The list tells that Mileage (AVL ID 389), Fuel Level in Liters (AVL ID 390) and Fuel Level in % (AVL ID 48) is supported.
  • Enable the listed parameters

 Enabled Fuel Level in % (AVL ID 48) Parameter.

 Enabled Mileage (AVL ID 389) and Fuel Level in Liters (AVL ID 390) Parameter.
  • After enabling the parameters proceed with installation of FMX00X device into the OBDII port.
 Once the device is installed, turn on the Ignition and send SMS command web_connect. This will force the device to acquire OBD OEM File from FOTA WEB.

Verify the Status on FOTA WEB

  • Open your FOTA WEB account
  • Find device by IMEI
Under Details, OBD section, you should see the VIN Number of your vehicle: Under Tasks, you can verify if the file is delivered to the device or not:
 
 Lastly, check your server for the availability of OBD OEM Data.
