Perform testing
The test should be performed with vehicle in an open area where GNSS signal is available. When performing
the initial test, follow the steps listed below:
Make sure all
electrical
connections
including grounding are properly done.
Turn the device on and check its behaviors whether there is sufficient GNSS and GSM reception using
Workbench software. You may also configure 4 alarms to show the GNSS and GSM operation via LED
indicators. See examples below.
Example
PFAL,Cnf.Set,AL1=GSM.GPRS.eConnected:IO12.Set=high
PFAL,Cnf.Set,AL2=GSM.GPRS.eDisconnected:IO12.Set=low
PFAL,Cnf.Set,AL3=GPS.Nav.eFix=valid:IO13.Set=high
PFAL,Cnf.Set,AL4=GPS.Nav.eFix=invalid:IO13.Set=low
If you see that there is sufficient GNSS and GSM reception (note that, acquiring of initial GNSS fix may take
more than 2 minutes), turn on your vehicle and check again if any of
vehicle's electronics
is causing
interferences to the device. If the device could not obtain a fix within 5-20 minutes, then change the
mounting location of the device and restart the test.
If no interferences are detected and the device gets a fix, then perform the same test during driving, to
check if the GNSS fix stays stable and the device is able to get a valid fix even when the GNSS fix is lost.
When the mounting location has been determined and the test has been successfully completed, turn off
your device and your vehicle and perform the complete installation by keeping in mind the instructions
given in chapter 1.1
.
After the device has been mounted, refer to the
Getting Started Guide
to perform an end-to-end system
test.
