When you see a green table like in
Figure 9
, it means that the firmware is flashed to
FM1000 successfully. You may now close the update window and start using your FM1000
device.

OPERATIONAL BASICS
5.1
Operational principals
FM1000 module is designed to acquire records and send them to the server. Records
contain GNSS data and I/O information. Module uses GNSS receiver to acquire GNSS data and is
powered with three data acquire methods: time-based, distance-based and angle-based method.
Note, that if FM1000 loses connection to GNSS satellites, it continues to make records, however
coordinate in these records remains the same (last known coordinate).
Method’s details are
described in section 5.11. All data is stored in flash memory and later can be sent via GPRS.
GPRS and SMS settings are described in later sections. FM1000 communicates with server
using special data protocol. Data protocol is described in “
FMXXXX Protocols
” document.
FM1000 can be managed by SMS commands. SMS Command list is described in SMS
COMMAND LIST section. Module configuration can be performed over TCP or via SMS.
Configuration parameters and modes are described in “
FMXXXX Protocols
” document.

Sleep modes
5.2.1
Sleep mode
FM1000 is able to go to Sleep mode after configurable Sleep timeout. This timeout
(defined period) starts counting when device is in STOP mode. After timeout is reached and all
conditions for sleep mode are met, device goes to sleep mode. While in sleep mode, FM1000
turns GNSS module off and it is not making new periodic records. Only event records is being
recorded with last known coordinate and sent to AVL server. As a result power usage decreases
allowing saving vehicle battery.
FM1000 can enter sleep mode if
ALL
of these conditions are met:
FM1000 has to be configured to work in Sleep mode;
Device must be synchronized time with GNSS satellites;
FM1000 has to be in
„X on Stop Mode“ (Configured by Mode switch
parameter);
Ignition (Configured to be detected by Power Voltage, Ignition or
Accelerometer) is off;
Sleep timeout is reached.
FM1000 exits sleep mode when if
ONE
of following conditions are true:
FM1000
switches to “X on Moving Mode”
;
Ignition (Configured to be detected by Power Voltage, Ignition or Accelerometer) is
turned on.
