Teltonika Telematics Teltonika FMB003 OBD Vehicle Tracker with GNSS/GSM/BLE 4.0

Key Benefits

• OBDII reading: Standard data from the vehicle electronics (ECU), including OEM odometer and fuel level
• Crash detection: via integrated accelerometer data
• Bluetooth 4.0 + LE: connection to compatible external sensors and devices
• Wireless configuration: firmware updates and settings via Bluetooth
• Power saving modes: GPS sleep mode, online deep sleep mode, deep sleep mode and ultra deep sleep mode to optimise power consumption

Reading OBD Data and OEM Parameters

The device reads OEM parameters (PIDs) via the OBDII port, enabling real-time acquisition of odometer and fuel level from the vehicle. The OEM data reading supports up to 32 in-vehicle parameters, including fuel level and odometer. The OBD interface supports HS CAN, MS CAN, SW CAN and K-Line buses.

The tracker is compatible with multiple OBD protocols, including ISO 9141-2, ISO 14230-4 KWP with 5-baud and fast initialisation, ISO 15765-4 CAN with 11- and 29-bit identifiers at 250 and 500 kBaud, ISO 14229 (UDS) and J2819 (VW TP2.0). This compatibility enables direct connection to the vehicle's OBDII socket without additional installation.

GNSS and Cellular Connectivity

The 33-channel GNSS module supports GPS, GLONASS, GALILEO, BEIDOU, SBAS, QZSS, DGPS and AGPS with a reception sensitivity of -165 dBm and a position accuracy of less than 2,5 CEP. Start-up times are less than 1 second for hot start, 25 seconds for warm start and 35 seconds for cold start. Time synchronisation is performed via GPS, NITZ or NTP.

The cellular connectivity operates in quad-band GSM/GPRS over the 850/900/1800/1900 MHz frequency bands with GPRS Multi-Slot Class 12 data transmission of up to 240 kbps. The data support includes SMS in text and data mode. The GNSS and GSM antennas are high-gain internal units, so no external antennas are required.

Scenarios and Detection

The tracker features an accelerometer that enables various operating modes: eco-driving, overspeeding detection, jamming detection, GNSS fuel counter, excessive idling detection, trip detection, towing detection and crash detection. In addition, it supports automatic geofencing functions, manual geofencing and trip logging.

Vehicle ignition detection is performed via the accelerometer, the external power supply or the engine RPM. Fuel monitoring is carried out via OBDII and OEM fuel level data.

Configuration and Management

Configuration and firmware updates can be performed via FOTA Web, FOTA, Teltonika Configurator (via USB and Bluetooth) as well as the FMBT mobile app. SMS commands enable configuration, event management and troubleshooting, as do GPRS commands. The device supports firmware updates and configuration via Bluetooth, which expands the options for remote management.

Power Supply and Physical Characteristics

The tracker operates with an input voltage of 12 to 30 V DC with overvoltage protection and features a 3,7-V-45-mAh battery as backup. The dimensions are 52,6 x 29,1 x 26 mm, with direct connection to the vehicle's OBDII socket. The USB interface is 2.0 Micro-USB and uses a Nano-SIM card. The device has 2 status LEDs and an IP41 ingress protection rating.

The operating temperature without battery is between -40 °C and +85 °C, and the operating humidity is 5 % to 95 % non-condensing. Compatible Bluetooth peripherals include temperature and humidity sensors, headsets, Inateck barcode scanners as well as universal support for BLE sensors.
