Virtual odometer

Virtual odometer is used to calculate traveled distance in FM1000 as a separate I/O
element. If Between Records is selected as Distance Mode, then if FM1000 detects movement, it
starts counting distance using GNSS signal: every second it checks current location and calculates
distance between current and previous point. It keeps adding these intervals until it is time to
make a record, then FM1000 records its location and adds odometer value, which is equal to the
sum of all distances, measured every second. When record is made, odometer resets to zero and
distance calculation starts all over again.
Continuous (from GPS) Distance Mode works same as Between Records, except odometer
is not reset to zero after each record. Odometer is only reset after current trip ends.
Continuous (from OBD) mode works similar to Continuous (from GPS), however traveled
distance data is taken from OBD instead of GNSS signal.

Scenarios

Seven scenarios are available on FM1000 device:
Green Driving, Over Speeding, Excessive Idling detection, Jamming detection, Alarm, Crash
detection, Unplug detection.
Green Driving Scenario. Helps to prevent and inspect driver about harsh driving. Scenario
continuously monitors: accelerating force, braking force and cornering angles.
To save GPRS traffic Green Driving event will be generated (included into records) only
when FM1000 measured values are higher than those set in configuration, without additional I/O
settings.
To prevent generating false events, harsh acceleration and harsh braking is monitored only
when following conditions are fulfilled:
• Ignition (Configured to be detected by Power Voltage, Ignition or Accelerometer) is
turned on.
• Vehicle speed is equal or higher than 10km/h.
Harsh cornering is monitored only when following conditions are fulfilled:
• Ignition (Configured to be detected by Power Voltage, Ignition or Accelerometer) is
turned on.
• Vehicle speed is equal or higher than 30km/h.
Note: Green Driving Scenario is a factor on various cars and various drivers
testing phase and can be subject to changes. Teltonika is constantly working
on improvement of the functionality of the devices, and strongly recommends
using the latest version of the firmware.
Over Speeding Scenario. Helps to prevent from exceeding fixed speed and inspects driver
if needed. Over Speeding event is generated only when vehicle speed exceeds configured Max
allowed speed
