  • Page 23: Operational Basics

    5. Operational Basics 5.1 Operational Principals DB3 Plug&Play module is designed to acquire records and send them to the server. Records contain GNSS data and I/O information. The module uses GNSS receiver to acquire GNSS data and is powered by three data acquire methods: time-based, distance-based and angle-based method.
  • Page 24: Sleep Modes

    DB3 Plug&Play has to be configured to work in Sleep mode; The device must be synchronized time with GNSS satellites; DB3 Plug&Play 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;...

  • Page 26: Virtual Odometer

    5.3 Virtual Odometer The virtual odometer is used to calculate travelled distance in DB3 Plug&Play as a separate I/O element. If Between Records is selected as Distance Mode, then if DB3 Plug&Play detects movement, it starts counting distance using GNSS signal: every second it checks current location and calculates the distance between current and previous point.
