  • Page 14: Power

    Power The MT 3060 requires 9 to 16 VDC with a minimum 2 amps of input power. Pin 16 on the 16-Pin I/O connector is the positive power input, and pins 4 and 5 are ground. This device contains a battery. NOTE: This battery is not to be removed or replaced by the user.
  • Page 15: Backup Battery

    Backup Battery The MT 3060 comes with a backup battery installed. The battery is a 230 mAh rechargeable Lithium-ion. The primary function of the backup battery in the MT 3060 is to provide enough power to allow notification to a user when there is a loss of power to the device. Power loss can indicate device tampering or battery disconnection or removal.

  • Page 18: New Event Reporting

    New Event Reporting For general event reporting information and for detailed information about these events, refer to the appropriate MT 3060 AT Command Reference. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) The VIN is used as a unique identifier which is sent at first power-up with heartbeat messages and with events.
  • Page 19 Vehicle Battery Voltage (Low Battery Warning) The vehicle battery voltage alert is triggered when the vehicle’s battery is reported to be below a threshold (for example, 10.8 V) for a user-defined period of time in seconds (for example, 300 seconds). Example: The following AT Command example sets the low battery threshold to 10.8 volts.
  • Page 20 Low Fuel Alert The low fuel alert triggers when the vehicle’s fuel level falls below a defined threshold in percent (for example, 12%) for a defined period of time in seconds (e.g., 60 seconds). Example: The following AT Command example sets the low fuel alert threshold to 12% for 1 minute (60 seconds) with a clearance time of 30 seconds.
  • Page 21 Motion Detection You can configure motion alerts for vehicles to communicate that a vehicle is being towed. Motion detection, based on measuring movement through the accelerometer, occurs when the vehicle ignition is off and the vehicle is stationary. A motion alert is triggered when motion is detected for a defined period of time. OBDII Basic Event Data Five additional data items can be included with event messages: Firmware version ($PKG)
  • Page 22 Up / Down (Vertical Acceleration) Up and down accelerometer events can be triggered when the threshold is exceeded as determined by the accelerometer in milli-Gs (for example, 0.75) for a defined period of time in seconds (for example, 30 seconds). The command may also be configured to clear the event if it persists beyond a maximum duration.
