    ESN. Obviously the first two items are answered by “CalAmp LMU”. The last one is a little misleading. The ESN on the LMU is the CalAmp serial number. The one the operator is interested in is the MSN-D (which they call the decimal ESN). DO NOT give them the CalAmp ESN (i.e. the top one on the label).

    4. Once the vehicle detection has completed the vehicle ignition can then be turned off. 5.3 Installation Verification In many cases it is desirable to verify that an installed LMU-3000™ is working properly. That is, installers should verify that the GPS and communications functions of the LMU-3000™ are working properly before departing the installation site.

    If any of the responses return Not-Acquired or Not-Registered (and the APN is correct), the wireless network operator should be contacted for further troubleshooting. Please note that it may take several seconds (or longer) for the LMU-3000™ to communicate with the modem and acquire the wireless network.

    5.3.3 Inbound Verification The last item to verify is that the LMU-3000™ is sending data to the correct server. In general, this is a two- step process that will need the aid of an observer on the back end. That is, a technician will have to be logged in so they can monitor data coming into the backend mapping/vehicle management application.
