1A/500mA. The allowed voltage range for battery: 10…32V DC. To avoid mechanical damage, it is advised to transport the Terminal FM-Eco3 in an impact- proof package. Before connecting any pins of 10 pin plug to the vehicle, ensure that plug is disconnected sectional area of mounting wires is at least 0.75 mm...
• GSM – Global System for Mobile Communications. • SMS – Short Message Service. • AC/DC – Alternating Current/Direct Current. • Record – Data stored in FM-Eco3 memory. Data contains GPS and I/O Information. • LED – Light Emitting Diode. • I/O – Inputs / Outputs.
2. BASIC DESCRIPTION FM-Eco3 is a Terminal with GPS / GSM connectivity, which is able to determine the object’s coordinates and transfer them via the GSM network. This Terminal is perfectly suitable for applications where location acquirement of remote objects is needed. It is important to mention that FM-Eco3 has additional inputs and outputs, which lets controlling and monitoring other remote objects.

3. MOUNTING RECOMMENDATIONS Connecting Wires • Wires should be connected while module is not plugged in. • Wires should be fastened to the other wires or non-moving parts. Try to avoid heat emitting and moving objects near the wires. • The connections should not be seen very clearly. If factory insulation was removed while connecting wires, it should be applied again.
3.1. MODULE INSTALLATION • Module should not be seen or easily reached. • Module should be firmly fixed to the surface or cables. • Module cannot be fixed to heat emitting or moving parts. • SIM card should be inserted in the module while the connector is plugged off (while module has no power).
