- 7 -On-Board Diagnostics OverviewThe Novatel Wireless M2M MT 3060 connects to a vehicle's On-Board Diagnostics (OBDII)port and monitors the OBDII system using communication protocols. An On-Board Diagnostics(OBD) system controls engine functions and serves as the diagnostic control network of thevehicle. All cars built and sold in the United States since 1996 require the newer OBDII system.You can configure the MT 3060 to provide notification messages based on events triggeredby:lAccelerometer changelCheck engine light (MIL alert)lEngine RPMlGPS informationlIdle timelLow fuellTrip Odometer (trip distance)lVehicle battery voltage (low battery warning)lVehicle Identification Number (VIN)lVehicle speedlOther events monitored by the OBDII systemSome vehicles are not compatible with the MT 3060. If a vehicle is not compatiblewith the required MT 3060 parameters, then functionality may be limited,problematic, or unavailable.The 1979 Society of Automobile Engineers (SAE) standard defines the method for requestingdiagnostics data and provides a list of standard parameters from the engine control unit.Since the vehicle manufacturer is responsible for complying with the SAE standard, NovatelWireless M2M cannot guarantee that the MT 3060 will perform with every vehicle.

- 11 -lMotion alert (towing alert)lDriver behavior reportinglRapid accelerationlHarsh brakinglConfigurable thresholdslRange settingslMode (Normal, Sleep, Wakeup)lWakeup pause (20 to 2560 msec)lSample Rate (0-25 per second)lFilter Coefficient and Filter BandwidthlDevice Orientation SetupGSM RadioThe MT 3060 (GSM2398) contains a quad-band (850/900/1800/1900 MHz) GSM radio.lClass 4 (2W@850/900 MHz)lClass 1 (1W@1800/1900 MHz)CDMA RadioThe MT 3060 (RTT2221-00) contains a dual-band (800/1900 MHz) CDMA radio.lBC0-800 MHz – US CelllBC1-1900 MHz – US PCSNew Event ReportingThe MT 3060 has additional event reporting not supported by other Novatel Wireless M2Mproducts. For general event reporting information and for detailed information about thesenew events, refer to the MT 3060 AT Command Document (GSM2398AT001).Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)The VIN is used as a unique identifier which is sent at first power-up with heartbeat messagesand with events.Vehicle manufacturers are responsible for defining the list of data returned,therefore not all vehicles support returning the Vehicle Identification Number.

- 12 -Excessive Engine Speed (RPM)Excessive engine speed alerts are triggered when the engine speed (in RPM) exceeds adefined RPM level (in ¼ RPM increments) for a defined period of time in seconds (e.g., 30seconds).The MT 3060 has three definable thresholds.Unnecessary wear and tear on the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) may occur if constant orfrequent excessive engine speed is reported. One of the following situations may causeexcessive engine speed:lObstructions, such as ice or mud, that may cause wheel slippage if the obstruction is notremovedlRevving the RPM while in neutrallSpeeding or reckless driving that causes excessive RPM engine speedThe following AT command example sets the excessive engine speed threshold at 1 to 4000RPM. Then, if exceeded for 3 seconds, it triggers the input event. This event will clear onceengine RPM is below 4000 for 30 seconds.AT$OBDEES=1,4000,3,30Vehicle SpeedA vehicle speed alert is triggered if the device is configured for vehicle speed alerts and thevehicle moves faster than one of the three configurable thresholds (e.g., 70 MPH).The following AT Command example sets the vehicle speed threshold at 1 to 112 KPH(~70MPH). When the threshold is exceeded for 10 seconds, an input event is triggered. Thisevent will clear when the vehicle speed is reduced to 104KPH (~65MPH).AT$OBDSPD=1,112,10,104Vehicle Battery Voltage (Low Battery Warning)The vehicle battery voltage alert is triggered when the vehicle’s battery is reported to bebelow a threshold (e.g., 10.8 V) for a user-defined period of time in seconds (e.g., 300seconds).The following AT Command example sets the low battery threshold to 10.8 volts. When thevoltage remains below this threshold for 300 seconds (5 minutes), it triggers an input event.Restoring voltage above the threshold for 300 seconds (5 minutes) will clear this event.AT$OBDLBL=10800,300,300

- 13 -Check Engine Light (MIL Alert)When the vehicle's “Check Engine” light illuminates, this indicates that a vehicle issuerequires attention for diagnosis and/or repair. This is also known as a Malfunction IndicatorLight (MIL). A user can configure a device to detect a MIL issue via the OBDII protocol, and tosend an alert when the device detects such an issue.Trip Odometer ReportingTrip odometer reporting provides the odometer miles accumulated from ignition-on toignition-off, which is considered a “trip”.Ignition events are not yet detected on hybrid or electric vehicles.Idle Time ReportingAn idle time event is triggered when the vehicle’s engine is running without the vehiclemoving (i.e., velocity less than 3 KPH) for a defined period of time in seconds (e.g., 300seconds).The alert is cleared when the vehicle speed exceeds another speed and time threshold.Both the violation and clearing of the alert are reported if configured.The following AT Command example sets the idle time speed threshold to 3 KPH for 5minutes (300 seconds) with a clearance time of 30 seconds. If the speed remains below thisthreshold for 300 seconds (5 minutes), it triggers the input event. Restoring speed above thisthreshold for 30 seconds will clear this event.AT$OBDIDL=3,300,30Low Fuel AlertThe low fuel alert triggers when the vehicle’s fuel level falls below a defined threshold inpercent (e.g., 12%) for a defined period of time in seconds (e.g., 60 seconds).The following AT Command example sets the low fuel alert threshold to 12% for 1 minute (60seconds) with a clearance time of 30 seconds. If the fuel level remains below this threshold for60 seconds, it triggers the input event. Restoring the fuel level above this threshold for 30seconds will clear this event.AT$OBDLFL=12,60,30

- 14 -Driver Behavior AccelerationRapid acceleration events can be triggered when one of four available thresholds areexceeded as determined by the accelerometer in milli-Gs (e.g., 0.75) for a defined period oftime in seconds (e.g., 30 seconds). The event will clear if the acceleration falls below thethreshold for a defined period of time. The command may also be configured to clear theevent if it persists beyond a maximum duration.The following AT Command example sets the rapid acceleration threshold #1 to .2G. If thisthreshold is exceeded for 1 second, then an input event is triggered. Keeping the accelerationof the vehicle below this threshold for 30 seconds will clear this event. There is no maximumduration set in this example.AT$DVBACL=1,200,1,30,0Driver Behavior Deceleration (Harsh Braking)Rapid deceleration events can be triggered when one of four available decelerationthresholds are exceeded as determined by the accelerometer in milli-Gs (e.g., 1.0) for adefined period of time in seconds (30 seconds). The command may also be configured toclear the event if it persists beyond a maximum duration.The following AT Command example sets the rapid deceleration threshold #1 to .5Gs. If thisthreshold is exceeded for 1 second, then an input event is triggered. Keeping the decelerationbelow this threshold for 30 seconds will clear this event. The event will also clear if thethreshold is exceeded for a duration of 10 seconds.AT$DVBDCL=1,500,1,3,10Motion DetectionMotion alerts for vehicles can be configured to communicate that a vehicle is being towed.Motion detection, based on measuring movement via the accelerometer, occurs when thevehicle ignition is off and the vehicle is stationary.A motion alert is triggered when motion defined in milli-Gs is detected for a defined period oftime.OBDII Basic Event DataFive additional data items can be included with event messages:lVINlFirmware version ($PKG)lOBD Protocol (i.e., J1850 PWM)lCellular signal strength (RSSI)lOBD speed

- 15 -Right/Left Turn (Lateral Acceleration)Harsh turn events can be triggered when one of two available thresholds are exceeded asdetermined by the accelerometer in milli-Gs (e.g., 0.75) for a defined period of time inseconds (e.g., 30 seconds). The command may also be configured to clear the event if itpersists beyond a maximum duration.The following AT command example sets the lateral acceleration accelerometer threshold 1 to.25 Gs. If this threshold is exceeded for 2 seconds, an input event is triggered. This event willclear in 15 seconds when the acceleration is below this threshold. The event will also clear ifthe threshold is exceeded for a duration of 10 seconds.AT$DVBLAL=1,250,2,15,10Up / Down (Vertical Acceleration)Up and down accelerometer events can be triggered when the threshold is exceeded asdetermined by the accelerometer in milli-Gs (e.g., 0.75) for a defined period of time inseconds (e.g., 30 seconds). The command may also be configured to clear the event if itpersists beyond a maximum duration.The following AT command example sets the vertical acceleration accelerometer threshold 1to 1.2Gs. If this threshold is exceeded for 1 second, an input event is triggered. This event willclear in 30 seconds when the acceleration is below this threshold. The event will also clear ifthe threshold is exceeded for a duration of 10 seconds.AT$DVBVAL=1,1200,1,30,10AT Commands Over SMSA user can send AT commands to the MT 3060 via SMS. Please refer to Novatel WirelessM2M Application Note ENF0000AN012 - AT Commands Over SMS for details.Store/Transmit Event DataThe user can configure the MT 3060 to store event-generated data in its internal memory tobe sent over the air to a remote server. This feature can be enabled or disabled using theAT$MSGLOGEN command.“Total Number of Unread Messages” is decremented if an unread message is read via theAT$MSGLOGRD command.

- 16 -Example: Assume there are 50 unread messages in the message queue and the total numberof messages in the message queue is 100. This means that the first 50 messages have beenread while the last 50 messages have not been read. If a user sends AT$GPSLOGRD=0,1,51then the total number of unread messages drops down to 49 after successful transmission ofthat message. However, if a user sends AT$GPSLOGRD=0,1,99 then the total number ofunread messages still remains at 50—that message is transmitted to the remote server.A user can also read a message stored in the memory by inputting the appropriate startingindex number.Synchronize RTC Time With GPS TimeThe Real Time Clock ("RTC") is synchronized with GPS time automatically every time thedevice is powered up and first acquires valid GPS data. Additionally, the RTC time is synchedwith GPS time every time the GPS time rolls over from 23:59:59 to 00:00:01.Reporting FrequencyThe minimum reporting frequency of the device is as follows:lPeriodic reporting is limited to a maximum of 1 per 6 seconds.lThe general reporting interval is 1 message every 2 seconds.

The antennasare situated in the top housing and at the rear of the device.Figure 3-3 MT 3060 With Cover RemovedMT 3060 Antennas1 Bluetooth Antenna (Not currently supported)2 GPS Antenna3 Cellular Antenna

- 20 -Inserting The SIMThe SIM card is not provided with the MT 3060 device. The SIM must be obtainedfrom the GSM/GPRS service provider and must be provisioned by the operatorfor data. Always take care to protect the SIM. Without the SIM installed, the MT3060 modem is not able to communicate with the network.Insert the SIM using the following steps:1. After you have removed the device cover locate the SIM holder within the device. TheSIM is inserted through the slot in the Cellular Antenna.2. Insert the SIM into the SIM holder of the MT 3060.3. Replace the cover (as described below).Figure 3-4 Antennas with SIM slot.

- 21 -Closing The DeviceReplace the MT 3060 cover using the following steps:1. Place the MT 3060 cover onto the base of the device as shown in the following figure.2. Apply gentle downward pressure to the back of the cover first, and carefully slide thecover into place.3. Apply gentle down and forward pressure to the front of the cover until it snaps shut.Figure 3-5 MT 3060 Cover ReplacementActivating The DeviceVerizon Activation:To activate with Verizon, the user must contact Verizon and provide the MEID of the device tothe provider. Once Verizon has acknowledged that the device is ready to activate, the userwill then be required to send an activation string to the network.Send the activation string: AT+CDV*22899. This will initiate a call with the network. Asuccessful call will last approximately 40 seconds. If the call is terminated within 10-15seconds, the call was not successful. Multiple attempts might be required. If the call is notsuccessful after a few attempts, please check the MEID of the device and compare it with theMEID provided to the provider.To verify that the activation has successfully completed, attempt a voice call AT+CDVxxxxxx.If the call is successful, then the over-the-air provisioning was successful.As part of the activation process, the network will download a new PRL. The device will resetafter the PRL is successfully reset to allow the new PRL to take effect.

- 22 -Sprint Activation:To activate with Sprint, the user must contact Sprint and provide the MEID of the device.After the MEID is provided to Sprint, the user will need to power on the device wheninstructed by the carrier. The device will automatically activate when it attaches to thenetwork. For the first attempt the user should see a series of unsolicited reports. If the devicegets to +HFA: 6, the device has successfully activated. This process can take up to 60 secondsto complete. AT+HFA? can be used to query the activation state. A response of 1 means thedevice is successfully activated. A response of 0 means that it has not.An unsuccessful activation attempt may take up to 5 minutes, because of the number ofretries specified by the carrier.As part of the activation process, the network will download a new PRL. The device will resetafter the PRL is successfully reset to allow the new PRL to take effect.Device InstallationMake sure the vehicle is parked on level ground prior to installing the MT 3060.Instructions provided in this section describe the hardware installation of the MT 3060device. To install the MT 3060 in a vehicle, follow these steps:1. Locate the OBDII socket. The location will vary between different vehicle manufacturers,models, and production years.2. Carefully insert the MT 3060 into the OBDII socket.3. After the device is installed, the GPS lock and the cellular connection LEDs will validatethat the device is working properly.The MT 3060 is NOT a waterproof or sealed device. Keep the device away fromwater or any other liquids.

- 23 -Figure 3-6 Typical OBDII Socket LocationThe device starts the accelerometer auto-calibration process immediately afterthe device is installed and the vehicle's ignition is turned on.Accelerometer CalibrationThe accelerometer undergoes an automatic calibration sequence on the first drive after any ofthe following events:lDevice installationlSoftware upgradelVehicle battery replacement (or recharge if battery was fully discharged)lDevice auxiliary processor resetFailure to follow the process below could cause an undesired behavior of themotion feature. Failure to drive straight on level ground during the automaticcalibration may reduce the accuracy of the accelerometer and have an adverseimpact on events triggered by accelerometer readings.

- 24 -1. Make sure the vehicle is parked on level ground prior to installing the MT 3060.2. Drive the vehicle in a straight path on level ground during the automatic calibration. Aninclined surface will put part of the gravity vector into the XY plane, which will affect theacceleration thresholds. (A 5.7 degree angle will place 10% of the gravity vector into theXY plane.)When the vehicle passes 32 KPH, the auxiliary processor assumes that the vehicleis moving in a straight line and determines the forward axis.

- 26 -The following accessories are available for the MT 3060:Part Name Part NumberMetal Lever ASA-3000-0001Backup Battery TBDBackup BatteryThe primary function of the backup battery in the MT 3060 is to allow a user to be notifiedwhen the device is removed from the vehicle.Input Event 63 can be used to trigger an output event that can be configured in the samemanner as the other output events. If the modem is off (to save power), this event will beturned on. If GPS data is configured in the output event and the data is not available, the lastknown position can be configured to be used in the output message.AT$OBDBBT is used to configure the time (in seconds) that the device will stay poweredafter removal from the vehicle. The range is 30-6000 with the default being 600. In addition,to prevent damage to the battery, the device will turn itself off when the battery reaches thelevel determined to be the lowest “safe” value.If the configured output message has not been sent when the timer or battery level dictatesthat the device should shut down (and is configured to do so), it will be saved and sent thenext time the device registers on the network.Metal LeverThe Metal Lever to open the device. For more information on opening the device, see the SIMAccess section in this User Guide.Figure 4-1 Metal LeverAs an alternative a Flat Head Screwdriver can be used to open the device, however additionalcare must be used if using this method.
