1 Introduction
Thank you for purchasing an Inventure product. Your new FMS Gateway G2™interface is a
carefully engineered, high quality durable product with intelligent features and robust styling.
It is designed to give you the quality and convenience you expect from an automotive
measuring instrument.
To familiarize yourself with all the features of your unit please read the following instructions
carefully. Retain this guide for future reference.
2 The FMS Gateway G2™ interface
The interface connects to vehicle electronic communication channels, acquires and transfers
real vehicle sensor data on its output. The output format can be standard FMS CAN, and/or
RS232. The output data can be transferred via hardwire (FMS Gateway output cable –FMS
CAN and/or RS232) method.
The FMS Gateway G2™ has only one firmware for each manufacturing group and it
uses Automatic Vehicle Detection which means that after installing the device will detect
your vehicle by itself.
2.1 Main features
This intelligent interface provides solution for different needs, as listed below:
1 firmware for each manufacturing group
Automatic vehicle detection
FMS functionality (according to FMS 2.0 / 3.0 standard) to monitor vehicle
parameters
Eco-Driving functionality to monitor driver behavior
Additional CAN input for flexible CAN data capture
Analog input to monitor analogue signal
Tachograph functionality1to manage vehicle availability
Trailer information2to monitor vehicle gross weight, ABS activity, lamp status, etc.
Diagnostic Trouble Code3to assist vehicle maintenance
2.2 Features in comparison to FMS Gateway G1™
In comparison to FMS Gateway G1™interface the new generational device provides
additional features to the user, such as:

2.4 Product levels, device functionality (ECO vs. PLUS)
The FMS Gateway G2 device’s functionality depends on the purchased features. The
functionality can be extended by purchasing additional features. The new features will be
available after refreshing the G2 Device Database.
There are two product levels: Eco and Plus. The Eco has a different hardware than the Plus,
since it only has 2 connectors instead of 5. The available features of each different product
level are shown in the next table.

6. Connect device output to the telematics device
oFMS CAN and/or
Default baudrate: 250 kb/s, according to FMS Standard
oRS232 and/or
Default baudrate: 115200 b/s
7. Turn vehicle ignition ON, start engine and check FMS Gateway device LED status. LED
should be flashing green once in every 6 seconds. Should it be different, please see
Troubleshooting on Section 9.)
8. Check telematics device’s operating status (LED indicator if available) then verify the
dataflow from vehicle on remote server database.
7 Troubleshooting, LED status
The FMS Gateway has a status LED on the face of the enclosure which indicates the current
operational mode.
When ignition turns ON the status LED lights RED for 5s (initialization process), after this the
status LED indicates the current operation state. The status LED flashes 1-5 times in 5s
period with different color, see attached table.

7.1 Proper operation
Device works correctly, LED flashes GREEN 1 time in 5s period.
In this working state the device gets power supply (voltage and current OK) and detects the
input CAN and/or DIAG communication channels’messages.
In this operating state the device and the GPS device connection are correct, the GPS
device sends CAN acknowledges (in case of FMS CAN connection).
7.2 V_CAN 1 Error
In case of the status LED flashes RED 2 times in 5s period the FMS gateway detects error
on V_CAN input channel. The device detects CAN errors on vehicle CAN communication
bus.
Possible Faults:
FMS Gateway Firmware does not fit for this vehicle model
oCheck the updated firmware version, use FMS Gateway Support Tool to read
firmware version. Update firmware if necessary.
V_CAN 1 bus connection wrong:
oCheck V_CAN 1 connections (CAN Low ~2,3V, CAN High 2,7V DC)
V_CAN 1 bus lines reverse connection:
oCheck V_CAN 1 connections reverse polarity (CAN Low ~2,3V, CAN High
2,7V DC)
7.3 V_CAN 1 Idle
In case of the status LED flashes RED 3 times in 5s period the FMS Gateway does NOT
detect any communication in V_CAN 1 input CAN bus, while detecting active communication
on DIAG bus
Possible Faults:
No communication on input channel:

V_CAN 1 bus connection is wrong:

User’s Manual FMS Gateway G2™ interface
© Inventure Automotive Electronics R&D, Plc.
oCheck V_CAN 1 connections (CAN Low ~2,3V, CAN High 2,7V DC)
V_CAN 1 bus lines have reverse connection:
oCheck V_CAN 1 connections for reverse polarity (CAN Low ~2,3V, CAN High
2,7V DC)
7.4 DIAG Idle
In case of the status LED flashing 4 times RED in 5s period the FMS gateway does NOT
detect any communication in DIAG input bus, while detecting active communication on
V_CAN1 bus
Possible Faults:
No communication on input channel:
oTurn Ignition ON, and start the engine
DIAG bus connection is wrong:
oCheck DIAG connections
DIAG bus lines have reverse connection:
oCheck DIAG connections for reverse polarity
