1Introduction
1 1 Global
The intention of this guideline is to help to install / start-up the PikoLoad unit.
Due to the different vehicle brands and models it is not possible to have a global
installation guideline. The connectors, if already factory fitted, can be found at different
locations in the vehicle.
Some tools and guidelines in this document should assist you to install the PikoLoad in the
right way.

Check of the vehicle connection
Guideline Installation PikoLoad Page 7 / 32
Version 2
2Check of the vehicle connection
Please check the existing connections of the vehicle.
Try to get the configuration of the vehicle.
2 1 Vehicle ordered with function remote download ?
If yes, the wiring harness to the C-CAN of the tachograph (green connector) should be
available in the vehicle and the tachograph is configured to support remote download.
If no, the risk is that the tachograph is not configured to support remote download. The
wiring harness to the C-CAN of the tachograph might be missing as well.
Remark:
The configuration of the tachograph to support remote download can only be
done by an authorized workshop (with a workshop card) using a workshop toll
For Continental (Siemens VDO) a CTC II is necessary
2 2 Vehicle ordered with function FMS-Standard ?
If yes, the wiring harness should be available in the vehicle and the MS gateway is
correctly configured.
If no, there might be no MS data available at PikoLoad.
Remark:
The function must be configured at the workshop of the manufacturer of the vehicle.
The configuration can only be done with the brand specific workshop tool. In most cases it
is not necessary to install additional hardware.
Depending on the brand there might be new parameters needed. In some cases it is
necessary to install a new wiring harness.
2 3 Look for the „green connector“
If you did not get any information where the connector for MS/remote download can be
found in the vehicle, try to search it near the tachograph in one of the compartments. In
most cases the connector can be found in the overhead compartment of the driver. The
connector is green and with a wiring harness of about 1m length. If you are not sure that

Check of the vehicle connection
Guideline Installation PikoLoad Page 8 / 32
Version 2
you found the correct connector, please check if the power supply (Pin 12 = clamp 30),
ground (Pin 1 = clamp 31) and the ignition (Pin 10 = clamp 15) are available.

3.1.1 Make up of the MS wiring (no MS connector in the vehicle)
Make up the MS wiring in the vehicle (if no standard MS connector is available).
This step is not necessary if the vehicle has already a standard MS connector
(green colour).

Connect the C-CAN connector (red) to the C-CAN of the tachograph.
Attention: The connectors are coded (fits only to C-CAN)!
Please do not use any other connection to the tachograph! You might disturb the
correct function of the tachograph. Please keep in mind that any work at
tachographs is only allowed by authorized workshops!

4 1 Lock data at the tachograph to the company
If the data are not yet locked to the company you have to do it now with a valid
company card.
Insert the company card in the slot of the tachograph and lock the data (see
description of your tachograph).
Remark:
The data must be locked to the company otherwise you will not get access to your
data.
4 2 Do a FMS test (only for vehicles with FMS interface)
This test is only possible by using a MS-Test card. This card is part of the delivery
of the evaluation kit.
Figure 6: FMS-Test card
Insert the MS-Test card in the PikoLoad and plug in a USB-Stick.
The test starts automatically and runs for 1 minute.
The result are stored on the USB-Stick in the directory “pikotest”.
The data format is ASC.
The description of the format can be found on www.fms-test.com.
Each file is stored with a consecutive number:
Figure 7: Example data FMS test
The logged data can be avaluated under www.fms-test.com (no fee). The evaluation
shows as well which data are available at the fms interface.

4 3 Remote Download Test
Please do always a remote download test during installation. This test shows you
whether the tachograph is correctly configured and the company data are correctly
locked to the company. The successful test report can be archived with the
installation information. This gives you the possibility to have always the information
about the installed tachograph / vehicle present.

4.3.2 Start of the Remote Download Tests with a USB-Stick
Be sure that a company card is inserted in the slot of the PikoLoad.
Be sure that the PikoLoad is connected to the tachograph and power supply and
the ignition is on. Please make sure that ignition is not switched off during the
test run as it might result in an error message.
Insert the USB-stick with the following file in the PikoLoad:
ile name: RemDwlTest.PSS
Content ile: ACTION:RemDwlTest<CR><L >
Figure 13: Content of the file for Remote Download Test
Please note that:
•The file must be stored in the root directory of the USB-Stick
•After the remote download test run the file will be deleted automatically
at the
USB - Stick
The test starts automatically (see LED display) after the plug-in of the USB-Stick
containing this file.
After the test run the test result is stored on the USB-stick. The end of the test
run is shown by the LED display. Now remove the USB-Stick.
Note:
The test works with all valid company cards It is not necessary that the
data are locked to this company
