Configuration information
Starting from configurator version 00.03.04.XX, the configurator will display additional information
regarding the loaded configuration. The following information will be displayed at the top of the
configurator once a configuration is loaded (if no configuration is loaded, the fields will be empty):
1. Configuration source –can be from “Configurator” or from “Device”.
Configurator –means that the configuration is loaded from the PC;
Device [Device_IMEI] –means that the configuration was received from the FM device;
2. FM device FW version –this will be displayed only if the configuration was received from the
device;
3. FM4 configurator version –show the configurator version on which the currently loaded
configuration was made;
4. Target device –display the FM device model for which this configuration was created or from
which device it was downloaded;
5. CFG Tag –is simply additional information that the user can save with the configuration file.
Maximum length is 32 symbols, only printable ASCII characters are allowed;
6. Last edited –display the date and time when the configuration was last edited. If the edit was
from a PC, the time will be the same as the PCs local time. If the configuration was received
from the device, and the device currently has no time from any source, the date and time will be
shown as the beginning of this century (2000/01/01 00:00:00);
7. If any changes were made to the currently loaded configuration, a small “*” symbol will appear
next to the name of the configuration.
Configuration additional steps
Sample parameters will be loaded. However you will need to enter other parameters on your own. Enter
IP (in the 255.255.255.255 format) or a Domain Name (not exceeding 40 characters) and PORT to
which the device should send data.
1. Enter APN settings: APN name, User login and Password (if login and password needed). If you
choose to enable Lock FM device to the SIM card check-box you will be required to enter SIM
card’s PIN code every time you try to connect to the device via USB cable. As long as it is
checked you will not be able to use different SIM cards with this device.
2. Select a COM port you connected the device to and click Connect. At this point the configuration
is ready to be send to the device, so the device must be connected to the computer.
3. Click the Send CFG button. The configuration will be uploaded to the device.
Note
APN name, login and password should be provided by your mobile network operator

Now the device is configured to send data to the specific server. Sample IO parameters are enabled
(loaded with configuration file). You can log in to your tracking platform to see whether the device is
sending data.
5.3 Advanced configuration
The configuration tool is quite similar to the one used for 3rd generation devices. Overview of the
configuration is described in sections.
The File menu gives you access to control configuration
files. Choose New/Save/Open CFG to perform the
corresponding action. CFG means full configuration file.
New CFG wizard –It helps users to go through all basic
configuration steps.
Generate SMS –This tool allows the user to generate a
SMS command to configure the FM device remotely. Working principle and general SMS command
functionality is described in the “Device configuration via SMS” document at doc.ruptela.lt
The Tools menu contains:
Language selection options: English or Russian are available.
Diagnostics tool.
Save/Open DIFF allows you to create a DIFF file. DIFF files are used to change only one or few certain
parameters without a need to upload the full configuration to the device. It is useful, when updating
over-the-air.

[e-mail] |www.ruptela.com
Attention
A DIFF file will save all made changes to a configuration. For example changing a number in the IP
filed, or marking a checkbox, but, if a change was made, and afterwards reverted to the previous state
(checkbox checked, and unchecked afterwards), this will not be marked as a "change made". DIFF will
only record changes made to the initial configuration (a loaded pre-set configuration is considered an
initial configuration). Particular attention must be taken, when creating a DIFF file, to avoid accidental
changes to the configuration.
The control panel on the left hand side allows you to select and control the device.
Select the COM port that the device is connected to and click “Connect”. At this
point the FM4 configurator checks the compatibility between itself and firmware in
the device. Every firmware version is released together with a recommended FM4
configurator. More information about different firmwares and recommended
configurators for them can be found in firmware changelogs. After the compatibility
check, three outcomes are possible:
1. The firmware and configurator versions are compatible. Go ahead and
continue configuring the FM device.
2. The configurator is too old for the current firmware version. An error message
will appear. The “Send CFG” and “Get CFG” buttons will be disabled. You will
need to download a new version of the configurator, recommended for the
firmware version.
3. The firmware is too old for the current configurator version. An error message
will appear. The configurator will suggest to update the firmware automatically. To update the
firmware, click “Yes”. The firmware will be updated to the version supported by the
configurator. This can be done without an internet connection. Click “No” to close the message
without updating the firmware. If the firmware is not updated, the “Send CFG” and “Get CFG”
buttons will be disabled. We highly recommend using the latest firmware and configurator.
The “Send CFG” and “Get CFG” buttons are used to send and receive the configuration file to/from the
device.
“Send FW” is used to send new firmware to your device manually.
In the drop-down list below you can select the model of the device. If you connected one to your PC, it
will be displayed. Now Eco4 should be displayed.
5.3.1 Global settings
The first part of the configuration tool is “Global” settings. Global includes connection settings and other
settings independent from the profile settings –global settings are the same for all profiles.

Connection settings here you should enter server IP and port that the device should connect to. The
IP can be entered in the numeric format: 255.255.255.255. You can also use a Domain name (not
exceeding 40 characters). IP 2 is a backup IP address, which is used when the device is unable to
connect to the first server.
Note
Please have in mind that ports for TCP and UDP transfer protocols usually are different –please select
the correct transfer protocol and enter the correct port.
Two servers –checkbox changes the logic described above. It enables a two servers mode –
the same data is repeatedly transmitted to another server with IP2, unless we get a timeout. IP1
is dedicated IP for server, from which we get the ACK’s for our record packets sent. After we get
the ACK from this IP, record data is considered as successfully transmitted to the server and it is
removed from the memory.
In this mode data is sent to IP2 only when connection to the IP1 is established. Packet, which is
sent to the IP1 server is also sent to the IP2 server.
Only records are going to be send to the IP2. Data packets such as Transparent Channel,
Tachograph, SD card, Garmin will not be send to the IP2.
Unable to send data:
When unable to establish connection to IP1, device does not connect to the IP2 as well. When
connected to IP1 and doing data transmission, but IP2 is unreachable –after receiving ACK from
IP1 server, data is removed from memory, which can cause information loss in IP2 server.
Note
Two server mode doubles the amount of data that is being sent. Before using this functionality
consider the cost which arises from the higher data traffic.
Protocol sections allows you to choose from two protocols. UDP protocol is less reliable than the TCP,
but also uses less traffic. TCP uses more internet traffic, but it is more reliable. Choose one according to
your needs.

Note
If the IP, port or APN fields are greyed out when the device is connected to the configurator, their
values cannot be changed.
APN settings are needed for internet connection. These settings must be provided by your mobile
network provider. Without APN settings the device will not send any data.
If you choose to enable the Lock FM device to the SIM card
check-box you will be required to the enter SIM card’s PIN code every
time you try to connect to the device via USB cable. As long as it is
checked you will not be able to use a different SIM card with this
device.
Note
If the “SIM status” checkbox is not enabled, the “Enter PIN” window will not
appear when connecting to a FM device. This means you will not be able to
access your device.
If the wrong PIN is typed in more than three times, the SIM card will
be locked.
It can be returned to its original unlocked state by entering a PUK,
provided by the service operator after verification. If the wrong PUK is
entered ten times in a row, the device will become permanently
blocked and unrecoverable, requiring a new SIM card. Once you enter the PUK code, you must
set a new PIN.
SIM status section at the
bottom of the configuration
tool displays SIM card related
information. By default, feature
is disabled. Tick the checkbox to enable it.
Total of seven different statuses are available:
1. Ready –PIN code is known or PIN code check is disabled. GSM/GPRS modem can
operate normally.
2. Error –Represents a wide range of possible problems. Common reason would be old FW
version, which does not support SIM commands.
3. Unknown –Communication between device and GSM/GPRS modem failed, SIM status is
unknown.
