2.4 Safety
All the associated (additional) equipment such as PC’s, batteries, sensors etc., shall meet the
requirements of standard EN60950-1.
Do not disassemble the terminal. If the enclosure of the terminal is damaged, or the insulation of
wires is damaged, first of all disconnect power supply cables from power supply source.
All of the wireless data transferring equipment produces interference that may affect other devices,
which are placed nearby.
The terminal can be installed or dismounted only by qualified personnel!
The terminal must be firmly fastened in the predefined location. Predefined location is described
in the mounting instructions.

The programming must be performed using a 2nd safety class PCs (with an autonomic power
supply).
Make sure that the terminal is installed in a place, where it will not be subjected to harsh
environmental conditions for extended time periods.
Caution! If an incorrect type of battery is used for replacement, there is a high explosion risk.
Dispose used batteries according to the environmental requirements.
Any installation and/or handling during a lightning storm is prohibited.
For configuration use cables that were purchased from Ruptela. Ruptela is not responsible for any
harm caused, while using wrong cables for the PC ↔Terminal connection.
Attention! Do not connect the wires marked red (power supply) and black (chassis) to the wrong
battery poles. Device has a reverse polarity protection, however if connected incorrectly, the device
will not work
To disconnect the device from the power supply, you need to disconnect 12 PINs plug from the
device or disconnect the wires from the vehicle‘s power supply.
This crossed-out wheelie bin symbol means that waste equipment should not be disposed of with
your other household waste. The product must be taken to separate collection points at the
product`s end-of life.
This chapter contains procedures to help you safely operate the FM terminal. By following these requirements
and recommendations, you will avoid dangerous situations. You must read these instructions carefully and
follow them strictly before operating the device! The terminal is supplied from a car battery with these ratings:
12/24 V DC. The allowed voltage range from the battery is from 10 volts to 32 volts DC. Max. current for FM-
Tco4 HCV is 250 mA @ 12 V DC. Max. current for FM-Tco4 HCV 3G is 350 mA @ 12 V DC.
To avoid mechanical damage, it is advised to transport the FM terminal in an impact-proof package.
Before connecting wires of the 12 PIN cable to the vehicle, it is recommended to ensure that the cross-
sectional area of wires mounting is at least 0.75 mm2.
To correctly dismount the terminal from the vehicle, first of all disconnect power supply wires (12 PIN
connector). Only then other plugs or interfaces can be disconnected.
The terminal is intended to be installed in a restricted access location, which is not accessible for the operator.

3Device description
3.1 About
Ruptela’s FM-Tco4 HCV/HCV 3G is 4th generation advanced, low power consumption but powerful tracking
device. It acquires its position by a GPS/GLONASS signal and transfers data to a server via cellular 3G or
GSM/GPRS network.
3G network support was not previously available for FM4 devices. This new feature in FM-Tco4 HCV 3G is
the main advantage over the FM-Tco4 HCV devices.
Some of other FM-Tco4 HCV/HCV 3G features:
1-Wire interface
USB power supply for configuration
2 x RS232 and 1 x RS485 ports that function at the same time
Dual CAN support (for FMS and tachograph connection)
Data from accelerometer for ECO-Drive
OBD functionality on standard firmware
ThermoKing, Optitemp, Weighting system, Garmin support
