Question

I am using FMB140 for GPS tracking and I intend to gather this information thru CAN. I do not intend to use GPRS/GSM, neither do I have a SIM for it. Because time stamps are important in my application I would like that my RTC Time would be correct but at the moment it is completely off (01.01.2004). I understand that it should updates time automatically but it doesn't. Is there another way to try updating the time?

I connected my FMB140 with USB to my laptop and during the time I went thru the interface (~1 hour) the RTC time didn't update to real current time. It did show correct coordinates and update them in real time thru GNSS so the GPS was working. I had other constellations enabled as well but GPS was definitely tracking. May there be anything in settings that interferes with updating the RTC time or should I try something else?

Hello.

Time will be synchronized after catching GPS fix by device.

Thank you for the answer. I have read thru the whole System settings. I will modify my question so it is more understandable.

Please check if device has current firmware version installed and verify RTC time with getinfo command:
