Question

Hello!!! i recently bought a local gps company whit over than 400 FMB 920 devices, most of those devices are sending excessive data, some are passing 100 mb per month due to crash sensor... so, there any way to modify configuration without going to the device? it is possible to do it using fota?

Answer 1

Pablo, you can reduce the amount of data transmitted by device simply through optimization of device's configuration. There is "I/O" section in Configurator, where you can exclude (set Priority to None) data fields you don't need to receive from device with every message. Crash sensor data can be cut via "Accelerometer Features" -> "Crash Sensor" settings.

Another option to decrease traffic -  to switch from TCP protocol to UDP. The drawback is that UDP is less reliable.

It depends on settings (amount of data collected and frequency of transmission). At least you can be sure, that in this regard Teltonikas are not inferior to other GPS-trackers.
