How to install USB drivers

(Windows)

1. Please download COM port drivers from here.

2. Extract and run TeltonikaCOMDriver.exe.

3. Click Next in driver installation window.

4. In the following window click Install button.

Setup will continue installing the driver and eventually the

confirmation window will appear. Click Finish to complete the setup.

PC Connection (Windows)

1. Power-up TFT100 with DC voltage (10 –97 V) power supply using

power cable. LED’s should start blinking, see “LED indications”.

2. Connect device to computer using Micro-USB cable or Bluetooth

connection:

•Using Micro-USB cable

▬You will need to install USB drivers, see “How to install USB

drivers (Windows)”

•Using Bluetooth

▬TFT100 Bluetooth is enabled by default. Turn on Bluetooth

on your PC, then select Add Bluetooth or other device >

Bluetooth. Choose your device named –

“TFT100_last_7_imei_digits”, without LE in the end. Enter

default password 5555, press Connect and then select

Done.

3. You are now ready to use the device on your computer.

Configuration (Windows)

At first TFT100 device will have default factory settings set. These

settings should be changed according to the user's needs. Main

configuration can be performed via Teltonika Configurator software.

Get the latest Configurator version from here.Configurator operates

on Microsoft Windows OS and uses prerequisite MS .NET Framework.

Make sure you have the correct version installed.

Configuration process begins by pressing on connected device (Figure

9 Device connected via USB).

After connection to Configurator Status window will be displayed

(Figure 10 Configurator Status window).

Various Status window tabs display information about GNSS,GSM,

I/O, Maintenance and etc. TFT100 has one user editable profile, which

can be loaded and saved to the device. After any modification of

configuration the changes need to be saved to device using Save to

device button. Main buttons offer following functionality:

1. Load from device –loads configuration from device.

2. Save to device –saves configuration to device.

3. Load from file –loads configuration from file.

4. Save to file –saves configuration to file.

5. Update firmware –updates firmware on device.

6. Read records –reads records from the device.

7. Reboot device –restarts device.

8. Reset configuration –sets device configuration to default.

Most important configurator section is GPRS –where all your server

and GPRS settings can be configured and Data Acquisition –where

data acquiring parameters can be configured.

More details about TFT100 configuration using Configurator can be

found in our Wiki.

Quick SMS configuration

Default configuration has optimal parameters present to ensure best

performance of track quality and data usage.

Quickly set up your device by sending this SMS command to it:

Note: Before SMS text, two space symbols should be inserted.

GPRS settings:

•

2001

–APN

•

2002

–APN username (if there

are no APN username, empty

field should be left)

•

2003

–APN password (if there

are no APN password, empty

field should be left)

Server settings:

•

2004

–Domain

•

2005

–Port

•

2006

–Data sending protocol (0

–TCP, 1 –UDP)

Default configuration settings

Movement and ignition detection:

Vehicle movement will

be detected by

accelerometer

Ignition will be detected

by vehicle power voltage

between 10 –97 V or

CAN

Device makes a record On Moving if one of these events happen:

300 seconds passes

Vehicle turns 10 degrees

Vehicle drives 100

meters

Speed difference between

last coordinate and

current position is greater

than 10 km/h

Device makes a record On Stop if:

1 hour passes while

vehicle is stationary and

ignition is off

Records sending to server:

If device has made a

record it is sent to the

server every 120

seconds

After successful SMS configuration, TFT100 device will synchronize

time and update records to configured server. Time intervals and

default I/O elements can be changed by using Teltonika

Configurator or SMS parameters.

Mounting recommendations

•Connecting wires

▬Wires should be fastened to stable wires or other non-moving

parts. Any heat emitting and/or moving objects should be kept

away from the wires.

▬There should be no exposed wires. If factory isolation was

removed while connecting the wires, the isolation material

should be applied.

▬If the wires are placed in the exterior or in places where they

can be damaged or exposed to heat, humidity, dirt, etc.,

additional isolation should be applied and the wires should not

be loose.

▬Wires cannot be connected to the board computers or control

units.

•Connecting power source

▬Be sure that after the car computer goes to sleep mode, power

might be still available on the power wires. Depending on the

car model, this may happen in 5 to 30 minutes period.

▬When the module is connected, measure the voltage again to

make sure it did not decrease.

▬It is recommended to connect to the main power cable in the

fuse box.

•Connecting ground wire

▬Ground wire is connected to the vehicle frame or metal parts

that are fixed to the frame.

▬If the wire is fixed with the bolt, the loop must be connected to

the end of the wire.

▬For better contact scrub paint from the spot where loop is

going to be connected.

PAY ATTENTION! Connecting the power supply must be

carried out in a very low impedance point of on-board vehicle

network. Connecting the GND at an arbitrary point to the

mass of the car is unacceptable, as static and dynamic

potentials on the line GND will be unpredictable, which can

lead to unstable TFT100 operation and even its failure.
