FMC003 Data acquisition settings explanation unclear

TELEMATICS

The documentation about the data acquisition is a bit unclear to me. According to the documentation. The records are generated based on the following parameters. Which seems clear

  • Time based data acquisition (Min Period)
  • Distance based data acquisition (Min Distance)
  • Angle based data acquisition (Min Angle)
  • Speed based data acquisition (Min Speed Delta)

However, what is confusing to me is the send period parameter. According to the documentation the send period controls the frequency of data being sent to server over GPRS. What I understand from this is that based on the 4 parameters above the records will be generated and stored, and after the send period timer is over the records are sent. However, this is not the what actually happens. The fmc003 is sending data almost every 2-3 seconds when moving although send period is set to the default 120. How is this possible.

note: I also verified that the data I’m receiving are not events

I would appreciate some clear explanation.

Hi @imad,

Welcome to Teltonika Community Forum! Your logic is correct, the 4 Parameters above are for record generation, however, the Send Period would determine when these records would be sent to your server.

I recommend you to check on the Timestamp that you are taking from the device, is it the Time generated by the device, or the time these records are received on your server. If you are receiving 2-3 seconds from the device, another reason could be that there is a High Priority record that you have set on your Configuration.

I hope this helps.

Best regards,
