FMC003 Teltonika – 4G OBD-II GPS Locator

He FMC003 from Teltonika Telematics It is a compact OBD-II GPS tracker with connectivity 4G LTE Cat 1 and 2G GSM/GPRS backup. It is designed to locate vehicles, record their movements, and obtain data from the control unit via the OBD-II port.

Unlike a conventional GPS tracker, the FMC003 combines GPS/GNSS positioning, 4G mobile communication, and OBD OEM parameter reading in a single device. Available data includes: actual odometer mileage, he OEM fuel level and up to 32 on-board parameters, depending on the vehicle's make, model, and compatibility.

The ability to read the OEM mileage and fuel level is one of the key features highlighted by Teltonika for this model. The manufacturer also maintains a list of compatible vehicles, allowing users to verify what information can be obtained for each vehicle before installation.

Plug & Play installation via OBD-II

Installing the FMC003 GPS is quick and requires no wiring in the vehicle. The device connects directly to the OBD-II port and receives power and data through the connector itself.

This system is especially useful when you need:

• install trackers in multiple vehicles quickly;
• avoid modifications to the electrical installation;
• transfer the device from one vehicle to another;
• reduce assembly time and cost;
• maintain a discreet and professional installation.

The OBD-II port must remain accessible and the vehicle must be among the compatible models to obtain the specific OEM parameters.

GPS location and 4G LTE Cat 1 connectivity

The FMC003 uses various satellite navigation systems, including GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and BeiDou. It can record the vehicle's position, speed, routes, stops, and events, and transmit this information to a management platform via the mobile network.

Their primary communication is through 4G LTE Cat 1 and it has network compatibility 2G GSM/GPRS as a backup. This combination provides continuity of service in areas where 2G coverage is still available.

The device does not include a built-in location platform for the end user. To view positions, routes, reports, and alarms, it must be configured with a SIM card and compatible tracking software.

OBD data reading and OEM parameters

The FMC003 supports standard OBD-II data and OEM parameters from the vehicle. Depending on model compatibility, it can provide information such as:

• actual mileage;
• fuel level;
• engine revolutions;
• ignition status;
• vehicle speed;
• specific parameters of electric vehicles;
• other OBD data available in the control unit.

Teltonika states that the device can handle up to 32 onboard parameters and provides an updated list of compatible vehicles and data. This allows users to know in advance which values will be available for a specific make, model, and year.

Bluetooth Low Energy

The FMC003 incorporates Bluetooth 4.0 + Low Energy to communicate with compatible BLE sensors, beacons, and accessories.

This connectivity allows the installation to be expanded with devices for:

• driver identification;
• temperature and humidity control;
• asset identification;
• detection of nearby beacons;
• local computer configuration.

The availability of each function will depend on the accessories, configuration, and management platform used.

Applications of FMC003

Due to its compact form factor, OBD reading capability, and quick installation, the FMC003 is suitable for:

• fleet management and tracking;
• light commercial vehicles;
• car rental;
• renting and leasing;
• travel and driver records;
• usage-based insurance telematics —UBI—;
• mileage and fuel control;
• connected vehicles;
• management of compatible electric vehicles.

Teltonika expressly presents the FMC003 for fleet management, rental and leasing, insurance telematics, connected vehicle and electric vehicle support applications.

Vehicle compatibility

The availability of OEM OBD data varies depending on the make, model, year, and engine. Before supplying or configuring the equipment, we recommend checking your vehicle against Teltonika's official compatibility list.

Gemisah can help verify:

• make and model;
• year of manufacture;
• type of fuel or engine;
• necessary parameters;
• compatibility with electric vehicles;
• planned monitoring platform.
