Interference Issues

Avoid possible radio frequency (RF) interference by following these guidelines:

• The use of cellular telephones or devices in aircraft is illegal. Use in aircraft may endanger operation and disrupt

the cellular network. Failure to observe this restriction may result in suspension or denial of cellular services to the offender, legal action or both.

• Do not operate in the vicinity of gasoline or diesel-fuel pumps unless use has been approved and authorized.

• Do not operate in locations where medical equipment that the device could interfere with may be in use.

• Do not operate in fuel depots, chemical plants, or blasting areas unless use has been approved and authorized.

• Use care if operating in the vicinity of protected personal medical devices, i.e., hearing aids and pacemakers.

• Operation in the presence of other electronic equipment may cause interference if equipment is incorrectly

protected. Follow recommendations for installation from equipment manufacturers.

Mobile Application Safety

• Do not change parameters or perform other maintenance of the Fusion LTE modem while driving.

• Road safety is crucial. Observe National Regulations for cellular telephones and devices in vehicles.

• Avoid potential interference with vehicle electronics by correctly installing the Fusion LTE modem. Leveraging the

FCC Modular approval of the Cellular and WiFi module requires professional install to avoid antenna correlation.

1.8 ANTENNA

LTE antenna connections are SMA female connectors and must be used with antenna with SMA male connectors. When using a direct mount or rubber duck antenna, choose the antenna specific to your band requirements. Mounting options and cable lengths are user’s choice and application specific. Each WWAN interface supports a primary and diversity antenna connector.

Connect an active 3-5.5V GPS antenna, with an average gain >-5dBi, if using the GPS functionality.

Fusion is available with WiFi options, using RP-SMA connectors. Depending on the model, connect each WiFi antenna to the proper connector. If equipped with a simple non-MIMO WiFi option, connect the primary WiFi antenna to the connector labeled “M’. For Fusions equipped with MIMO WiFi (2x2 or 3x3 MIMO), connect the WiFi antennas to any free RP-SMA connector.

This device is factory configured with default settings and is ready to be customized via HTML.

the SIM into the slot corresponding to the populated module (WWAN0 (left), WWAN1 (right). If you are using a dual card solution, you will need a SIM card in each slot.

2. Connect the antennas to the appropriate connectors on the front panel of the Fusion LTE modem.

3. Connect an Ethernet cable into the Eth1 port and plug the other end into the network port of your PC.

4. Connect the Power Cable to the modem PWR port and connect to an acceptable DC power source (10-30VDC).

2.4 LAN CONFIGURATION

The Fusion contains a DHCP server which will automatically assign an IP address to your PC, however in some cases the user may need to change the network settings on their PC to accept the IP address from the Fusion. Before powering on the unit, confirm that your PCs Ethernet port is set up to receive an IP address from an external DHCP server, confirm it is not set to a static address. The process to do this differs depending on the version of Windows you are using.

2.5 LOG IN

Start your web browser and enter 192.168.1.50 in the address bar. A login screen should appear

Note: The Ethernet cable between the Fusion and your PC must be connected to ETH1, for this IP address to work.

 Port

Specifies the IP port to use for each service.

3.2. 4 DYNAMIC DNS

Dynamic DNS is a system which allows the domain name data of a computer with a varying (dynamic) IP addresses held in a name server to be updated in real time in order to make it possible to establish connections to that machine without the need to track the actual IP address themselves at all times. A number of providers offer Dynamic DNS services ("DDNS"), free or for a charge.

Fusion allows distinct IP address / mnemonic name association for each of its WAN interfaces, as well as for the WAN interface used as the default route. En example use would be: car54 (for the default route), car54_wifi, car54_LTEB14, car54_VZW.

Configuration

 Dynamic DNS

Selecting Enabled will allow the modem to provide the selected service dynamic IP address information. Selecting Disabled will stop any IP information from being sent to the selected service.

3.8. 5 IP FILTERING

The "IP Filtering" page is used to configure IP filters.

The user can enter up to 20 IP filters. Each IP filter is identified by a unique number (from 1 to 20). An IP packet goes through the filtering logic when IP filtering is enabled and:

1) An IP packet is received on one of the interface and is destined to the Fusion LTE unit OR

2) An IP packet is sent by the Fusion LTE unit OR

3) An IP packet is forwarded by the Fusion LTE unit.

The filtering logic is the following:

if exists(filter[1]) AND match(packet, filter[1]) then apply(action[1]) else if exists(filter[2]) AND match(packet, filter[2]) then apply(action[2]) else if exists(filter[3]) AND match(packet, filter[3]) then apply(action[3]) ... else if exists(filter[20]) AND match(packet, filter[20]) then apply(action[20]) else process packet normally.

Where: exists(filter[n]) -> The user as defined filter number n. match(packet, filter[n]) -> The IP packet matches filter number n. apply(action[n]) -> The action identified in filter number n.

IP Filters

 IP Filtering

Enable : IP filtering is enabled. Any custom IP filters entered by the user will be taken into account when processing IP packets. The predefined IP filters will also be taken into account. Disable : IP filtering is disabled.

Predefined IP Filters

• Drop Remote Pings:

Set this to Disabled if you do not want the Fusion to respond to Pings. This can reduce your data usage and improve security but make debug more difficult.

• Drop Remote IP Fragments:

In some cases large packets sent by the host will be broken up and sent as fragments to the end device. Enable this if you want to drop those packets. In most cases this should be left disabled to ensure reliable end to end communication.

• Drop Invalid Packets:

Select enabled to force the Fusion to drop any incoming packets that have been determined to be invalid.

 Shutdown Method

Disabled by default; Select "Power off" to enable power management. If disabled, the Fusion will continue to run indefinitely even without the ignition on.

 After Ignition Line Off

Select between the following time intervals: 1, 5, 30 or 60 minutes. The Debounce time serves to avoid false detection and can be configured to values between 100 ms up to 3.2 seconds. This means that the Ignition must be stable for at least this amount of time for it to be recognized as OFF.

 When Voltage Drops Below

Enter desired voltage. Enter "0" to disable (and give precedence to time delay configured under "After ignition time off").

3.10.5 M O N I T O R I N G

The FUSION monitors some I/O and can report events when certain criteria are met. For example, a report can be generated when the temperature goes above some threshold value. Those can then optionally be reported through SNMP and NMEA independently. When NMEA is enabled, the user can define specific message indicating normal and abnormal conditions. SNMP reports on the other hand, are based on a mechanism with traps and defined in the SNMP protocol and the MIB structures.

3.10.6 I / O CO N T R O L

Relay Output Select

Select the initial state of the relays i.e. the state when the system boots up. Note that the “Active” state is delayed from power-up up to when the firmware has completed its boot process – this is approximately 30-40 seconds.

Digital I/O Select

The Digital I/O is configurable as input or output signals. The following picture presents a simplified model of the circuitry:

When in Output Mode, the Output State signal serves to control the Open Collector transistor output. When in Input Mode the Input Sense signal is fed into the Fusion and reported.

As inputs:

• Use LVTTL (3.3V) levels.

As outputs:

• - use as an open collector with 100 ohm limiting resistor.

• - Maximum Sink Current = 50mA for VCE_sat <=0.3V. Maximum VCE = 30VDC

Relay Output Control

Sets the state of the Relay output, Activate means the relay coil is energized and contacts become closed.

Digital Output Control

Those controls are only available when the Digital I/O Select is set to Output. Clicking on “Activate” means that the open collector transistor is set into conduction (saturation). The transistor can then sink up to 50 mA . Conversely, when it is deactivated, the transistor stops conducting and the collector is left floating through the internal 18.2 K pull-up resistor

The "Autonomous Automatic Vehicle Location" (AAVL) feature adds the ability for Fusion LTE Routers to transmit position reports either to a host connected to the local Ethernet port or to a remote host over the cellular network. AAVL allows the system designer to specify the maximum distance or the time interval between remote position reports.

Position reports can be transmitted in a number of possible formats. When the format is disabled or the Address or Port fields are blank, no report is sent.

GPS "sentences" are collected the from embedded GPS receiver in the Fusion LTE Router. These sentences are provided into the above formats and are available to both local and remote delivery services. Two TCP ports are available for clients to connect to and receive reports at the local or remote reporting rate. Each report from the TCP ports is terminated with carriage-return/linefeed characters (CRLF). Up to two local UDP Hosts and three remote UDP Hosts may be specified. Reports are sent as a datagram with no terminating CRLF.

Autonomous Automatic Vehicle Location Settings

 Differential Correction

Differential Correction allows WAAS correction information to be used to improve accuracy of the GPS position reports.

NOTE: WAAS correction applies to North America only. The WAAS satellites currently in service are 48 (Galaxy 15) and 51 (Anik F1R). The previous WAAS satellites 35 and 47 were taken out of service on 2007/07/30. WAAS improves the tracking accuracy of the GPS navigation system to approximately 10 feet.

Local delivery

The Fusion LTE Router will produce a report each second and send it to any connected TCP clients and to the specified UDP hosts. IMPORTANT! Local reports should only be delivered to addresses reachable through the local LAN or WiFi ports. Sending reports once per second or faster over the cellular network could result in a congested cellular network and/or extremely large network usage charges.

 TCP Server Format

Reports in the specified format (see the table above) are available to local clients that connect to TCP port 6257 of the Fusion LTE Router.

 UDP Host (1,2) Format

Reports in the specified format (see the table above) are sent to the specified IP address & port. NOTE: Different reports can be directed to the same UDP Host address & port.

 UDP Host (1,2) Address

IP address of the UDP Host in dotted decimal format

 UDP Host (1,2) Port

IP Port of the UDP Host (1024-65535).

Remote delivery

The Fusion LTE Router can be configured to report after a certain time or distance.

 Report every () seconds

Trigger the sending of a new remote report if the time since the last remote report exceeds the specified number of seconds.

 Report every () meters

Trigger the sending of a new remote report if the distance since the last remote report exceeds the specified distance (in meters).

 But no less than () seconds between reports

To prevent a fast-moving vehicle from reporting too frequently, a lower limit on the time between reports can be specified.

 TCP Server Format

Reports in the specified format (see the table above) are available to remote clients that connect to TCP port 6258 of the Fusion LTE Cellular Broadband Router.

 UDP Host (1,2,3) Format

Reports in the specified format (see the table above) are sent to the specified IP address & port. NOTE: Different reports can be directed to the same UDP Host address & port.

 UDP Host (1,2,3) Address

IP address of the UDP Host in dotted decimal format.

 UDP Host (1,2,3) Port

IP Port of the UDP Host (1024-65535).

3.12 MAINTENANCE

This section provides information that may be required when interfacing with CalAmp Customer Service personnel. In addition, it provides facilities to upgrade the firmware or modify the fundamental hardware configuration.

It is divided in three (3) subsections:

• Firmware

• Hardware

• Log

From the main navigation panel, select Maintenance for access to the screen.

3.12.1 S TA TU S

 Firmware

This is the complete identifier of the firmware that is current on the FUSION.

 Catalog Number

The catalog number is an encoded description of the installed optional modules in the FUSION.

 Serial Number

The serial number is also available on the label located on the FUSION enclosure..

3.12.2 F I R M W A R E

Installed Firmware

This is the complete identifier of the firmware that is current on the FUSION.

Components

This lists all firmware elements that are making–up the FUSION firmware. This provides useful information to help support customers.

Upgrade

When newer versions of FUSION firmware become available, the user can download the firmware from the CalAmp web site and manually update the unit by uploading a package to the unit.

Note that, unless explicitly stated, this process is safe and user is not expected to take any special precautions. Also, the unit remains fully operational for the duration of the upload phase. However, the unit automatically reboots once the upload completes, thus taking the FUSION out of service during approximately 1 minute.

3.12.3 H A R D W A R E

Hardware Information

This presents the unique serial numbers and other tracking information of the FUSION unit.

Catalog Number

The catalog number is an encoded description of the installed optional modules in the FUSION. User does not need to do changes to any of those settings. However, CalAmp personnel can provide assistance should a change to the hardware configuration be required (e.g.: Change the LTE module to support another carrier, …)

3.12.4 L O G

The Logging screen provides a way to capture the current status log of the modem. Log information is useful when contacting CalAmp Technical Support to resolve operational problems. Logs can be downloaded as text files by clicking on the “download” links

Syslog

Syslog display system logs that are stored in the log buffers. Those logs are cleared at every system boot
