2 System Overview
2.1 Overview
The entire purpose behind a fleet management system is to be able to remotely contact a vehicle, determine its location or status, and do something meaningful with that information. This could include displaying the vehicle location on a map, performing an address look-up, providing real-time driving directions, updating the vehicles ETA, monitoring vehicle and driver status or dispatching the vehicle to its next pick up.
These functions, of course, are completely dependent on the capabilities of the vehicle management application. The role of the CalAmp LMU-5000™ is to deliver the location information when and where it is needed.
A typical fleet management system based on a CalAmp device includes the following components:
A wireless data network

3 Hardware Overview
3.1 Location Messaging Unit-LMU-5000™
3.1.1 LMU-5000™ Handling Precautions
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is the sudden and momentary electric current that flows between two objects at different electrical potentials caused by direct contact or induced by an electrostatic field. The term is usually used in the electronics and other industries to describe momentary unwanted currents that may cause damage to electronic equipment.
ESD Handling Precautions
ESD prevention is based on establishing an Electrostatic Protective Area (EPA). The EPA can be a small working station or a large manufacturing area. The main principle of an EPA is that there are no highly charging materials in the vicinity of ESD sensitive electronics, all conductive materials are grounded, workers are grounded, and charge build-up on ESD sensitive electronics is prevented. International standards are used to define typical EPA and can be obtained for example from International Electro-technical Commission (IEC) or American National Standards Institute (ANSI).
This ESD classification of the sub assembly will be defined for the most sensitive component, therefore the following classifications apply:
Class 1B – Human Model (< 1 kV) Class M1 – Machine Model (< 100V)
When handling the LMU-5000’s™ main-board (i.e. sub assembly) by itself or in a partial housing proper ESD precautions should be taken. The handler should be in an ESD safe area and be properly grounded.
GPS Ceramic Patch Handling
When handling the sub assembly it may be natural to pick it up by sides and make contact with the antenna boards. In an uncontrolled ESD environment contact with the center pin of ceramic patch antenna can create a path for electrostatic discharge directly to the GPS Module. The GPS Module is very sensitive to ESD and can be damaged and rendered non-functional at low levels of ESD.
One should avoid contact with the center pin of the patch during handling. The Factory will be placing a protective layer of Kapton® tape over the patch element to eliminate this ESD path.
Packaging
Anytime the sub assembly is shipped and it is not fully packaged in its final housing it must be sealed in an ESD safe bag.
10/12/13 LMU-5000 Hardware & Installation Guide - PULS Wiki
https://puls.calamp.com/wiki/LMU-5000_Hardware_%26_Installation_Guide 8/55
Electrical Over-Stress (EOS)
The GPS receiver can be damaged if exposed to an RF level that exceeds its maximum input rating. Such exposure can happen if a nearby source transmits an RF signal at sufficiently high level to cause damage.
Storage and Shipping
One potential source of EOS is proximity of one LMU-5000™ GPS Antenna to another LMU-5000™ GSM Antenna. Should one of the units be in a transmit mode the potential exists for the other unit to become damaged. Therefore any LMU-5000™ GPS Antenna should be kept at least four inches apart from any active LMU-5000™ GSM Antenna or any other active high power RF transmitter with power greater than 1 Watt.
3.1.2 Battery Back-up devices
Please properly dispose of the battery in any of the CalAmp products that utilize one, do not just throw used batteries, replaced batteries, or units containing a back-up battery into the trash. Consult your local waste management facility for proper disposal instructions.
3.1.3 Environmental Specifications
The LMU-5000™ is designed to operate in environments typically encountered by fleet vehicles, including wide temperature extremes, voltage transients, and potential interference from other vehicle equipment.
To ensure proper operation in such an environment, the LMU-5000™ was subjected to standard tests defined by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE). The specific tests included temperature, shock, vibration, and EMI/EMC. These tests were performed by independent labs and documented in a detailed test report. In accordance with Appendix A of SAE J1113 Part 1, the Unit is considered a “Functional Status Class B, Performance Region II” system that requires Threat Level 3 Testing.
The following shows the environmental conditions the LMU is designed to operate in and the relevant SAE tests that were performed. No formal altitude tests were conducted.

3.5.1 Ignition and Inputs
The LMU-5000™ provides up to 7 High/low selectable inputs and one Ignition Sense input.. These inputs are protected from typical vehicle transients and can be directly connected to most vehicle level logical inputs from 4 volts up to the vehicle power input level (typically 12 VDC). Their input impedance is approximately 10k. One of these inputs is dedicated to sensing the vehicle’s ignition status to provide for flexible power management. The other seven inputs may be used to sense vehicle inputs such as cooling unit operation, a hidden driver “Panic” switch, taxi on-duty/off-duty meter status or many others.
The ignition input is pulled to ground through the 10k resistance, where the other inputs can be configured to be normally High (i.e. pulled to +12v through a 200K10k resistor) or Low (i.e. pulled to ground through a 100K10k resistor). The diagrams below show how to connect the inputs in both a high- and low-biased configuration:

All LMU-5000s™ must go through a common step during the configuration and provisioning process. Specifically, this is pointing the LMU to your LM Direct™ server, either via IP or a URL.
This configuration process is accomplished via a series of AT Commands:
1. Power up the LMU-5000™ and connect a serial cable from the LMU to your laptop
2. Open a terminal session to the LMU-5000™
3. Enter the address of the LM Direct™ server:
AT$APP PARAM 2319,0,ddd.ddd.ddd.ddd AT$APP PARAM 768,0,ddd.ddd.ddd.ddd (32-bit products only)
10/12/13 LMU-5000 Hardware & Installation Guide - PULS Wiki
https://puls.calamp.com/wiki/LMU-5000_Hardware_%26_Installation_Guide 19/55
AT$APP PARAM 769,0,ppppp
Where ddd.ddd.ddd.ddd is the publicly addressable IPV4 address of your LM Direct™ server and ppppp is the UDP port number.
4. Alternatively if a URL has been set up for your LM Direct™ server, the LMU may be programmed with:
AT$APP PARAM 2319,0,myURL.MyCompany.Com
Where myURL.MyCompany.com is the URL assigned to the server.
5. Enter ATIC to verify the correct settings are displayed for your Inbound Server.
This configuration process is accomplished via a series of SMS Commands:
1. Power up the LMU-5000™ and your handset
2. From the handset, send an SMS message to the LMU-5000™ phone number:
!RP,2319,0,ddd.ddd.ddd.ddd !RP,768,0,ddd.ddd.ddd.ddd (32-bit products only) !RP,769,ppppp
Where ddd.ddd.ddd.ddd is the publicly addressable IPV4 address of your LM Direct™ server and ppppp is the UDP port number
3. Alternatively if a URL has been set up for your LM Direct™ server, the LMU may be programmed with:
!RP,2319,0,myURL.MyCompany.Com
Where myURL.MyCompany.com is the URL assigned to the server
4. Verify your settings by sending the commands:
!RP?2319,0 !RP?769,0.
4.2 Auto provisioning of GSM or HSPA LMUs
For certain operators, the LMU can auto-populate the APN, username and password settings based on the
10/12/13 LMU-5000 Hardware & Installation Guide - PULS Wiki
https://puls.calamp.com/wiki/LMU-5000_Hardware_%26_Installation_Guide 20/55
Mobile Country Code (MCC) and the Mobile Network Code (MNC) of the SIM. Upon inserting a new SIM the APN, username and password will switch to the new SIM card's defaults if the MCC and MNC values change. The current list of supported MCC and MNC combinations are:

This feature can be disabled by setting Bit 0 of S-Register 155.
AT$APP PARAM 1024,35,1,1
To re-enable auto-provisioning, use:
AT$APP PARAM 1024,35,1,0
Auto-provisioning occurs when the LMU detects a SIM with a new operator ID (i.e. the first 6 digits of the IMSI) or when Bit 0 of S155 is cleared and the GPRS context is blank (i.e. Parameter 2306,0).
4.3 Activating GSM or HSPA LMU using AT Commands
Check with the CalAmp Sales team for availability of the LMU-5000™ with GSM or HSPA modems. For a GSM/GPRS operator you will get the LMU in one of two varieties, one with a SIM and one
without.
If you get an LMU without a SIM (which is the typical case) the operator will simply ask for the IMEI of the LMU. The IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identifier) is printed on the bottom of the LMU under the LMU’s ESN. Again, DO NOT give the operator the ESN of the LMU.
10/12/13 LMU-5000 Hardware & Installation Guide - PULS Wiki
https://puls.calamp.com/wiki/LMU-5000_Hardware_%26_Installation_Guide 22/55
The operator will provide you with a SIM for each account activated. If they are especially nice (or you are especially persistent) they will also give you a list tying the IMSI (International Subscriber Identifier) of the SIM to the phone number assigned to it. Please note that the operator will likely tie the IMSI (i.e. the SIM) to a specific IMEI. Making sure the specific SIM matches to the right IMEI isn’t strictly necessary, but it will keep everyone’s book-keeping a little cleaner. You may also obtain this information by running a CSV report in PULS (after the devices have connected to the network and sent in their first ID Report). See the PULS Users Guide for more information.
If you do happen to have a SIM, the operator will ask for the IMSI and ICC-ID (Integrated Circuit Card Identifier) along with the IMEI of the LMU. Again, in return you should get a list of IMSIs and Phone Numbers.
The IMEI, IMSI and ICC-ID are all available through the ATI1 command. The IMEI should also be printed on the bottom of the LMU.
You should also get an APN (Access Point Name) value. The APN is the device on the network that allows a GPRS device (i.e. the LMU) to get to the internet. They tend to look like a URL, for example:
myAPN.myOperator.com
Operators can offer more than one type of APN and can even set up a custom APN just for your devices. The rates they charge will vary depending on the APN service you want. Operators may also request you use a blank APN. With the APN, you should also receive a username and password combination.
The last item an operator may provide is a SIM PIN. The PIN is effectively a password to the device. The main difference here is that the PIN will restrict all the capabilities of the GSM device, where the SPC is used just for configuration.
The activation sequence for a GSM LMU would therefore look as follows:
AT$APP PARAM 2306,0,“myAPN.myOperator.com” AT$APP PARAM 2306,1,“myAPN.myOperator.com” AT$APP PARAM 2314,0,“myUSername” AT$APP PARAM 2315,0,“myPassword”
For a blank APN the following command can be used:
AT$APP PARAM 2306,0,“” (for a blank APN)
Only enter this next command if you have been given a non-zero PIN as any errors may lock you out of the modem.
AT$APP PIN <SIM pin>
You can confirm activation by watching the Comm LED to see if it goes solid. You may also confirm activation using

https://puls.calamp.com/wiki/LMU-5000_Hardware_%26_Installation_Guide 23/55
AT$APP COMM STATUS?
A good response should look similar to the following:
GSM Registered: Yes GPRS Registered: Yes Connection: Yes RSSI: -70 dBm BER: 0 Channel: 0 Cell ID: 0 Base Station ID: 0 Local Area Code: 0 Network Code: 38 Country Code: 310 IMEI (Modem S/N): 500167110060440 IMSI (SIM S/N): 310380100521849 Phone Number: GPRS APN: IP:Public Quality of Srvc: 1,0,0,3,0,0 GSM Class: B
4.4 Accessing the SIM
4.5 Activating a CDMA LMU-5000™
Check with the CalAmp Sales team for availability of the LMU-5000™ with CDMA modems. For
CDMA devices, the activation sequence you will use varies from carrier to carrier. Each of the supported carriers is documented below.
To obtain an account, a CDMA carrier will generally ask for three things, the Manufacturer, the Product Type and the ESN. Obviously the first two items are answered by “CalAmp LMU”. The last one is a little misleading. The ESN on the LMU is the CalAmp serial number. The one the operator is interested in is the MSN-D (which they call the decimal ESN). DO NOT give them the CalAmp ESN (i.e. the top one on the label). It will only lead to the carrier telling you that the product doesn’t exist and they can’t activate it for you.
What you should get back will vary from operator to operator; however at very least it will be the MDN (Mobile Directory Number) and MIN (Mobile Information Number). You should also ask for the SPC (Service Programming Code) in case it is not 000000. The SPC is effectively a password to the modem which allows you to program some of the more sensitive items (ex: the MDN and MIN). Please note that the MIN and MSID can be the same value.
4.5.1 Activating a CDMA LMU-5000™ – Verizon
Verizon supports a system that allows CDMA devices to be provisioned Over-The-Air. A CalAmp LMU­5000™ will automatically use this system to attempt to self provision. This procedure assumes that the LMU­5000™ has never been provisioned or activated before.
1. Power on the LMU-5000™, making sure you can observe the behavior of the Comm LED.
10/12/13 LMU-5000 Hardware & Installation Guide - PULS Wiki
https://puls.calamp.com/wiki/LMU-5000_Hardware_%26_Installation_Guide 24/55
2. Wait until the Comm LED turns solid. This could take up to 5 minutes.
3. If after 5 minutes you observe that the Comm LED transitions from a slow blink to a fast blink several times (i.e. more than twice) you will need to contact Verizon Wireless for further support on account activation.
Once configured, you may verify that the LMU-5000™’s modem has registered to the CDMA network. Enter:
AT$APP COMM STATUS?
The response should be similar to:
CDMA Service: IS-2000 Connection: Yes RSSI: -80 dBm Channel: 0 Band:Side: 800:B Base Station ID: 0 Network ID: 0 System ID: 4 ESN (Modem S/N: 2676319948 [9F8566CC] Phone Number: 1234567890 IMSI: 310001234567890 CarrierConfig: 5
Note that the Phone Number should match the MDN value the carrier gave you. The last 10 digits of the IMSI field should match the MIN/MSID value they gave you.
For devices that have had previous activations, an Over-The-Air activation process may be manually started using a single AT Command:
AT$APP MODEM UPDATE
This command is also used to initiate an Over-The-Air PRL Update for devices that are already provisioned.
Users may also force a reactivation with the command:
AT$APP MODEM ACTIVATE
Keep in mind, however, this may cause the modem to lose its credentials and become unable to register to the network.
4.5.2 Activating a CDMA LMU-5000™ – Sprint
10/12/13 LMU-5000 Hardware & Installation Guide - PULS Wiki
https://puls.calamp.com/wiki/LMU-5000_Hardware_%26_Installation_Guide 25/55
Activating an LMU-5000™ on the Sprint CDMA network is identical to activating on the Verizon network.
1. Power on the LMU-5000™, making sure you can observe the behavior of the Comm LED.
2. Wait until the Comm LED turns solid. This could take up to 5 minutes.
3. If after 5 minutes you observe that the Comm LED transitions from a slow blink to a fast blink several times (i.e. more than twice) you will need to contact Sprint for further support on account activation..
Once configured, you may verify that the LMU-5000’s™ modem has registered to the CDMA network. Enter:
AT$APP COMM STATUS?
The response should be similar to:
CDMA Service: IS-2000 Connection: Yes RSSI: -80 dBm Channel: 0 Band:Side: 800:B Base Station ID: 0 Network ID: 0 System ID: 4145 ESN (Modem S/N: 2676319948 [9F8566CC] Phone Number: 1234567890 IMSI: 310001234567890 CarrierConfig: 1
The Phone Number field should match the <Phone Number> value you used in step 3 or 4. The last 10 digits of the IMSI field should match the <MSID> value you used in step 3 or 4.
4.5.3 Activating a CDMA LMU-5000™ – Bell Mobility
While the Bell Mobility network does support Over-The-Air activation processes like those used by Sprint or Verizon Wireless, it requires that the user enter several menu choices in order to complete activation. Unfortunately, this is something the LMU-5000™ does not support, so the activation must be performed manually. Bell Mobility will provide you with a password to gain access to the network (ex: 8889).
The activation procedure will be as follows:
1. Power on the LMU-5000™.
2. Connect to the LMU-5000™ using HyperTerminal or PuTTY
3. Issue the following AT Command:
ATPASSTHRU ATE1 AT$SPSPC=000000 AT+MNAM=,0,<MIN>,<MDN>,,,0,1000000,1,1,1, ctrl C
10/12/13 LMU-5000 Hardware & Installation Guide - PULS Wiki
https://puls.calamp.com/wiki/LMU-5000_Hardware_%26_Installation_Guide 26/55
4. Program in the network password using:
AT$APP PARAM 2315,0,”<Bell Password>”
5. Program in the network username using:
AT$APP PARAM 2314,0,”<Phone Number>@1x.bell.ca”
6. Verify the above settings with:
AT$APP PPP?
The LMU-5000™ should return the following:
PPP 0 USER <Phone Number>@1x.bell.ca * PPP 0 PASSWORD <Bell Password> * PPP 1 USER PPP 1 PASSWORD
OK
Once configured, you may verify that the LMU-5000™’s modem has registered to the CDMA network. Enter:
AT$APP COMM STATUS?
The response should be similar to:
CDMA Service : IS-2000 Connection: Yes RSSI : -80 dBm Channel: 0 Band:Side: 800:B Base Station ID: 0 Network ID: 0 System ID: 16410 ESN (Modem S/N: 2676319948 [9F8566CC] Phone Number : 1234567890 IMSI : 310001234567890 CarrierConfig: 13

The Phone Number field should match the <Phone Number> value you used in step 3 or 4. The last 10 digits of the IMSI field should match the <MSID> value you used in step 3 or 4.
5 Installing the LMU
The installation of the LMU and its antennas can have a major impact on the LMU’s performance. It is recommended that installers be familiar with the installation of GPS and cellular devices and are comfortable in a vehicle environment.
5.1 Preparing for Installation
Be sure you have received all the LMU components you need. This must include:
The LMU to be installed A power harness GPS Antenna (for external devices) Comm Antenna (for external devices) Optional Components:
Input and output cables Relays LMU peripherals (i.e. Serial adapter, jPOD, TetheredLocator) Host serial devices (e.g. PDAs, laptops, other serial devices)
5.2 Plan The Installation
Verify Powe r, Ground and Ignition. Be sure to check each source (power, ground and ignition) to ensure
that the proper signaling exists. This is typically accomplished with a multi-meter.
Before drilling any holes or running any wires, decide where each hardware component will be located (LMU, antennas, peripherals, etc.). Be sure that the cables to the LMU are not bent or constricted in any way. Also make sure that the LMU is kept free from direct exposure to the elements (sun, heat, rain, moisture etc...).
Be advise d that an installation that violates the environmental specifications of the LMU will void the warranty.
The best way to ensure a trouble-free installation is to consider your options and make some decisions before you start. Take a look at the vehicle and determine how to best install the LMU for the following purposes:
Accurate data gathering and simulation of how customers actually use your solution Ongoing monitoring and maintenance of LMU equipment Accidental or intentional alteration of the equipment or cable connections
The following sections cover some of the issues to consider when planning your LMU installation.
10/12/13 LMU-5000 Hardware & Installation Guide - PULS Wiki
https://puls.calamp.com/wiki/LMU-5000_Hardware_%26_Installation_Guide 28/55
5.2.1 Size and Placement of LMU Unit
The dimensions of the LMU should be taken into account, particularly when installing in a vehicle:
Whether you intend to place the LMU under a seat or into a cavity behind the vehicle’s interior molded trim, be sure the LMU will fit before drilling any holes or running cable
Be certain that the cables running to the LMU will not be bent or constricted. Damage to the cables may impede the LMU’s performance. Be certain that the installation point will not violate any of the LMU’s environmental specification (temperature, moisture, etc…) as improper installation of the LMU may void the warranty.
See the LMU Environmental Specifications for the exact measurements and specifications of the LMU­5000™.
Typical installations will place the LMU under the vehicle dash board, or in the trunk. Make sure you can get access to the unit afterwards as under some circumstances it may be necessary to add additional wiring or connections to the LMU.
5.2.2 Placement of Antennas
There are effectively three options for placements of an antenna:
Roof-mount (magnetic or thru-hole) Glass-mount Covert (e.g. under the seat, dash, etc…)
Comm Antenna Placement Guidelines
The Comm. Antenna must be located at least 20cm away from vehicle passengers, other personnel, or bystanders in order to comply with FCC radio frequency exposure limits.
Typically, the Comm antenna used by the LMU for wireless service is a standard 3-dB gain whip. It mounts with standard mounts (i.e. thru-hole, magnetic mount or peel and stick) and requires a ground plane to work properly. If possible, it should be located at least 3 feet from the GPS antenna. Ensure that the cable does not get crushed during installation.
Please note that the antennas provided by CalAmp combine both the GPS and Comm portions.
GPS Antenna Placement Guidelines
In order to maximize the performance of the LMU the GPS antenna should have a clear view of the sky. When installing the GPS antenna on a vehicle, make sure that there are no obstructions close to the antenna that might block the view 360° to the horizon. Things like air horns, lights, vents, etc… should not block the antenna beyond 5° above the horizon. The best location is usually near the center of the roof; however it is also desirable to locate the cellular antenna as far from the GPS antenna as is practical.
10/12/13 LMU-5000 Hardware & Installation Guide - PULS Wiki
https://puls.calamp.com/wiki/LMU-5000_Hardware_%26_Installation_Guide 29/55
Examples of good and poor GPS antenna placements
The received signal levels at the GPS antenna from the satellites are very low in power (approximately -136 dBm), so any blockage of the antenna can affect the quality of the location computed by the receiver. Kinks or tight knots in the antenna cable can also prevent the GPS receiver from operating properly. When laying out the antenna cable, care should be taken so that the cable is not subjected to crushing or strain.
Placement of Combination and Internal Antennas
When dealing with combination antennas, it is more important to considered GPS performance over Comm performance. GPS signal strengths are much lower than those typically seen by cellular networks supported by the LMU. In order to maximize the performance the LMU should have a clear view of the sky as possible. When installing the GPS antenna in a vehicle, make sure that there are as few obstructions as possible close to the LMU that might block the view 360° to the horizon. As with stand-alone GPS antennas, nothing should not block the combination antenna beyond 5° above the horizon with the best location being near the center of the roof. For more covert installs, directly under the front or rear-windshields are also acceptable.
Examples of Good (Green), OK(Yellow) and Poor(Red) combo antenna
placements

https://puls.calamp.com/wiki/LMU-5000_Hardware_%26_Installation_Guide 30/55
Examples OK(Yellow) and Poor(Red) internal antenna placements
5.2.3 Access to the SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) Card
When used in a GSM or iDEN network, each LMU uses a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card, which should be inserted before you install the LMU for the first time. The SIM card is attached to the main-board inside the housing of the LMU unit.
At some future time, you might need or want to replace the SIM card with a different one, so try to install the LMU in such a way that the cover can be removed to make the SIM card accessible.
5.2.4 Protection from Heat
It is best not to place the LMU unit in an unusually warm location such as directly near heater vents, near hot engine components or in direct sunlight. The maximum temperature that can be tolerated by the LMU is described in the LMU Environmental Specifications section.
5.2.5 Visibility of Diagnostic LEDs
Status LED lights on the front of the LMU unit can provide valuable information about the operation of the LMU. When feasible, attempt to install the LMU in such a way that these lights can be seen with reasonable ease.
You may find it useful to be able to view the LEDs periodically to make sure that the LMU is operating properly. If at any time you should encounter a problem with the LMU, you may need to read the LEDs in order to troubleshoot the problem. If you cannot fix the LMU yourself, you will need to provide the LED information to CalAmp customer support.
For information about how to interpret the LEDs, see the Status LED Behavior section.
5.2.6 Cable Length
10/12/13 LMU-5000 Hardware & Installation Guide - PULS Wiki
https://puls.calamp.com/wiki/LMU-5000_Hardware_%26_Installation_Guide 31/55
The RF cables which are provided for connecting to the LMU antennas should be used at the length provided. Do not cut cables. Instead, coil any excess cable length, making sure not to crimp or flatten the antenna cable.
5.2.7 Moisture and Weather Protection
The LMU unit must be located where it will not be exposed to moisture or water. In a typical installation inside a vehicle this is not commonly thought to be a concern; however, it might be best to avoid locating the LMU below a car’s cup holders, or where rain might easily splash into the compartment when a door is opened.
5.2.8 Preventing Accidental or Unauthorized Modification
If you anticipate that fleet drivers or others might interfere with the LMUs once they are installed, take steps to be sure that it is not easy to disconnect the antenna wiring, remove the LMU from its power source, etc. Two common methods are the use of Tamper Proof Sealant or creation of PEG Script to detect power loss or GPS antenna disconnections.
5.3 Installing the LMU in a Vehicle
This section provides instructions for installing an LMU in a vehicle.
Be sure to consider the design decisions described in the previous sections. When you are ready to begin installing the LMU, follow these steps:
5.3.1 Place the LMU unit in the vehicle.
Typically, the LMU should be placed under the passenger seat or dashboard of the vehicle. LMUs with internal antennas should be placed to maximize their GPS performance. A typical location include under the dash close to the front wind-shield.
Attach the LMU to the solid body of the vehicle, not to plastic panels. The LMU can be placed out of sight by removing interior trim and molding to expose available space, then replacing the trim once the LMU is in place.
5.3.2 Connect power, ignition, and ground.
The power input (red wire) must be connected to a constant (un-switched) +12 VDC or +24 VDC supply; preferably, connected directly to the vehicle battery terminal or as close to it as possible. This connection point should be fuse protected to not more than 5 Amps. The ignition input (white wire) must be connected to the vehicle ignition or another appropriate key operated line, such as ACCESSORY, ensuring that power to the ignition wire is available only when the vehicle ignition
10/12/13 LMU-5000 Hardware & Installation Guide - PULS Wiki
https://puls.calamp.com/wiki/LMU-5000_Hardware_%26_Installation_Guide 32/55
is on. The ground line (black wire) must be connected to chassis ground.
Failure to connect these lines in the manner described may result in discharge of the vehicle battery.
For best results, it is strongly recommended that the LMU connection be on its own circuit. Connect the power input directly to the vehicle battery if possible and protect the circuit with an inline fuse. If you must connect through the fuse box, use standard commercial wiring practices to create a permanent installation rather than using press-in fuse clips or other temporary measures.
DO NOT connect the power cable to the LMU at this time.
5.3.3 Place the GPS antenna.
The GPS antenna must have a clear view of the sky. Mount the GPS antenna on the vehicle’s highest point (for example, the roof of a car). Make sure that there are no obstructions close to the antenna that might block the view 360° to the horizon. Air horns lights, vents, etc.. should not block the antenna beyond 5° above the horizon.
Kinks or knots in the antenna cable can prevent the GPS receiver from operating properly. When laying out the antenna cable, take care that the cable is not subjected to crushing or strain.
The ideal location is typically near the center of the vehicle’s roof. However, it is also desirable to locate the cellular antenna as far from the GPS antenna as possible.
GPS Antenna Location
5.3.4 Mount the Comm. Antenna.
When using separate Comm and GPS antennas, it is best to locate the Comm. Antenna at least 3 feet from the GPS antenna. Ensure that the cable is not crushed during installation or normal vehicle operation.
Again, the Comm. Antenna must be located at least 20cm away from vehicle passengers, other personnel, or bystanders in order to comply with FCC radio frequency exposure limits.

5.4 Installation Verification
In many cases it is desirable to verify that an installed LMU-5000™ is working properly. That is, installers should verify that the GPS and communications functions of the LMU-5000™ are working properly before departing the installation site. In more robust cases, some key configuration settings such as the Inbound Address and URL should also be verified.
Note that these processes are all based on issuing AT Commands to the LMU-5000™. It is expected that installers will have access to a serial port expansion cable and a laptop or PDA capable of a terminal connection. Alternatively, an SMS message can be sent to an LMU-5000™ to obtain its current status.
5.4.1 Comm Verification
Installers should first verify that the LMU-5000™ has been acquired and has registered to the wireless network. This may be verified in one of two ways. First, installers may look at the Comm LED (i.e., the one closest to the SMC antenna connector). If this LED is solid, then the LMU has registered to the network and established a data session.
If the LED is not visible, then Comm may be verified using an AT Command:
ATIC
Depending on the wireless network being used something similar to what is shown below will be displayed. It is important to verify that 'Yes' values are displayed at the top for Data and Network registration and the correct APN is displayed.

10/12/13 LMU-5000 Hardware & Installation Guide - PULS Wiki
https://puls.calamp.com/wiki/LMU-5000_Hardware_%26_Installation_Guide 35/55
network operator should be contacted for further troubleshooting.
Please note that it may take several seconds (or longer) for the LMU-5000™ to communicate with the modem and acquire the wireless network.
5.4.2 GPS Verification
The next step is to verify that the GPS receiver is seeing enough satellites to obtain a valid GPS position. Again, installers have two choices on how to perform this verification. First, like the Comm Verification, there is a GPS status LED (i.e., the one closest to the SMA connector). If this LED is solid, then the LMU has found GPS service.
If the LED is not visible then GPS service may be verified using an AT Command:
AT$APP GPS?
The response should be similar to:
Lat=3304713, Lon=-11727730, Alt=0 Hdg=113 Spd=0 3D-RTIME HDOP=130 nSats=7
Installers are looking for the 3D-RTIME setting along with a valid Lat, Long pair (i.e. something other than 0). If the GPS receiver does not have a valid lock within 2-3 minutes, installers should check antenna placement (see the Installation Notes section for placement suggestions), the antenna connector and that the antenna has a clear view of the sky. For further troubleshooting, installers should contact CalAmp Support (M2MSupport@CalAmp.com)
5.4.3 Inbound Verification
The last item to verify is that the LMU-5000™ is sending data to the correct server. In general, this is a two­step process that will need the aid of an observer on the back end. That is, a technician will have to be logged in so they can monitor data coming into the backend mapping/vehicle management application.
First, verify that the LMU-5000™ is using the correct Inbound IP address by using:
AT$APP INBOUND?
The response should be similar to:
INBOUND LMD INBOUND 0 ADDR ddd.ddd.ddd.ddd:ppppp * INBOUND 0 URL myURL.myCompany.com
10/12/13 LMU-5000 Hardware & Installation Guide - PULS Wiki
https://puls.calamp.com/wiki/LMU-5000_Hardware_%26_Installation_Guide 36/55
INBOUND 1 ADDR 0.0.0.0:20500 INBOUND 1 URL INBOUND 2 ADDR 0.0.0.0:20500 INBOUND 3 ADDR 0.0.0.0:20500
The installer will need to verify with a backend technician that the, URL (myURL.myCompany.com ), IP address (ddd.ddd.ddd.ddd) and port (<ppppp>) are correct.
The second step is to verify that the LMU-5000™ is sending data. The best way to do this is to force the LMU-5000™ to send in an unacknowledged Event Report (i.e., its current GPS location) with the following command:
AT$APP PEG SUNRPT 255
The LMU-5000™ will respond with: OK
The backend monitor must then be contacted to confirm that they received an Event Report with Event Code
255.
Assuming that all three sections have passed, the installation can be considered to be complete.
5.4.4 Verification via SMS
The current Comm, GPS and Inbound status of a GSM LMU can be obtained via SMS provided you have access to an SMS capable phone or PDA.
Using your handset, send the following SMS Message to the LMU:
!R0
Within a few minutes, the LMU should return a response in the following format:
APP: <App ID> <Firmware Version> COM:<RSSI> [./d/D][./a/A][./L][IP address] [<APN>] GPS:[Antenna <Short/Open/Off>] | [No Time Sync] | [<FixStatus> <Sat Count>] INP:<inputs states> <vehicle voltage> MID:<mobile ID> <mobile ID type> INB:<inbound IP address>:<inbound port> <Inbound Protocol (LMD/LMX)>

If the character ‘D’ is present, it indicates the LMU had a data session established when it responded to the status request. For the 8-Bit product line an upper case ‘D’ indicates both the Inbound and Maintenance sockets are ready. The lower case ‘d’ indicates that only the Maintenance socket is ready. A ‘.’ indicates no sockets are ready.
o [./a/A]:
This field indicates if the LMU has received an Acknowledgement from the Inbound server. This field will be empty if the LMU has never received an ACK. The lower case ‘a’ will be present if it has received an ACK since the last cold boot (i.e. power cycle) but not the last warm boot (App Restart or Sleep). The upper case ‘A’ will be present if the LMU has received an ACK since the last warm boot. A ‘.’ Indicates no acknowledgement has been received.
o [./L]:
This field indicates if the LMU’s log is currently active. An ‘L’ indicates that the log is currently in use (i.e. one or more records have been stored) where a ‘.’ indicates the log is inactive.
o [IP Address]:
This is an optional field if and is only present if the LMU has established a valid data session. This field will contain the current IP address of the LMU as assigned by the wireless network. Note that if you see a value of 192.168.0.0, this is an indication that the LMU has not been able to establish a data session.
o [<APN>]
The current Access Point Name in use by a GSM LMU.
GPS:
o [Antenna <Short/Open/Off>]:
This field, if present, indicates a problem with the LMU’s GPS antenna. A value of Short indicates that the antenna cable has likely been crushed. A value of Open indicates that the antenna cable is either cut or disconnected. A value of Off indicates that the LMU’ GPS receiver is off.

6.5 Activation (EV-DO)
Before activation of the cellular module, you must contact your service provider to activate a contract. The carrier will need the ESN of the cellular module, which can be found on the LMU5000 home page or on a label on the outside of the unit.
You must specify you need a “PACKET DATA” contract to your carrier. The Carrier will provide you a “Mobile Directory Number” and possibly an Activation Code (for Sprint only).
EV-DO Activation Page
Command: This is a carrier specific command used when performing an OTASP. Its default is *22899 which
is the Verizon OTA command
Activation Type: Select the correct activation type depending on the carrier
OTASP: Over the Air Service Provisioning, used to activate a Verizon Contract IOTA: Internet Over the Air, used to activate a Sprint contract
Once you have entered the command and selected the activation type, hit “Submit” to activate the device.
This will take a few minutes, if it does not work the first time, you may need to manually enter the MDN and MIN numbers (these are the same numbers and are provided by the service carrier) in the boxes above and retry.

LAN Settings Page
Ethernet IP address: LAN IP of the LMU5000. This address is entered into a browser if a LOCAL
PC wants to login to the LMU5000. Warning: Changing this value will cause the user to lose connection to the LMU5000. They must enter the new address in a browser to reconnect. If the user forgets or makes a type entering new the new value, it can be difficult to reconnect to the device.
DNS Server1 IP Address: Except in special cases, this should match the Ethernet IP address DNS Server2 IP Address: This is used if a second DNS server is available. DHCP: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, This function assigns IP addresses in a specified range
to all PCs connected to or joining the LAN. DHCP Start/End Range: Sets the range of IP addresses assigned to the PCs. The user can limit the # of devices allowed on the network by minimizing this range. Warning: The addresses in this range should be the same as the Ethernet IP except for the last three digits
Warning: The ethernet IP should not be in the DHCP range. DHCP Lease Time: This timer dictates how long a device on the LAN can hold an IP address. In
almost all cases this should be set to the maximum (and default value) of 86400. Setting this value too low will cause network connectivity problems.

6.9.1 Remote Administration
Remote Configure: Default is “Enable” this can be disabled to add security. Admin Password: Set the password for BOTH remote login and local login. The password must be
entered twice for the password to change. Incoming Port: Change the port of incoming requests. This will not usually need to be changed unless it conflicts with other devices on the network.
Note: Changing this remotely will cause the user to lose contact with the LMU5000. They will have to login using the new port number to re-establish connection.
Warning: Users can be logged into a single unit both locally and remotely at the same time. Changes made on one end will not be reflected on the other unless the webpage is refreshed.
Warning: There is no way to remotely reset the user name and password at this point. If a user changes the user name or password and forgets them, the unit must be returned to the manufacturer to reset the password.
6.9.2 Disabling DHCP
When DHCP is enabled, anyone can plug a PC into the LMU5000 and use it to browse the internet. This can cause security problems and add expense to the users data contract, to control what PCs can connect to the LMU5000, perform the following steps.
Disable DHCP on the LAN settings page. Note: This will also disable DNS Masquerading.
WARNING: Disabling DHCP will wipe out all values in the DHCP and DNS sections. If the user disables DHCP by accident or needs to re-implement DHCP and does not know
what the previous values were, they will have trouble getting the correct values. To improve security, change the Ethernet IP of the LMU5000 to something other than the default.
WARNING: If the DHCP is disabled, and the user forgets the ethernet IP of the device,
the user or support personal may not be able to login to the device. The device will have
to be returned to the mfg to have factory resets restored. On the network setting page of each PC set the following
IP address: Set a unique address on the same subnet as the LMU5000
Subnet Mask: 255:255:255:0
Default Gateway: Ethernet IP of LMU5000
Preferred DNS: Ethernet IP of LMU5000

Enter Port Forwarding Configuration Information.
Port Fowarding Enable: Must enable to allow port forwarding. Default is disabled. Mapping number: Generic number assigned by this user to this route. Protocol: TCP or UDP, is driven by the protocol used by the third party device Source IP address: Enter the IP address of the remote PC connecting to the device (this
should only be done if a single PC with a STATIC IP is accessing the device, or enter 0.0.0.0 (wildcard) to allow all external devices to access the device. Incoming port: Set port of incoming request. This can be any non-conflicting port. It can be the same as the Destination port.
Destination IP address: IP address of third party device. Destination port: Port of the third party device. This will be assigned to the device by the third
party manufacturer and should be in the user manual of the device.
Warning: The password protection on the LMU5000 does not protect logging into a third party device. Usually the device will require its own password protection, but this needs to be confirmed by the user if password protection is required.
Hit “Add” when done configuring the route. The route will be displayed at the bottom of the page. You can add other routes as long as they have a unique mapping number and port number. Once the route is added you can enter the following on a remote PC to access the third party device.

9 Regulatory Information
Human Exposure Compliance Statement
Pursuant to 47 CFR § 24.52 of the FCC Rules and Regulations, personal communications services (PCS) equipment is subject to the radio frequency radiation exposure requirements specified in § 1.1307(b), §
2.1091 and § 2.1093, as appropriate.
CalAmp DataCom Inc. certifies that it has determined that the LMU-5000™ complies with the RF hazard requirements applicable to broadband PCS equipment operating under the authority of 47 CFR Part 24, Subpart E of the FCC Rules and Regulations. This determination is dependent upon installation, operation and use of the equipment in accordance with all instructions provided.
The LMU-5000™ is designed for and intended to be used in fixed and mobile applications. “Fixed” means that the device is physically secured at one location and is not able to be easily moved to another location. “Mobile” means that the device is designed to be used in other than fixed locations and generally in such a way that a separation distance of at least 20 cm is normally maintained between the transmitter’s antenna and the body of the user or nearby persons. The LMU-5000™ is not designed for or intended to be used in portable applications (within 20 cm of the body of the user) and such uses are strictly prohibited.
To ensure that the LMU-5000™ complies with current FCC regulations limiting both maximum RF output power and human exposure to radio frequency radiation, a separation distance of at least 20 cm must be maintained between the unit’s antenna and the body of the user and any nearby persons at all times and in all applications and uses. Additionally, in mobile applications, maximum antenna gain must not exceed 3 dBi.
