2. Antennas GSM, GSM/LTE & GPS positions (M40x) GPS POSITION EXAMPLES: At the bottom of the a-pillar. OVERT GSM (THERMAL) Behind the dash. COVERT GSM & GSM/LTE POSITION EXAMPLES: On the the a-pillar trim. OVERT GSM (CLASSIC) Behind a panel. Dual Antenna (GSM/GPS) (M400/3) POSITION The dual antenna (GSM/GPS) should only be installed overtly on the windscreen. In the same way as the overtly installed GSM antenna. You must maintain 1.2 inches (3 cm) between any metal and the dual antenna.
12. CAN (Optional) The MICHELIN Connected Fleet CAN sensors are unintrusive to the vehicle CAN and have read only functionality. This means that the CAN sensors can’t input any data on to the network that might cause issues with the vehicle. Ignition MUST be off while connecting the CAN clips. The clips come in two varieties: • CAN, white label Sonde SCN4 • J1587, green label Sonde SCN4 Depending on the vehicle make and model you might require one or two CAN sensors. Most vehicles only require one clip.
13. HMI (Optional) Panic/Alert Button Buzzer Driver ID with RFID Privacy Button FEATURES The HMI or Lightbar features the following: • Driver Identification by RFID tags • Panic/Alert button • Privacy button • Driver behaviour bar graph with 18 LED Driver feedback • Buzzer, for login reminder and driver behaviour alerts LEDs INSTALLATION The HMI is installed by pre-applied adhesive to the back of the lightbar. The area must be clean.
14. Cable routing LOOMING Any excess cabling should be loomed up tidily in a figure eight, and tied together with cable ties and tape. Excess cabling should not be looped. All MICHELIN Connected Fleet cables should be gathered up and loomed up into one loom. Best Practice ROUTING To minimise electrical interference the MICHELIN Connected Fleet wiring should be run along the existing vehicle wiring or the metal structure of the vehicle.
15. Unit Mounting X To achieve optimal performance, and for security reasons, the M4xx must be firmly secured, using cable ties. To a solid plastic or metal structure in the vehicle. CAN X GPS GSM/GPRS Z Default Y Init SECURING THE UNIT The M4xx has an integrated 3 axes accelerometer, which is used to confirm harsh driving events and register impact force in the event of a crash.
16. I/O Protection and Warranty/ Tamper Seals ATTACHING THE I/O PROTECTION CLIPS WARRANTY/TAMPER STICKERS Warranty/Tamper stickers must be added to the M4xx SIM card slot, I/O Shield, and the fuses on the power loom.
17. Commissioning MASTER MANAGER MOBILE Before you connect the power to the M4xx you need to start the commissioning process. A short guide will follow, please refer to the MMO guide for a more in depth version. VEHICLE INFORMATION You will need the following vehicle information to complete the commission: • Registration • Chassis number • Make/model/version CONFIGURATION During the commission you will have to select and send out a configuration.
18. Input/Output (Optional) INPUT COMPATIBILITY A variety of inputs can be connected to the M4xx via the power loom. Inputs are connected to check the status of a device, for example; PTO, door switches, reverse, and beacons etc. 3 (4 if you count ignition) wires can be configured as follows: • TOR - (On/Off control) standard digital voltage reading (0 or 1) • CAD - Analog voltage reading • TOR/CAD - Digital reading translated according to the thresholds up and down.
19. Tachofresh (Optional) TACHOFRESH Tachofresh is the M4xx tachograph reading functionality. This page shows the wiring schematic, there is a full lenght guide available here, including the commissioning process. COMPATIBILITY Only digital Tachographs are compatible with the M4xx Tachofresh solution. It will not work with analog, paper disc, tachographs.
20. Gritters (Optional) COMPATIBILITY The M4xx is compatible with most gritters from the following manufacturers: • ECON, specific guide available here. • Schmidt, specific guide available here. • Giletta/Buscher • Romaquip • Epoke For some gritter heads the manufacturer needs to fit/adjust the output connection that the M4xx connects to. This should be done before the job is booked.
21. Temperature (Optional) COMPATIBILITY The M4xx is compatable with temperature readings both from MICHELIN Connected Fleet’s own hardware temperature probes and from various temperature controllers and data loggers. The firmware of the M4xx must be 1.8 or above to be compatible with Transcan. WIRED PROBES WIRING Hardware temperature, via probes, is wired to the M4xx power loom inputs.
22. Device Overview LED SEQUENCE TROUBLESHOOTING LED FIXED FLASH FAST FLASH SLOW FLASH OFF • CAN is disabled • CAN is enabled but there is no CAN patch • Sleep Mode No satellite is detected GREEN CAN CYCLE (20 sec) The OBU has a CAN patch but is not receiving the correct data from the vehicle. N/A The OBU has not taken the CAN patch, yet. The OBU has a CAN patch and is receiving the correct data from the vehicle. GREEN GPS CYCLE (20 sec) Indicates that there is an ignition feed to the unit.
