1 Introduction 1.1 Description The MT 3050 is an integrated device for the Usage Based Insurance (UBI), telematics, and fleet management markets. It has a rugged plastic housing, and it includes a disconnect alert feature using an in-device backup battery. It is available in GSM/GPRS, 1xRTT, and HSDPA versions. The MT 3050 contains an internal GPS, a cellular antenna, a J1962 compliant OBDII connector, a micro USB connector, and 3 LED indicators.
The MT 3050 has a printed label on the top side of the device. The figure below shows the information included on the label.

2.3 On-Board Diagnostics Overview An On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) system controls engine functions and serves as the diagnostic control network of the vehicle. All cars built and sold in the United States since 1996 must be equipped with the newer OBDII system. The Enfora MT 3050 connects to a vehicle's OBDII port and monitors the OBDII system using a variety of communication protocols.
3 Features And Functions 3.1 GPS GPS functionality includes: l l l l l NMEA update with all data points Enfora Binary Packets Buffered GPS message feature Geo-fencing Virtual odometer 3.2 LEDs The MT 3050 includes LEDs to indicate OBDII, NETWORK, and GPS status. The following figure shows the MT 3050 connector and LEDs. Figure: 4 - MT 3050 Connectors and LEDs The following table describes the LED operation.
3.3 Power The MT 3050 requires 9-16 VDC minimum 2 amps input power. Pin 16 on the 16-Pin IO connector is the positive power input, and pin 4 is the ground. 3.
3.7 New Event Reporting The MT 3050 has additional event reporting not supported by other Enfora products. For general event reporting information and for detailed information about these new events refer to the MT 3050 AT Command Document (GSM2374AT001). 3.7.1 Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) The VIN is used as a unique identifier which is sent at first power up with heartbeat messages and with events.
3.7.3 Vehicle Speed If configured for vehicle speed alerts and the vehicle moves faster than one of the three configurable thresholds (e.g., 70 MPH), then a vehicle speed alert is triggered. The following AT Command example sets the vehicle speed threshold at 1 to 112 KPH (~70MPH). When the threshold is exceeded for 10 seconds, an input event is triggered. This event will clear when the vehicle speed is reduced to 104KPH (~65MPH). AT$OBDSPD=1,112,10,104 3.7.
3.7.7 Idle Time Reporting An idle time event is triggered when the vehicle’s engine is running without the vehicle moving (i.e., velocity less than 3 KPH) for a defined period of time in seconds (e.g., 300 seconds). The alert is cleared when the vehicle speed exceeds another speed and time threshold. Both the violation and clearing of the alert are reported if configured.
The following AT Command example sets the rapid deceleration threshold #1 to .5Gs. If this threshold is exceeded for 1 second, then an input event is triggered. Keeping the deceleration below this threshold for 30 seconds will clear this event. AT$OBDDCL=1,500,1,3 3.7.11 Motion Detection Motion alerts for vehicles can be configured to communicate that a vehicle is being towed.
3.7.15 Up Up accelerometer events can be triggered when the threshold is exceeded as determined by the accelerometer in milli-Gs (e.g., 0.75) for a defined period of time in seconds (e.g., 30 seconds). The following AT command example sets the Up accelerometer threshold to 1.2Gs. If this threshold is exceeded for 1 second, trigger the input event. This event will clear in 30 seconds when the acceleration is below this threshold. AT$OBDAUP=1,1200,1,30 3.7.
Figure: 6 - Micro USB Cable 3.9 Additional Software Features 3.9.1 AT Commands Over SMS A user can send AT commands to the MT 3050 via SMS. Please refer to Enfora Application Note ENF0000AN012 - AT Commands Over SMS for details.. 3.9.2 Store/Transmit Event Data The user can configure the MT 3050 to store event-generated data in its internal memory to be sent over the air to a remote server. This feature can be enabled or disabled using the AT$MSGLOGEN command.
3.9.4 Reporting Frequency The minimum reporting frequency of the device is as follows: l l Periodic reporting is limited to max of 1 per 6 seconds. The general reporting interval is 1 message every 2 seconds.
4 Installation 4.1 SIM Access (GSM2378 And UMT2212 Only) SIM Installation procedures include: l l l Opening Inserting SIM Closing The GSM2378 and UMT2212 versions of the MT 3050 include an onboard SIM carrier. There is no external access to the SIM. The RTT221 (CDMA) version of the MT 3050 does not use a SIM and should not be opened. 4.1.1 Opening The Device To prevent damaging the device, we highly recommend that you use the Plastic Lever (Enfora part number ASA-3000-0001) when opening the MT 3050.
2. Repeat step 1 for the other corner. Figure: 8 - MT 3050 With Cover Unsnapped 3. Carefully slide the cover off the device.
4.1.2 Inserting The SIM Insert the SIM using the following procedure: The SIM card is not provided with the MT 3050 device. The SIM must be obtained from the GSM/GPRS service provider and must be provisioned by the operator for data. Always take care to protect the SIM. Without the SIM installed, the MT 3050 modem is not able to communicate on the network. 1. Using the correct tool, carefully remove the device cover to access the internal SIM holder as previously described. 2.
4.2 Activating The Device With CDMA devices, the user must contact the service provider to activate the device. They will need to provide the MEID of the device to the provider. Once the provider has acknowledged that the device is ready to activate, the user will then be required to send an activation string to the network. Send the activation string: AT+CDV*22899. This will initiate a call with the network. A successful call will last approximately 40 seconds.
Figure: 12 - Typical OBDII Socket Location The device starts the accelerometer auto-calibration process immediately after the device is installed and the vehicle's ignition is turned on. 4.
Failure to follow the process below could cause an undesired behavior of the motion feature. Failure to drive straight on level ground during the automatic calibration may reduce the accuracy of the accelerometer and have an adverse impact on events triggered by accelerometer readings. 1. Make sure the vehicle is parked on level ground prior to installing the MT 3050. 2. Drive the vehicle in a straight path on level ground during the automatic calibration.

5 Network Test Procedure Use the following instructions to configure the Enfora modem to communicate with the Enfora test server. 5.1 Configuring The Modem For Test Server Connection To configure the modem for server interoperability, consider the following: l l l l Most configurations are Mobile Originate only. Mobile modem initiates a conversation with a remote server before it can talk to the modem. IP addresses are dynamically assigned and can change. Some IP addresses are NAT and are non-routable.
5.2 Verifying Server Connectivity For the following tests, ensure that you have Java Runtime installed on your computer. To install Java Runtime, please visit the Java website here: http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp 1. Start a web browser and enter the following URL: http://apitest.enfora.com/UDPAPP/ Figure: 31 - apitest.enfora.com/UDPAPP/ Window 2. Enter the name used in the Modem ID (MDMID) command in the box. 3. Select Connect.
4. Select the tab with the modem name (My_MT_Test). Within approximately 60 seconds you should see a wakeup message in the window. Selecting the Clear button will erase the contents from the (ASCII Data) window. 5. Enter the following command in the Command/Data text box: ATI 6. Click on the Submit button. 7. Verify that you see the modem response: Enfora, Inc. If so, you have successfully configured the modem to talk with the server.
6 Accesories The following accessories are available for the MT 3050: Part Name Part Number Plastic Lever ASA-3000-0001 Backup Battery TBD 6.1 Backup Battery The backup battery's primary function in the MT 3050 is to provide the ability for a user to be notified when the device is removed from the vehicle. Input Event 63 can be used to trigger an output event that can be configured in the same manner as the other output events. If the modem is off (power savings), it will be turned on.
